Lucky Birds Slots
Join some colourful feathered friends in this novelty slot machine by Playson software. There are 5 reels, 10 paylines and a whole load of winning potential thanks to some special gameplay elements like a wild symbol and free spin triggering scatter symbol. In fact, spin this slot machine the right way and you could send your wins flying with a 180,000-credit jackpot.
Rainbow Rainforest
Lucky Birds takes place in the canopy of the Amazon rainforest, where life is full of vibrancy and vigour. By its very nature, this slot machine presents a flamboyant array of flying characters, all of which are presented in impressive graphical detail above a stunning backdrop of a dramatic tropical landscape. The reel symbols include many birds of paradise, including cockatoos, cockatiels, parakeets, parrots, and toucans – so you can expect to see a rainbow of different coloured feathers on the reels. Even the generic playing card symbols are brightly presented along with different exotic fruits and strange flowers like berries, kiwis and mangoes. What's more, all of the bird images will perform little animations when they line up in winning rows, perhaps by waving a feathered hand or chirping their beaks.
If all of the colour and novelty action isn't enough to help you escape, then perhaps the music of Lucky Birds will. Because not only does the game feature loads of chirping birds, but it also plays a Latin style musical score to transport players deep into the heart of the Amazonian landscape.
Wild Bonuses
As well as teeming with visual quality, this slot machine is also offers plenty of extra gameplay action thanks to a couple of special symbols. The first of these symbols is a wild icon, as represented by the toucan bird. This symbol not only helps to make winning lines by substituting for other symbols, but it will also double the size of the wins when it does.
However, the wild toucan won't replace the golden egg icon. But that's OK really, because this is a scatter symbol that doesn't need to appear on a payline to award wins with a total bet multiplier worth up to 500x. And if that's not exciting enough, then three or more scatters on the reels at once will initiate a series of 15 free spins with all resulting wins tripled.
Watch Your Wins Soar
You don't need to learn how to fly in order to master this gambling game. All you need to do is determine how many paylines you want to have in play – anywhere between 1 and 10 – and then decide on the size of the bet you wish to place per line. The wagering options follow the usual Playson slot machine pattern of 1, 2, 5, 6, 8 and 20 credits.
Once you have calibrated your bets, you are ready to take off. Simply spin the reel one go at a time or set up some consecutive turns with the “Autoplay” feature, then sit back and wait for a matching sequence of symbols to align. The smallest five of a kind win is a 100x line bet multiplier, awarded for finding a full line of low end card values such as 9, 10, J and Q. A and K, on the other hand, both pay out up to 125x.
A small purple parakeet will award 400x when five fly into formation while the red and green parrots will both fetch up to 250x. The orange and blue birds both go for 750x but by far the best symbol of all is the wild toucan, which offers the most lucrative multiplier of 9,000x. So, if you were to line up five wild toucans in a row after placing a 20 credit line bet, you will be rewarded with a very wild jackpot of 180,000 credits.
Every Win Could Be a Jackpot
We hate to break it to you, but not every spinner is going to come anywhere near close to that ultimate jackpot prize. At least not with every spin of the reels, especially considering the relatively small payout values of the lower end icons. However, punters can turn any win into a jackpot thanks to a double or nothing gamble game feature. It's as easy as guessing whether a turned over playing card is red or black, but do you have the guts to risk everything on a 50/50 chance?
Alive with Sound and Colour
This slot machine has a modern presentation which puts many other tropical themed slots to shame, though there are other good tropical games out there such as Tropical Juice. The overall theme of the game is held together in all sensory aspects from the visual vigour to the liveliness of the music. Admittedly, there are games out there with more unique bonus elements. But then again, it's difficult to complain when the wild symbol doubles the prize and the free spins triple all wins.
