Lucky Links Slot

Graphics

The graphical style JFTW utilises in Lucky Links is along similar lines to its Deco Diamonds slot. Classic. Our high-paying game symbols include Acorns, Horseshoes, Shamrocks and Triple 7s, with the Lucky Links logo taking the biscuit as the game’s top-paying symbol.

Glistening gems in the forms of Hearts, Spades, Diamonds and Cubs bring up the rear as low-paying symbols, all of which come as stacked symbols. Winning lines illuminate with neon lights of various colours, effortlessly mixing classic with modern.

Gameplay

As we hunt down winning lines we notice that some symbols are contained in gold edging. This trim will see these symbols link together if two or more symbols appear adjacent to each other.

These reels will then remain linked and locked in the game’s Lucky Links feature, while the other reels respin. If more matching symbols land adjacently, they too will lock and link together. And so the feature continues until no more matching symbols land, or until all five reels are full with Lucky Links stacks.

With each respin that has the potential to add an extra linked reel, the reels light up with promising glows that ramp up the excitement and expectation.

Verdict

With only the Lucky Links feature to aim for as a bonus round, we’d better be pretty enamoured with the base game if this slot adventure is to be a lengthy one.

JFTW uses lights and sound to great effect in that respect, and with stacked symbols in a Pays Both Ways pay structure we have enough to keep our interest fixed.

What slots fan doesn’t dream of landing scores of high-paying symbol combos? JFTW and Microgaming’s Lucky Links slot offers precisely those sorts of wins in regular abundance, doing plenty to help us achieve those dreams.
