Hold It Casino Slot Machine
Nothing quite beats a nice and simple pub fruity slot machine. With 4 reels, 10 lines and some classic fruity symbols, this game by Novomatic software gives retro slot machine fans plenty of spinning excitement to get stuck into. What's more, Hold It Casino offers a nifty little hold feature with wild win potentials and an ultimate jackpot of 400,000 credits.
Classic spins
If you're in the market for some good old AWP slot machine action, then you won't have to look much further than this pub fruity from Novomatic. Hold It Casino offers players the chance to win prizes by spinning the 4 reels and lining up a variety of different reel symbols from the classic slot machine archive. In fact, there is a veritable feast of fruits on show with cherries, oranges, lemons, plums, strawberries, grapes and watermelons. The game designers have even thrown in a few four leaf clovers for good luck and a few golden bells to ring in those big wins.
The game's most coveted icon, however, is the “Hold It” logo. Why? Because this symbol is not only the most rewarding icon in the game in terms of payout value, but it is also the most exciting since it will cause the slot machine's hold feature to activate. That essentially means that, should the game's logo appear on any reel, it will hold that reel in position for the next spin as long as no winning sequence is found. What's more, the logo icon itself acts as the game's wild symbol, meaning that it will effectively substitute for all other symbols to fill in the gaps of winning combinations. Very useful indeed!
Easy on the eye
Visually speaking, Hold It Casino isn't exactly at the very cutting edge of slot machine design. In fact, the game presents a very rudimentary set of fruit icons upon the reels, showing two-dimensional images with cartoon like aesthetics. Nonetheless, the overall appearance is bright and bold with lots of warm oranges and yellows to help heat up the spinning action as players place their bets.
Fruity wins
When it comes to placing those bets, spinners will simply have to change the game's total bet value. That is because all of the 10 paylines involved are permanently fixed over the 4 reels in horizontal and diagonal formations. That said, there are plenty of wagering options to choose from with total bets that start from as small as 40 credits and go up as high as 10,000 credits. Therefore, players of all betting strategies have ample scope to spin this slot machine at a price which suits them.
Once the reels are set in motion, players will simply have to wait until three matching icons line up on any of the paylines from left to right. Such an event will award a multiplier value to the total bet, as shown in the table below:
Double your wins with a gamble
Double your wins with a gamble So, with a total bet of 10,000 credits, punters can hope to line up wins as big as 400,000 credits by finding three matched “Hold It” logos on a payline. However, there is another way to reach that 40x total bet jackpot in this retro style slot machine, and it all comes down to a simple 50/50 gamble.
After every win during the base game, players will notice that a red hearts icon and a black spades icon flash interchangeably. All that bettors have to do is decide which icon will be lit up by selecting the red and black buttons on the game's control panel. If they guess correctly, then they will double the wins from the triggering spin and they will be given the chance to gamble again. However, if they guess incorrectly, all of the original wins and any gamble wins will be lost.
Players can keep on gambling until they reach the maximum gamble limit, which is 40x the value of the total bet.
One for the retro spinner
Hold It Casino is far from being the most extravagant slot machine in terms of design or extra bonus gameplay features. Even the game's paytable isn't particularly enticing considering that there are only 10 paylines in play. However, retro slot machine fans will surely find some worthwhile spins to be spun with a special hold feature and wild win potential.
