Choosing Which Free Spins Option to Take

There are plenty of different free spins awarding slot games that you can play online, and whilst some of them will award you with a set number of free spins when three or more of the scatter symbols spin into view, some may award you with a higher number of free spins when you spin in four or five scatter symbols as opposed to just three of them.

However, we have seen quite a number of slots offering different free spins options, whenever a set of scatter symbols spin in and this will require a player to pick just which one of the available options they can then play off.

In this slot playing guide we are going to enlighten you on just which type of free spins feature game you should select based on your own unique slot playing strategy. You really do need to pay attention to this guide if you want the chance of the biggest and best returns from any free spins game you trigger.

Low and High Variance Free Spin Bonus Game Options

One of Microgaming’s hugely popular slot games is their Dolphin Tail Slot which is a 40 optional payline slot. When you spin in three or more of the scatter symbols in view you will be given no fewer than five different ways for your free spins to be played off.

You need to decide just which type of risk factor you wish to have attached to those free spins, for you are going to be able to pick 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 free spins and each option will award one of three set multipliers as those free spins are playing off.

If you are playing the maximum number of pay lines when the bonus game triggers and want the chance of some mega sized winning payouts then opt for the high variance free spins option which is the 5 free spins which will award a multiplier on each winning free spins of either x10, x15 or x20.

If on the other hand you want a low risk and low variance type of free spins bonus feature round, or you are playing with only a small number of pay lines activated and in play then opt for the maximum number of free spins which is 25. For when those free spins are playing off you will get more chances of spinning in a winning combination and the multiplier values in play will be x 2, x3 or x5.

Stick to One Free Spins Option

One way that you could play slot games on which multiple different free spins bonus game options are available once that bonus round is triggered and awarded to you is by always picking the same option.

By doing this you are going to find that over your playing career you will get both huge paying free spins awarded payouts as well as your share of low to mid sized winning payouts. Take for example the Microgaming Loaded Slot Game this slot, when three or more scatter symbols spin in, will give you the option of playing off 12, 16 or 24 which come with multiplier values of x4, x3 and x2 respectively.

By always selecting the same type of free spins bonus game to play off you will experience all manner of different free spins rounds playing off, some high paying and some low paying. The benefit of always rigidly sticking to playing off the same bonus game is that you will not be kicking yourself if you feel you have selected the wrong one and should have selected another option as it may have awarded you with a larger payout than the one you achieved!

Playing Slots Offering Random Number of Free Spins

There is another category of slot game that you will find available online and these may appeal to you more than the two types of free spins awarding slot games named above. When playing at Microgaming Software Powered Casinos you are going to find a some slots such as the Multi Line Harvey’s Slot Game, and when playing this a set of free spins can be awarded but only when the two scatter symbols spin in on reels two and four in one single base game spin.

What makes playing this particular slot so very different from other slot games is that you are never going to know how many free spins you will get until the bonus game has been triggered! On top of that and to add another level of excitement to playing this slot a randomly awarded multiplier symbol will revealed if anyone of your free spins results in one or more winning combinations spinning in.

The only sound and sensible advise we can pass on to you should you prefer playing this type of slot is to play all of the games pay lines, for that will guarantee you get the maximum winning chances irrespective of the number of free spins or the multiplier value awarded to you.

Summary

Always be prepared to take the occasional risk when you are playing online slot games, more so when you are playing a slot offering one of several different options via the games free spins bonus round. Whilst many players will opt for the safe option of the maximum number of free spins on the lowest multiplier values, by opting for the lowest number of free spins on the highest multiplier value you could often see some mega sized winning payouts spinning in and awarded to you.
