Lucky Twins Link & Win Review
Here at Slot Gods, we love a Link & Win mechanic, and we know that it’s equally popular with many of our site visitors too.
Slingshot Studios has joined forces with Microgaming to produce a range of Link & Win slots across different themes, with the emphasis firmly on Oriental culture for this particular game.
Design
According to Chinese culture, twins are particularly auspicious, making them the perfect subject for an online slot game. And the theme is beautifully presented by the design team at Slingshot Studios, featuring plenty of red and gold, as you might expect.
Game symbols include Chinese coins and gold ingots, as well as fans and firecrackers. There’s nothing we haven’t seen before, but it’s all been well executed, making for a game that looks exceptionally inviting – especially with those four Jackpot prizes prominently displayed alongside the reels!
Gameplay
Decide on your coin value, then choose how many coins to include with each spin. The game’s paytable is dynamic, so you’ll be able to check on potential payouts before making up your mind about how much to wager.
All symbols, apart from Wilds and Scatters, have the ability to land in Power Stacks on the reels during the base game, giving more chances to win.
Link & Win feature
Land at least 6 Coin symbols to activate the Link & Win feature, which begins with 3 respins. Only blanks and Coins appear on the reels, with Coins remaining Sticky until the end of the feature.
Landing any new Coins will reset the Respin Counter back to 3, giving you even more chances to put together a big prize payout.
Free Spins
Land three or more gold ingot Scatters to activate the free spins bonus round, with 10 free spins.
Throughout this feature, Wilds and Coins can appear on the reels in Power Stacks, giving the potential to win bigger cash payouts, or even to trigger the Link & Win bonus round!
Win potential
Lucky Twins Link & Win is a highly volatile game, so although there are some big prizes available, you’re likely to need a generous bankroll to trigger them – although nothing is ever guaranteed when it comes to playing slots!
During the Link & Win feature, Coin values are worth up to 15x your bet, with all Coin values added together at the end of the bonus to come up with your final prize payout. This is where you can land one of the Jackpot prizes too, and if you fill the entire grid with 20 Coins, you’ll instantly win the Grand Jackpot!
- Mini Jackpot – 40x
- Minor Jackpot – 100x
- Major Jackpot – 1,000x
- Grand Jackpot – 5,000x
Our Verdict
Oriental-themed slots tend to come with higher volatility than most, making them a particular favourite for high-roller players. That 6.000x max payout is a little on the low side though, but we don’t think that’s going to stop players from at least giving the game a try.
But there’s a lot for any type of slots fan to enjoy when spinning up the reels of Lucky Twins Link & Win if you’re bankroll can take the strain! Why not try the game out in demo mode, to see just how far your gaming budget might take you?
