How the calculation works
A slot game modelled on Japanese pachislot machines. You start with 500 virtual medals, bet 3 per game, pull the lever and stop the three reels. The winning combination is decided by a draw the moment you start; the timing of your stops does not change it. When BIG or REG is won, the GOGO lamp lights. Combinations and odds per game BIG (7-7-7, 240 medals): 1 in 271.6 at setting 1 to 1 in 229.1 at setting 6 REG (BAR-BAR-BAR, 96 medals): 1 in 439.6 at setting 1 to 1 in 292.6 at setting 6 Grape (8 medals) 1 in 6, Replay (a free game, worth 3) 1 in 7.3, Cherry (2) 1 in 35, Bell (8) 1 in 300 From these odds, the theoretical return rate is about 97.7% at setting 1, 100.3% at setting 3 and 106.8% at setting 6.
Worked example
A guide for 1000 games at setting 1 Medals bet: 3000 โ returned: about 2930 (about 70 down) Combined bonus odds (BIG + REG): about 1 in 167.9 At setting 6, the combined odds are about 1 in 128.5 and 1000 games are expected to finish about 200 medals up.
Things to be aware of
- Only virtual medals are used; no money changes hands.
- Bonuses here pay out all at once, a simplification of the bonus games on real machines.
- Return rates are long-run averages. Over a few hundred games, results swing widely at any setting.
FAQ
Does this involve real money?
No. This is entertainment-only using virtual medals; no real money changes hands.
What is the "setting"?
A nod to the "setting" mechanic on real pachislot machines, which lets you experience how bonus win rates change at different setting levels.
Does the timing of my stop button presses affect the result?
You get to enjoy the manual stop-button timing, but the win outcome itself is modeled as being decided at spin start, just like the real machines โ the stop timing is part of the authentic feel.
What happens when I run out of medals?
It shows "Out of medals" โ use Reset to refill your medal count and keep playing.
What's the difference between BIG and REG bonuses?
As shown in the payout table, each pays out a different amount, modeled on the payout balance of real Juggler-series machines.
