This is WMS Gaming’s take on the classic TV game show Press Your Luck, a license the slot-maker acquired after rights expired for its former owner, Shuffle Master.

The slot has a tall top box that is a replica of the board used on the game show, with award levels ranging from 25 credits all the way up to 4,000 credits surrounding a vertical video screen.

The base game is either a 20-line or 40-line video slot. The manufacturer makes it available in any denomination, but recommends a penny or 2-cent setup. When bonus symbols appear on the first, third and fifth reels, the player either receives a straight credit award or one of two bonus events:

The free-spin bonus carries unique aspects drawn from the TV game show. For instance, the “Whammy”—the devilish character that ends award rounds for contestants on the TV show, is a wild symbol in the free spins, appearing on the second or fourth reels. Once they appear, they stay in position for subsequent free spins—unless they randomly “backfire,” which removes a previously collected Whammy.

The free-spin round continues until four Whammy symbols are collected.

In the “Big Board Bonus,” a player is awarded from one to three turns. The video screen displays 30 “hot spots,” from which the player selects. The spots reveal either accumulating credit amounts, additional turns, multiplier numbers, or a Whammy. Players select until a Whammy is revealed, which starts the bonus awards flashing around the Big Board. A stop button appears on the video screen, and the player hits it to stop the flashing on an award. The player receives that bonus, plus any accumulated awards, and multiplied by any multiplier numbers gathered during the first phase of the bonus. If the player has been awarded more than one turn on the Big Board, it all starts over again after that.

AutoPlay on Press Your Luck Slots

There is no autoplay feature on Press Your Luck Slots. There are, however, a few features built in that allow the game play to flow from spin to spin without interruption. One can increase their bet by one coin by pressing the appropriate button. The player may also bat the maximum by simply pressing the so-labeled button. Of course, one can cash out with the press of a single button, as well.

Winning Paylines on The Press Your Luck Slots

There are five paylines on Press Your Luck slots. Players may bet on as many as they want but in a specific order. The payline bets must be made on consecutive lines. This is determined by the numerical sequence. Thus, 1, 2, 3 and 3, 4, 5 are valid bets but 1, 3, 5 is not a valid bet. One may bet a maximum of 5 credits on any single line.

Winning Payouts on Press Your Luck Slot Machine

The two largest payouts on this game are earned from five-of-a-kind matches on a payout line. Five wild symbols on the same line nets 25,000 coins! The wild symbol is denoted by the word 'WILD' itself. Five Press Your Luck symbols pays out the second highest winnings, 12,500 coins.

If one should get 5 Big Board Bonus symbols on any active line they are advanced to the highest-paying bonus game. This bonus game is identical to the television game show. The player is faced with a board full of prizes. Once they win one prize by stopping the selector on a winning square, the Whammy appears and replaces one of the winning symbols with a hazard symbol, the Whammy himself. This symbol instantly ends the bonus round. If one wishes to 'press their luck', they can keep taking spins until they hit a Whammy symbol. There is a bonus round to this game, as well, where the player is faced with either doubling their entire winnings at 50/50 odds or losing it all.

The Slam Stop Bonus is obtained by lining up three of the so-named symbols on reels 3, 4 and 5. This game simply requires the player to choose their prize by turning over a selection of hidden prize tiles. Press Your Luck Slots is a fun game particularly for those players who enjoy many different ways to play the odds.
