Points to Note While Writing Your Slot Review

You can find the demos on different sites and you can take the info from the in-game rules there, but NEVER from the text on the pages of random internet articles and affiliate sites ( if they are not the providers’ sites). The texts are written by the writers and they often cheat from each other, providing wrong details.

• For simple Slot Reviews, don’t mention any casino names where it could be played. These might be a competitor website. Explain the game in detail, rules, variations, bonus, reels, symbols, etc.
• Free Spins can be won by landing symbols and combinations. Not by default, when they launch the game.
• When you have a link given, mention casinos and games that are mentioned in the link. You have to search for the appropriate section on the website for the information. We are writing the review for this linked website, and need to mention casinos/ games endorsed by this site.
• If the slot is based on a Movie, Holiday, Special Event, etc, make sure you write about that in detail just to make things interesting. You could cut short areas which are obvious information like – “Press the Autoplay Button to trigger autoplay” / “Press the + icon to increase the Bet amount”. These screen elements and buttons/icons are obvious. If you fall short of relevant information, only then write about these.
• The PayTable could be just a tabular representation with a 2-3 sentence introduction. You need not write elaborate paragraphs explaining each combination. That’s evident in the table itself.

Casino Jargons – Explained for a Layman

Multipliers and Wagering: It is the total number of times a person must use the bonus money to play before they make a withdrawal of their winnings. If a casino offers ₹400 as the bonus with a 6x wagering requirement and ₹250 deposit required, this means that you need to wager ₹400×6 = ₹2400 and deposit a ₹250 to make a withdrawal of the winnings. The winnings, after meeting the wagering requirement, is calculated according to the bonus promised by the online casino.

Another example could be an x10 multiplier as seen in slot games. The winnings will be multiplied by the bonus multiplier if you make it through. Lets say with a wagering need of 35X. It means if you win a ₹20 through a multiplier, you would need to wager ₹20 X 35 = ₹700. Which means you may have to make 350 spins of ₹2 value each. Or 70 spins of ₹10 value each and so on.
