Lucky Lucky Slot Review

Lucky Lucky offers pure classic slot machine fun, especially if you’re fond of Chinese culture, although its format may be unusual. But don’t let its simplicity fool you: the game has plenty of pleasant surprises for you. I was certainly surprised - pleasantly - by the unique approach Habanero used in this slot machine!

Lucky Lucky hit online casinos in 2019 thanks to one of South Africa’s most beloved slot providers, Habanero. It’s an Asian-themed game with a lot of red, jade, and gold on its reels. It’s a medium-volatility game, finding a balance between the frequency of its payouts and the win amounts. It has three reels and a single pay line, reminiscent of the original slot machine.

How to Play Lucky Lucky

First of all, you need to familiarise yourself with the game’s user interface. The Lucky Lucky slot has the UI common for Habanero games:

• The game information ⓘ icon on the left

• Total bet display

• Bet level setting (1 to 10)

• “Max bet” button

• “Spin” button

• “Autoplay” button

• Coin value setting

• Balance display

On mobile, you’ll have a restricted UI, with just three buttons:

• Bet level

• Spin

• Autoplay

First of all, you’ll need to set your total bet per spin:

• Set your coin value to 0.20, 0.50, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 40, or 100

• Set the number of coins per line (bet level) - between 1 and 10

• Your total bet will be coin value x bet level x 1 line. So, if you set your coin value to 0.50 and your bet level to 5, you’ll have a 0.5x5x1=2.5

Once your total bet is set, you can press the button in the middle to spin the reels or set up autoplay.

Lucky Lucky Symbols

To win in Lucky Lucky, you need to have three matching symbols on the game’s single win line (the one in the middle row). This game doesn’t pay for anything less than three symbols - but to make things easier, it will pay for a combination of all three low-paying symbols on the win line. The game has only one special symbol.

• The Wild Multiplier symbol, when it’s part of a winning combination, replaces any other symbol in the game. What’s more, it will reveal a random multiplier up to 3x that will be applied to the win. If two multipliers land in the same winning combination, they are added (so, a 1x and a 2x multiplier becomes a 3x) and that’s applied to the win. 

• The standard symbols in the game are decorative Asian motifs, with the higher-paying symbols representing a money bag (red, of course), a jade bottle, and a money tree. All of these pay only if three of them land on the game’s single win line.

My First Moments Playing Lucky Lucky

My first impression when playing Lucky Lucky was positive. It’s a nice-looking game with a fun Asian theme filled with a lot of luck and gold - what’s not to like?

But here’s a tip for you: don’t use headphones when playing it. The game’s background music (which has nothing to do with its Asian theme) is nice and silent. The sound effect that’s played when you win is extremely loud, though. Overall, you’d better play silent.

Looks and Feels… OK

Lucky Lucky is a typical Habanero slot machine. Its visuals are OK - not outstanding, but there’s nothing wrong with them. It has a nice atmosphere hampered only by the unlucky choice of background music. I believe it would’ve been much more atmospheric with a mellow Chinese tune in the background.

Pure Slot Machine Action

The game is fast - and even faster if you turn on Quick Spin. It’s clearly about pure, unadulterated slot machine action. It doesn’t waste your time and energy pretending to have a backstory - when you play it, you jump right in the middle of the action. It’s about wins, and nothing more.

Lucky Lucky Bonus Features

The Lucky Lucky slot machine doesn’t have a bonus game. It doesn’t have a scatter symbol either. All it has is a Wild symbol with random multipliers attached. That’s it. No free spins, no side games, no gamble feature, and nothing to distract you from spinning the reels. Whether or not this is a good thing depends on your individual taste. 

Some Technical Considerations

The game has an RTP around the industry standard, of 96.7%. Its smallest payout is equal to your total bet. It will hit pretty often, and the random multipliers will boost your wins. So, overall, Lucky Lucky does have the potential to even be profitable in the short term. 

Lucky Lucky Strategy & Tips

No strategy and no trick will ever help you beat the odds on a slot machine. The game is completely fair, so neither you nor the casino can do anything to alter its outcome. The only tip I can give you is to play the game responsibly and within your means. 

Be careful: Lucky Lucky is a fast-paced, immersive game that can keep you spinning the reels for hours. It’s easy to get lost in the game and go over your intended budget. So, set timers, take frequent breaks, and make sure you manage your bankroll wisely. 

Should You Play Lucky Lucky?

Lucky Lucky is a simple slot machine with not much happening on the screen - except for frequent wins. If you’re a casual player, you may get bored of it pretty quickly. This doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t give it a try, but keep your expectation for pure entertainment value low. 

If you’re a high-roller, Lucky Lucky is a great choice with its fast pace and random multipliers. Make sure you play the game responsibly and in a disciplined manner.
