Over the last couple of months the leading software provider in the casino industry, Microgaming, launched new video slots with a new feature called Respin. The online slot machines that use this feature are Reel Gems, Retro Reels, and Retro Reels Diamond Glitz. This innovative feature allows player to make a choice not common in other slot games. They can choose to respin the reels independently, for a price of course. Playing the respin carefully is important, as it does cost to use it, and it may not always work in the players favour. Here are some key tips to keep in mind when playing a Respin slot machine.
When the game begins, it is in normal mode. The player starts the game by choosing their bet, and presses spin just as they would with any other slot machine. After the reels finish spinning, the credits won are added to the players balance. This is where the respin feature comes in handy. Below the reels there is a Respin button and the amount it will cost to respin each reel. If the player chooses to do so, they can respin the reels separately until they get a favourable outcome. This can go on indefinitely, and the player can return to the normal game mode at any time.
When is a good time to use the Respin feature? That is a question many players have, and there are no right answers to this question. There are many combinations possible on the reels of a slot machine, so a mathematical calculation will not help the player here. The symbols are random, so there really isn’t a way to figure it out. A simple tip that may help the player is if they recovered their bet on the natural spin, they should avoid using the Respin feature. The player should always use the feature when it will benefit them, and not used to chase a win. This may cost more than the win itself. There is no advantage to using the tip, it is just used to maintain the players bankroll and avoid them betting more than they meant to.
The player will notice right away that one or more reels may only have a respin bet of 0.01 credits. This is because there are no wins possible by using the feature on those reels, so there is no reason to use it on the reels with such a low bet. It would be a complete waste of time if the player spent that 0.01 credit. The remaining reels with higher wager amounts will be proportionate to the wins possible if the feature is activated. If the player has a large bankroll, and can play with large bets, they should press the respin button of the largest wager for the highest win, while the low roller should use the minimal wager feature. None of these slots offer long term high average returns, but they do make the online slot machine experience more thrilling and engaging. Find these new slots at all of the Microgaming online casinos.
