About Lucky 8

While very strong in terms of presentation, Lucky 8 from RTG is just not strong enough in the gameplay department to warrant coming back to it regularly. It may be more your cup of tea than mine however, if you happen to be big on the theme of the Lucky 8, something of a favourite in Chinese culture.

Lucky 8 information

Lucky 8 is definitely strong in terms of presentation. We say this primarily due to the theme, which is naturally very China-heavy. It features things like an 8, the Great Wall of China, and various other symbols of Chinese culture. The graphics are well drawn and executed, although it is a bit of a shame that music is only present when the reels are spinning.

There is really only one gameplay feature here: a free spins bonus that is activated by having at least three 8 scatters appear on screen. You win - what else - 8 free spins that can benefit from a 2x, 3x, 5x, or 8x multliplier on any given go-around. There is also a "Win-Win" sort of guarantee where the game will pay out some bonus winnings if you hit one of those free spins rounds that we all hate where you win next to nothing. In fact if you go through a free spins round winless, you will be paid 88x your bet by the Win-Win feature.
