How To Play Lost Island Slot

Before exploring Lost Island slot it’s a good idea to have a handle on what you’re dealing with. Click on ‘Paytable’ beneath the leftmost reel to review the values of each prize symbol and bet line mappings.

The best paying standard symbol looks like a red medallion with a golden carving on it. Get 5 of these in succession from leftmost to right on any bet line for a tidy 500 coin payout. However, this value can be multiplied up to 2,500 thanks to the wild symbols. Not only do wilds substitute for other symbols to make more winning combinations possible, but each wild symbol appearing anywhere on the reels will also add a x1 multiplier to any winning bet lines, up to a maximum x5 multiplier.

Scatter symbols are denoted by a golden turtle with an amethyst stone on it’s back. 3 or more scatters appearing anywhere across the reels in the main game or in free spins will activate a round of free spins. 3 scatters is worth 10 free spins, 4 scatters is worth 20 free spins and 5 scatters will get you 30 free spins. During the free spins game, the central icon will remain as a sticky wild to help create more winning possibilities. On top of this, you can spin in more wilds that can stack in blocks of 2 or 3 to create even more winning combinations.

As the bet lines in this game are fixed, you will only need to make two adjustments. Use the arrows or sliders to set your bet level and coin value, remembering that these settings along with the number of bet lines will affect the overall cost per spin. For example; a bet level of 3 and coin value of 0.05 will result in an overall cost of 3.00 per spin (3 x 0.05 = 0.15 x 20 bet lines = 3.00). The Max Bet button will automatically set the bet level to 10 and initiate a spin, so you must remember to first set the coin value before you bet as the cost per spin will be 200 times the coin value displayed.

There are a number of game settings which can be adjusted to your personal taste via four icons on the bottom left of the screen. The spanner icon provides on/off options for graphics, audio, keyboard control, and features such as quick spin and intro screen. Volume is adjusted via the speaker icon and the question mark opens the help menu. The Auto button allows you set the number of spins to be executed when you press Autoplay and has advanced options to control when to stop the feature.

To begin playing Lost Island video slot, click the green button with white arrows in the center or hit Autoplay if you don’t want to click for each spin of the wheel. You can initiate a skill stop by clicking the spin button again before the reels have settled.

Lost Island Slot Tips

Lost Island online slot is widely available among NetEnt casino operators and can be played at Casino Cruise, Betsafe Casino and Reel Island to name but a few. Unfortunately, it is not available on mobile.

You won’t find Lost Island featured in any welcome packages and it does not make for a good choice when trying to reach the wagering requirements of an online casino bonus. This is down to the relatively high-risk involved when playing the slot. There aren’t many small wins to keep your balance topped up when waiting for a big payout and you could end up short-stacked in a short space of time.

It’s a good game to target with an expandable bankroll in the hope of catching a big win, albeit not the kind of cash that will change your life but a tidy payout nonetheless. During the base game we had a few decent wins of 350 coins and 400 coins but it’s the free spins game where the big payouts are more likely. This is because there is already one wild in place, so any additional wilds will bring the multiplier into play. We only won 260 coins from a round of 10 free spins and didn’t see any stacked wilds. However, it was clear to see the potential of getting a big win in the free spins game.

Is Lost Island The Right Slot For You?

Lost Island is a medium to high variance slot that requires a fair bit of patience to play. You’ll get the occasional low-key win while you chase a big payout. The RTP is 96.5% which is good for an online slot as the casino only has a house edge of 3.5%. This allows you to have a fair shot at landing a sizeable prize with strict bankroll management.

Although animations are subtle, the gameplay is quite slow without the quick-spin feature enabled, which adds to the awesome feel of the game. Excitement builds when you need one more scatter symbol to unlock a round of free spins as the remaining reels spin on for longer and a swell of noise ramps up the anticipation. When you enter a free spins round, the tempo of the music changes and the overall feel is more adventurous as you rattle through the free spins.

Lost Island is a relaxing and enjoyable slot to play that can leave you either frustrated or very happy indeed. With this in mind, it’s best approached with an expendable bankroll and plenty of patience. If you’re looking for something a bit more quirky from the same genre, then you should check out Aloha! Cluster Pays which is also by NetEnt.
