Can Lightning Strike Twice For JFTW With The Lucky Links Slot?

18+

If you’ve opened this new slots post, it’s because you are, by nature, a curious one.

What is JFTW? Or Lucky Links? Where did lightning strike in the first place?

It’s true; Just For The Win is not the biggest slot casino game software out there. In fact, they are such a small team, why do we care anyway?

Because that small team is compromised of some very big people.

It all started with the Goldwyn’s Fairies slot

Back in May 2017, Goldwyn’s Fairies slot got released across all Microgaming Quickfire casinos.

Why these? Because JFTW have done an exclusive deal where their slot games are released across this platform.

It means that unlike brand new providers who are lost in a sea of slots, Goldwyn’s Fairies got a chance to shine as it was in one of the biggest gaming platforms out there.

A very strong start with big wilds

We really enjoyed playing on the Goldwyn’s Fairies mobile game.

The theme was decent, if not wholly original, but it was the gameplay that impressed most.

This is down to the fact that the fairy queen could show up and give you re-spins, or free-spins, where you can get anything from 4 to 9+ wild symbols on screen.

So why haven’t you heard of it?

Maybe you have, maybe you’re reading this wondering why we are describing one of your favourite slots.

But, we are willing to bet that most of you here will have passed over the Goldwyn’s Fairies slot when it was released, or perhaps you decided to play on NetEnt’s Copy Cats game, because you recognised the name ‘NetEnt’.

It’s easy to do. There’s a hundred new video slots every month and you can’t play them all.

Who are the people behind JFTW

We mentioned NetEnt a moment ago for good reasons. The people behind this new software use to work for said company, creating some of the biggest hits of the last couple of years.

We won’t name names, because we don’t want to get into a battle with NetEntertainment of “they said, we said”, but if true, some of these games are very big indeed.

You don’t create something like Goldwyn’s Fairies on your first go, by luck.

Why you should care about Lucky Links

So we are about to tell you about a new slot for Android and iOS devices, by a provider no one knows, who once made one good game.

Yeah, we get why you’re a little skeptical about the whole thing, but we have to say, thanks for staying.

You’re clearly a lady/gent of excellent taste… or dreadfully bored. Which is ok too.

What we know about this new slot machine for mobile

Actually, quite a lot. We even have a video:

We even have a short description:

“Delivering a ‘win both ways’ experience in addition to stacked symbols, linking reels, and respins with locked reels, Lucky Links builds excitement across 5×4 reels and 20 lines.”

What are linking reels?

This will no doubt be the main selling point of this Lucky Links slot machine.

Namely the fact that whenever you get adjacent symbols touching each other, you’ll get free re-spin of the reels, all in the hopes of catching more.

It’s a bit like the sticky wins you get in the Sticky Bandits slot or the more recent Moby Dick mobile game.

Except these only stay sticky on screen if they are touching.

Won’t that make it harder to trigger the feature?

Maybe. But we don’t think so. Mostly because if you look at some of the figures behind the slot you’ll notice some interesting facts.

First whilst Lucky Links might have all the slickness of the iconic Twin Spin, it’s a horse of a very different colour.

Lucky Links promises to be an easy win game, with quick action. Meaning the feature has to trigger often, otherwise what’s the fun in it?

Does that mean we won’t get big wins?

Not as big as in Twin Spin, no doubt.

We calculated the top win to be around 352 times your bet in one spin, which isn’t bad, but not exactly ‘life changing’ numbers.

Still, we suspect getting several lucky spins in a row wouldn’t be out of the question, and if the action is quick, and our balance grows, this might be another hit for Just For The Win.

Worth waiting for the 10th of November?

Goldwyn’s Fairies was an excellent slot.

Lucky Links looks… good? We guess?

It’s not the most exciting looking mobile game in the whole world, but then neither was Twin Spin, so we shall have to wait and see whether lightning really can strike twice.

Meanwhile what slots should you play?

How about Goldwyn’s Fairies? Or, failing that, maybe some other unrelated slot that might or might not have been produced by ex NetEnt employees.

Twin Spin, for one, is a good start. Or maybe the excellent Koi Princess game with it’s million of bonus features.
