Lost 3D Slots Review
Wednesday, March 14th, 2012So, after the last disappointing Egyptian themed slot game, I was in the mood for something a little more promising when a little searching turned up something called Lost. Now I was a bit wary of it, thinking it might have been about that TV show that drove everyone crazy and that I stopped watching because I became as the title suggested – lost. But no, Lost the slot game is actually a Lost Treasures slot game where we follow Dr. Dakota Bones as he searches for the pharaoh Ah-Amdad’s treasure chamber. That’s all in the game info page. Now there is no real Pharaoh Ah-Amdad and if you search Google.com for info on him, you’ll turn up the Lost slot game.
Now this is one of the 3D slot games that I’ve become fond of. It has a great background and design that features Egyptian ruins and a sometimes chatty Dr. Dakota. If you play with the sound on, he’ll offer some advice and encouragement throughout the game. Other icons include a canteen half buried in desert sand, an ankh, the eye of horus, a swinging axe and a blue dog that seems to be standing in for Anubis.
There are enough bonuses here to make even me happy. The best one if playing slots for real money would be the Center Reel Respins. Everytime you win a spin the center reel respins with a multiplier bonus while the other reels hold steady. In slot terms, this means winning more money. There’s also a Center Wild Reel bonus where landing the Cobra Staff on the center reel, it triggers a Wild bonus where wild expands to fill the entire reel and double your winnings.
There are two other bonus games. The Monkey Click Me is one I seem to hit most often. Here we encounter Farooq, Dr. Dakota’s monkey. Farooq only hangs out on the fourth reel where if you land him, he’ll appear between two rows of symbols and reveal prizes as you click the symbols. I get to click until I hit the “Collect” symbol, so a great way to score a little extra playing money.
The big bonus game is the Mummy’s Tomb Bonus. Now landing four Eye of Horus symbols (a good luck symbol that looks like an eye with a comma) on the reels to trigger this is tricky. I’m beginning to suspect that it happens about as often as I stumble over Egyptian relics, but I persevere. Actually, I’ve given up preserving after a couple of hours spinning this game. I’m beginning to doubt that it’s actually possible to trigger this bonus game, but should anyone do so, you get to help Dr. Dakota look for hidden treasure. But there are also mummies on the move, so choose carefully. Four spins because I can’t ever get to the bonus game.
