Our Experience Playing Rainbow Riches Pick’n’Mix
People who played the original will not see a lot of changes when they play this game. Before you see the reels of the slot machine you must choose up to 3 Bonus Features that will appear during the game. We chose only Road to Riches in order to get the best chances of winning big. When we tested the original, we were not too happy with the result in terms of payout, however we hoped for a better result this time. We deposited 200 Euros, set the bet to 1 Euro, and started spinning the reels. It took us no longer than 5 minutes and we triggered our first bonus feature which paid us 75 Euros. The first thought I had of this was that it was a significant improvement over the original Rainbow Riches. Another 5 minutes went by and the feature paid us 60 Euros. After playing this game for only 10 minutes, we won 102 Euros which was an incredible result so far. It took us about 10 spins to trigger the bonus again, however the payout was only 12 Euros this time. The next ten minutes were pretty uneventful, and when our balance dropped to 250 Euros, we realized that this slot has the same problem as the original, it is highly volatile while being presented as a medium-volatile one. It was more or less clear what to expect in the main game, it was the time to test the Premium Play. It took us around five minutes to blow through 50 Euros and not activate the Road to Riches once during that time. When we were at our initial 200 Euros, we decided to stop fearing of losing everything playing this not very appealing to us slot. After reaching our starting balance of 200 Euros, we made the decision to quit since we were afraid of blowing it all on a slot machine that didn't really appeal to us.
Rainbow Riches Pick'n'Mix Verdict
Although it may be considered a marginal advancement from the original game, it still suffers from the issue of having a very high degree of volatility. The only individuals who are likely to like playing this game are those who loved the first Rainbow Riches, as opposed to regular gamblers or experts in the field. Consider playing this slot at your own risk.
