777 Strike review

Theme and Storyline

Red Tiger Gaming has gone for a retro feel with its fruit-themed slot 777 Strike.

Players will notice that Red Tiger Gaming has kept things nice and simple with the layout, as they seek to claim some decent wins.

Those seeking a true classic video slot experience will see that there is nothing elaborate with this title, and there are a couple of neat features.

Graphics, Sounds and Animations

From the moment players enter the slot, there is a gameshow vibe to this title. Well, Red Tiger Gaming has tried to give this slot more glitz with its appearance and production values.

The graphics may be basic, and it seems like the backdrop for this slot is on poker felt.

Nevertheless, there has been some thought that has gone into the soundtrack. It is quite upbeat and it packs a punch. Some players may like the light drum beat in the background, to keep them motivated as they progress through the base game.

The visuals may be simplistic and refined, but the quality of the music and sound effects help to carry this game.

Gameplay

Played on a 5x3 reel set, 777 Strike is designed with just 10 fixed paylines in place. There are 9 symbols in place too, and these include a variety of fruits and cards.

Wins can be assembled by landing at least 3 matching symbols across a payline. The cards are the lowest ranked, and the Ace, for example, will offer players a 5.2x return on their wager for a 5-of-a-kind win.

Whereas the lemon is the highest of the fruit symbols, providing a win worth 23x a player’s stake for catching 5 on a payline, while the cherry gives players a win worth 9.2x their stake for 5 cherries.

Wild spins are also part of the package, but we have more details on that later.

The maximum win available for this game is a respectable 2,830x your stake.

Wilds, Bonuses and Free Spins

The Wild comes with silver letters and a gold crown on top, and it will substitute for all other regular paying symbols.

To trigger the Free Spins feature, you will need to get 3 free spin symbols on the first, third, and fifth reels to get 7 free spins. Here, there is a chance of a Wild appearing, and the Win Spins will bolster the chance of players getting bigger payouts.

With the Wild Spins, these can come on the last spin of the Win Spins. If players can grab 3 Wild symbols on the first, third, and fifth reels, they will be awarded 7 extra free spins with an extra chance of a Wild appearing.

Each spin will therefore guarantee a win of some form. Wilds will be locked in place throughout the round.

However, it is the 7th Heaven that is a selling point. When free spins mode is retriggered, this can be upgraded for even bigger wins.

Bet Sizes, RTP and Variance

777 Strike carries an RTP of 95.8%, which falls below the industry average of 96%.

The range of bets available on this site ranges from a minimum of $/£/€0.20 per spin, going up to a maximum of $/£/€20 per spin.

Despite that, this game is highly volatile, so players will have to bide their time to claim some big wins.

The high volatility of 777 Strike makes it a great match for our preferred slot machine strategies. We tend to target games that have a good blend of high volatility and RTP.

Conclusion

777 Strike may boast a retro feel, but it more than makes up for that with a great soundtrack and simple, but effective gameplay.

Despite the smaller win potential compared to other fruit-based slots, 777 Strike stands out for the Wild Spins feature, which can see players get some solid returns on their wagers.

The high volatility of this slot means that it will keep players engaged as they make their way through the base game.

However, the disappointingly low RTP is off putting and we wouldn’t be quick to recommend this slot.
