Derby Dollars Slots

Are you familiar with horse racing? You don't need to know a lot about it to recognize the Derby, as this is one of the biggest races there is. It also gives us our sporting theme for this slot game, so let's jump on there and find out what's involved as we head for the finishing post of our slot by getting underway on starter's orders.

Which game studio is involved?

This is a Realtime Gaming slot and that should tell you it's one to check out. It's an older game but still one to look at more closely.

Demo action available for this horse race

Well, it's still a slot, of course, but you can saddle up for the demo to see what you make of it.

Theme details to confirm what we already know

Yes, this one is all about horse racing, so if that's your favorite sport, you'll want to look a little more closely at this game.

Does the age of the design let it down?

No, we think it still stands out in a positive way. You can see the racetrack, used as a backdrop, and you'll find lots of horses and relevant symbols spinning into view as you play.

Let's see what's involved in Derby Dollars

The slot game has five reels, offering the traditional three symbols on each, and it comes with a progressive jackpot as well. You'll see this positioned above the reels, so you can easily keep an eye on it.

One of the horses behaves as a wild, replacing other symbols to help create winning combinations wherever possible. Watch for a gold coin to drop into view too, as this is the scatter. You'll spot a horse's head on the coin. Two bring a scatter prize, but if you can get more, you'll be rewarded with more in return.

How many paylines can you bet on?

There are 20 in action in the slot, but you can choose fewer than that if you wish. Just be aware that if you do so, you won't receive any prizes that might land on the lines you don't bet on. The exception is the scatter prize potential.

Bets on offer in Derby Dollars

The game includes various coins, as you would expect from a regular RTG game, so choose wisely. You can experiment more easily in the demo game, but we can tell you that the biggest coin is worth five dollars on each line.

Do you need the paytable? Look for some help

Literally, as it turns out, because the paytable is hidden behind that word. It's a good starting point if this is the first time you've seen the game.

Bonuses are absent in Derby Dollars

We can swiftly move on from this element and get on with the next - and better - feature instead.

Free spins courtesy of some gold coins

This is the scatter, remember, so you must see if you can locate three, four, or five coins on the same spin. Doing so will produce 10, 15, or 25 free spins. All prizes found during your free games are worth three times the usual values. The game also adds more wilds and scatter symbols onto the reels, so there are increased chances for more prizes - and more free games too if you're fortunate.

RTP info does not appear

The game does not feature this value, as you might have expected if you're a seasoned player of Realtime Gaming slots.

What's our rating for this game?

Derby Dollars is a great game for horse racing fans, but we liked it a lot too. Finding reels that are loaded with more wilds and scatters was great for the free games, and it has enough appeal to be good for all fans of solid slots. This is worth 8/10 despite its more advanced age.

Look for the wild horse if you want the best prize of all

While this helps you find other prizes, it can also pay on its own. If you complete a line of five wild symbols, the prize is usually 3,333x your bet. However, if this turned up in a free game rather than in the base game, the 3x multiplier would produce an impressive 9,999x your bet as a result.

Play for entertainment to start with

This game is entertaining just for demo purposes, especially as you can play until you find the free spins without spending anything. Derby Dollars is still around because it has proven itself to be great to play over time.

Will you change to real wagers?

You will only know for sure once you have played the demo game, right?
