Derby Dollars Slots

Existing as a nod to Vegas, Derby Dollars Slots is a gambling game based on a betting game that somehow manages to be an endearing sum that is worth more than the whole of its parts. Taking its cue from horse racing, jockeys, and associated imagery, it is a game that is novel enough not to overstay its welcome, and manages to be fun for seasoned vets and newcomers alike. If you are a fan of horse racing, slot machines, or would love to get into either in an effort to win lots of money, give Derby Dollars Slots a try. It is a game you are unlikely to regret having spent time with and come out the other end more than a little richer for it.

Premise

How many of us ever see jockeys anymore? Horse racing is the theme for Derby Dollars Slots, which works its way through every aspect of it. A lot of people do not know too much about jockeys, so they took care to still make it accessible to a general audience in everything that goes along with that. Everything chosen here is all well known outside of the sport itself, but jockeys and horses and related things still play a prominent role, and some of that features into the gameplay just a bit.

Presentation

Unfortunately, this is not where Derby Dollars Slots shines. The graphics here are a little subpar. The cover art does not look all that bad, but you can tell they were a little pressed for time and money when they used part of that image clipped off to appear as some of the matching symbols. It certainly does not look bad, but you will have likely seen many other games that look far better than this, and nothing about the way it looks tends to stand out. There is not much personality to the characters, and the items associated with them are also fairly mundane, although that is in keeping with the source material.

Mechanics

Keeping it simple, Derby Dollars Slots, a 5-reel video slot from Real Time Gaming, is part of the Real Series progressives with bonus features. It features 20 paylines, with bets ranging from 1¢ to $5 total. Horse symbols act as wilds doubling payouts, coin scatters trigger the Free Spins Feature for up to 25 free spins, and you can chase the progressive jackpot. Key symbols include jockeys, ladies, binoculars, cups, coins, horses, and royals (9, 10, J, Q, K, A). While standard, wins occur often enough.

Unfortunately, there is not much about this game that is very interesting, which makes it doubly hard for newcomers to keep their interest held by it.
