Hot 81 Introduction
Hot81 is a classic-style pokie with a twist. This four-reel game set inside a 1950s body has 81 ways to win and is not shy about showing them all off. This is one of Amatic’s great free pokies and is also worth playing for real. You can play it online or on your phone or tablet.
The theme
This game is about the watermelons and other basic fruits symbols, the Lucky 7s and the BAR icons. It offers players a quick fix of something fun in their spare time. The attractive, old-fashioned casing really gives you the feel of being in a US diner and you can almost taste the Cherry Coke; however, this is no play for pennies game.
With 81 lines and the possibility of putting on $5 a line, this means big players could be shelling out $405 a time; however, 1950s America was a pretty affluent place.
Playing and winning
Players of all levels will be comforted by the familiar symbols; however, lots of these are really low payers. The best paying regular symbol is the Lucky 7, but remember to look out for the Lucky Stars. If a Lucky Star symbol shows up, whatever vertical row it falls in goes wild. This is the kind of feature that will really makes your eyes light up. Ching! Ching! Ching!
Overall
The big difference between classic pokies and newer ones is the lack of scatters and bonuses; however, for players who like to get hot while still playing it cool, 81 paylines will do the trick.
