We\u2019ve done a lot of testing to provide you with a table above. Check it out and if you need some more details on what each of the figures mean, find the explanations below on this page. Keep in mind that pokie fans will get a practical benefit from this table as they can find different games suitable for different purposes.<\/p>\n

The Number of Spins<\/h3>\n

The number of spins is how many bets we\u2019ve made to collect and analyze slot data.<\/p>\n

The more spins the more accurate the data we collect. But volatility is one factor that determines how many spins is enough. Because there\u2019s no point in making tens of millions of spins when it\u2019s a low volatility pokie machine. This simply won\u2019t make any significant difference.<\/p>\n

Play 10 million rounds or 20 million, the results will be approximately the same if it\u2019s a low volatility game. Of course, 20 million rounds give us more precise data. But 10 million bets are enough to get an accurate result.<\/p>\n

Think about the coin flipping. You would probably agree that you don\u2019t have to toss a coin millions of times to know that both head and tail have a 50% chance of showing. 100-200 tosses should be fine for that purpose. Why? Because the volatility of this game is low.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

If we toss dice instead of a coin, will those 100-200 throws be enough to estimate a chance of landing 6? Not this time. Because the volatility of this game is higher. That means you need to throw dice more times. This example explains the difference.<\/p>\n

The higher volatility the more spins are required to get an accurate idea of the game.<\/p>\n

Dispersion<\/h3>\n

Dispersion is the degree of deviation from an average (expected) value. Zero dispersion in slots would mean that every $100 bet returns $96 sharp (considering the RTP is 96%). Dispersion in this case is measured by the degree and frequency with which wins deviate from $96.<\/p>\n

High dispersion means higher risk. These types of pokies can produce no or almost no wins for a long period of time. But at the same time, they will very rarely drop massive wins.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not recommended to make big bets when playing high volatility games. This can easily drain your gaming balance, and you won\u2019t even get a good taste of the game\u2019s potential. NZ casinos themselves often limit the max bet for high volatility games.<\/p>\n

This rating is sorted by the actual dispersion we\u2019ve received. Games with higher volatility come first. Because we\u2019ve used the same way of measuring volatility, you can compare different pokies from different providers.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The thing is that you never know how exactly one studio measures dispersion compared to other providers. Previously we had to just believe what providers tell us. The data we provide in this table changes everything. Now you know how volatile different games are in comparison to other slots.<\/p>\n

At press time, Tombstone RIP<\/a> from Nolimit City is the ultimate champion volatility wise. It has an incredible volatility of 4,566.66.<\/p>\n

RTP<\/h3>\n

RTP is a theoretical return to player. Today, many studios create pokies with multiple RTP settings. This means that the same slot can have different RTPs at different casinos. We don’t recommend playing pokies with low RTP.<\/p>\n

The RTP provided in our table will often be slightly different from the one provided by a developer. For instance, the theoretical RTP is 96.1% while we have it between 96.07% and 96.13%. This difference is simply due to the lack of spins we\u2019ve made. There simply should be more bets placed to get the figure closer to the theoretical RTP.<\/p>\n

Max Win Multiplier<\/h3>\n

Actual max wins in our table don\u2019t always match the theoretical value. It can be slightly lower or significantly lower. Why is that? Again, the difference is due to the lack of spins we\u2019ve made. To land a max win, we should have played for longer. Max multipliers are very elusive, and, in some cases, they are almost impossible to land.<\/p>\n

Take, for instance, Extra Juicy<\/a>. In theory, its max win is x60,000. But to hit this massive win, you need to enter free spins and retrigger it four times. The last, 60th spin should come with a max multiplier of x60 and a whole screen of top-paying Bell symbols. This is the scenario that brings you the max win. We made over 26 million spins in this pokie machine and had the max win of x5,481. It\u2019s hard to imagine how many more spins it takes to hit that x60,000 multiplier.<\/p>\n

One more thing. A high max win multiplier doesn\u2019t always indicate that a slot is highly volatile. Hot to Burn Extreme<\/a>, for instance, has a max win of x5,000 and medium volatility. Meanwhile, Big Burger Load It Up With Extra Cheese<\/a> has a lower max win of x3,000 but high volatility.<\/p>\n

Hit Rate<\/h3>\n

Hit rate in online pokies is the chance of landing any win. For instance, the hit rate of 0.50 (or 50%) means that half of the rounds played will on average get you at least some win.<\/p>\n

The information about the hit rate can be used to win tournaments where players accumulate points for any win.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Out of all games we\u2019ve tested, The Magic Cauldron \u2013 Enchanted Brew<\/a> has the highest hit rate of 56.63%. This means that, on average, a win lands 1 in 1.77 spins.<\/p>\n

Bonus Frequency<\/h3>\n

The chance of activating a bonus is calculated as (the number of bonuses \/ the total number of spins)*100%. The higher the figure the more frequent bonuses. A lower value means less frequent bonuses.<\/p>\n

For instance, there\u2019s a slot called Lobster Bob\u2019s Sea Food and Win It<\/a>. The game awards a bonus on average 1 in 90 spins, which is relatively frequent. But as you might have guessed, these bonuses often produce a small win, which is due to its high volatility.<\/p>\n

Average Bonus Win<\/h3>\n

This is very simple. Average bonus win is calculated as (total bonus win multipliers \/ the number of bonus activations). This parameter can be used to estimate the win potential of a bonus game.<\/p>\n

For instance, Witch Heart Megaways<\/a> has a high average bonus win of x155.1. Bonus frequency here is pretty low at 1 in 601 spins. But as we can see, the average bonus win is quite nice.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Chance of Landing a Certain Win Multiplier<\/h3>\n

Knowing the chances of landing a certain win multiplier can be useful when you play tournaments. Some of them credit points for any win of, let\u2019s say, x20 and over. Knowing which pokies offer the highest chances of hitting such wins helped me win these types of tournaments multiple times.<\/p>\n

For instance, the chance of landing a win higher than x10 is calculated as (the number of all win multipliers from x10 and higher \/ the total number of spins)*100. If you sort the list by this parameter, slots that offer a higher chance of landing x10+ payouts will come first. When you play pokies that appear at the top of the list, you\u2019ll need fewer spins to land any win that\u2019s x10 or higher.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
