When you first arrive at Dark Harbor, set your wager to fit your bankroll and playing style. First, choose the amount of money you want to bet on each line with the “Bet Line” meter. Then, if you do not want to play all 21 lines, use the minus and plus buttons next to “Lines” to adjust the number of active paylines. Start by hitting the “Spin” button, or press “Bet Max” to play with the highest bet and all lines activated. You can also use “Autospin” to play with no pauses between spins.
In the Dark Harbor base game, you'll win money by getting matching symbols along any of the active paylines starting from the leftmost reel. Stacked wilds make it significantly easier to get winning combinations. Special scatter symbols pay out in any position. If you get 5 “Dice Bonus” or 5 “Safe Bonus” symbols along any of the active paylines, you'll trigger that symbol's feature.

The story depicted by the "Dark Harbor " is drawn from the Italian Mafia of the early last century when they were making the law in casinos and also on the streets. The symbols of this slot seem detached from the from half a century ago, being present of course the gun, the armed guy, the detective alert to any detail, the gambling dice, the money safe, the eternal cigar and the whiskey glasses.
The slot belongs to some less common platform, namely Gamescale Software and has 21 paylines (also a less common number). Another peculiarity here is the total minimum bet rising up to 2.1 Euro (i.e. a minimum of 10 cents/line different from the usual 1-2 cents/line). Although this bet is quite high, you will succeed without much effort to play some good few hundred spins with a deposit of only 10 Euro. Small losses here (or rather large and consistent gains ) are brought by two peculiarities. First, the Wild symbols are stacked here and almost after every spin there will be on display between 2 and 4 Wilds. So that, almost every spin will win something around 1 Euro. Secondly, here the Scatter symbols pay very, very much. Only 2 Scatter symbols have a payout of 5x the bet that is more than 10 Euro for the minimum bet (2.1 Euro as I said). As well, 3 or 4 Scatter symbols give a payout of 8x and respectively 20x, which in the latter case the rises the win above 40 Euro. And because these Scatters appear as often as the Wild symbols this will be the main way of wining nice here.
There are also two bonuses in this game, the Dice bonus and the Safe bonus, but me, after more than 350 spins played, I did not trigger any of these bonuses. The condition to enter one of these bonus games is somewhat special here: you must have 5 consecutive symbols (Dice or Safe) aligned on a payline. These symbols are very rare, and in my case I never lined up 5 on the same line (I had a few times 4 identical symbols) .
The slot is nice and the losses are small here and I guess if I had entered a bonus game at least once I had something extra in total balance.
