Oh, Frost Bite! I well remember of this little classic slot. I sympathized with it before because its unique look was a fresh symptom among the lot of one-dimensional, little boring Microgaming 3-reel slots (sorry, MG fans!), but once I had wagering requirements to beat (I don’t want to bore anyone with details) and my goal was to wager $550 with the possible least losses and at the end minimum $450 must have been remained. I wanted to think (or just hoped) it could have been completed with Frost Bite. I always thought for just minimizing the losses the best choices are 3-reel slots and if a game can offer that after 100 coins is wagered the deficit won’t be higher than 35-40%, so that slot is usable for this purpose. Of course I mean this 40 percentage in average because can’t avoid having periods with bigger losses or segments that bring even profits.
I chose this game because has the Snowflake figure that pays (x2) even if just one of them appears on the winning line and the best symbol Frost Bite (Wild) in the same situation doubles the win but if 2 of them pop up quadruples the reward. Though the game doesn’t possess huge top prize (800 coins for one coin) but the extended time I wanted to spend with the selected one forced me to use a slot that don’t become monotone and I think this quality can be found here as the winter theme and the great white-blue colour domination perfectly fit my taste.
So I started to play with $0.50 total bet and 2 coins and as I expected at the beginning not too much happened and my balance just slowly decreased. The higher paying combinations didn’t want to show themselves and later some longer losing streaks occurred so when I passed over the one third of the starting amount I lost as much money as I planned for the entire session. But soon after it something good must have happened when 1 Frost Bite emblem arrived with 2 Ice imps and paid the second best numbers of the game. Thanks to the emblem the win was quadrupled and the final return was $80. Luckily, this combination happened again while I reached the half point of the working process and from that win the original task easily could have been completed.
Since I’ve been playing with Frost Bite I never got the Jackpot but had almost every time solid results. Maybe the top award could be a little higher and make the game more attractive for players but even in this form there’s nothing wrong with this slot and can be good partner get some nice gambling experience.
