Lost Slot Betsoft

Contrary to the other 'Raider' games, this Lost game couldn't even give me any thrilling moments! The payouts in the base game were mostly very low, the Respin feature gave some better wins but still couldn't excite me, and those 'Click Me' and 'Pick Me' feature games were simply a big bore, especially that Monkey game. I keep getting the 'Collect' icon on my first pick most of the time, winning just 1x up to 3x my bet amount! What the argh! Nope, this isn't a worthwhile game to play at all!

the sad things are that awards granted by them and the frequency with which they occur are not enough to pretend sustain our balance for long, and it might seem matter of perception, but it could be said that the word "lost" is closely linked to my sessions with this game, which I consider a real shame because for some time I've seen a follower of slots from this company.

As for the visual part of this slot I have no objections to do, Lost has excellent graphics, nice theme inspired by the ruins of Ancient Egypt and gold everywhere, excellent 3D animations, and additionally it has very good sound effects able to dive us into all this adventure, my dissatisfaction comes rather from the few chances that this game provides, in my opinion, to try to get some gains, and why deny that the vast majority of us the players put the potential to generate profits above ornamental aspect of slot machines.

Tight paytable could become justified with the opportunity provided by the re-spins, with multipliers 1x, 2x, 3x, 4x, and 5x, given by the feature "Reel Respins Center", but low hit average during the base game clouds our math hopes as to think in recoveringin just a round of re-spins all the credits lost over 10 or maybe more turns. The "Monkey Click Me" feature seems fairer to me since awards seem to be quite consistent with its activation frequency. A very different perception I have about features "Center Wild Reel" and "The Mummy's Tomb Bonus", which do not seem to have much impact on results of the game, the first is not only infrequent but does not generate significant winnings or at least it is that way in a very high percentage, and the second simply seems to be absent, I guess that many players have ever triggered this feature, but for me this task, rather than a challenge, has become an impossibility.

More than a bad streak I think my defeat in this game has been overwhelming enough as to think that in front of me I have a game that is virtually unbeatable, which is arguably the less appreciated quality in a slot machine.

When the first time I saw a video slot named Lost is available to play at a BetSoft casino I really thought that the slot deals with the popular TV series and I was curious enough to immediately go to play with it. I wouldn’t call it as a disappointment when I realized that the slot has Egyptian theme because it’s got a surprisingly good looking interface even for me who is a big fan of their product. Though the very characteristic BetSoft pictorial solutions can also be seen here like the puppet like pictograms or the funny character next to the reel area but the overall visual effect is more powerful here and I also find it more attractive than an average BetSoft product. I like here the supplementary background image with flaming torches or the illustrating style of the game buttons which are depicted as ancient bowls, treasure chest and the decorative Pharaoh figurehead on the top of the reels and though the symbols like scarabs or Bastet cat and other relics are designed in funny ways but they’re not childish and who said that a great Egyptian themed slot must be ‘serious’ game at all events? So I’m very satisfied with the work of developer here and think they did a really good job with the theme and how they interpret it through a video slot game.

The game segment at this 30-payline slot is very strange and I’m not sure it would be a positive thing in this case. There are some issues which I really think influences the overall gaming experience in bad way like the slot doesn’t use any Wild symbol and doesn’t provide traditional free spins feature but the most serious shortcoming is the payout ability of the winning combinations. I think the 500 times of line bet prize for the best 5 of a kind type win is more than poor and if I consider the slot has massive tendency to run into cold streak I’m not away from the truth when I say this would be almost an unplayable slot if some other features and mini-extras couldn’t help a little bit.

The most frequency occurring feature is the re-spin with win multiplier ability which comes to alive if we can achieve any wins on the table then the center reel re-spin and giving an option for the already completed wins to pay again or other combination to be completed and if the new center reel re-spin gives a symbol that could cause a new win, that combination is counted by doubled prize and the reel re-spins again. The prizes are increasing with every successful spin and multiplied by x2, x3 and x5 and this repeats as many times as no winning formula can be seen on the reels. It’s a good feature with usable function but when the x5 win multiplier is in effect we can’t get too often wins with better paying symbols.

The Center Wild Reel is another little feature which is activated if a Staff symbol arrives on the third reel and then the whole reel becomes Wild and also multiplies the wins by x2. It wouldn’t be a bad add-on but this feature is valid for only the triggering spin so if no wins occurred this feature is really worthless. Monkey Click Me feature starts if a good looking Monkey symbol lands on the fourth reel then all 6 icons on the third and fifth reels covered by Click Me emblems and we have to pick from them until the Collect is found while all successful selection reveals cash prizes which are not too high mostly around x5-x10 of total bet but if we don’t have too much luck and find the unwanted emblem what ends the game usually we get another run on this feature in the next 10-15 spins. Sometimes they can do really good things (especially the Center Wild Reel feature) but I still would prefer the traditional Wild and free spin feature instead of them.

After collecting 4 Eye of Ra pictograms during base game we’re sent to the Mummy’s Tomb bonus round where we have to find the right doors to get rewarded avoiding that ones which hide Mummy. Though it can be a little bit more exciting secondary game but at least the profits are respectable here and the most I could collect was around x85 times of total bet.

All in all, it’s not that bad game but the unpredicted losing streaks sometimes really kill the overall gaming experience and it doesn’t matter how many little feature this slot provides I still think it would have been better if some of the well-known classic features was also assigned to this slot. The visual enjoyment and the great atmosphere is the best qualities of the game and sometimes the playing sessions here aren’t wasted just because of them but calling Lost as a real good game? Um, I don’t think so.

Now, a bad thing is that they made the bonus game very hard to catch, I don’t know why but I will play again to see this feature!
