- A retro-design from a fairly small developer Wazdan
- Base game offers multipliers up to 9x for bigger wins
- Free spins can work well if you get the 9x multiplier, but is poor otherwise
Lucky 9 slot from Wazdan is a new, retro slot from the relatively small developer which actually has a very appropriate title. As you’ll soon see, the number 9 is very significant here and is your ticket to getting the better payouts. Sound interesting? Keep reading to find out more.
As I say, the design here is retro and very cool with nice colours and classic symbols giving a unique look. There are 6 reels and 3 rows to give you 20 paylines. Simple spin to reels and try to get a winning combination from left to right using the base symbols which are as follows, ranked in ascending order based on their value:
- Plum (lowest value)
- Cherries
- Watermelon
- Apple
- Lemon
- Strawberry
- Wild
- Scatter (highest value)
Interestingly, the wild and scatter symbols are considerably more valuable than the other symbols in the game when part of their own winning combination. The wild naturally substitutes for all of the base symbols apart from the scatter and other special symbols. The scatter symbol is also used to trigger the free spins bonus.

Lucky 9 Slot Bonuses and Features
Variable Win Multipliers. There are multipliers available in this game which can be applied to a given symbol. The multiplier values are 1x, 3x, 6x or 9x. The value of the multiplier remains active until a different multiplier symbol is drawn.
Lucky Spin. If you’re lucky enough to get the 9x multiplier in the base game, it will become active for 9 subsequent spins and lower multipliers cannot be drawn.
Free Spins Bonus. To trigger this you need to get 3, 4, 5 or 6 scatter symbols anywhere on the reels during the base game, giving you 10 free spins and a varying amount of cash. If the 9x multiplier is active when you trigger the bonus, it will stay active throughout the bonus. The same applies if you get it during the bonus. You can win additional free spins by landing special symbols, giving you either 3, 6 or 9 more free spins.
Conclusion
Lucky 9 slot from Wazdan is a cool-looking slot, taking you back to the days of the retro games with a really nice look. The title is appropriate because the 9x multiplier really is the key to the big wins. In the base game, it can last a long time when you get it, and during the main bonus is will last throughout. What’s disappointing is that without the 9x multiplier in play during the bonus, it really doesn’t offer anything special. They’re just regular free spins and that can be very disappointing. I like the concept of this slot; it’s different and can be good fun but there’s certainly room for improvement. I hope to see more slots use this kind of idea in the future.
