We’re not quite sure what Microgaming was thinking when they created Cash Clams, but we can be sure glad that they did. This 3 reel slot machine is packed with different payouts, has a special feature, and offers golden classic slot gameplay. Yes, the theme might be a little lost on us, but who cares really? This classic online slot will be appealing and is playable to all sorts of gamers, experienced or amateur alike.
Like most classic slots, 3 reels support a single payline in this online gambling game. A total of two coins per spin can be staked, and players have got a range of $0.25 up to $5 to choose from. With its 1 payline, players can wager anything from $0.25 up to a more expensive $10 per spin in this big paying slot game.
The icons used in this slot are a mixture of classic slot symbols and clam themed icons, as Microgaming attempts to kit out their slot in relevant imagery. Crabs (not clams?) are the lowest form of paying standard symbols in the 3 reel slot, whilst single bars, double bars, treble bars, golden 7s and the Cash Clams logo make up the better paying icons.
The Cash Clams logo serves a triple function. It is the jackpot icon, but it is also a wild symbol and a multiplier. If a player locates a wild symbol, it will act as any symbol that the player needs to finish the payline. One wild symbol will also offer 2x the winning combination amount, via a multiplier. Bag 2 of the wild symbols and the player will receive a 4x multiplier on their winning combination.
Any one or two crabs will result in payouts of either 2 or 4 coins, or 3 or 6 coins, depending on whether the player has staked 1 or 2 coins on their spin. The amount wagered is important as it dictates the rest of the payouts too. Any 3 bars will result in payouts of either 5 or 10 coins, whilst any 3 crabs pay out 10 or 20 coins depending on the wager. The 1 or 2 coin stakes will also mean the difference between winning 15 or 30 coins, 30 or 60 coins, 50 or 100 coins or 100 or 200 coins, with 3 single bars, 3 double bars, 3 triple bars or three golden 7s respectively.
In order to win the jackpot, a player will need to find 3 Cash Clam logos on their payline. If they successfully do so with a single coin stake, then they will win a jackpot of 2,000 coins. Doing so with the max wager and 2 coins, will see them net $25,000, via the 2,500 coin jackpot.
Any classic slot machine that contains a wild should be loved, and with the wild icon also offering multipliers, it should be remembered and loved even more! However, for some reason Cash Clams is not as popular as you might imagine. It can be found in most Microgaming online casinos, but it isn’t exactly what is known as a big hitter.
There can be any number of reasons why gamers simply haven’t warmed to Cash Clams, from the wagering limits to the crowded screen. However, at only a tenner a pop for the max spin and with that jackpot in store for them, Cash Clams is definitely a game worth trying. If however, you aren’t a big fan of classic reels, then you won’t find Cash Clams very endearing.
