Samba Nights is the first 50 line slot game to be released at Cryptologic casinos. The game is very similar to Aristocrat's 50 Lions game as it has the same stacked wilds and a free spin bonus where wins are doubled. As the name suggest's the game has a musical Brazilian theme.
Like many of the 50 line game, Samba Nights uses the 4 X 5 reel layout. This means that there are lots of ways to get winning combinations on every spin. Maximum bet is 50 coins per spin and the game comes in a big 31 different coin sizes where you can play max for 50c or as much as $1000 per spin!
The girl is wild and offers the top jackpot of 2000 coins. The good news is that the dancer symbols are stacked on all reels. If you get all four stacked wilds on a reel they transform into one big dancing reel. Because of the stacked wilds it is possible to get a whole screen of wilds.
During the base game a whole screen full of wilds pays a big 100,000 coins. On the free games the same combination pays 200,000 coins as all wins on the free games are doubled. Even at the lowest coin size this equates to a $1,000 and $2,000 win. At the highest this pays a huge $2,000,000 and $4,000,000 - some of the biggest jackpots available on a non progressive.
The wild girls also double any win they are a part of so even if you don't get five in a row they can really boost the wins. This is probably a good thing as the second highest pay on Samba Nights drops to 200 coins for four wilds and then the wins drop to 175 coins for five fire breathers or trumpet players. From there all of the five of a kind pays are 150 coins or less.
The beach symbols are scattered and are the key to the free spins. Get three or more and you win 20 free spins with all wins doubled. The free spins can be re-triggered an unlimited amount of times. As usual the higher you bet on the base game the higher the bet on the free spins.
It's always great to see the software companies coming out with something new and Cryptologic have delivered with Samba Nights. 50 Lions is one of the most popular slot machines in Australia so this game should be particularly popular with poker machine players from Australia.
