Lobstermania Slot
Lucky Larry´s Lobstermania is an IGT game and looks a little dated, if I am being honest, but that´s part of the appeal for me. Sometimes I just like playing "Old Skool", and I happen to like the B-52s "Rock Lobster" soundtrack! It´s a pretty standard 5 reel and 25 payline games. Just set your bet per line (from a penny up to 25 quid) and choose how many lines you want to play and off you go.
You can play for a penny a spin or you can play £625 a spin (ouch). The maximum bet will depend on the casino you are playing at. Without wanting to preach, we just suggest you play well within your budget. Make sure you have enough in your bankroll to fund a decent amount of spins and don´t bet more than you can afford to lose. It might feature Lucky Larry, but you can´t be lucky every day.
You really want to be hitting the Buoy Bonus feature if you can which sets off when you get 3 Lobster Mania logo symbols scattered anywhere across the reels. Choose a lobster to find out how many buoys you get to choose on the next screen (2, 3 or 4), and then choose your buoys with Lucky Larry looking on. He´ll pull lobsters out of the trap (some of which attach themselves to his big nose) to reveal cash prizes. Ladbrokes slots have this game in their games section. We would also recommend Paddy Power Games.
You can land between 5 and 250x your line bet. Well, that depends on how many bouys you are picking actually: a 2 buoy pick can land you from 20 to 200x, 3 gives you between 30 and 3,000x and four buoys gives you between 40 & 4,000x your line bet. You can also set off this bonus across 2 pay-lines, which doubles the payout. So theoretically you can get to 320 times your bet in the Buoy Bonus which is why I say you need to get in to it!
If you are one of the players who enjoys going to land based casinos as well as playing online, you´ll probably have played Lobstermania In Las Vegas or a Grosvenor Casino or maybe even the Hippodrome Casino or something.
IGT are the big name for land-based slots- this is one of their most popular and it remains one of my favourite games.
