The leopard spots machine is a 15 line 5 coin max bet machine that is alluring due to the bonus round possibilities. The base game does not offer the highest frequency of 3 of a kind, 4 of a kind and even rarer 5 of a kind symbol hits. The wild symbols do appear frequently and also are used for the possible Leopard spots bonus game. The bonus round comes at a decent rate, it is what happens during the round that makes or breaks your credits. You get two picks of the 5 bonus letters, the first pick is the number of free spins, the second pick the number of multipliers. You can get the best - 6 spins at 5x pay, this also includes the regular spin bet, so if you played 15 lines at 3 coins per line your bet can be multiplied up to 8x the base pay. That does not always happen but you can get some nice free spin credit amounts. The fun is choosing the letters, everyone seems to have their own system, but in the end it is really all random. The free spins can be a small pay, but at least every spin is some sort of guaranteed winner. The scatter symbols do pop up often, and that adds up with some decent bonus multipiers. I have had some tough sessions in getting the bonus rounds; other times they can come in rapid succession. The hard part is playing along and keeping the credit meter up without feeding in too much cash. The game can pay off quickly, in the $100 range when playing 3 coins or more per bet. If new to the game go 1 coin per line, but make sure to play all lines as the bonus comes up in every which way possible, often I have trouble following the paylines and am pleasantly suprised to see the bonus screen pop up. 3.5 cherrries.
