Derby Dollars Slots

Derby Dollars Slots is a gambling game based on a betting game that somehow manages to be an endearing sum that is worth more than the whole of its parts. Taking its cues from horse racing, jockeys, and associated imagery, it is a game that is novel enough not to overstay its welcome, and manages to be fun for seasoned vets and newcomers alike. If you are a fan of horse racing, slot machines, or would love to get into either in an effort to win, give Derby Dollars Slots a try. It is a game you are unlikely to regret having spent time with.

Premise

Horse racing is the theme for Derby Dollars Slots, which works its way through every aspect of the sport. It is accessible to a general audience because the imagery chosen is well known outside of the sport itself, but jockeys and horses still play a prominent role, and some of that features into the gameplay as well.

Presentation

The graphics here are a little subpar. You can tell they were a little pressed for time and money when they used part of that image clipped off to appear as some of the matching symbols. It certainly does not look bad, but you will have likely seen many other games that look far better than this. There is not much personality to the characters, and the items associated with them are also fairly mundane, although that is in keeping with the source material.

Mechanics

Derby Dollars Slots is a 5-reel slot that is standard in most respects. You can match symbols to win, trigger up to 25 free spins, and there are standard scatters that keep things interesting. Horses jump in as the wild card, and also increase the payout you get from winning.

There are 20 paylines, with betting amounts that range from a single cent to $5. This puts the betting at the lower end for the genre, and has the benefit of making it accessible for newcomers.
