Play demoThe editorial staff conducted a test of 1000 spins in demo mode in order to find out the potential of the slot. Data were obtained on the frequency and magnitude of line payouts, as well as on the chances of activating the bonus and winning in it.
Expert Review
The general picture of the test is described in the table. The details are further in the review.
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| On which spin the bonus fell out | On the 9th spin, then 3 more times in the first 100 spins |
| Frequency of linear combination | About 50% |
| Best payout in the main gameplay | x42 |
| Maximum bonus win | x60 |
In the main game, payouts occur every other round. However, more than half of them are small – ⅔ , ⅓ bets and even less. You can count on a payout of x10 and above no more than once per 100 spins.
The best linear result of x42 was obtained after the fallout of four substitution symbols (Wild). That’s 33 bets. Plus there were three more combinations on the playing field on the younger symbols. All in all, the line payouts don’t keep things balanced. Without a prize game, the losses mount up.
The number of prize games is impressive. For 100 rounds they fall out on average at least four. The worst interval without a bonus is about 70-80 spins.
About a quarter of the bonus games end with zero results. For winning prize games, payouts are distributed unevenly: from x2 to x40-60 in total bets per spin. Bonus is activated traditionally – three scatter symbols anywhere on the screen.
Bonus scheme:
- Five barrels appear on a separate screen. In each of them may fall a valuable item worth from 1 to 5 bets.
- Also the barrel may turn out to be empty. In the case of such an unlucky choice, the process ends with the preservation of all the winnings already received.
- If in the 1st round there was at least one successful choice, then the 2nd stage will definitely begin.
- In the final round it is necessary to open the looted items themselves. They have multipliers from 0 to 9.
- In the case of a non-zero multiplier, the payout is reduced by the value of the item.
Getting into the 2nd stage does not guarantee a win, even if several items are collected.
The best result (x60) was obtained after mining all five items. The best multiplier of x9 fell out for one of them.
In Lucky Drink slot from Belatra there is no protection against unlucky choices in the bonus game, as it happens in machines from Igrosoft, similar in mechanics.
Statistical data
The table contains detailed results of the test 1000 spins.
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Volatility level by impression | Average |
| Expected RTP | About 90% |
| How often the bonus falls out | About 4 times per 1000 rounds |
| Worst time without bonus | 70-80 spins |
| Probability of any win | 50% |
| Win distribution (main game / bonus) | 35/65 |
| Maximum payouts received on lines | x42, x21, x20 |
| Maximum winnings in bonus | x60, x46, x45 |
| Minimum bonus winnings | x0, x2, x3 (*) |
(*) Zero result was in 10 bonus games out of 42 activated.
Note. The frequency of the bonus, according to the information of the provider Belatra, is 1 in 74. The test showed that this does not correspond to reality. Activation occurs about three times more often. Perhaps the manufacturer is referring to the frequency of passing to the 2nd stage. Then everything is correct.

Expert tips
Slot machine Lucky Drink (Belatra) has a low RTP – 92%. Therefore, the optimal tactic – short runs of 50-100 spins in order to catch a few expensive prize rounds.
In the bonus is not worth early completion of the 1st stage, as even with the opening of an empty barrel, the 2nd round will still take place. But in the final round it makes sense not to touch expensive items in search of a multiplier. There is a chance to lose the largest prize. Its value will be deducted from the payout in the case of a x0 multiplier. The probability of a zero multiplier in the 2nd stage can be estimated as 33%.
Before starting the spins it makes sense to set the risk game type “Dealer” in the settings
Before starting the spins it makes sense to set the “Dealer” risk game type in the settings.
It is better than “Red-Black”, because the conditional croupier sometimes falls a deuce or a three, which means a high probability of doubling the payout.
Play the demoThe video slot is available in about half of the operating online casinos in Runet. It is not banned for wagering bonuses, as it is a disadvantageous venture with the low payout of the machine.
