Big Time Gaming really have gone back to the basics with this one and revisited an old creation of theirs, which of course is Lucky Streak. The theme of the game is that of a retro slot, so think back to the 80s and 90s in your local arcade with rows of wooden cabinets featuring the latest games. If you can remember the slot Each Way Nudger, then you won't be not far out with the theme and style used on Lucky Streak MK2. 

As we head over to the paytable we see that the lower value symbols are made up of the classic retro slot fruits the cherry, lemon, orange, plum, bell and pear, where pays can reach up to 12.5x when wins are formed through them. Premium value symbols are the grape, melon, single bar, double bar, treble bar and the top paying symbol is the horse shoe, which will reward you with 500x for a 5 of a kind win.

Spinning the reels on the retro Lucky Streak MK2 can start for as little as €0.20 a spin, whilst the maximum stake on the game reaches €20 a play. There are plenty of bet sizes to match your budget on this game, with a choice of 7 stakes that range from €2 down to the minimum bet.

An interesting and potentially lucrative feature on Lucky Streak MK2 is the Cash Stoppa feature. For this bonus to be triggered you will need fruits to land anywhere on the reels that contain numbers. These numbers will help you to climb the Cash Stoppa ladder which can be found to the right hand side of the reels.

If you can land numbers that add up to 11 or more then the bonus will be triggered and you will move to the left hand side of the reels where you can see the Cash Stoppa Trail. You will press the red Cash Stoppa button and either advance to the next multiplier or hit collect and be awarded your current win. Keep a look out for when the bonus has ended, as you are given a repeater chance to try and further enhance your winnings.

The free spin feature on Lucky Streak is triggered when 3 or more of the lucky streak scatter symbols land anywhere in view. It is possible to achieve a 4 or 5 scatter trigger, but this will only award you with a larger cash prize for initiating the bonus, and no additional spins or benefits are added. 

Once activated you are taken to the Lucky Streak Trail, where you will hit a button and be randomly awarded anything between 1-15 free spins to begin the bonus round with.

Whilst you are hoping to get as close as you can to the 15 free spins, the one saving grace during the free spin bonus round on Lucky Streak MK2, is that every spin that you have will be a guaranteed win. It is also possible to add more free spins to your total, and this is achieved by 3 or more scatter symbols once again landing anywhere in view. 

Taking a trip down memory lane and having a bit of nostalgia with slots is aways an enjoyable trip, and BTG have resurrected one of their first titles for a bit of a revamp in the form of Lucky Streak. Whilst many may have perhaps expected to see this given a Megaways™ makeover, or some new gaming engine attached to it, BTG have kept true to the original and just made some slight improvements. 

These style of slots are definitely going to strike a cord with a lot of the older players, and I particularly liked that the designers got the noise correct for the payout, with the sound of coins being paid out of a tube rather than a hopper. 

Certainly not your usual Big Time Gaming slot this one, but still worth a look just so you can see what BTG were up to before they had major success with Megaways™.
