Personal testers opinion

Copy Cats machine is using the unique scheme of adding similar symbols. This feature was already used at Ariana slot machine from Microgaming company. Statistically, the free spins feature triggers in every 113th spin (0,88%). This online slot will reserve for the winnings in the free spins feature 33% of the total fund from the prize pool. The maximum winning in the usual spins was 149x. The probability of a hit is equal to 30.15%.

Review and recommendations by the testing team

Copy cats slot was quite popular once released, but according to my observations, fewer and fewer players show interest in it today. Many believe that it will not give a big win and they just prefer to spend their time at other slots of the provider. For most reviewers, this slot did not cause any good emotions. I think that this is one of the most favourite NetEnt slots, and here is why.

  • It should be first said that you can get a bigger balance during the bonus game, which also will keep your balance up even during the normal game mode. The first reel is often full of cats which may form amazing winning combinations. Due to this, it will not let your balance fall while waiting for a bonus feature, and with the help of such spins (during the testing period there were game sessions where within 20-30 spins, about 4-7 times a copy feature with good multipliers was enabled), you may forget about the bonus, because the slot has already been more than generous :) Besides the cats, a normal spin may have a set of Wilds on the first reel (after it all cats symbols will become wilds) which is not happening so rare.
  • The free spin feature triggers quite often. Many slots would tease you with a couple of Scatters, and this one is not an exception :) During the testing period, 3 schemes of triggering the free spin features were found.
    * the observations do not include the situations when the Scatters drop on the 1st and 5th reels or the 3rd and 5th ones. Only when the scatters were on 1st and 3rd reels but not on 5th.
    A) The slot does not tease the player with a long line of two Scatters, it gives you the free spin features after the first or second attempt and keeps doing it on a regular basis during the normal game mode (we observed a set of 13 free spin features almost in a row). In this case, you would better leave the slot on time, because it will wildly start taking its money back.
    B) The free spin features are triggered in waves, i.e. giving the third scatter several times, and then several times doesn't give it. Following this scheme, the slot keeps being quite stable, and you may get free spin features with a good multiplier since the balance does not fall critically.
    C) In the very beginning, the slot does the following - up to 12-14 times the Scatters symbols are dropped on the 1st and 3rd reels with the missing of 3rd scatter on the 5th reel. In this case, it just keeps the balance up by giving a copy feature during the normal game mode, and the free spin features are yet to be received, after which it will be triggered in small periods during the normal game.
  • Speaking of winnings during the free spin features, the slot will do its best to avoid issuing the average multipliers, it may even skip the copy feature, so, the winnings are not impressive. But at this time is forming perfect Wild combinations and 1 of 10 bonuses will be with a total winning of about х200-400.
  • It was also observed that this slot does not like the big bets and has completely different behaviour for them, it seems that being not so popular, it simply does not have the funds to cover the max bets. This slot is more suitable for small and average stakes, rather than the big ones.

The following may be summed up: the slot has an average dispersion value, it keeps the balance up, allowing you to wager the bonus money. Having average winnings still may increase your balance significantly during the normal or bonus game mode.

Description of the slot machine

As you know, cats prefer to walk by themselves. And in this case, they will do it on 25 permanently active lines. There are standard five reels, and their number also does not change. If you want to get the winning, you need to collect the same images, by starting from the first reel. There must always be at least three symbols.

The winning bet is immediately transferred to your account, as there is no game of a chance. But remember that cats are unpredictable animals, the developers have connected the Copy Cats Feature to the slot. Cloning will occur when identical cat`s symbols occupy the first column. All other animals on the screen will be turned into the same cats. After calculating the winning, the cats will take the previous look.

  • A golden kitty hiding behind a ball is wild. It will replace all the images except Scatter. Wildcat does not form its combinations. During free spins, it gives the player additional features.
  • Cat`s collar with a necklace is the scatter. It can stop only on 1, 3 and 5 reels. When three necklaces are gathered at the same time, the gambler is credited with free spins.

The free spins feature

Three scatters triggers 10 bonus free spins at the current bet. The cloning feature also remains involved here. But wild symbol falls out more often and goes by longer stacks. Having occupied the whole first reel, a golden kitten can also turn other fellows into wild.

How to win at Copy Cats slot machine? (conclusion)

The most basic recommendation that we can share with you is that you have to test each slot machine in demo mode before starting a real money play. We think you have to choose your bets wisely, keeping in mind that the slot does not like high bets. Bonuses are given in a series and if you are in a series of several bonuses in a short period of time, be very careful when you will end your session, it may "eat" your money easily.

If you see that triggers you two scatters many times and finally trigger a bonus feature, do not be in rush to change the slot, maybe it's time for the series of consecutive bonuses... Despite the not so good points (5.92) for wagering, we think the machine is good for the bonus hunters.
