We hope that a lot of people still remember the legendary cassette recorders, film cameras, typewriters and other retro items that are long ago gone. That is why Endorphina company decided to take you back to the past and created Retromania pokie. If you choose this machine, you will get a huge dose of nostalgia.

The RTP (return to player percentage) is set at a standard level - 96%. A beautiful animation, fun music, a unique design, interesting bonuses, simple rules, as well as high coefficients of payments make this pokie popular.
Review and recommendations from the testers team
This time, Endorphina did not create a clone of one of their former pokies; they took Fruit Coctail pokie from Igrosoft as a basis and created Retromania pokie with completely similar gameplay.
- In this pokie, the punter is offered 9 pay lines, with payouts in both directions and a bonus game feature. This is one of the few pokies from Endorphina, in which you can, not play on every pay lines (9), but on 1-3; therefore two strategies of the game are possible.
- So, those players who prefer the doubling game and risk when they don’t only see the dealer's 2nd or 3rd card, but also cards with higher values, it makes sense to play with 1 or 3 pay lines, with higher bets (for example, 1 pay line with a bet on pay line 10, instead of 9 pay lines with a bet on pay-line 1) in order to double larger amounts in the risk game. The average win on such a strategy is 5x-20x bets, less often, the pokie gives out less than 5x bets and more expensive combinations worth 50x-100x bets, and the real maximum win, in my opinion, is no more than 500x-1000x bets, despite the 5000x bets stated by the manufacturer. With this strategy, of course, the issuance of winning combinations doesn’t often happen, and because of the sometimes lengthy series of spins, the pokie extremely poorly keeps the balance. At the same time, there is a great potential to get a big win when an expensive combination is issued or several doublings of the win in a risk game.
- To the punters who prefer not to play the risk game, but like to increase the balance by only getting bonus games, it is recommended to play 9 pay lines in order to more often produce low-cost winning combinations, and, accordingly, to better keep the balance while waiting for the bonus game. The average win according to this strategy is 0.5x–2x bets, less often the pokie gives out combinations of less than 0.5x bets, as well as combinations of 5x–10x bets, and the real maximum win is 50–100 (the manufacturer stated a maximum of 555x bets).
- This pokie gives a bonus game quite often, and usually in several series almost in a row. Re-trigger is not provided in this pokie, and you can get 1-2 additional chances only by issuing the fourth and fifth scatter symbols in the main game. The bonus game is presented in the form of 3 reels in the centre, in which for each start 3 game symbols are issued, as well as a frame around the perimeter in which the game symbol is selected randomly. If the characters match, it is paid at the specified ratio (from 2x to 100x bets). Spins occur as long as the random selection in the frame does not hit the existing character. The average bonus win is usually around 40x-120x bets, sometimes the pokie gives out less than 20x bets or a bonus game with no win. The maximum win obtained during testing was 200x+ bets, which is probably the limit of this pokie since winning 500x-1000x bets in the bonus game is impossible.
- The risk game in this pokie is a card (classic) game.
Retromania pokie may not be a bad option for playing with bonus money and fulfilling wagering requirements. While playing with real money, due to the two strategies of the game, the pokie will suit almost all types of punters, which is not typical for Endorphina, since the largest part of their pokies has high variance.
Symbols
You need to identify with the choice of stake per spin. First, how many lines will participate in the game (maximum 9) and how many coins you decide to put on each line (maximum 10). As a result, the highest stake is 90 coins. In addition, we draw your attention to a standard principle of forming the pay lines, for which you will receive the following rewards:
- Girl will replace all symbols, except Typewriter and will deposit your account by 100, 500 and 2000 coins.
- Typewriter will bring you the maximum winnings - 200, 1000 and 5000 coins.
- Record player will give you 30, 100 and 500 coins.
- Old phone will return 20, 50 and 200 coins.
- Camera will be able to return from 10 to 100 coins.
- Cassette will bring you the reward of 5, 10 and 50 coins.
- Camera roll will pay out 3, 5 and 20 coins.
- Vinyl disc will offer to receive 2, 3 and 10 coins.
Bonus game
The yellow star symbol is the scatter and a bonus activator. A special roulette will appear on the screen. 3 reels are placed in the centre, and the symbols are around them. A roller moves in a circle, and the reels spin. If the selected symbol completes a combination in the centre after stopping 3 reels, the player will receive a multiplication of this total bet. So you can win 2, 4, 10, 20, 50, 70 and 100 total bets. When you are on x, the game will be ended or 1 life will be taken. By the way, 3, 4 and 5 scatters who triggered the bonus feature, will give you these lives. You will get 1, 2 or 3 lives.
Game for the odds
You need to play cards with a dealer to double your winning for the last spin. In this case, you must choose 1 of 4 closed cards. After all, this value of your card should be large than the first one. Only then will you receive the reward. By the way, the probabilities of the appearance of each card on the screen are indicated in the paytable.
