Side Strike Slots

What is Side Strike?

Side Strike slots are games that include an additional type of side bet that players can choose to make. Although this should always be done responsibly, this feature can give players more ways to win and enhance any gaming session.

This special feature, which is included in some of our top games, also helps to bring more variation to general play. Rather than having to always stick to standard base game action, players are able to switch things up with the chance to make a Side Strike side bet. To help gamers stay in control, the amount they choose to bet on this feature is totally up to them! 

The increased drama that the Side Strike feature brings to each spin also makes it sensational. Waiting for the reels to come to a stop and wondering whether the side bet has won really does make playing these kinds of slots more exciting.  

This is also an easy-to-understand extra feature with no confusing or complex rules. As a result, it is accessible to all players, new and experienced. 

Detailed description: how Side Strike works

This special feature sees players choosing to make a side bet before they spin the reels. This side bet involves predicting if more red or green chips will appear on the next spin. Red chips show up on reel 1 and green ones on reel 5. 

The really cool thing about this feature is that players can set their own side bet stake, completely independent of other wagers in the game. Payouts are triggered as below: 

• Two or more chips of the selected color lands = 5x the side bet amount
• One or more chips of the selected color lands = 2x the side bet amount
• Two of both green and red chips appear on the reels = 1x the side bet amount

Once any relevant Side Strike payouts are awarded, the action returns to the base game. 

This side bet feature is all about more winning opportunities for players. It allows gamers to go beyond merely spinning the reels to hopefully form winning combos and brings an extra chance of tasting success. As Side Strike bets come with a one-in-two hit rate, they also bring more chance of winning with them. This can help players enjoy wins, even if the base game is not so lucky for them.

Side Strike is a feature that also adds to the whole gaming experience. The brightly colored red and green chips, for example, help the reels shine even more brightly. This makes for a truly immersive and impressive iGaming journey.
