6 Appeal (Deluxe) is a video slot machine created by Realistic Games, released in 2014 and re-launched on a full HTML5 engine in 2015. The game’s design makes a decent effort to conjure the glamour of Las Vegas and Monte Carlo casinos, setting the action on a gambling floor with croupiers, dice, roulette wheels, drinks on the house and dazzling interior.

Five playing cards (Ace, Jack, Queen, King and Ten) represent lower values, whereas images of martinis, attractive servers, roulette wheels and the game’s logo pay out higher sums when they appear on a win line. 6 Appeal has 5 columns and 3 rows, with 20 fixed win lines, so the ordeal is pretty straightforward. Set the stakes, click the Spin button and see what happens. Three symbols of the same kind are all you need to obtain a payout. If you wish to observe the rotations from a safe distance, turn on Autoplay and pick a number of consecutive automatic spins, sit back, relax and watch the wins accumulate.

The “6” from the title refers to the dots on a die. The entire title is a world play, but we will focus on the part that points to the experience of playing a casino game and entertainment factor, rather than on visual attractiveness. The game benefits from two Scatters, a blue die and a red die. The free spins bonus round is triggered by 3, 4 or 5 dice anywhere on the reels.

The blue dice determine the number of awarded freebies, whereas the red dice determine the multiplier that will be applied to the winnings from free spins. The blue dice only appear on reels 1, 3 and 5. Their results are multiplied and that gives us the number of free spins. For example, 3x1x6 = 18 free spins. On the other hand, the results of the red dice are added together. For instance, 4+2 on the dice = 6x multiplier. The red dice land on the reels 2 and 4, exclusively. In case there are no red dice on the reels, but there are blue dice, the freebies are awarded a 1x multiplier.

The main feature can be retriggered by landing more dice, and the highest multiplier one can obtain is, obviously, 12x the win. It’s nice to know that the dice will activate the feature no matter how high or low your bet is, so you can wager within your possibilities and leave everything else to chance.

6 Appeal comes complete with a return rate of 95.53% and a maximum payout of 2,000x the bet. The volatility is high, which means that hitting larger wins may take a while but it pays off in the end. 6 Appeal is playable on all devices, platforms and browsers that support HTML5 and, may we add, it looks marvellous on both smaller and bigger screens.
