Hero of the Day Slot Machine
When someone mentions a hero do you immediately think of a flying superbeing who wears a cape and his pants outside for all to see?
Hero of the Day by developer iSoftBet sets out to remember all of those more everyday heroes whose brave actions often go unsung. Spin the reels while you browse through the game and have a think about who you would choose as your hero of the hour….
But will you find someone to rescue you? Here’s a look at Hero of the Day by iSoftBet with everything you need to know.
Brave Men and Women
This very worthwhile theme from iSoftBet sets out to recognise the folk who perform amazing feats all of the time, while still creating a game which is fun and enjoyable to play.
You won’t find any super beings or magical powers here, but there’s still plenty to admire.
The reels take up most of the screen so there’s not much of a backdrop to look at. However, across the top you’ll notice a silhouetted cityscape with two big spotlights lighting up the plaque bearing the name of the game.
On the reels there’s a plethora of letters and numbers representing playing cards and these are wrapped in the accessories associated with the occupations of some of the unsung heroes. You’ll find stethoscopes, anchors, rubber rings and handcuffs. And that’s a bit clue to some of the heroes you’ll see too…. Look out for firemen, policemen, scientists and rescuers, to name just a few! You might also see a helicopter appearing on the reels from time to time!
Supporting a Hero
Playing this game doesn’t just win you cash prizes, you’ll also have the chance to support a hero and show your appreciation for all they do!
But before you start spinning the reels, you’ll need to go and look at the paytable to see what prizes you could end up with.
This is located away from the main screen and can be accessed via the paytable button in the top left hand side of the screen.
To claim a win, you’ll need to match at least three symbols along an active payline but if you manage to match even more your prize will increase. All of the symbols have a different value but don’t worry, you don’t need to remember each.
There are a couple of symbols which do more too; these help you to win prizes more easily. The first is the wild: this represents other symbols on the reels and makes it much simpler to pull together a winning combination.
The other one is the scatter; if you land at least three of these you’ll received free spins and a x2 multiplier on any wins during these turns.
Claim Your Prize
Once you’ve finished doing your preparation, return to the reels and get ready to win prizes. Don’t feel guilty about doing this – the heroes are rooting for you too!
There’s just one more thing that you need to do and that’s set up your betting preferences. You’ll be playing on 5 reels and 25 paylines; you can reduce the number of paylines if you choose by using the buttons on the front of the main screen.
Up to 10 coins can be bet on each line, and the value of each coin can be set between the minimum of 0.01 and 0.10. This provides a total minimum bet of 0.01 and a potential total max bet of 25.00.
As well as the usual prizes you’ll also have the chance to take part in a bonus round – if you’re lucky. This won’t cost any extra money so you’ll receive a prize for free! To unlock the game you’ll have to first land between three and five of the special bonus symbols. These don’t have to be on an active payline and can be anywhere on the reels.
If you’re hoping to play for a long session, Auto Play provides a bit of comfort and takes away the need to keep clicking every time it’s your turn. Set up the function and sit back and relax while the reels spin automatically and the prizes pile up! You can release it at any time and return to manual play.
Your Hero
Hero of the Day by iSoftBet is an online video slot with an admirable theme, even if the game itself is a little uninspiring. The graphics are rather bland by iSoftBet’s own standards but there’s some good features and prizes to be won.
