To wrap 2018 up once and for all, we are taking a look back at the coldest games of the year. These games were as cold as ice and simply refused to pay out – talk about slots on a budget. But, as these games felt the chill last year, expect them to heat up right in time for 2019.

 

Tut’s Twister Slot – Yggdrasil

Despite offering a whopping 125,000 coins max win, Tut’s Twister Slot paid out the least during the course of 2018. This highly volatile game has proved that a cold spell can in fact last a year – not just a handful of spins.

Despite its rather boring collection of symbols, Yggdrasil has been very generous with the bonus round – making it easier to score some a big win from the slot. However, Tut hasn’t been in the best of moods in 2018 and has kept his treasure tightly stashed away. If you love Egyptian themed games, this is one to watch out for in 2019, as it could be about to blow.

Abundance Spell Slot – Spinomenal

Abundance Spell Slot certainly hasn’t lived up to its name in 2018, barely dishing out a prize at all. This voodoo themed slot appears to have had some voodoo done to it in order to keep its reward stash locked away all year. Despite 50 paylines spread over five reels, nobody appears to have broken the bad voodoo cast upon it.

Abundance Spell is certainly an acquired taste and definitely isn’t for everyone. The graphics and music are top quality and amongst the best out of any slot we have ever seen, but it’s still one of the tightest games around. If you feel like giving it one last chance, 2019 could be Abundance Spell’s year to change your life with a big win.

Reef Run Slot – Yggdrasil

For a game with a medium level of volatility, Reef Run Slot has been shockingly tight with its payouts throughout 2018. Take a trip under the sea in a Little Mermaid style slot with stunning graphics and rather cheery music, but don’t expect a mega-windfall. That being said, if you want to try your luck at taking home the ultimate prize, stake an extra five coins per bet and you could win an extra 400 – 2,500 coins in its unique bonus round.

The rather friendly looking fish combine nicely over 20 paylines and five reels to help you try your hand at winning the max prize of 20,000 coins. However, winning that jackpot prize might be a little harder than it seems – unless 2019 decides to make the fish a bit friendlier.

Golden Bucks Slot – Belatra Games

Golden Bucks Slot has been awfully quiet on the payout front right throughout 2018 and featured in the coldest games of the month more times than we care to count. That’s not to say that this game isn’t fun to spin the reels of, as it certainly is.

Golden Bucks is another fruit-themed game, which probably explains why this classically styled game is something of a hidden gem. Even though the graphics and animations are top notch, the relatively high volatility level appears to have stifled the slot in 2018.

Love Magic Slot – Belatra Games

If you’ve had some bad luck on the dating scene and you’re looking for casino luck to help you out, Love Magic Slot was probably not your best go-to game in 2018. It was cold as ice – some might say it was as cold as your ex’s heart. It simply refused to payout any sizeable wins to intrepid players looking to brave the reels.

Despite its unwillingness to payout in 2018, it has an epic amount of free spins to give away and these alone can give you hours of fun. If you manage to land a win you can double it up with a side game, where all you have to do is pick a card higher than the dealer. Cold it might be, but there is no denying the fun that Love Magic Slot brings to the party.

These games may have had an icy cold 2018, but 2019 looks set to be a different story entirely. Hopefully, as the new year progresses players can squeeze these slots and win juicy stacks of cash – start playing today and turn these cold slots red hot!
