Some of the new slot machines have so many side games that they are confusing. It almost becomes a game of inserting your money, hitting a button, and seeing what happens. If you want to have fun, and know what you're doing, Bank on It may be just the ticket.

No, Bank on It doesn't have 293 reels and 216 bonus games. It's a solid 3-reel game and the pay table is easy to understand. As with any great slot machine, you can play multiple denominations and there's a bonus. Bank on It has five denominations-nickel, quarter, fifty cents, dollar and five dollar.

Do you hate seeing all blanks on the pay line? Not any more! In Bank on It, when you get three blanks on the pay-line, the coins you played are put into a bank. It's called the "Piggy Bank." The game puts 150 coins into the piggy bank to start out and the bank keeps increasing every time you get three blanks on the pay-line.

To break the piggy bank you need to get three little piggies. Bank on It has a wild symbol too and that can count as a piggy. The bank is a nice addition and a welcomed side game.

As with any slot machine, you'll need to play max coins to hit the jackpot. Bank on It takes three coins to max it out. Once you're maxed, start praying for the three red 7's, because that's the magical combination that will unlock the big payday.

Game Play

Playing Bank on It is incredibly easy. It's not filled with tons of frills. After picking your denomination, you pick the number of coins to play. I never advocate playing anything less than the maximum. If you're not going to max the machine out, why play? The goal is to hit the jackpot and you can't do that on any slot machine without going all out.

I like Bank on It, because it's your typical 3-coin max. You won't need to put in 15-20 coins or more like other slot machines.

After putting in your coins, just hit the button to spin those wheels. The pay table is easy to understand and it's right on the machine. You won't need sub-screens to figure out how to win. There's one pay-line, just like the good ole' days.

Once the wheels come to a stop, you've won or lost. There aren't any side games to Bank on It other than the piggy bank feature.

Bottom Line

If you want a simple slot machine, this is it. The machine has three reels, three coins max, one pay-line and one side game. It's very simple, but it's fun to play.
