Gameplay and Mechanics

BGaming did some touch-ups with the slot’s design and mechanics giving it a little facelift. For instance, they ditched their usual dark-colored panel and added a more colorful virtual control board at the bottom of the reels.

However, other aspects remain pretty much the same. That said, expect the (i) and the settings button. The controls display information about the slot and allow you to make basic changes to the system respectively.

There are also small upwards and downwards-facing triangles. These two are for changing the bet values of the slot. Finally, to the right of the control panel, you will encounter the Autoplay button for setting the number of rounds from 10 to infinity and a spin button to turn the reels. Remember, you can also use the spacebar on your PC to make a spin.

How To Operate Maneki 88 Gold Basic

Put the reels in motion and hope for the best. To do so, first set the bet to the size you desire. The least coin size acceptable is 0.08 (one golden symbol), whereas the maximum bet size is 88.00 SC (all golden symbols activated).

After that, hit the spin button to turn the reels and wait for the results. You can use the autoplay option if you don’t want to play the game manually. Simply set the bet size and number of spins you wish to make, then click play. Note that Autospin will stop if you win.
