Fancashtic is a slot machine that I’d classify as a classic title, except it has two things that set it apart, its use of 4 reels instead of 3 and the presence of 10 paylines. The theme is a mix of classic symbols and money related images, so it can’t seem to make up its mind in that area either. I’ve found that it offers a pleasant experience and it’s not a bad game to look at, something you can’t say about a lot of classic slots.
Feature wise, this 4 reel/10 payline slot machine doesn’t offer you much, but it includes bonus prizes that you can get by collecting certain symbols. It gives you a simple experience overall, with a maximum prize that is valued at $12,500.
Features of Fancashtic
Though Fancashtic doesn’t have the type of feature you might be familiar with, on the right side of the screen you will find two paths that lead to bonus prizes, one colored in blue and the other in orange. Cash 1 and Cash 2, as they are named, will offer you their prizes once you reach step 10 of that bonus path.
This is possible with the help of the symbols marked with those names, which will appear on the reels of the game. Each time you get a bonus symbol, it is collected and you advance on the path towards one of the two prizes.
Each Cash 1 symbol you get adds 40 credits to its path, while Cash 2 offers you 45 credits for each collected symbol.
Betting options and jackpots
As the game starts, you get to choose one of three possible coin values, the smallest one being $0.10 and the highest one $1. You are then allowed to use up to 5 coins for each line you want active, and that means a maximum of 50 coins/$50 used for a wager.
The Fancashtic jackpot is valued at 12,500 coins (2,500x the line bet), or $12,500 cash.
Design and symbols
The design looks good for a classic slot, but only average if we compare it with a modern title. The 4×4 grid on which the action takes place is filled with symbols of fruits and money related images, while the background picture is abstract. The paytable is on the same screen as the reels, classic slot style, while on the other side you will find the bonus ladders.
Symbols: Cash Stacks (2,500x), Money in clip (1,000x), Diamond (750x), Ring (625x), Gold Coins (500x), Orange 7 (375x), Blue 7 (250x), Green 7 (125x), Banana (75x), Apple (60x), Orange (50x), Plum (40x), Cherry (30x).
Is It Worth Playing?
If you want to try out a game with a bit of a modern look to it, but you’re not ready just yet to give up classic slots, Fancashtic should be an interesting compromise between the two variants.
The Fancashtic slot machine is offered through the Amaya platform, so if you want to play it for real or just to practice, look out for casinos that use it.
