40 Super Dice Pokies
Online casino games developer EGT already had a 20-payline pokie on the market called 20 Super Dice and in flash of inspiration, have made their latest release a virtually identical game with 40 paylines and called it 40 Super Dice. It may not be the most original thinking, but both versions are high-quality games that feature not just dice, but also a wild joker and scatter awards, along with the Jackpot Cards bonus round that’s carried across all of their games.
This simple pokie has 5 reels of colourful dice, arranged in 4 rows and to win a prize, players will want to see any 3 of a kind stopping on any of the paylines, in an unbroken row starting on the left side reel. All lines are active, which makes the smallest wager on a spin 0.40, although anyone who likes to test games before playing them for real, should be able to practice free 40 Super Dice video pokie games at most casino.
Playing 40 Super Dice
The pay table lets players review how much each of the symbols is worth and it all starts with light blue, pink and green dice, each of which pays out the equivalent of 10x the amount staked per line when 3 land, while 4 are worth 20x and a full line right across the reels will pay out 100x. The red and darker blue dice will be worth 20x, 40x or 200x with lines of 3, 4 or 5, and the top dice awards are paid when the yellow one lands across any payline, with prizes of 20x, 80x or 400x.
The wild Joker looks a little out of place among all the dice, but this manic-looking character pays 40x, 400x or 1000x the line bet when he appears on 3, 4 or 5 reels at once, but he’s also a wild symbol, so can substitute for any dice if it’s then possible to make up a winning line. He does this by filling in any gaps in a line of matching dice symbols, and he can also turn lines of 3 or 4 matching dice into higher-paying lines when landing on reels 4 and 5.
The last symbol we have is a Chinese-looking letter with the word Scatter emblazoned across it. Because it’s a scatter symbol, it will pay out prizes in any positions, with 3 of them worth 200x the line bet, 4 scatters are worth 800x and the reward for anyone who sees the maximum of 5 scatters appear at once is a massive 10,000x.

Extra Features
40 Super Dice video pokies by EGT features a couple of extra rounds that are common across their range of video pokies. Any win of less than 1400 coins can be gambled in an optional side game that takes place on a second screen, where a playing card flashes from red to black and players need to click on the correct-colour button at the right time to win the round. If the gamble feature pays off, they can try again, or collect the new win, but getting it wrong at any point loses the initial win and any gains made so far, and although it’s a true 50/50 gamble, it can be notoriously difficult to get far in these rounds, so collecting after a single gamble is often a good choice.
The Jackpot Card progressive bonus round is randomly triggered and leads to the Heart, Club, Diamond or Spade jackpots that are seen above the reels being awarded. A set of 12 playing cards are shown, face down, and players simply click them in turn to reveal their suits, with the first suit found 3 times being the jackpot that they then win. Once the Jackpot Cards game has been awarded, the lucky punter is guaranteed to scoop one of these prizes, although the Club award is relatively small and the Spade is the largest.
The Verdict
Straightforward real money online pokies like 40 Super Dice have an enduring popularity thanks to the fast, reliable winning potential and easy to understand gameplay. Because it’s from EGT, players will also be able to spin the reels knowing that they are at a fair game, where there’s a good return to player percentage.
Colourful dice fill the reels for most of the time, as the Joker and scatter symbol are far less common, so gamblers looking for interesting symbols that create a distinctive theme may be a bit disappointed, and those people who like multiple bonus rounds are also likely to give this pokie a miss.
While the gamble round can be played after most winning spins, because the Jackpot Cards round is a guaranteed winner, it’s not going to be triggered very often.
