Slingo Showdown

In this game, players take a trip to the Wild West, which is one of the most popular locations for online casino games. However, there is no spinning involved when playing Slingo Showdown. Instead, players will be dealt cards. In addition to this, the aim isn’t to match different numbers along a grid, but to match a collection of cards that lie across a table.

Each deal consists of 5 cards, with ten different deals being present per round. The cards that are dealt can match any of the 25 other cards, regardless of the reel that they're on. Each line that is completed becomes a Slingo and can help the player to move up the table on the left of the board. 

Being a Slingo game, there is probably one provider that pops into the head of every punter. That is, of course, Slingo Originals, who have built a reputation for producing some of the highest quality Slingo games on the market. Some of their previous titles include the likes of Mad Scatters Tea Party, Slingo Red Hot, and Slingo Riches. 

A round of Slingo Showdown can be played with a minimum bet size of 0.20 per round. Players also have the option to purchase additional deals at the end of standard play, if they wish.

Aside from the different cards within Slingo Showdown, there are four special symbols that players should look out for. The first is a devil symbol, which acts as a blocker along the main reel. Next up is the 'free deal' icon, which grants an additional five cards at the end of regular play.

Finally, there are two different variations of wild. Both of these are represented by jokers, with red jokers being standard wilds and green jokers being super wilds. Normal wilds allow the player to remove any card that is located above, giving them up to 5 cards to pick from. Super wilds act in a similar way but allow any card on the table to be removed.

There is no main bonus mode within Slingo Showdown. However, there is an additional aspect within the game that focuses on poker. If a poker hand is dealt with the five cards along the bottom of the screen, players will be awarded an instant cash prize. All of the values can be seen across the right of the screen. 

Common poker hands to look out for include two pair, three of a kind, a straight, a flush, a full house, four of a kind, a straight flush, five of a kind, and finally, a royal flush. If any of these hands are created, the player will be awarded with 0.2x, 0.5x, 1x, 2x, 3x, 5x, 10x, 25x, or 50x, respectively.

In essence, Slingo Showdown combines poker and bingo with online slots. The game is also visually appealing, with smooth transitions and soft colours. Finally, the potential for instant cash prizes to be awarded to players is another exciting mechanic!
