Keno

If you’re a Keno enthusiast, this game is sure to bring a smile to your face. Beloved by the American and adorned by the Australians, this slot has a place in the hearts of many around the world. Net Entertainment have decided to have a crack at bringing it to a wider audience, and here their version of Keno is put to the test.

Presented over an interesting 10 x 8 grid it’s clear this slot unlike what one might expect. However, with that progressive jackpot and addictive quality, it really is worth spending some time to get you to know the slot.

Simple, addictive and fun to play

Those that know the game of Keno will be aware that it is beautifully simple. Couple that is the mesmerising quality with the readily available autoplay, and there is a recipe for an entertaining casino game.

On the main screen, you have ten rows, each with eight positions, it is an unusual setup, but can be easily interpreted. The box to the left of the reels shows the stats from recent games, then on the right, you’ll find the paytable displaying the amounts you could win for symbol matches that might occur.

Playing the game like a pro

Choose ten numbers across the grid by tapping on them, then hit ‘Go’. The game will choose 20 squares at random, marking them with an X. Get three matches between the numbers you chose and those the game selected to win, three matches get you 0.5x your stake, but ten matches get you an astounding 10,000x your stake.

You can also use the auto pick feature. Let the game select ten random numbers for you, you’ll then get the option to play five or ten automatic games. You can turn to the auto button found in the bottom left corner for up to 1000 automatic games in a row if your bank balance and Lady Luck allow.

The bonuses explained

Joker Bonus

Now and then you’ll find that a joker is revealed when you are unveiling your picks. These get added to the information in the top left corner in the joker bonus section. Fill all of the available spaces in this area and you’ll get a free feature game in which all of the wins - except jackpots actually - are doubled. All jokers are reset after this but can be collected again.
