Blue Shell Games'Lucky Slots is proving to be one of the more popular of the recent crop of Facebook-based slot machine simulations.

By Pete Davison From Inside Social Games

Lucky Slots is a fairly basic slot machine simulation that, like most games in the genre, does not explain how to play slots for those who are unfamiliar. What Lucky Slots does offer, however, is a good degree of audio-visual polish and a wide variety of machines for players to challenge as they rise through the experience levels.

At the time of writing, there are nine different machines available, with each one unlocking at every even-numbered experience level up to level 16. Each machine carries a different visual theme, but all play identically to most other slots sims on Facebook — players purchase a number of "win lines" on the machine, spin the reels and hope a winning combination of symbols come up.

"Scatter" symbols may be used to acquire free spins if three, four or five are matched on a single line, while "Wild" symbols may be used to stand in for any symbol except "Scatter." Unlike some other recent Facebook slots games, there are no symbols that trigger minigames — it's a simple, pure slots experience.
