Flying Horse Slot - Ainsworth

Horse lovers will definitely enjoy Flying Horse, Ainsworth’s five-reeled three-rowed video slot machine. You can play with up to 100 active pay lines, which is… well, a freaking lot! So you really have good chances of landing a winning combination. This video slot machine reminds us of those slot machines from the 90s and early 2000s with highly contrasting colors and (rather tacky) cartoonish designs, as well as sound effects that contribute to that classic Vegas’s atmosphere.

Now, as regards the mechanics of the game, it is worth noting that there are sixteen symbols in total, from which fourteen are paying symbols. The highest value ones are the Flying Horse and the Wild Flying horse, which multiply your bet by one hundred when five of them land on a pay line. On the higher end of the paying symbols, we also have a phoenix, the number seven, a horse’s silhouette rearing up before the sunset, a diamond, and a river crossing a canyon. The lowest paying symbols are the J, the 9, the 10, the A, the Q and the K. These symbols are removed from the feature pay table.

Other special symbols include the Wild and the Horse. The Wild substitutes for any other one, with the exception being the scatters, the Wild Flying Horse and the Horse. Meanwhile, the Horse appears only on the second and fourth reel. This symbol can activate the horse feature. Basically, the horse has different effects according to the reel and row where it lands. If it lands on the blue highlighted squares on either the second or the fourth reel, the horse turns into a wild.

At the same time, if the Horse lands on a red highlighted square on the second reel, all the symbols on the neighboring reels turn into Wilds, unless they are a Flying Horse icon, which would turn into a Wild Flying Horse. Additionally, when two Horses appear in a red highlighted square in both the second and the fourth reel, all the symbols on the grid become Wilds, and the Flying Horses become Wild Flying Horses.
There are also two different features: the Free Games feature and the Wild Re-Spin feature. The first one activates when three or more scatters land on the grid, regardless of their position. In Free Games, the reels expand and cover up to nine rows. You can get extra games if you get three or more Scatters and you also have the chance of having the Flying Horse symbol appear on the three uppermost rows on every single reel.

Once you are in Free Games mode, the Wild Re-Spin feature activates when you get a Horse in the red cells on the second and fourth reel. Depending on where your horse landed, you will get a free game and all symbols will become Wilds either on the first, second and third row, or on the third, fourth and fifth.

Even though the design looks a bit cheap and out of date, the flexibility of the game when it comes to active pay lines make it attractive enough to give it a go. You know what they say, don’t judge a book by its cover… or a slot machine by its design!
