The Price is Right Plinko
Come on down to The Price is Right! This 5-reel, 9-payline slot game has 2 exciting bonus rounds.
Drop chips to stack up awards in the playful Plinko Bonus, or spin the wheel and click your way to riches in the Showcase Bonus. There are 9 paylines, and you can bet 1-5 credits on each payline.
You get the Plinko Bonus when the Plinko symbol appears on reels 3, 4, and 5 when you have bet on all 9 paylines. An animation will play on the reels, and you will be prompted to click one of the Plinko Chip symbols. The symbol will reveal the number of chips that you will have for the Plinko Bonus; you may earn 3, 4, or 5 Plinko chips.
In the Bonus, you drop each chip, one at a time, from one of three slots at the top of the Plinko pegboard. This is a completely fair pegboard — you have a 50:50 chance of the chip falling left or right at each peg. Each Plinko chip will land in one of the award bins at the bottom of the board. The award value of each bin varies each time you play the bonus. You accumulate awards with each Plinko chip you drop. The accumulated award total is multiplied by your average line bet (for the proposition that earned the Bonus), rounded to the nearest whole number, to determine your Bonus Award.
You get the Wheel Bonus when the Wheel symbol appears on reels 1, 2, and 3 on a payline on which you have bet.
Spin the wheel, and if you spin between 55 and 100, you will advance to the Showcase Bonus!
Just as in the real television game version, you get up to two spins of the wheel to earn a chance to advance to the Showcase. The outcomes of your spins are added together to come up with a combined total. If the wheel lands on 50 or less on your first spin, you can choose to take your award as winnings, or you can forgo that prize and choose to spin the wheel a second time, hoping to get a combined spin total of 55 or over without exceeding 100.
If you choose not to spin the wheel a second time after getting a first spin of 50 or less, you win an award worth the value of your first spin, multiplied by the bet on the payline that earned the bonus, and will return to the main game without moving on to the showcase. If you choose to spin again and get a combined total of 55 to 100, you will advance to the Showcase. There is no award for your Showcase qualifying wheel spin. If you choose to spin again and “bust” by exceeding a spin total of 100, you win a consolation award, which is multiplied by the bet on the payline that earned the bonus, and return to the main game without moving on to the Showcase. On each spin, you have an equal chance of landing on any value.
The Showcase offers two award collections, right and left. Choose one, the door opens to reveal a group of items, and six tags appear at the bottom of the playfield. Click a tag to reveal an item in the showcase and an award amount. Keep clicking tags and accumulating awards until you reveal the item with the “Collect Win.” Once you reveal the Collect Win item, your award accumulation is over and you’ll return to the main game. The accumulated award total is multiplied by the bet on the payline that earned the Bonus to determine your Bonus Award.
Within the six tags for the showcase are always five items with award values (one of which has a Collect Win associated with it), and one Double Showcase tag. If you select the Double Showcase tag before revealing the item with the Collect Win, the second Showcase will be revealed and 6 new tags will be displayed – you can now earn awards from both Showcases! Within the 6 additional tags that appear are five items with award values (one of which has a Collect Win associated with it), and one Collect tag. Keep clicking tags to reveal items and accumulate awards until the Collect tag, or one of the Collect Win items in either of the Showcases, is revealed. If the Collect tag is revealed before any of the Showcase items are revealed, it becomes a “Super Collect” and you win all of the award amounts in both Showcases! You have an equal chance of picking any available tag — no one tag is more or less likely to occur than any other.
The Price is Right Plinko is fun, and because there are two bonuses to try for, relatively low risk. I’d define this slot machine as a medium-win, medium-volatility slot machine. That makes it suitable for all slot machine players. Play The Price is Right Plinko now – come on down and WIN!
