There are plenty of non-advantage Wizard of Oz games and there are a couple you can play. This is one of them. Not only is this an advantage at the right numbers, but the game is fun to play and has some great graphics:
You can’t factor in the emerald color when looking for plays, as that comes too infrequently to profitably chase and it caps at 50 anyway. Not that it must hit by 50, but the number can’t go higher than 50.
You’re really just looking for solo silvers, solo golds, and silver-gold combos. And you can conveniently see all of the bets on the bottom part of the screen for each denom:
I play any silver 20 or higher, any gold 27 or higher, or any silver-gold combo at around 40 or higher. For solo silver, bring 250x your bet and solo gold 500x your bet. So on $1.60, that’s $400 and $800, respectively. That usually safely sees you through to the bonus you’re chasing and you’ll almost always hit it before that.
There are two bonuses for this game.
The first one isn’t so much a bonus as an extra feature. On a random spin, Glinda will come out and drop down at least two full reels of wilds and sometimes increase the size of the reels. Occasionally, she even throws in a multiplier for good measure.
We’re playing for the second bonus. You need to land two bonus symbols plus a color: silver, gold, or emerald. As you’d expect, silver comes most frequently and usually pays the least.
The more games, the farther Dorothy usually travels down the Yellow Brick Road. I mean, if you have only eight silver free games, how far can you expect her to go? She’s never reaching Oz, where you get giant reels with combined character symbols for however many games you have left.
The farther you get on the Yellow Brick Road, the more it pays. That’s not a hard-and-fast rule, but it’s the case more times than not.
