Net Entertainment typically sticks to games with the usual type of format and layout, but with the Aloha Cluster Pays slot, they've done something that's particularly atypical. This game has a structure for payouts that's a lot different than the normal paradigm of payline-based titles, and it leads to a set of features that give players a ton of action. If you like action and you like quirky slot variations, then this is a game you should definitely give a try.

How Cluster Pays Work in This Game

Cluster pays are a concept that is introduced in this game that many players will not be familiar with, so let's quickly break down how they work. Instead of paylines in this game, you'll match up connecting sets of symbols called clusters. If matching symbols touch each other horizontally or vertically, then they create a group, and this group is known as a cluster. The size of the cluster is determined by the number of symbols used to make it, and you need a cluster of at least nine symbols to get paid in this game.

Nine symbols might sound like a lot, but something you need to understand is that this game has twice as many symbols showing at any given time as the average video slot. There are a whooping six reels with five rows of symbols on each reel, and this gives you plenty of room to make matching groups of symbols.

Betting Options

Because of the atypical layout of the game, the betting setup is a little different as well. You'll start out with a base bet of 10 coins per payline, and everything from there is based on multiples of that base bet. You can multiply the base bet by up to 10 for a total wager of 100 coins per payline, and you can choose coin sizes that start at just $0.01 apiece. The maximum size of coins is $2 apiece, so it's clear that there are a lot of betting options to choose from.

Re-Spin Feature

Before you even start playing, you need to know something about how the re-spin feature works. One very winning spin, your payout will be given to you, and then you'll get a sticky re-spin. On these re-spins, all of your winning symbols will stay in place where they are on the reels, and you'll get every other symbol rotating normally for an extra chance to get wins. If you get more symbols added on, then you get an additional payout, and the process continues. This will happen over and over again until you have a re-spin where you don't get additional wins.

This feature is so important in Aloha Cluster Pays because it happens every single time you catch a winning cluster, and it gives chances to hit several payouts on the same spin. It's obvious from these characteristics that it drives a lot of the value that you get in the game.

Payout Levels

There are seven types of symbols in this game. You have the red, green and blue statues, the pineapples, the shells, the coconuts and the flowers. The statues are the higher symbols, and the rest are the lower symbols. The top payout in the game is 10,000x for a cluster of 30 of the red statues. Obviously it's going to be hard to get a cluster of 30, but there are plenty of wins at more reasonable levels. You only need a cluster of nine symbols to get a payout with any of the symbols, and the easiest four-figure win to ear is 1,200x for 18 of the red status. With so many wins available, there is a huge chart that you have to scroll through in the information for the game, and it shows exactly how everything works out.

What's important to realize is that these payouts are misleading in the sense that a single win always leads to extra chances for bigger wins thanks to the re-spin feature, so there's a lot more value here than meets the eye. The question mark wild symbol also helps things along quite a bit by adding to your wins.

Bonus Feature

The free spins symbol shows up on all six of the reels, and if you get at least three of them on the screen at once, then you'll get a set of free spins. The free spins give you a chance at an avalanche-type feature that gives you more value, but the biggest thing about it is that lower symbols will disappear sometimes to let new symbols fall into place to give you better wins than you would have picked up otherwise.
