Lucky Drums 88 is an ancient-treasure slot from Pragmatic Play, played on a 5x5 grid with two drums above it that collect gold and silver coins as they land. Symbols pay when 7 to 12+ of a kind appear anywhere, while the drums can open a Hold & Spin bonus played on one or two 5x3 grids.

Game mechanics

Matching 7 to 12+ symbols anywhere on the 5x5 reels gives an instant win. Silver and gold coins are collected by their own drum above the grid, and the drums can randomly award the Hold & Spin bonus game, an instant cash prize of up to 1,000x, or a multiplier of up to 10x that boosts all wins during the same spin.

Hold & Spin uses a gold 5x3 grid and a silver one. Gold coins can trigger it on the gold grid, silver coins on the silver grid, and both kinds together can activate the pair. Coins collected in the base game, up to eight of either kind, are carried onto their grid with a random money value apiece before the three initial respins begin. With only one grid in play, drum symbols can randomly hit to bring in the second. Every coin or drum that lands resets the respin count to three.

Coins with a money value stay on the grid until the feature ends, whereas coins that hit with multipliers leave on the next spin. When the feature finishes, the values of all coins are added up and paid, and an additional 1,000x is awarded if either grid is filled with coins.

Features

  • Coin drums. A gold drum and a silver drum gather the matching coins, and the drums can randomly hand out Hold & Spin, an instant prize of up to 1,000x, or a multiplier of up to 10x for that spin's wins.
  • Twin Hold & Spin grids. Each coin colour has its own 5x3 grid. One or both can run, and drum symbols can switch on the second grid while only one is active.
  • Base-game coins carried in. Up to eight of either coin from the base game are placed on their own grid with random money values, then the three initial respins start.
  • Full grid award. Filling either grid with coins adds 1,000x on top of the coin values paid when the feature ends.

How to play the free demo

  1. Pick a stake and count symbols across the whole 5x5 grid; 7 or more of one kind anywhere form a win.
  2. Follow the two drums above the reels. Each landing coin goes to its drum, and the drums may award a prize, a multiplier for that spin or the bonus itself.
  3. Once Hold & Spin starts in the Lucky Drums 88 demo, see whether one grid or both are running; with just one active, drum symbols can randomly hit to add the second, and each coin or drum that lands puts the respins back to three.

Why try the Lucky Drums 88 demo

The demo shows how the base game feeds the bonus here: coins the drums collect, up to eight of each colour, begin Hold & Spin already on their 5x3 grid with money values attached. You can also see what happens while only one 5x3 grid is running, when drum symbols can randomly land and add the second.
