Slot Review: Abra-Kebab-Ra!
As the name
implies, Abra-Kebab-Ra is an online slot with a Middle Eastern
theme. A magic lamp figures prominently in the action, as does a
bunch of tasty food. We approve of this title because it avoids the
gross stereotypes of eastern Asians that many other poker machines
have resorted to in the past. It’s actually a quite serviceable
classic slot in the fruit machine style, with smooth gameplay and
dynamic payouts of the type that we would expect from Microgaming.
If you enjoy smoking some hookah from time to type, enjoy the
super-sweet treat of Turkish delight, or simply enjoy singing along
to the Disney version of Aladdin, then this slot might be just the
one for you!
Abra-Kebab-Ra is a three-reel, single-payline slot machine. There is
a single coin allowed per spin, with a variable value from ten cents
to ten dollars. Considering that the top jackpot is a sturdy
thousand coins, the bet-to-payout ratio is simply exceptional on
this title.
The icons on the reels are the typical fruit machine standards:
lucky sevens, and a host of juicy and delicious fruit! You will also
see some icons that are specifically tailored to the theme as well:
some chili peppers, mushrooms, and the jackpot symbol of the
grinning sheiks. There is a Hi/Lo bonus game, in which you can boost
your winnings by guessing whether the next card you draw will have a
value higher or lower than the one shown by the computer. With a
game this great, we don’t know what else you could possibly ask the
genie for!
