More and more casinos have started to offer online slots in Canada that work with eCheck. Meaning you can make a deposit at an eCheck casino and use the funds to play slots.
Our team is heavily involved in the industry, so we keep track of new releases and constantly test new slots. We also talk to players from within the community, with popular streamers, and with game developers.
Let’s dive right in and see which slots are the most popular ones right now.
1) Fury of Odin Megaways
If you like the viking mythology, you’ll love Fury of Odin Megaways from Pragmatic Play. It comes with the popular Megaways engine which provides up to 117,649 paylines. The 6 reels have a variable number of symbols on each reel, creating numerous winning combinations.
1-1) Symbols and Features
The high-paying symbols depict Norse gods such as Odin, Thor and Freya. Lower-paying symbols are thematic Norse items. Special features include Tumble Respins which replace winning symbols, expanding Fury Wilds, Mystery Symbols, and Free Spins with increasing multipliers. The game came out in 2022, so it’s still fairly fresh, and more popular than ever.
1-2) Volatility and Payout
Fury of Odin is a highly volatile game. Maybe one of the most volatile ones out there with a hit frequency of 20.51%. The RTP is 95.97% with a maximum payout of 15,000x your bet. Bets range from $0.20 to $100 per spin.
It also has a feature that you can activate that gives you a higher chance of winning. It adds 25% to your bet size, but in return you get better ROI.
1-3) Overall
Overall a really fun game regardless if you like vikings or not. There’s a reason why it’s so popular among the streamers and the gambling community. Basically you get a high variance game with abundant Megaways paylines and super fun in-game features.
2) Le Bandit
If you’re into playful bank robbery themes, Le Bandit from Hacksaw Gaming is a must try game for you. This slot features a mischievous raccoon named Smokey, causing chaos on the streets of urban Paris. The game’s 6 reels and 5 rows offer a cluster pays mechanism for forming winning combinations. This cluster pay system is what has made the game so popular right from the day it launched. I think there isn’t a single one of the bigger slot streamers that hasn’t played this game on their live streams.
2-1) Symbols and Features
High-paying symbols include stuf like raccoon hats and beer mugs, while lower-paying symbols are basic things like cheese and baguettes. You also have something called Super Cascades, which basically remove winning symbols and allow new ones to tumble down. This is the cluster pay feature I mentioned earlier. Then you have the Golden Squares that highlight winning positions. These can be activated by a Rainbow symbol to reveal multipliers and special symbols like Coins and Pots of Gold. Moreover, there are three different bonus or free spins rounds in the game:
- Luck of the Bandit: Triggered by landing 3 FS symbols, awards 8 free spins with persistent Golden Squares.
- All That Glitters Is Gold: Triggered by 4 FS symbols, provides 12 free spins with Golden Squares active throughout.
- Treasure at the End of the Rainbow: Triggered by 5 FS symbols, grants 12 free spins with guaranteed Rainbow symbols on each spin, excluding lower-value Bronze Coins.
2-2) Volatility and Payout
Le Bandit is a medium volatility game with an RTP of 96.34%. The maximum payout is 10,000x your bet. The max bet is up to $100 per spin.
2-3) Bonus Buy Options
Le Bandit offers multiple bonus buy options. This multiple bonus buy option is somewhat unique to Hacksaw Gaming and probably a contributing factor to why they are so popular right now.
- Luck of the Bandit: 100x your bet for 8 free spins.
- All that Glitters is Gold: 250x your bet for 12 free spins.
They also offer “featurespins” that let you hit more frequently:
- Bonushunt Featurespins: This one costs 3x your bet size and makes each spin 5 times more likely to trigger the bonus game.
- Rainbow Featurespins: 50x your bet for guaranteed Rainbow symbols.
2-4) Overall
Le Bandit is a light-hearted game that will get your mood up for the rest of the day. The funny raccoon occasionally throws in funny comments. It’s my personal favorite right now… But I always use the BonusHunt FeatureSpins. Sure, they cost a bit more per spin but significantly increase the hit frequency. I like to win when I play.
3) Slayers Inc
Slayers Inc from Hacksaw Gaming is a cyberpunk style game with extreme volatility. If you’re after the big money, this is the one for you. It offers a unique 6×4 grid with 14 paylines. This game has probably some of the best graphics I’ve seen in a slot until date. Just check the screenshot below.
3-1) Symbols and Features
The high-paying symbols include characters like demons and slayers. Lower-paying symbols are the graphical symbols that kind of look like road symbols. The standout feature is the DuelReels mechanic, where VS symbols expand to trigger duels between slayers, applying multipliers up to 500x and turning the reel wild.
3-2) Bonus Rounds
Slayers Inc is another one of those games that offer several bonus round options:
- Rise of the Syndicate: This bonus offers 10 free spins with an increased chance of landing VS symbols.
- Wild Slayers: The Wild Slayer Bonus round provides 10 free spins where the Slicer mechanic adds a full row of wild symbols to the reels.
- Best of Rise of the Syndicate: This bonus guarantees the activation of both DuelReels and Slicer features on every spin. It offers 10 free spins with explosive win potential.
- Best of Wild Slayers: This feature lets you buy three bonus games for the price of two, and you get to keep the best result.
3-3) Volatility and Payout
Slayers Inc is a game with extreme volatility and with an RTP sitting at 96.25%. The maximum payout is 15,000x the bet. Bets range from $0.10 to $100 per spin. So it’s a game for both casual players and high rollers.
3-4) Overall
If you’re after big wins, there’s no other game I can recommend more. The extreme volatility can lead to life-changing wins if you’re lucky. As a bonus, you get an amazing experience while playing. And the graphics are just mind blowing on this one.
4) Power of Merlin Megaways
Here’s another gem if you’re into high payout slots. The high volatility and the 40,000x max win makes Power of Merlin Megaways the best slot for high rollers. This one can either make you or break you. Well maybe not break you, but it can certainly affect your life if you hit one of those big wins. It’s a Megaways slot from Pragmatic Play, so it offers 117,649 paylines with tons of combinations to win.
4-1) Symbols and Features
The high-paying symbols include Merlin himself, along with magical items such as owls, wands, and potions. Lower-paying symbols are standard card values. Here are the key features of this slot:
- Tumbling Reels: Winning combinations trigger a tumble, where winning symbols disappear, allowing new ones to fall into place, potentially creating consecutive wins.
- Lightning Bolt: This bonus symbol can appear on the horizontal reel, turning random symbols on reels 2-5 into wilds.
- Free Spins: Triggered by landing four or more scatter symbols (the spellbook). You can gamble to win additional spins, with a potential to earn up to 30 free spins. Each tumble during free spins increases a win multiplier by 1x.
- Random Wilds: Adds more wilds to the reels, significantly increasing your chances of winning.
4-2) Volatility and Payout
Power of Merlin Megaways is a high volatility slot with an RTP of 96.09%. It offers a maximum win potential of 40,000x your bet which is crazy if you ask me. It’s one of those high risk high reward games. So when you hit big, you hit BIG. Bet sizes range from $0.20 to $100 per spin just like the other slots we’ve covered so far.
4-3) Bonus Buy Options
Power of Merlin offers a bonus buy feature, just like most of the other popular slots from Pragmatic. Unlike the Hacksaw slots though, Pragmatic Play’s slots tend to only come with one bonus option.
4-4) Overall
Pragmatic Play never disappoints, and Power of Merlin Megaways is among the best slots available right now. The magical theme adds to the excitement for me, and it feels like a big win is always just around the corner with every spin. The bonus buy feature and the stunning graphics make this game a solid top 5.
5) Sweet bonanza
A top 5 roundup about slots isn’t complete without Pragmatic Play’s Sweet Bonanza. This is probably the most played slot game globally right now. It’s a gorgeous candy-themed game that reminds a bit about those addictive mobile games that are available in the app store. Sweet Bonanza features a 6×5 grid and comes with a “pay anywhere” system, meaning you win as long as you land at least eight matching symbols anywhere on the reels.
5-1) Symbols and Features
High-paying symbols are the various candies, while lower-paying symbols are fruits like bananas and grapes. The most remarkable features are:
- Tumbling Reels: After a winning combination, the winning symbols are removed, and new symbols tumble down, potentially creating additional wins.
- Free Spins: Free spins are triggered by landing four or more lollipop scatter symbols, which awards 10 free spins. You can trigger even more free spins by landing more scatter symbols during the feature.
- Rainbow Bomb Multipliers: During the free spins, Rainbow Bomb multipliers (ranging from 2x to 100x) can significantly boost your winnings. Multiple multipliers in a single spin are added together for even larger payouts. This feature is so unique and I love it. I guess it’s one of those features that makes this game so popular.
- Ante Bet Feature: Increases your bet by 25% to double the chances of triggering the free spins feature.
- Bonus Buy: Sweet Bonanza is a bonus buy slot. So you can buy bonus rounds for 100x the bet. Keep in mind though, this feature is disabled if the Ante Bet feature is active.
5-2) Volatility and Payout
Sweet Bonanza is a high volatility slot with an RTP of around 96.51%. The maximum win potential is 21,100x your bet. Bets range from $0.20 to $125 per spin. Slightly higher range than the other slots we’ve mentioned, and this one also pays out very frequently.
5-3) Overall
Sweet Bonanza is the most popular game in the gambling community right now. The cascading style and the Rainbow Bomb multipliers are just so unique and fresh that everyone seems to love it. If you open up kick.com, chances are some live streamer is playing this game right now. A high recommendation from me.
