Veteran online slots fans may well be familiar with Microgaming’s classic Cool Buck three reel slot machine and the good news is that there’s now a five reel version available to play. The original game featured a character who was a rolled up banknote and he returns in the new game also to award free spins for you lucky players.

Cool Buck is a five reel slot with three rows and ten fixed paylines; the design is quite basic and reminiscent of  the first game with the symbols spinning on a black background within a green frame.

There are three theme-related symbols and these are the golden dollar sign, some stacks of cash and a triple green bar; lower values are the standard 9, 10, J, Q, K and A.

The game’s logo is wild and it can appear stacked on reels three and four in the base game and on all reels in the free spins round; it will replace all others to help form winning combinations except for Cool Buck himself who represents the scatter.

There are two ways to trigger the free spins round in Cool Buck:
