Chapters
The host starts at 5 cents per spin, costing $3.75 per spin, to keep the spin amount relatable for low-budget players.
He performs 100 spins on two different machines to gauge line hits and bonus frequency, as a machine can be good or bad at any time.
The size of progressive coins and balls does not affect the chance of hitting; they can trigger at any time regardless of bet size.
A $250 maxi win occurs on the first machine, demonstrating the potential for big wins even at low denominations.
Normally, the host would advise taking the win and walking away, but the video aims to test the slot over the full 100 spins.
Free games can take many spins to trigger, and the host advises not to chase them.
A second maxi win occurs, totaling $500 in maxi wins on the first machine at 5 cents.
The progressive jackpot values change based on denomination and bet multiplier, a feature the host appreciates.
The host explains that typical bonus returns are around 100 times the bet, and players should have realistic expectations.
On the second machine at 1 cent, the return is poor, with few line hits and no bonuses triggered.
The host concludes that Raging Red is not a bankroll-building slot; line hits are weak, but the locking feature and bonuses can make up for it. He got two maxis on one machine but nothing on the other.
Raging Red offers exciting potential with its locking features and progressive jackpots, but its weak line hits make it a high-variance game best suited for players willing to chase bonuses. The host's dual-machine test shows that outcomes can vary dramatically, reinforcing the importance of realistic expectations.

[01:00] I do something called Slots Today Pastor Play and I test out new slots. Play and I test out new slots. Oh, what's this?
[01:15] All right, that's pretty cool. I like that.
[01:32] try out new slots so you don't have to. This is to give you a better idea of what to expect when you see this game when you're at the casino. We do 100 spins because that's going to give us a
[01:44] feel of what the line hits look like, how frequent the bonuses are. And I do it on two different machines because at any point in time a machine could be good.
[01:56] Aw, that would have been great to get that maxi. No. Uh but like I said, a machine can be at any time good or bad. So, I like to I'll do is try either different denominations,
[02:14] different bet multipliers, or both. Just kind of depending on what the uh the price looks like at each. I try to the price looks like at each. I try to keep the spin amounts relatable.
[02:27] keep the spin amounts relatable. Don't want to do anything too crazy big.
[02:45] progression. So, it doesn't matter how big it is. It can go off at any time. The game rules will tell you that the size of those coins and balls do not matter. So, please, please do not chase
[02:59] matter. So, please, please do not chase them. job on the graphics. This thing is really, really cool
[03:13] This thing is really, really cool looking. of this middle column locking reel. these uh
[03:27] these machines were the first ones to really start that.
[03:42] gotten any of the free games? What do you think about it?
[04:11] blueberries games is that when you get into the bonus it tends to tends to be really good. So it does make up for those dead spins.
[04:34] Oh. Oh. Oh, we got it.
[04:52] Colossal win. Absolutely colossal win. Look at that, $250 maxi.
[05:04] multiplier. Nice. those actually change based on your denomination and your bet multiplier.
[05:16] Which is really cool. I like that they do that.
[05:33] take the win and walk away, but this video is all about testing out this spins, see how she plays.
[05:52] >> But normally I would tell you to stop, take what take a win when you're up.
[06:37] about when I was saying that in the line hits aren't going to be that good, but that locking feature and the free games that locking feature and the free games tend to make up for that.
[07:08] There he was. He's just hanging out above that locking feature. above that locking feature. See if you drop down. Set it off. Oh.
[07:31] done a few spins. Those free games can take forever to trigger. Again, do not chase them.
[07:56] Sorry, a little hard to control the camera sometimes.
[08:12] So, I always put my Hey, we got them again. Come on, do something good. Oh, that was a cool little little extra one. Oh, he's doing it again. Oh, what
[08:26] one. Oh, he's doing it again. Oh, what is going on here? We are back up above our starting points. I like it.
[08:54] Probably not what I would call a bankroll building game. But, I like the music. I like the graphics. Just got to see what that free games does.
[09:12] you've had any success on this game. What's been your biggest win?
[09:25] having low-budget family members come up and say hello. Have to keep stopping the and say hello. Have to keep stopping the video. y'all come up and say hello. I will always
[09:39] do what? Oh! Please come up, say hello. I love talking to each and every one of you.
[10:09] Okay. Oh, okay.
[10:34] Colossal win. Yes, indeed. Heck, yeah. game with profit. That's what I like to see.
[10:54] I love these graphics, too. This is This is so cool.
[11:14] normally, I would say stop, take the win, and walk away. Two maxis. That's incredible.
[11:35] Now we just got to get that free games. We got a few spins left to get it. I know, I definitely got to say I'm digging this game.
[11:49] digging this game. Yeah, there he is.
[12:14] Just keep giving me those. Just keep me ahead. next machine, we should just be up for the session, the session, no matter what.
[12:35] Ah, I thought it was going off there for a second. Oh.
[13:22] All right. Well, let's move on over one and see how this next one performs.
[13:36] let me show you this. You can see as we move through the different bet multipliers, all of those change.
[13:51] feature that they have on these. I really like that. Um there's a lot of games where you're betting five max bet five, six, $10 at minimum at like 1 cent, and those progressives don't change.
[14:10] Fingers crossed, we have as much luck on this one as we did the first one.
[14:22] what we had happen on the first one is probably the exception to the rule. I could be wrong. I don't play this game a lot. This is really my first time playing it. So,
[14:34] I could be wrong. Those might hit quite often. make sure y'all could hear this and drown out some of those uh copyrights.
[14:52] When you're playing a game, I always want you to keep in mind expected return. So, like a lot of these bonuses nowadays, you can bet back. And then the big one you can expect is
[15:07] about is about 100 times your bet back. a dollar 50. a dollar 50. There he is. There's our man.
[15:22] I I if he's going to trigger the free games. It's a little bit more emerald keep us going.
[15:43] It's all about having realistic expectations from these games. Can you win something incredible? Absolutely. But you know, the average gameplay is going
[15:56] you know, the average gameplay is going to result in anywhere from about 52 That's going to be that big one you're going to see the most often.
[16:25] Okay. I would have expected a little bit more for five of a kind. But seems to be the way things are going these days.
[16:54] Honestly, it's keeping us alive. Can't complain too much.
[17:26] that's on the opposite side. It has this lumberjack and some beavers. I think I might play that after this. I've seen Casino Kelly play it and she did pretty well on it.
[17:48] that the minimum bets are really really high. At least for the low budget player. I feel like a lot of these games coming There he is. Come on, something big,
[18:00] There he is. Come on, something big, buddy. That's not big. That's twice my bet back.
[18:47] at least on 1 cent the return of player is pretty terrible so far.
[18:59] such a short amount of spins. But, line hits wise like not the best blueberry.
[19:18] >> So, I would say if you've got a smaller bankroll and uh this probably isn't the best game for you. This might be one of those games where you know, you put in enough to do
[19:33] you know, you put in enough to do you know, 25 to 50 spins. Just hoping to get those free games, hoping to get that locking feature.
[19:56] Come on, Mr. Bull. We're going to need some more help than this.
[20:09] playing in general for quite some time. Hey, there we go.
[20:25] cent uh bet multi- or bet denomination is kind of the the sweet spot for the low budget player. Now, budget player. Now, with inflation
[20:40] a lot of these games minimum bets are starting off at, you know, 1 cent, $1, 2 starting off at, you know, 1 cent, $1, 2 cent, $2, 5 cent, $5. So, it is harder for that low budget player to get into those higher
[20:53] player to get into those higher denominations. Um they've been around for so long for a reason.
[21:07] entry point at those higher denominations for low at those higher denominations for low budget players.
[21:27] We're going to need a little bit more than that though to save us. I would absolutely take another Maxi at this point.
[21:49] Really want to see what those free games are all about.
[22:04] shark game. Uh, and honest There he is. Come on, something big, buddy. We need some help. Okay. All right, we got a bunch.
[22:19] Ugh. I was hoping for a little bit more than that.
[22:31] we're going to need some serious magic here.
[22:46] Ugh. Last spin, y'all.
[23:01] Red, we tried it on that machine and on this machine. We did really good at minimum bet at 5 cents and then not so good at second bet multiplier at a penny. Hey, that's the way it goes, but that's why I like doing this. That's why
[23:15] I do it on two different slot machines and at two different denominations or bet multipliers. I want to show you that at any point in time a slot can be really good or be really bad and overall
[23:29] I like it. Right? I like how Blueberry does their games. The expanding reels, the cool lock feature, those coins. We got two minors. got two minors. $500 worth of minors at 5 cent. Crazy.
[23:43] We didn't get anything at a penny, but that's just how it is sometimes. I would wouldn't call this a bankroll building slot by any means. As you saw the line hits are pretty bad. Really is about getting that lock
[23:57] feature or getting into the bonus, which we didn't get. I'm a bit disappointed in that. They seem to keep getting into the bonus, but not us. But that's okay. before. Do you like it? Would you recommend it? Is there any other slots
