Pick & Click Slot Examples
1) Match-3 for jackpots (split/cut and collect 3 identical ones)
Hall of Gods (NetEnt) - with 3 bonus characters, the screen with shields starts; hammer "break" the shields and collect 3 identical values (coins or one of three jackpots). This is a classic pick & match-3.
2) Pick-until-Collect (select prizes until "Collect "/end)
Blood Suckers (NetEnt) - bonus "room with coffins": click on the coffins, get prizes; round ends on poor selection (bats). Typical pick-until-collect.
Blood Suckers 2 (NetEnt) - continuation with Hidden Treasure Bonus mode (same principles: peak disclosure with sudden completion of the round).
3) → Frispin modifiers (pick for boosters → then FS)
Secret of the Stones (NetEnt) - select stones in front of the freespins: additional spins, multipliers, wild drums, etc. are hidden behind them (in fact, pick modifiers before starting FS). A MAX version with the same principle is also available.
Golden Fish Tank (Yggdrasil) - before FS, manually "select" several amplifications (add. Wilds, fixed characters, multipliers): this is formally a pick & click configurator of freespins.
4) Multi-level pick game (multiple stages, + 1 pick, transition thresholds)
Guns N" Roses (NetEnt) - Crowd Pleaser bonus: Multi-level Pick & Click with coin prizes, chance to get + 1 pick and/or freespins when thresholds are reached.
5) "Adventure" pick-up scenes and quests
Jackpot Raiders (Yggdrasil) - a slot with several jackpots and interactive pick- & -click episodes (chests, route selection) built into the quest structure.
6) Classic "gifts/chests" (land-based heritage, online versions)
Super Jackpot Party (WMS/Light & Wonder) - legendary pick-until-collect: open gifts before "Party Pooper" drops out; additional features (multipliers, additional elections) are possible.
Jackpot Party/Jackpot Block Party (WMS) - variations of "holiday" peak bonuses with a choice of gifts/zones and instant prizes.
7) Classic "treasure chests"
Mermaids Millions (Microgaming/Games Global) - with 3 + chest symbols, Treasure Bonus is launched with clicks on chests (peak reveals with fixed prizes).
Avalon II (Microgaming/Games Global) is a series of quest rounds, among which there are pick & click mini-games (part of the "Grail Bonus").

1. Look for clear signs in the info menu: Bonus Game, Pick & Click, Pick-until-Collect, Match 3, Crowd Pleaser, Treasure Bonus, Chest/Shield smash.
2. Understanding the scenario = understanding the variance:
- match-3 → rare large peaks (jackpots/large coins);
- pick-until-collect → series of small/medium prizes to the "end";
- ■ FS → value in typed modifiers;
- multilevel pick → threshold rewards, + 1 pick, stop risk.
- 3. Check the calculation base (from the total bet), bonus cap and RTP option at the operator (at one Title
- and there are several RTP profiles).
- 4. For honest implementation, the following are important: server-authoritative calculation, cliff recovery, idempotency of clicks and round logs (usually stated in the rules/FAQ of the game from the vendor).
