87 bd Slots — Complete Guide from Choosing a Game to Winning Strategy
From classic three-reel slots to Megaways slots with millions of paylines — everything you need to know about slot game types, volatility, RTP and how to play within a budget.
The Four Types of Slots and Their Differences
Even though many people think all slot games are the same, they can actually be divided into four distinct categories. Each has different mechanics, payout structures and risk levels. To understand which type suits you best, you first need to know the characteristics of each.
Classic Slots
Three reels, usually 1–5 paylines. Simple gameplay with cherry, seven and bar symbols — ideal for getting started.
Simple MechanicsVideo Slots
Five reels, up to 20–1024 paylines, with bonus rounds and free spins. Gates of Olympus and Fortune Tiger fall into this category.
Bonus FeaturesMegaways Slots
The height of each reel changes on every spin, so up to hundreds of thousands of payways can be active in a single spin. Bonanza Megaways is an example.
Dynamic PaywaysJackpot Slots
With fixed or progressive jackpots — a small portion of each bet is added to a pool and one winner takes the entire pool.
Big PrizesUnderstanding the Inner Structure of Video Slots
In video slots, more important than the number of reels and symbol combinations are the special symbols — Wild, Scatter and Multiplier. A Wild symbol can substitute for any regular symbol, increasing the chances of a win. When a certain number of Scatter symbols appear, free spins or a bonus game is activated.
RTP (Return to Player) is the theoretical rate of how much money returns on average per ৳100 wagered over the long term. For example, Fortune Tiger's maximum RTP is 96.81% — meaning that over the long term, an average of ৳96.81 is expected back for every ৳100 bet. However, this is not a guaranteed outcome for any single session.
Games like Mahjong Ways feature a cascade mechanic where winning symbols disappear and new symbols drop in — making multiple wins possible from a single spin. In 87 bd's casino section, this type of game is available from many studios including PG Soft, Pragmatic Play and JILI.
Three Criteria for Choosing the Right Slot
With thousands of slots available, picking one should not be a random decision. Keeping three things in mind — volatility, theme and budget — will make the experience much more satisfying.
Volatility
Low-volatility games deliver small wins frequently — good if you want to keep your balance going for longer. High-volatility games can go through long dry spells before a big payout. Wild Bandito and San Quentin xWays are examples of high-volatility games.
Theme and Mechanics
Mythology, fruits, Asian folklore or adventure — a theme has no direct effect on gameplay but helps maintain focus. Make sure you understand how a game's special mechanics (cascade, cluster, Megaways) work before you start.
Budget and Bet Size
Every slot has a set minimum and maximum bet. For a small budget, choose games that offer low-bet options and decide in advance how much you are willing to spend in a session. Setting a budget in line with the responsible gaming guidelines is the wisest approach.
RTP List of Popular Slots
The table below shows the maximum RTP for some games available at 87 bd. The higher the RTP percentage, the higher the theoretical rate of return for the player — but this is a long-term average, not a guarantee for any single session.
| Game Name | Developer | Maximum RTP |
|---|---|---|
| Fortune Mouse | PG Soft | 96.96% |
| Mahjong Ways 2 | PG Soft | 96.95% |
| White Rabbit Megaways | Big Time Gaming | 97.72% |
| Super Ace | JILI | 97% |
| Fortune Tiger | PG Soft | 96.81% |
| Gates of Olympus | Pragmatic Play | 96.50% |
| Dead or Alive 2 | NetEnt | 96.82% |
| Money Train 2 | Relax Gaming | 96.4% |
RTP figures are theoretical averages — every spin is independent and does not depend on previous results.
Useful Tips for Playing Slots
Start in Demo Mode
Most slots can be played for free in demo mode. Get familiar with the mechanics and features before betting real money.
Set Session Limits
Decide in advance how much you will stop at when winning and how much you will stop at when losing. This is the simplest way to manage your budget.
Avoid Bonus Buys
Some games offer the option to buy into a bonus round directly. This requires a large bet and increases the risk of running through your balance quickly.
Read the Paytable
Each game's paytable contains the value of symbols, the conditions for triggering the bonus and details of special features. Reading it helps you understand many outcomes before they happen.
Keep Your Bet Size Consistent
It is best not to immediately raise your bet after a big loss in an attempt to recover. Doing so drains your balance faster.
Match Your Balance to Volatility
Playing high-volatility games requires a larger balance because reaching a big win may take many spins.
Common Misconceptions and the Truth
Many misconceptions exist about slots. Believing them makes it harder to make sound decisions — so it helps to know the truth.
If a game hasn't paid out for a long time, it will pay big soon
RealityEvery spin is determined independently by an RNG (Random Number Generator). Previous results have no connection to the next spin.
Raising your bet increases your chances of winning
RealityThe size of your bet does not change the probability of winning — it only increases the potential payout amount. The RTP percentage stays the same regardless of bet size.
Playing at a certain time of day leads to more wins
RealityThe time of day has no effect on slot results. An online slot's RNG operates on the same basis 24 hours a day.
Staying on the same game for a long time brings a jackpot
RealityIn a progressive jackpot, funds accumulate in the pool, but who wins it and when is random. How long you have been playing does not determine the outcome.
Seeing a bonus symbol guarantees a win
RealityTriggering a bonus round gives you extra opportunities, but even during free spins or a pick bonus a win is not guaranteed — it is also controlled by the RNG.
A high-RTP game always means you will win more
RealityRTP is a theoretical long-term average calculated over thousands and thousands of spins. A high RTP in a single session does not guarantee any minimum return.

Megaways and Special Mechanics Games
— An imaginary combination of slot reels —
The Megaways mechanic was invented by Big Time Gaming and is now used by many developers under licence. On each spin, each of the 6 reels can show between 2 and 7 symbols, meaning up to 1,17,649 payways can be active in a single spin. Bonanza Megaways has a maximum RTP of 96% and Extra Chilli Megaways has a maximum RTP of 96.82%.
The xWays and xBomb mechanics (a speciality of Nolimit City) are even more complex — in Fire in the Hole xBomb and San Quentin xWays, bomb symbols expand the size of the reels. These games are high-volatility and better suited to players with a larger budget.
PG Soft's Queen of Bounty offers a distinct experience — built around a theme of a mysterious kingdom and valuable prizes, with its own mechanics discussed in detail on that page.
