Today we will talk about Double Sixteen slot, a slot machine game from BetSoft that was quite a pleasant surprise.
As you can tell from the looks, Double Sixteen slot is a classic pub-style fruit machine with an old-school layout and machine and traditional orange, limes, plums, grapes, cherries, watermelons, Bars and Treasure coffin symbols. My first impression when I saw this slot was not all that positive, and I thought it would be a dull game to play, but boy, was I wrong!

Double Sixteen slot features.
A closer look at the Double Sixteen slot first revealed an interesting fact about the game: the number of winning symbols.
In this game, there are just eight different symbols which payout for matching just three of those symbols. This translates into higher chances of winning as there is a lower number of possible combinations.
Double Sixteen's next attractive feature is the winning combinations' payouts.
If you look closely at the bottom of the game, you will find seven buttons, four of which are the bet size and paylines buttons you can choose from.
From this, you can see that the minimum stake in the game is five credits bet on four paylines, and the highest stake possible is 40 credits bet on 32 winning lines.
So what? If you look at the paytable, you'll see that the lowest-paying win line combination is 40 credits. This means that unlike with many other slot games, like when you play Double Bubble Slot, you will never get a payout below your stake amount.
If you're playing small coins, five credits on four paylines, the minimum you can win, apart from not hitting a winning combo, is 40 credits. Now that's pretty neat!
Another exciting feature of Double Sixteen slots is that you can build winning combinations even if the matching symbols don't go from left to right from the leftmost reel. For example, you get three-of-a-kind Cherries on reels 2, 3 and 4.
Usually, this would not count as a winning pay line because you'd need the matching symbols to start on reel one but not with Double Sixteen, so that's another check mark for the old-looking fruit machine from BetSoft.
What are ‘Meters' in a fruit machine?
What are ‘Meters' in a fruit machine?
Something else worth noting is the so-called ‘Meters'. These 10 meters are located at the top right of the game and are not there just to fill the space. Every time you get a win on the reels, your winnings are divided up among these ten meters.
Every time you play with coins in these meters, you will be awarded an additional coin on Meter 1 before each spin. The implication is that every spin would cost you one credit less. So if you bet 40 coins, then in reality, that spin is costing you 39 coins. You can see this in action in our Double Sixteen slot video here.
The Double Sixteen feature comes into play when you decide to stake 40 coins on all 32 paylines. Both the bottom and top slot games have 16 paylines, so when you play full coins, you activate those 2 x 16 paylines fruit machine games for 32 paylines, hence the Double Sixteen slot.
When you bet five credits, you play with four win lines in the bottom slot game using three reels. Betting ten credits will activate eight paylines in the bottom game using all four reels.
Increase your stake to 20 credits, and you will play with sixteen winning line combinations, with the bottom slot game fully active. And lastly, if you bet maximum coins 40 coins, then both slot games at the bottom and top are activated with all 32 paylines for maximum action.
Well, there you have it: the's classic old Double Sixteen slot machine from BetSoft. As you can see, there are no free spins, bonus games, or all the bells and whistles of the usual video slot game, but it is a fun and rewarding game.
