OnlinePlinko.com is not blindly rating plinko games and casinos based on how much editors like them or not, but with a structured rating system. On this page, we have put together and broken down how we are rating plinko games and plinko casinos.
We apply a 5-grade evaluation system when reviewing plinko games. To holistically judge how good an online plinko game is, we take a look at 5 aspects of the game and calculate its overall score:
Let's have a look at how we apply scores to each evaluation category and evaluate:
Return To Player (RTP) represents how much a plinko pays out versus how much you stake on the plinko. It's calculated over millions of stakes and gives you an idea of the average return you can expect from the plinko in the long run.
The average RTP of plinko games in general is somewhere between 95% and 96%. We set the medium standard at this range.
The maximum win multiplier is also an important factor to look at, as this varies drastically from one plinko to another. According to our research, the average max multiplier of plinko games ranges from 900x to 2,000x. While crypto plinko tends to have its limit capped at 1000x, that of game provider plinko games can be as low as 100x but also as high as 10,000x.
Plinko is a simple game, which is why having special game features matters. What you typically find on plinko is autoplay, game history and instant bet. However, some outstanding plinko games have additional features like bonus buy options, special game modes, advanced strategy settings, limits for responsible gaming and so on.
While all plinko casinos we list on OnlinePlinko.com operate under a certain licence, which makes sure games are fair, we further assess the safety and fairness of plinko games based on whether it runs on provably fair, the game provider's reputation and history, as well as if the game clearly states important details like RTP.
The game design is also what makes a big difference between a boring plinko game and a recommended one. Many crypto plinko, for example, tend to keep everything simple, from the plinko board to the balls to the animation. On the other hand, those developed by game studios like Turbo Games and Gaming Corps are full of visual effects to very small details, which makes the tedious base game of plinko a lot more entertaining.
Lastly, we take all the above points into consideration and calculate the overall score of a plinko game. 5 is the best score, and plinko with that rating is highly recommended. 1 is the worst rating we give, and plinko with this score probably won't be worth your time, even trying out. You can still play the demo, though.
