The Design

Elk studios are famous for their attention to detail and Platooners is no exception. Based on a film set you will see camera and lighting equipment around the outside of the reels with the reels themselves overlaying some lush jungle greenery.

As the movie is set during a conflict, expect to see some army based gear such as essential binoculars, dog tags, a hunting knife and a medical pack. These are the higher value symbols and the most lucrative ones are the hunting knife and the dog tags offering 500x and 1,000x the value of your original wager respectively.

The J, Q, K and A are the lower value symbols in the game and they will boost your win by 40 and 120 times depending on how many you get on the reels. All of the information regarding multipliers along with the 178 winning payline combinations can be located in the paytable at the top of the screen.    

How to Play

No matter how much you want to stake Platooners will have an option for you. Bets begin from as little as £0.20, perfect for those playing to a budget and they increase up to a massive £100 per spin for those who are feeling lucky. Clicking on the stack of coins will allow you to customise your betting amount and you will also notice a unique feature called ‘Betting Strategies’. This allows you to choose from a selection of existing strategies that can decrease your bet after a loss, or steadily increase it following a succession of wins.
