Hi Folks,

A YouTube subscriber asked me this question:

Other than Mental what other NLC games would you recommend, I'm tired of Pragmatic now want to try my luck on NLC.

Favorite Games​

I primarily play Bushido and Mental, with occasional sessions on Warrior Graveyard when I'm looking for something different. All of these slots are NoLimit City Titles.

Feature Buys​

Small Bankroll (R200)​

When working with a modest deposit of around R200, I typically start by purchasing 3-5 features at R30 each on Mental, then switch over to Bushido xWays and follow the same approach.

If I'm fortunate enough to build my balance up to R500 or more from these initial buys, I'll return to Mental and reinvest those winnings into 3-4 'Lucky Draw Buys.' I continue this rotation until my balance returns to my starting amount. This approach has resulted in several significant wins for me over time.

Larger Bankroll (R1000)​

With a more substantial bankroll of around R1000, I adjust my strategy accordingly. I begin with Lucky Draw buys on Mental and then transition to Bushido for its lowest feature option at R2 betting level, which costs approximately R150 per feature buy. I adjust the number of buys based on how the games are performing during that session.

For instance, when playing Mental with the R92 Lucky Draw buy, I typically limit my losses to R300 before switching games. Since Bushido features are more expensive at R150 each, I generally restrict myself to about 2-3 buys before reassessing.

Base Game Play after Feature Buys​

To maximize opportunities (especially after a low win on the feature buy), I'll often play 5 regular spins at R4-R8 bet levels. These occasional base game spins have triggered free spins or decent base game hits several times for me, even if they're just 5 spins.

These unexpected bonuses can boost your bankroll and provide additional opportunities to hit something substantial.

Pure Base Game Approach​

Though I generally advise against chasing features, I implement a rotation system when I decide to play the base game. I allocate between R500-R1000 and run 50 autoplay spins (at R2-R8 bet levels) on Mental before moving to Bushido and then to Warrior Graveyard (Try other slots too - Don't just stick to my list).

By limiting myself to 50 spins per game before rotating, I maintain discipline while increasing my chances of triggering free spins across multiple games, which helps sustain my playing session.

Other Recommendations​

I recently played Hermes Fortunes from EGT and found it quite rewarding. It resembles Gates of Olympus but offers a considerably more engaging base game experience. My approach with this slot is to play around 50 spins using the enhanced bet and then move on to something else before returning later.

This approach has yielded good results—my very first feature buy on this game for R300 resulted in a substantial R4.1k win. I've noticed that feature buys on this game tend to be rather volatile—they're either quite disappointing or generous. For this reason, I generally prefer sticking to the base game with enhanced bets of R3-R5 for 50 spins, then rotating to other EGT titles before returning.

Advice​

The most crucial elements for sustainable slot play are patience and persistence. It's extremely important to maintain your composure and avoid doing large bonus buys or base-game bets when experiencing a losing streak.

Emotional decisions almost invariably lead to disaster. From my experience, I've learned that significant wins can arrive at any time—sometimes early in a session or sometimes after several hours of play. The unpredictable nature of luck means that maintaining consistent bet sizes and having realistic expectations are your best tools for long-term enjoyment.

Note: While I'm sharing my approach to playing these games, this should not be considered a winning strategy. Slot outcomes are ultimately determined by random number generators, and no method can overcome the built-in house edge.

I would be interested to hear how others approach their slot play!

Thank you, thisbis very insightful.
I know not all strategies works the same for everyone but once I made a deposit I will try it out and let you know how my luck goes
 
Quick question?
How does the Jackpot race work?
Days, times and sites it takes place on

Hi AJ,

Based on my limited understanding:

The Habanero Jackpot Races run during specific timeframes, typically from 8pm to 10pm, though the days and times may vary depending on the bookmaker. There's a minimum bet requirement.

During these races, prizes are randomly awarded to players who are playing the participating games. These qualifying games are usually highlighted on the website, or you'll be able to see the jackpot indicator directly in the game interface.

The races are available at bookmakers that offer Habanero games. I've seen them at Hollywoodbets, Supabets and I think Sunbet.
