TV production giants Endemol have had plenty of hits over the years. Indeed, some of them have been turned into online gambling slots.

One of the firm's big successes over the years has been Deal or No Deal. The simple game show has a strong gambling element, namely whether to stick with your cash or risk it for a lower amount. So it's the perfect subject matter for an online slot variation.

Endemol's own Internet slot department has delivered several Deal or No Deal titles. And while Deal or No Deal The Dream Factory and Deal or No Deal are still popular, let's look at the Banker's Riches version of the game.

Deal or No Deal The Banker's Riches is a 5-reel online slot that is loosely based on the TV show. But don't confuse it with Blueprint Gaming's own Deal or No Deal What's In Your Box? game, also based on the show.

Deal or No Deal The Banker's Riches: Gameplay & Graphics

If you've ever seen the Deal or No Deal show, you'll know that it's a pretty simple premise. Contestants guarding boxes must play off against one another as a single competitor vows to find the 250,000.00 top prize. At various stages the Banker can make a call and give the contestant a choice to ditch his secured money and go for a deal.

It's that element of luck (and a little gambling thrown in) that is in evidence here. The Deal or No Deal The Banker's Riches online slot from Endemol features a handful of bonus rounds. These do their best to evoke the thrill of playing on the show itself. Possibly, there are some big wins to follow too.

Deal or No Deal The Banker's Riches online slot is played on 5 reels and 3 rows. There are 20 lines, all adjustable, and a solid range of coin bets. 0.01 is the minimum, but most casinos let you bet up to 5.00 per line.

In terms of graphics, they give away a slot that is approaching 10 years of age. But with prizes like te ones on show, who's worrying?

Beat the Banker and Bag Big Jackpots and Bonuses

There is a wild in Deal or No Deal online slots. It's the show's logo and will substitute for all regular icons. Annoyingly, however, there are no wild payouts.

Look out for the telephone scatter. Three or more of these will trigger one of the bonus features.

Banker's Best Offer: The Banker will offer the player 10 cash amounts, one by one. The aim is to pick what you think is the best cash offer. Once you've selected a value, hit the 'Deal' button.

The Reel Banker: This bonus works like free spins, with one simple catch: the spins roll on indefinitely until a Banker symbol lands on Reel 3. We managed to get quite a few spins (10-15) before the Banker finished off our fun.

Deal or No Deal Jackpot: This is where the higher-stakes players can win themselves a progressive. If you are betting all paylines, you will be eligible for one of three progressives. 0.5 percent of the stake is paid towards the progressive pot.

First, choose a lucky box and proceed to open the remaining boxes one by one. Once a cash amount has been revealed it's removed from the board. After six boxes, the Banker makes you an offer. Do you have a deal, or will you continue?

The game continues, with four more offers being made. If your Lucky Box at the end contains the progressive, you could win over 100,000.00. There are three progressives that seed at 10,000.00, 50,000.00, and 100,000.00.

Go Mobile and Beat the Banker on the Move
