Lucky Larry’s Lobstermania 4 Link & Super Sally’s Shrimpmania 4 Link Advantage Play Strategy

Lucky Larry’s Lobstermania 4 Link and its companion, Super Sally’s Shrimpmania 4 Link, feature Loot Awards above reels two, three and four. The Loot Awards are activated when two coins are collected in that reel.

• This is one of my favorite new advantage games to come along in a while. Ploppies have a hard time understanding how it works, so it’s common to find profitable plays.

• Getting multiple Loot Awards activated at the same time can lead to huge wins.

• The Loot Awards trigger more frequently on the higher bet levels.

• The coins you collect to fill the Loot Awards aren’t blockers—they just appear as sub-symbols on the bottom of the regular symbols.

• The coins appear frequently, so there usually isn’t a huge investment required to play the game through.

• During the Bonus Loot Award, you can choose between the bucket bonus or free games bonus. Both options pay the same on average. The bucket bonus is less volatile and usually gives a solid payout. The free games bonus is hit or miss—I’ve had huge 100x wins before but also have gotten totally shafted.

• After a Loot Award is completed, it will be replaced by another Loot Award that isn’t the same as the previous one and is also different from the Loot Awards on the other two reels. If two Loot Awards are replaced, it doesn’t guarantee a Bonus or Jackpot will appear—it usually just swaps the Loot Award from the other completed reel and then replaces the other one with whatever one isn’t showing on the unfinished reel.
