The McMurphy's

It’s easy to forget about family values these days, when we live a fast, dynamic life which doesn’t leave much room for social interaction with our family. If you’re among the majority which needs a reminder of an ordinary, and sometimes a bit crazy family life, and at the same time you like to play online slots, there’s a great release coming from Sheriff Gaming’s factory of 3D slots, which can only be found on the websites of the finest Sheriff Gaming casinos. And thanks to the fact that “The McMurphys” are a typical family, we will all find a part of our own family tree in it.

This is a five-reel, 20 payline slot, and it tells us a story about a family on a trip around the world. “The McMurphys” consist of seven members: Mum and Dad who have two kids, a boy and a girl, but also live with Grandpa and dumb Uncle, and keep a dog as a pet. On each win these colorful symbols come alive and show a bit of their character. In addition, the creators of the game introduced some special symbols and features which should improve your winning odds a bit: so there is a wild symbol, a scatter and free spins. True, some other slots offer more special features, but the ones in “The McMurphys” in return can be quite generous, thus somewhat compensating for the fact that they are scarce and that they are often difficult to get.

The bet amounts on offer in this colorful slot are numerous; since the denominations start at $0.01 and move up to $5, and it’s possible to place a maximum of 5 coins per payline, the range is enormous, going from $0.01 to $500 per spin. And this is something that will certainly fit both highrollers and lowrollers equally.

Special Symbols and Features:

As mentioned above, there aren’t many special symbols in “The McMurphys.” Also, one can really feel the lack of multipliers, which don’t seem to appear in Sheriff Gaming’s 3D slots at all. But that’s not all – there’s a problem with the scatter symbol, as well. Namely, it doesn’t work like a typical scatter, triggering a bonus round wherever it appears, but it’s conditioned to appear along an active payline in order to take you to free spins. In addition, considering the time and money it takes to get to the bonus rounds, the number of free spins you get is pretty miserable (you get 3, 6, or 9 free spins for 3, 4, or 5 scatters respectively). Yet, the “The McMurphys” designers thought of a way of improving the feature, so they added “Extra Bonus

Drops” symbol to the bonus round, which allows you to win additional spins, as well as free spins bonus symbols and scatters, which represent the photos from the family’s voyages and pay pretty well.

And a slot wouldn’t be a slot without an interesting wild symbol. And there’s nothing wrong about this one, too. This means that it works as it should – it appears everywhere on the screen, and it replaces all other regular symbols. It is embodied in the youngest member of the McMurphys, a little restless boy who can think of nothing but football and music.

Thinking about it, “The McMurphys” was a rather interesting slot to play. It does take a while to get the bonus round, but once you do, it gets much more exciting and rewarding. Apart from this, the great side of this slot is that it may bring about some good memories, or perhaps stimulate you to create new ones. And memories, we all know, are priceless…
