Loose Caboose Slots
This wonderful and inventive game is at enthusiastic and cartoony take on the train theme the slot machine genre. There are not that many games in the market with this theme, which makes Loose Caboose stand out quite a bit from the rest. Whether it is the colorful art style or the clever drawings, there is a lot here to like, and plenty to suck you right in. There is not much that we disliked about this game, though the colorful graphics may be a bit much for some. If you count yourself among that group, we recommend that you lighten up, because it really is a joy to play.
There is a lot that they got right in this game, and they clearly tried very hard. It is a high quality production all around, and we think everyone should hop on board for a trip on this wonderful money train!
What is This Slot About?
This game is about hopping on the money train for a good long ride to being Rich, happy, and all the other things that go along with that! It is somewhat like they took the cartoon show Thomas the tank engine and turned it into a slot machine game. We actually think they did a better job than that cartoon itself, which is not so much a cartoon as it is a mixture of cartoons and real people. The style here is far better, and the graphics are way more thought out that they were there. So if you have a love of that theme growing up, you can rest assured that you will surely enjoy this game just as much, if not more!
How Does the Game Actually Play?
You would never think to describe a game about trains as fast and furious, but that is the best way to describe what real time gaming has put together here. Although there are five reels and 25 pay lines, it's still manages to go pretty quickly because of some turbo play features, and the wonderful cash train feature. Of course, you can bet about as little as just one penny, or risk it all at five dollars a coin. This takes things up all the way to $125 a trip, which is how we tend a ride anytime we hop on this particular train.
There are also plenty of things to match, such as the usual suits of playing cards, a train caboose itself, a old man engineer, a wonderful lady he likely has a crush on, tickets to the show itself, a guard there is likely trying to keep you from stealing all the money and running, and a train itself.
How's it Look?
This is where the game really hits the tracks, and we love everything about the way that it looks. The colors here are so bright, vibrant, and inviting that it puts a smile on your face and will surely brighten your day. We say this as it did for us, because as we write this review, it is authentically smoky, and this is the brightest thing we have to look forward to! Everything on the reals themselves look expertly drawn, and it is a professional production all around. Even the background is wonderfully done, which is not usual for a game of this kind. Usually, the backgrounds are drawn by a separate artist, and look like absolute crap, if we are going to be nice. That is not the case here, which is expertly done from head to toe, including the user interface and the font choices. They really did a wonderful job here, and spared no expense.

We We Didn't Much Care For
- No progressive jackpot
Who is the Ideal Audience of this Particular Slot?
This game is for anyone that appreciates well-made slots, and loves cartooning when it is done well. Everything comes together wonderfully here, and it is a good fit for anyone with a heart. If you are Gothic, or emotionally withdrawn, you will likely find everything this game tries to do to fall on the deaf year. That is your fault, however, and not this wonderful train of a game!
Summing it All Up - Should You Play This Fine Game?
Summing it up, Loose Caboose Slots is the best game about trains on the market, next to Orient Express. We still think they did a wonderful job, even comparing it to that absolutely amazing game, which is saying something. Whether you like bright colorful graphics or a sense of enthusiasm and the games that you play, you will find a lot to like in this game. We love everything about it, and have a hard time coming up with things to hate. Sure, there is no progressive jackpot, but there is still plenty of love that went into it, and plenty to love just the same.
Unless you have better things to do, we really do think that hopping on this game right now would be the best use of your time. They absolutely hit it out of the park with this one, and it is one you will likely look back on family when you walk away. That is assuming you can walk away, however, as it is a game that does draw you win very hard. Once you're strapped into the train, it is hard to get off, as you start winning money the longer you stay on. It is much like a real train in that way, paved with gold, and with money flowing out of every car. That's a nice thought if you think about it! That's what we are going for every time we play.
