A Japanese classroom is the setting here. On the reels are love letters, diaries, a bento box full of sushi, a boy and 4 girls. The best of the quartet is the girl backed by the red flower who pays 7, 11 or 20 times your stake if you land 3, 4 or 5 on adjacent reels. There’s also a wild that replaces everything bar the scatter. Our Days comes with 2 extras.
Re-Spins feature - this becomes active following every winning spin. The successful symbols lock in position and the reels spin again. These re-spins continue until no new matching symbol joins the winning cluster.
Free Spins feature - the main feature round is triggered by landing 3, 4 or 5 scatters on the same spin. You’ll play 8, 10 or 12 free spins with all of the lower value symbols removed. The reels are made up of higher value symbols and wilds only. Every win will also trigger the Re-Spins feature.
This is a very gentle game as far as variance is concerned. The variance is very low with maximum wins of just 50 times your stake on each spin! Pastel shades dominate the manga style visuals which are perfectly fine. The features are solid too. The streak re-spins and the main free spins round both offer hardly anything really.
Why does the whole thing feel so awkward then? Microgaming said that it wants to capture “the nostalgia of first love … The years when shy glances in the classroom and a simple touch was everything.” That seems a totally bizarre proposition for an online slot game. We don’t know what Microgaming were thinking with Our Days. I would strongly advise you stick to tried and tested favourites like Immortal Romance or Thunderstruck II.
