Slot Machine

Slot Machines are a type of mini-game in Stardew Valley. They are found in the Casino.

The player can bet either 10 or 100 Qi coins when using a slot machine. If the results match one of the winning lines, the player receives a multiple of their bet. If there is no match the player loses their bet. Luck has an effect on gambling odds when using the slot machines.

The slot machines have certain patterns that can be exploited. By betting 100 when expecting a win and 10 when expecting a loss, you can quickly obtain enough Qi coins to buy an item from the shop. The order of the patterns may vary depending on your luck.

On a day with a little Luck there are three patterns that occur in some order:

• 16 losses then W-L-W-L-W-L-W
• 14 losses then W-L-W-L-W-L-W-L-W
• 14 losses then W-L-W-L-W-L-W

From playing 8 repetitions of the above patterns (14 or 16 losses followed by 4 or 5 W/L) the 5 W/L happened once. The highest observed match at the time was 3x shells.

On a day where the spirits are displeased this pattern was observed:

• 12 losses then W-L-W-L-W-L
• 16 losses then W-L-W-L-W-L
• 18 losses then W-L-W-L-W-L
• 18 losses then W-L-W-L-W-L
• 16 losses then W-L-W-L-W-L
• 18 losses then W-L-W-L-W-L
• 18 losses then W-L-W-L-W-L
• 18 losses then W-L-W-L-W-L
• 18 losses then W-L-W-L-W-L

The highest observed match at the time was 3x parsnips.

Starting a new round of slot play will require data-sort-value="300">300 (18 losses x 10 = 180 + 100 high bet).
