While playing Oops! we had a feeling like we are playing a slot game from an very experience provider because it was very smooth in terms of animation timing, sound effects, quick stops, transitions etc. We played the demo version with 1 euro bet and played 100 spins, in the end we left with 97.10, it was really rewarding. Although the 3 flu feature is very rare means they were landed 2-3 times in 100 spins. Lab Rat scatter was very frequent but we were not able to trigger Pandemic Spins.
“Shady Lady has firmly established their reputation through bold titles like Devil’s Finger and Brainwashed, taking creative risks few other studios dare attempt. Whether you share this perspective or not, one undeniable fact remains despite featuring sophisticated mechanics, slots with real-world themes—like Oops!—tend to be remarkably understanding to players.”

Impatient players can explore various purchase options including ‘best of’ spin packages and Loot Boxes. With a well-distributed 96.28% RTP across all game modes and potentially achievable 20000X max wins at higher mutation levels during Pandemic Spins, the game offers substance to match its style.”
