Funky Time Live

Evolution is back with another live game show titled Funky Time Live. This is a cash wheel-type game with 64 betting segments and a groovy 70s disco aesthetic. It is quite similar to Evolution’s previous release Crazy Time but with a new theme and a few interesting innovations. Besides inspiring you to get up and dance, players also have access to various betting options with different payouts. Multiple bets can be placed on the wheel and you can even win exciting multipliers. That said, the four bonuses are by far the most exciting feature and we cannot wait to dive into them soon.

As for the numbers, whether you bet on the regular segments or the bonuses, you can win a maximum of €500.000 playing Funky Time. The highest calculated RTP value of Funky Time is 95.99%. Payouts can get crazy with a 25:1 ratio for some segments and even a 10.000x multiplier for some bonuses. Without further ado, let us dive into the details in this Funky Time recension.

The crucial part of Funky Time is placing your bets on the chosen segments. When you first fire up this disco-themed wheel game, the wheel will be in the middle, and your chips with different values at the bottom.  The overall goal is to predict which segment out of the 64 available ones the wheel will land on. Each one has a different payout value and hit chance. They are as follows:

• Number 1 Bet – This is a segment marked with 1 and there is a total of 28 Number 1 betting spots the wheel can land on.
• Letter Bet – Next one is the letter bet which consists of the letters spelling out the words Play, Funk, and Time. These words appear twice each so there are 24 letter segments in total.
• Bonus Game – There are 4 bonus games that we will talk about later but for now, know that there are 12 segments representing different bonus games. Six for the Bar game, two for Stayin’ Alive, three for Disco, and one for VIP Disco.

You can place multiple bets on various segments that you choose and think the wheel will land on. Once the betting phase is over, the host will first generate a few multipliers for some random spots on the board. Landing on these will multiply your bet. Then the wheel spins and we hope for the best.

Funky Time also offers simplified betting options of betting on 12 letters or 4 bonuses. Note that 1s and letter bets are instant payouts if you guess them correctly.

Since there are various segments that you can bet on in this groovy Evolution release, there are multiple payouts. Funky Time Live offers 2 instant payout options with potential multipliers and 4 bonus games with different payouts. The random multipliers can apply to bonus games as well.

But before that, you have access to chips with values from €0.1 to €500. You can place a bet on any segment of the wheel with multiple bets available. You can also opt for automatic bets like betting on all 12 letters or all 4 bonuses.

The overall payouts for the segments are calculated in three ways. The Number 1 Bet will give you a 1:1 payout. The Letter Bet will pay you out on a 25:1 ratio. Lastly, the bonus games can give you up to 10.000x the bet. Overall, the maximum amount you can win is €500.000. This grand prize pool is accompanied by various RTP values depending on which segment you bet on. The highest RTP is 95.99% for the Number 1 bet and the lowest one is 95.38% for the VIP Disco bonus.

Now for the fun part. Essentially, there are 5 extra features when you disco with Funky Time live. The first is the random multiplier that applies to random spots before the winning segment is revealed. But the most drastic ones are the 4 bonus games. You activate them by betting on their respective segments and the wheel lands there.

• Bar Bonus – The first game takes you to a special cocktail lounge with a robot bartender. He presents you will three cocktails which you pick one. He then proceeds to fill the cocktails with various random multipliers. You will win your total bet multiplied by your chosen cocktail’s summed-up multiplier. A payout is guaranteed, you just better hope you picked the highest one.
• Stayin’ Alive – This is an action-packed bonus game where you are taken to a ladder with multipliers that increase the higher you climb with your ball. You pick either a green, pink, or orange ball and it represents your winnings as it climbs on the 20-level multiplier ladder with 3 lives. A random action generator determines what your ball does. Actions include 1 or 2 steps down or losing a life. Once all lives are lost you win a multiplier to your bet that your ball reached.
• Disco and VIP Disco – In both of these special bonus games, you will join Mr. Funky on the dance floor. The dance floor is filled with 37, or 63 for VIPs, spots that each have a cash prize or multiplier associated with it. Mr. Funky then dances and moves to random spots collecting rewards until he eventually falls off the stage. You win the total amount of prizes that he has collected during his dance session.

Whatever game you trigger you are in for a good time and the maximum win is €500.000.
