  1. Well, they redeemed Slots to some extent which I was hoping they would do. Payouts are better. I activated the M&M Spin 350 and that challenge was completed before the weekly. Though better, I still lost coins over all. Good luck, everyone.

  2. I’m only getting a few coins on each spin but they are not registering towards the required 12K coins needed. it has been activated. What am I missing?

      • So many thanks. I’ve read the directions but nothing is clearer than hearing it from you.

      • Lura….I ran out of coins before winning the challenge….I can buy coins..using my gems…which

        is so Pogo. Do you think they will restock the coins like they did to the other slots games??

  3. I’m not sure whats happening in slots as although I’ve had some wins it hasn’t added to the badge so don’t know if it’s just a glitch or I’ve missed something?

    TIA for any advice

    • Posted my comment before I saw Mickeys so thanks Laua for your post. I didn’t realise it updated after 20 spins.

    • Your progress only updates after 20 spins, 40 spins, 60 spins, 80 spins, etc.

      If you spin less than 20 time you earn nothing. If you spin 28 times you only get credit for the first 20 spins, you lose the last 8 spins.

      Suz

      • Which is yet another way this game is bad, IMO. You are forced to play 20 spins and increments of 20 or else you lose credit. So you’re forced to spend 600, 1200 etc coins whether you win or keep losing. I think I still average about 200 for every 600 spent. That’s a terrible way to set up a game. I’ve gotten a few good spins but it continues to be very poor payouts. I won’t be doing this personal for a long time.

        • And that is hard to maintain at 1 or 2 coins a spin. Pogo made a mess out of this game!

      • Thanks for the reply I am now getting progress for the badge after seeing Laua’s reply, but thanks again

  4. POGO SLOTS:
    I had a stockpile of 8660 coins and have used about half (or 4330 coins).
    Currently my “Coins Won” is about 4000 coins.
    So far, I am not even breaking even with coins used.
    I am only recouping at a rate of 92%.
    I noticed that I had 3 free Power-Ups in each of the categories.
    Out of curiosity, I used an Extra Wilds Power-Up.
    I did NOT benefit from using it.
    I also used an Extra Pick Power-Up and only gained about 50 coins.
    I really do not even see the point of the Win Booster Power-Up,
    as 140% of a 1 coin payout would be 1,4 coins. lol~

    *IMPORTANT FOR PAYOUT PROGRESS:
    In order to receive credit for the coins you win,
    you must spin a total of 20 TIMES.
    There is a BAR ABOVE the SPIN Button.
    As you spin, the bar will begin to fill (in green)
    When it is full (20 spins), you will receive a pop up
    with the total amount of coins you won for that round.
    THAT number will be added towards your progress!
    If you exit the game before filling the Green Bar (20 Spins),
    you will NOT receive any credit for coins won.♥

    • I did spin the 20 times. NOW it’s telling me I have NO coins for 2 1/2 h;ours. WHAT”S THAT??

    • Does anyone know how you get more coins (without spending your own money) on the slots game if you run out while you are playing?

      • wait and you get more free ones in about 6 hours…you get 200. you can wait til morning again and get another 800

  5. The same screen repeated 20 times, not one coin won This is the worse slot game

    • I had the same thing happen…I refreshed the game and it seemed to straighten out….

  6. 2 hour results:

    5,200 Bet

    11,066 Won

    FREE spins and Pickers count as won.

    coins “collected” every 6 hours will NOT count as “won” as challenge states in requirement.

    Good LUCK everyone.

  7. I’ll add this game to my do not play list. In these trying times, since I have put myself in the 2 week quarantine,
    I need something to relax my 80 plus years, not stress me out.

    Good luck to those who have the fortitude and determination to work on this badge.

    Please everyone stay safe.

  8. It took me 740 spins (22,200 coins) to win the badge. I usually do better I only got Picker once a Free Spins about 4 times.

    • Had you been going and collecting coins daily? It is doable but not in a timely manner if you have not been stockpiling coins IMO

  10. I did the Pogo slots and almost ran out of coins// so I had to buy some more to finish… its done
    the payouts are lousy even with bet times 2 …. oh well . i did collect coins…
    gl

  11. This badge is not so bad. It took 1 hour and 45 minutes and thanks to auto-spin I watched an old Clark Gable classic without hardly missing a line. I started with 5458 coins and ended with 7160. A gain of 1712. The lowest I ever got was about 4400. I almost always lose on slot games so this was a delightful surprise.

  12. I’ve been playing Pogo Slots since it’s release so I had plenty of coins. I started with 31,286 after completing the badge I had 26,430 so I did lose a few. But that should soon build up again because I have completed all the quest cards and I now earn 2400 coins every 24hours. Good luck everyone.

  13. I am out of coins and have to wait for the next give away…….I am not sure when as I don’t keep track of time anymore…but the bad news was that I probably would have gotten the 20 time tokens on the next spin and now I have lost it. I can’t buy anymore spins… My dad may be looking down from heaven and if he saw me doing that he would say, just burning money…haha.
    Have a safe day everyone.

    • Lizz,
      Don’t start spinning unless you have 600 coins.
      You have to spin 20 times – 20 times X 30 coins = 600 coins.
      If you stop before the 2o Spins are done, you don’t get anything.
      No use to spin unless you can get through 20 spins.
      Only bet X1, don’t increase it to 2 even if you can.
      Good Luck!

  14. Well thanks again to Pogo, finished my pogo slots badge. Shows up on the main page as being finished , does not show in my weekly badges as being finished and not showing under my badges earned. Doesn’t help to notify pogo or EA as I have tried in the past when we did the Magic badges , purchased them all and finished before the end date time frame and never got the final badge for it. ugh =/

  15. Encouraged by a few posts here so gave it try and ended up about 1,000 coins ahead.

    What a streaky game! Got really lucky with bonuses, especially Picker (used one free power up that I think doubled the payout on the vases).

    Got one announcement for a “stupendous” payout, which was 500. Lol, a big wow but not complaining.

    One annoying thing is that still need a 3-in-a-row wilds to finish the second quest. Think with 100’s of spins I could get in one time.

    GL!

    • I did over 500 spins and finally got 3 in a row, though it was in columns 2, 3, 4. Thought finally!! Nope, didn’t accept it. 🙁

  16. I have a question. I haven’t played Anagrams much, how do you get to choose a level you want to play? I did the daily 100 3 letter words but had to keep playing each level in turn. I played in Challenge Mode with BH answers until I got to the 100 and then quit. It wasn’t too bad but I’m not crazy about doing it twice more if there is a way to choose levels. A saw a few levels with 10-12 3 letter words, that would go fast.

    • Play game mode, the bottom choice. You can see when you’ve found all the 3-letter words or as many as you can find and then hit “new level”.

      Fast way to play. GL!

  17. I had no intentions of doing the slots badge this week, until I saw all the good reports coming in. So I decided to do it on my 2nd account first, to test the waters…lol

    I started with 12,938 coins. So far I’ve spun 300 times, have 7832/12000, and still have 12,200 coins left.

    Unless something changes drastically in the next couple of hundred spins I’ll be doing it on my account also.

    Thanks for everyone who reported in with their numbers. I’m happy that I didn’t wait.

    Good Luck all!

    Suz

    • I finished the badge on my 2nd account. It took exactly 460 spins, and I lost a total of 87 coins. I completed the 2nd Quest Card on the last set of 20 spins, so got a badge for that too.

      I’ll be working on mine tomorrow.

      Suz

      • I just finished the weekly badge on my account.

        It took 400 spins and I ended up winning 2,259 coins, finished Quest Card #2, and almost finished with Quest Card #3.

        While the slots are paying better than ever, for me, I’m going to work on my M&M Badges as soon as I complete my other weekly badges.

        Suz

        • How long did you have to play to win and did you have to use gems. i only get thirty at a time its gonna take awhile for this

          • It took me 398 spins, but played to 400 so everything would count. I used the auto spin, and it takes about 5 minutes for 20 spins, give or take. So it took about 2 hours in total.

            And no, I didn’t buy any coins. I’ve been collecting free coins every 6 hours since the game the released. I had 13,165 coins when I started, just from collecting 4 times a day.

            I only bet 30 coins at a time, and that will not change even when I can bet 60 coins.

            Good Luck!

            Suz

  18. I finished Pogo Slots. Started with a little over 18,000 coins and ended up with 14,600 so a lost of about 3,500 so not too bad. I do like the game but I am thinking the slots were paying off worst then when I played in a real casino but I guess for now it is the only way I will get to play slot machines for awhile………lol

    Does anybody know if you get any Pogis for playing personal challenges or is that just a way of time.

    • I tried some personal challenges and the answer is yes and no. I got Pogis for Snowbird and word search from 1/29/20 but not for winter wonderland 2/12/20 or for jigsaw 1/1/20. I plan on keep doing the ones that are after the first of the year but before Pogis started. Can’t hurt to try!

      • FADEDWILDROSE , you did the winter wonderland weekly badge on february 12, 2020 and pogo supposedly does not pay pogis for repeating any badge.

        Julia

        • But my point was that two of the badges that I had previously done DID award Pogis and two of them did not. All four had been done before.

          • I decided to try the one you got Pogis for Word Daily for my personal & I did not get any so I guess it is just a quirk.

    • I got Pogis for earning the Poppit – Heavy Lifting Weekly from February for the first time.
      But the fall 2019 Way With Words weekly do not pay Pogis so I quit playing.
      You could activate an unearned weekly. Make a little progress and then check the B for
      the newer games to see if it gives Pogis.

  19. My Pogo Slots report:
    I got the weekly.
    I’m down about 4,000 coins from where I started.
    Started at a bit above 17,000 and ended at a bit over 13,000.
    Good Luck to all.
    (I really didn’t think I’d get it this fast)

    • I used all of mine, so I waited until today and then got a few ore, but I am only at 9,000. I am wondering if I will be able to finish this week……😊

  20. Tonight I decided to go back and play Pogo Slots some more and boy were they paying off. Not only did I get my 3,500 back I also got another 1,000 which also brought me to the Quest Card 8. I don’t know. Maybe I would be better off playing this game at 1 a.m just like I did at a real casino…….lol

  21. Can someone please tell me how I find the personal badges I have activated for the week without having to go back to the old pogo to find them?
    I went to challenge central and they are not showing up even if I go to activated challenges in the drop bar menu

    • Hit Challenge Tab at the top

      Challenge Central
      Scroll down to Browse All Challenges
      Challenge Type Check the the type of badge
      Challenge Status Check Active
      Ownership Check Owned

      This should do it for you. GL!

  22. I did not know you had to go every 6 hours to get coins for Pogo slots. So I played and went through all my coins had to wait, got a big 200. Waited 6 hours to get more, then this morning I had some to play and boy they went fast now I have to wait another 6 hours. This is crazy, at this rate I will never get it and I refuse to buy them. Pogo should really give them to you every 6 hours and let them be there for you to collect rather then going in each time.

  23. for the anagrams badge i used the game mode and worked pretty well… i only did the three letter words
    and scramble solver to help me through the badge. and also pogo slots is done also gl

  24. Finished.

    Pogo Slots – Was going to hold off doing this until much more coins were collected until I read all of the posts and decided to give it a try. Have gained 3,000 coins and got it done. During game play ( 1 1/2 hours ) managed to go up 3 ranks, and completed the second quest card.

    Anagrams – Used Level 19 in Challenge Mode and took no time at all.

    Thank you all for posting for would have not done it without them!

    Gl All!

  25. Well, I did fairly well in slots last night but not , great between morning and evening sessions at 60 spins each I have about 2600 coins earned. This morning, though, my first 20 spins gave me 41 coins and my second 20 spins gave me a whopping total of 20 coins! 😳

    • If you only bet 30 a spin you would have twice the opportunity to get winning spins. That is why I never bet more than the minimum. I’d rather have 2 shots at getting free spins or the picker bonus.

      Good Luck!

      Suz

      • Thanks. I only bet 30 per spin and will probably always do that with the luck I’ve been having, lol. So far I’ve done 260 spins and have collected 2853 coins, that’s not a good percentage. If it continues this badly it would take over 1000 spins and I may not finish this weekly. I’ll try again later tonight, last night was a little better. 😊

  26. Just finished the slots challenge. Here are my stats:
    took 440 spins
    lost 1727 coins (started w/17,025, ended w/15,298)
    played 1 hr 45 min
    during play I got 7 free spins and 3 pickers
    used powerups on all (free or bought)
    started & finished quest 3 and halfway thru quest 4

  27. I just activated Pogo Slots and would like to know, how much you all betting . With BET MAX the coins disappear pretty quick.

    • I always bet the minimum, 30 coins. Even when I finish the Quest Card that allows me to increase my bet to 60, I won’t do it.

      But 30 is the minimum, 1 coin for each of the 30 lines.

      Good Luck!

      Suz

    • 9,000 could be more than enough. Looks like 5,000 for most of the people reporting. Go for it.

  28. I tried doing the bet max, or 60 per spin, 1200 for the 20 spins. I noticed the POGO name payout did not increase, so what is the benefit?

  29. Do you have to collect the tokens before you get more? I thought if I just left them I would get more….was I wrong?
    thanks for any help you can give me.
    Lizz

  30. on Pogo slots I get this message everytime after I have completed 20 spins and the bar is full above the spin button
    your progress updates at the end of each round

    isn’t that the end of the round or am I missing something. Do you have to have a challenge started for it to show progress.

    I hate this game, but then again I am getting to where I hate Pogo. I am still working on getting this on my account, I completed Mom’s but am still plodding along on mine

    • Yes, that is the round, and you should get the recap even if you don’t have a badge activated. Technically we always will have a challenge active…a Quest Card or a Coin Card. So you should always get that pop up after 20 spins.

      Good Luck!

      Suz

      • Thanks Moms, this one has about done me in. I really don’t even enjoy pogo like I used to. Sometimes I have to make myself play especially when my Mom starts something that she won’t play. But I just can’t let go and not do the weeklies I have been doing it so long I feel lost if I don’t get them done. Strange isn’t it LOL That said I am going to start going daily and getting coins

        • Yes, always collect your free coins. We all know that they are going to use this game a lot, wouldn’t be surprised to see it in the next marathon.

          Suz

  31. Hi , I’ve played (Peggle Slots) this game and all I am getting is one is one or two and sometimes nothing . Is there a way to get more points? Cause if not I’ll never get these badges done with no points being awarded like this. I just think I’m doing something wrong .

    Thanks Sandy

    • Found if I cleared my cookies, etc., exited the browser n re-entered seemed to help. Also you may try using a different browser. People were also reporting that they changed times when they played and that also helped. Just a few things to try and see what works for you.

      GL!

    • It’s a slot game, there’s nothing you can do. It’s just based on the luck of the spin. I had some really bad sets of 20 spins, and I had some that were great. I went over 100 spins without a bonus game, then I had a run where I was getting 1 or 2 bonus games every 20 spins. But there’s nothing that you can do to trigger those bonus games, it’s just luck.

      Good Luck!

      Suz

      • Do coins replenish over night? I had one experience that one morning, my coins were full. During the day, they sure don’t replenish to a high amount (as much as I would like). Seems we won’t accumulate many playing or over night.

  32. I have been playing now for 5 days and only 32% complete on badge. Guess I won’t be getting this one, have to wait too long for coins to be replaced and as I learned you need 600 to even make it worthwhile. EA in my opinion this one stinks. Before I realized you had to have 20 spins to count I was playing and obviously nothing was counted. I played for a whole 2-6 minutes before coins ran out, what a shame you spin and get 1 or 2 coins and they don’t even count.

    • You would probably be better just collecting coins as often as you can, and then do the badge in 5 weeks when it will be available to do as a personal. By then you will have enough coins to sail right thru it.

      Good Luck!!

      Suz

  34. I have been playing Pogo Slots every day, and I fear I will not be able to get the required number of coins to win the challenge because I will run out of coins. I rarely get a bonus, and most of the “wins” are under 10. Any tips?

    • It’s all pure luck, nothing anyone can do to change what they get.

      If you can’t finish you can always collect your coins daily, and do it in 5 weeks when it can be activated as a personal.

      Good Luck!

      Suz
