Bali Vacation opens on an airport baggage belt: suitcases roll past a screen that shows the multiplier, and the reels above fill with coconuts, sun hats, temples and a Balinese dancer. PG Soft released it in February 2021 on Infinity Reels, a format where reels keep being added on the right as long as the last one improves a win. Its own twist is the No Poker feature, which removes every card symbol from the reels. I lost 228.00 over 100 demo spins at 6.00, and the best spin of the session was one where that feature kicked in, for 117.00.

Three reels to start, more as you win
Each spin begins with three reels of four rows. A win needs five or more matching symbols connected from the first reel, and every symbol in the group pays its own value. When the rightmost reel adds to a group, a new reel slides in from the right, and the same happens when the last reel adds nothing but carries a Free Spins ticket. Each added reel raises the multiplier on the screen by one, and the whole spin is paid once at the end.
The wild, a red-and-gold Balinese mask, appears on every reel except the first and substitutes for everything but the Free Spins symbol. All my spins were played at the 6.00 the demo starts with (size 0.30, level 2), where one paytable point equals 0.60.
What each symbol is worth
The dancer is the top symbol and the five cards the weakest. Since every symbol in a group is paid separately, ten dancers would already return five stakes on a 10-point spin, multiplier aside:
| Symbol | Points per symbol |
|---|---|
| Balinese dancer | 5 |
| Woman on the beach | 4 |
| Temple gate, sun hat, coconut | 3 |
| A, K | 2 |
| Q, J, 10 | 1 |
No Poker: the cards leave the reels
At the start of any base-game spin the No Poker feature can be triggered at random. Before the reels stop, every A, K, Q, J and 10 is removed, so the board holds only the picture symbols, which are worth 3 to 5 points against the cards' 1 or 2.
My sixth spin got it. With the cards gone, sun hats connected across the first reels, mask wilds filled several positions on the new reels, and the chain kept adding reels until the screen showed x5. Thirteen hats at 3 points each made 39 points, 23.40, and x5 turned that into 117.00, nearly twenty stakes.
Other spins that reached the later reels
Spin 93 ran to x4 with nine coconuts, 27 points or 16.20, for 64.80. Spin 26 combined five dancers and seven Js, 32 points, at x2 for 38.40, and spin 43 grouped six hats at x3 for 32.40.
Every result above five stakes in my session came from a chain of at least four reels. Spins that stopped at three reels rarely paid more than a coin or two, and the session returned 372.00 of the 600.00 staked.
Free spins without card symbols
It takes three Free Spins tickets to start the round of 8 free spins; each ticket after the third adds two. Before the round begins, all poker symbols are removed for its entire length, and the multiplier, which in the base game resets every spin, starts at x1 and keeps growing with every added reel until the feature ends. I did not trigger it in 100 spins, so this part follows the rules.
The same Infinity Reels engine runs Secrets of Cleopatra, released four months earlier, where the free spins add a gamble for a faster-growing multiplier instead of removing the cards.

A holiday that needs a long chain
Bali Vacation pays per symbol, so wins grow with the length of the chain, and the multiplier grows with it. Most of my spins stopped at three reels with nothing to collect; the few that grew to four reels or more produced every result worth mentioning. The No Poker feature is the game's own contribution, and it gave me the best spin of the session even in the base game.
