Now without me having to "test" it extensively.

Are there parameters that I can look up?

Well, actually you can only find out if you play the game for a while. But there are a few indicators where you can estimate it somewhat.

1. Does the game have a high Win factor (possible maximum win >= 1,000x stake)? You can find this out at under Casino Games at GambleJoe and sort by it. Note: The win factor is often only an estimate and can also contain errors, so it is best to check again yourself.

2. Which game manufacturer is the game about? Novoline games, the games from Merkur or from Bally Wulff almost exclusively have a high variance. With NetEnt slots everything occurs and the casino games from Quickspin work predominantly with low variance.

Novo Bally etc I thought so.
It's just no fun to spin forever without at least times to have good small profits.

The low Variance are then also good for Bonuses freizuspielen

Hard to say if this is true. Could be a serious discussion about it. If you are lucky with a high variance game and get one or more big hits, a high variance slot is just as good, if not better, to unlock bonuses. However, if you have a bad streak, then you have a better chance with low variance slots

With a low variance slot you always play relatively close to the payout ratio and it is difficult to get above it. And the turnover conditions are designed so that the casino with an AQ of 98% does not make any losses with the bonus. So if you are always close to this rate, then you have rather wengier chances. I think the best is the golden mean What do you say?

Charms & Witches is a good example. I once used it at Rizk for 2.5 hours after a big hit in another game to clear a 35 x bonus without losing a lot of money

if you are one of the all the time nothing neat hits then you are happy about every now and then kl. and medium profits, so low variance.

So a list of low / high would be really good. At manufacturers can not make it, except all those who come from Spielos, they just want to make money, so the High are set.

Well, the manufacturers give that just hardly or not. And low and high Variance is also a relatively subjective value. When is a game low and when is it high? As I said, you can estimate it somewhat by sorting by "max. win factor" on GambleJoe under Casino Games. This tells you what you can theoretically win per spin. However, all information on the Win factor is without guarantee - so please check again yourself

I would say:

Maximum win < 500x stake = Low variance
Maximum win 500x - 1.000x = Medium variance
Maximum win 1,000x and more high variance.

However, the game Dead or Alive rather falls into the category of "high variance" although 750x is specified as the win factor. It depends on several factors. But it helps to roughly classify the games.

And the casinos basically don't care if a game has a high or low variance. If two games have a payout ratio of 95% (one low variance and one high variance), then the casino earns 5% of the bet per spin on a long-term average.

Actually, low variance slots bring more money to the casinos, because in these games you play for a long time but never land a really big hit. That is, many players gamble away the winnings again.

Gaming is a different story, because the payout rate is 75%. This means that in the long run, casinos earn an average of 25% of the stake per spin.
