This new slot game is 100 lines of win. The game is available at Virgin Games and other UK casinos but not to players from the United States. Though I’m firmly of the opinion that companies designs slots for the American market need to go take a look at this game because the graphics are fantastic. More like a movie than a slots game. And I’m a jaded slots reviewer so I’m not easy to impress.
This is a five reel, 100 line slot game so watch your money when you play. You’ll want to play all the lines so even at a penny or pence a line, the change adds up quickly. Also because of the extreme graphics on this one, Virgin Games offers either a low resolution or high resolution flash version. I recommend playing somewhere where you can play the high resolution game because the visuals are absolutely stunning.
The game does have the J, K, Q, A symbols and simple red icons on a black background but there is so much going on visually that the eye almost needs the break. Any winning icons are animated and run little movie clips but also keep an eye on the sidebars where the images change as the game progresses. Also, the game is liberally studded with Wild symbols (helpfully labeled Wild). If you hit two on the same reel, the symbols expand to make the entire reel wild.
But what you want is to hit three Bonus symbols on the reels. These are fighting machine symbols helpfully labeled Bonus. Hit three and you’ll launch the Fighting Machine Bonus game. In this game, you try to shot the infernal alien machines with your cannons. There is an option to either play the game yourself, which is quite satisfying as you blast away at the aliens, or to let the computer play for you. Either way, you can win back a fair amount of your losings in the game.
Yes, I did say losings. It took me an hour of play to trigger the bonus game and during that time, I was down about $150. So, you’ll need to start with a decent bankroll to play this one. However, one bonus game round left me $28 above my starting point. I just need more bonus games and I’ll be a millionaire.
