Transformers Slot Machine
All things from the 80s are new again, and if you were young during that era, no doubt you witnessed one of the ultimate battles between good and evil. Fought between the Autobots and the Decepticons on the hit cartoon series “Transformers”, this saga later translated into full-length feature films and now appears on the reels for adventurous slot-machine fun. With five reels, twenty paylines, expanding wilds and an Ultimate Playback feature, Transformers is a true taste of classic entertainment.
The Battle Scene is Set
You’ll feel like you’re stepping into the hit series from the 1980s, as the theme music cues and the announcer says, “Autobots: transform and roll out!” All the graphics are true to the original cartoon design. Lower valued symbols are colorful metallic block figures beginning with 10 and ending with A, then begins the robot lineup starting with Soundwave, Starscream, and Jazz. One of the most popular Transformers of all time, Bumblebee, is featured as the highest-valued symbol.
The Transformers’ planet, Cybertron, is featured on a special wild which substitutes for all standard symbols. When it’s part of a winning combination, it becomes a variable wild that opens an option for you to pick a planet and win its attached multiplier, which ranges from 2x to 10x. There are also expanding wilds designed with Autobot and Decepticon robots which grow to fill up the entire reel when they appear on reels 2 or 4.
Mega-Transform into Free Spins
Enter into the game’s most exciting bonus when you hit both the Megatron and Optimus Prime bonus symbols on both the 1st and 5th reels. You’ll find yourself in the Ultimate Playback Bonus, where you choose whether to play as Optimus Prime or Megatron. Free spins will begin, and whenever the Fight symbol appears on reel 5, the two battle it out at the bottom of the reels. Both of them have an equal chance of winning, and the loser’s energy bar will drop by one unit at the end of the fight. After one robot loses all three of his energy bars, he’s considered defeated and the round ends. If neither robot is defeated, the game will return to regular mode after 100 free spins—whichever comes first. While in free spins, you’ll notice that the Soundwave, Starscream, Jazz and Bumblebee symbols have transformed into their vehicle versions.
You Determine Your Own Fate
How much you wager determines your winnings in the Cybertron Variable Wild Pick a Planet Game, and since its appearance is totally random, it pays to wager the maximum you can on each spin. You can choose what best fits your budget, wagering in increments of 1 to 5 coins on one to 25 lines. There’s also a simple Max Bet button that’s handy if you want to bet the highest amount possible on every spin.
Winning is Everything
There’s never been peace on Cybertron and there probably never will be, but as long as the Transformers are battling it out on the reels, you’re in for a good time. If you prefer a more movie-like representation of the Transformers, checkout IGT’s Transformers: Battle for Cybertron slot.
