The Big Deal Slots
As anyone who has ever played a video slot will know, there’s pretty much no limit to the number of themes and concepts that can be explored through this highly versatile form of competitive wagering. There are slots based on movies, there are slots based on novels, there are slots based on the exploits of musicians, there are slots based on television shows.
This slot, entitled The Big Deal and birthed into the world by the brilliant team at Habanero Gaming Systems, takes its lead from the format of a television show. Well, that may not be strictly accurate. The Big Deal takes a lead from a range of television shows all crammed into one concise and extremely fun to play slots game.
The game is already receiving a brilliant reception across the board and this mania only looks set to continue as word keeps spreading about how well built and engaging the game really is. There are fewer games out there based on television shows than you’d probably expect, a fact which adds even more to this game as a standalone phenomenon.
How’s It Looking?
For all of the joy that television brings to people, there’s no question at all that there is an element of vanity about it all. Looks play a big part in television, or for that matter any contemporary form of visual media, and in particular the looks of the individuals featured within its various shows and programs.
With this in mind, there’s very little wonder as to why the team at Habanero Gaming Systems have opted to make their big deal slot look as positively brilliant as they have managed to. Already being lauded as the best television themed video slot of all time – albeit by the growing diehard faithfuls of Habanero itself – from the way this game looks alone you’d probably be forgiven for getting caught up in the hysteria!
The theme is stylish, sophisticated and actually rather more minimalist than you may expect from a slot tackling a theme such as this one. From the word go, it’s blindingly obvious just how well organised the game is, with a very easily understood format, spellbinding graphics and some unique animations making it pop in all the ways you could ever wish for it to pop. What’s more, the games soundtrack is something to behold – extremely close to that of the original 1980s BBC show upon which the vast majority of the game’s style is modelled upon.
The shows host, Roger, looks particularly brilliant as he guides you through the un-complex processes involved with making the game sing and steers you towards any number of payouts and bonuses that can be unlocked with relative ease. Positioned next to the reels, he pays you a compliment each time you make a positive move towards a winning combo - a very nice touch indeed!
Prize Performers
As is the case with every game, the symbols stand at the centre of the The Big Deal universe. Along with the standard cards (J, K. Q and A in this case) there is host of more unique ones; such as a diamond ring, a new car, a tropical holiday, a camera and a toasted – essentially all the kinds of things you’d usually see as prizes on a game show such as the one being emulated here!
The The Big Deal Logo itself is the games wild, while the scatter arrives in the form of a purple haired young lady. Roger the games host is also a scatter who can be used in order to trigger a cool bonus feature wherein players have access to a host of free spins.
The wild can of course replace all others aside from the scatter upon the reels in order to make a winning combo. Furthermore, when five wilds appear across the reels during the standard gameplay, the player will immediately win the entire sum of the progressive jackpot which ticks above the reels.
Added Extras
One more feature that’s worth writing home about is the The Big Deal Bonus round. This is unlocked by landing at least three scatters across reels one, three and five and offers players a host of free spins – whose wins will be accompanied with various multipliers in order to hike up the value of the prize on offer!
