The Osbournes Slot
Come and ride the Crazy Train as you join rock legend Ozzy and his famous family for fun, frolics and (hopefully) a fortune in The Osbournes online slot machine.
The English rock singer became famous as the charismatic frontman of heavy metal pioneers Black Sabbath, belting out classic hits such as Paranoid and War Pigs. And the rest of his colourful clan rose to public attention in their ground-breaking fly-on-the-wall MTV documentary more than a decade ago.
Now their antics are captured perfectly in this five-reel, 20-payline offering from Microgaming. There’s a rocking soundtrack to get you pumped up, and plenty of other great visual and audio effects to enhance the whole experience.
Sharon’s late pet pooch Minnie, a cute white Pomeranian, is also along for the ride. Famous for leaving her own special deposits around the house in the TV show, she is one of the keys to bigger deposits for players with enticing free spins… but more on that later.
Family Values
As you’d expect, the family members all make an appearance as symbols on the reels. There’s wild-eyed Ozzy, his force-of-nature wife Sharon, plus kids Jack and Kelly – all recreated in fun and eye-catching cartoon form.
Landing at least two of the same is the name of the game. Ozzy pays out 4, 50, 400 and 5,000 coins for 2, 3, 4 and 5 symbols respectively, while Sharon is slightly less generous with 3, 40, 300 and 3,000.
Their two children were always up to something in the hit show, and here Kelly and Jack are heavily involved in the action too. Kelly, now a star of US TV, will give you 2, 20, 200 and 1,500 coins as reward, while her brother, famed for his daredevils stunts, is surprisingly a bit more conservative by offering 2, 15, 100 and 1,000 for matching up his symbols.
Other symbols on the spin are a guitar, a microphone, a framed family portrait, an Emmy award trophy and an armchair. You’ll need three or more to land smaller prizes up to maximum haul of 300 coins.
Furry Friends
One of Ozzy’s big solo hits was Bark at the Moon, but if you see cute canine Minnie you’ll be yelping with delight as she is one of the two scatter symbols on offer. Three or more launches the Minnie Free Spin Trail Bonus, which sees the much-loved pet going walkies across the top of the screen in four sections – one for each member of the family – as the 10 free spins progress. Each bonus is also doubled.
Every section achieved brings with it bonus booty, with the ultimate aim to reach Ozzy for a bumper bonanza. You must land Minnie symbols in lines 2, 3 or 4 to advance her along the line. This also resets the free spins back to 10.
The other scatter symbol is the Door Knocker. Land them in lines 1, 2 and 3 and you’ll be presented with an option of choosing a door behind which are multipliers of up to five times your stake.
Gift of the Grab
A further bonus feature is the randomly-generated Grab a Gift; offering up to 6,000 coins as you decide when to stop the rotation and chose the wrapped present you like the look of. There’s four to choose from, with some flames, skulls, flowers and crowns offering a wide range of tempting parcels.
As you’d expect, Jack’s is the least risky to opt for, while Ozzy’s is much tougher but brings with it bigger rewards. The Osbournes logo is the wild symbol, meaning it will substitute for all other symbols apart from the scatters and lead to more lucrative game play.
The betting values range from $0.01 right up to $5 per payline, with a maximum wager of $100. When it comes to grabbing the jackpot, it’s a 15,000 multiplier top prize, with a maximum haul of $75,000 – enough, we’re sure, to get anyone headbanging with delight if they scoop it.
A Rockin’ Good Ride!
This fun slot machine game is one screeching guitar solo of a good time, and you’ll remember just how entertaining the Osbourne family are as they help you along your way to plenty of thrilling prizes.
The look of the game really fits the mood, and the animated characters come to life when you hit the payline combinations – Ozzy pulling his trademark heavy metal face and Jack proudly showing off his new tattoo.
It’s easy to get carried away with the Osbournes…. but maybe don’t bite the head off a bat while you’re playing! Try it for real by visiting our comprehensive list of casino reviews and picking "Microgaming" from the software dropdown.
