Slot Contraption Game Slots
Slot Contraption Game isn’t exactly a title that rolls off the tongue, but the slot from Parlay Games is a heck of a lot of fun. The 5-reel, non-progressive casino game is based around the contraptions we have developed throughout the years: inventions that are now ubiquitous, but at the time sent shockwaves around the globe.
Slot Contraption Game, which takes place on a typical 5x3 grid, features 25 unfixed pay-lines. You can elect to play on one, five, ten, 15, 20 or all 25, but activating all 25 gives you the best possible chance of winning the most loot. The game has a maximum bet of two credits per line, meaning you can stake up to 50 credits for every spin of the reels. As such, the game should appeal mostly to low rollers.
The Boiler Room
Slot Contraption Game has rather a distinctive look. The reels appear in front of a network of bronzed pipes, suggesting we are in some kind of boiler room. Given the theme, though, we’re guessing this is an inventor’s workshop. There are pipes and pistons both above and below the screen, and the reels are populated by numerous famous inventions.
The control panel, as usual, is set along the bottom of the screen. There are buttons for Max Bet, AutoPlay, Bet Level and Lines. There’s also a Play button, which sets the reels in motion. In the lower left corner, you’ll find a gearwheel and an information tab. Press the latter, followed by the trophy symbol, to view the pay-table or choose the question mark to view the rules. There’s also the chance to read a quick tutorial. Pressing the gearwheel, meanwhile, allows you to mute the music/audio.
A Collection of Contraptions
As stated, the game’s symbols relate to famous inventions. Thus, there are feathered tools, mechanic boots, teacups, two different types of spanners, mechanic hands, gold-rimmed goggles, laser guns, robots and flying hats. The aim, as ever, is to find multiples of these symbols to trigger pay-outs.
The wild symbol (it’s just a triangle with the word WILD in the middle) substitutes for all regular icons, but it doesn’t replace other special feature symbols. Moreover, find two, three, four or four on an active pay-line and you’ll be furnished with pay-outs of 10, 200, 1,000 or 5,000 coins respectively. Not too bad at all!
Other well-paying symbols include the feathering tool, which pays 1,000 for five, 150 for four, 30 for three and 5 for two. Next it’s the fancy cowboy style boot, paying 750, 75, 12 and 2, followed by the cup, which pays 500, 75 and 12.
There’s also a free spins symbol, combinations of which give players one or more so-called ‘magic spins’. Just spin the reels and land one free spin symbol to trigger a magic spin. All the reels will become immobile, with only the central reel spinning.
The Bonus Symbol
The bonus symbol is definitely one to watch out for. Two or more of these on an enabled pay-line means you’ll gain entry to the bonus round. Once the bonus mini-game begins, you’ll be asked to click on all six fob watches available. Each fob watch conceals a separate prize. Your round will finish when you uncover all of them, at which point the total amount of your wins will be counted.
Slot Contraption Game also features a Spin Stop function, allowing the player to stop the spin at any time he desires. As such, gameplay can be as fast as you like.
Worth a Punt?
Slot Contraption Game is a decent enough video slot from a solid software developer in Parlay Games, who along with WorldMatch have brought this title to the casino floor. The game is exceedingly easy to get to grips with, and has enough bonus icons to keep play interesting. Moreover, this is a new theme, and the graphics are of a good quality. As ever, it’s worth trying the game in our free slots online section before you stake any hard cash. Happy hunting!
