Tour de Paris Slot Machine
As a person who sees an awful lot of slot machines, I still somehow manage to get excited when I see something new coming my way. I think this is because I personally love the glitz and glamor that comes with a new slot release, and even when games don't have big name movie franchise or celebrity attached to them it is still very easy for me to find the greatness encompassed in every cabinet I see. Tour de Paris by WMS Gaming isn't as highly touted a slot as what you will see compared to some of the games that are coming out later this year, but it is still a game that appears like it will be worthy of your time.
Debuted at the G2E Expo in Las Vegas during late September and Early October 2014, Tour de Paris is one of a huge slate of land based slot machines that are due for release during the fourth quarter of this year and early 2015, joining big name games such as Willy Wonka and the Flintstones, along with titles such as the groovy Austin Powers, and Centaur machines.
Tour de Paris is a 5 reel, 4 row slot with a unique giant bonus reel that spins alongside the traditional lines. The slot appears to have 60 paylines, and also has symbols that bring a French essence to the game. These symbols include the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, violins, bottles of perfume, elegant French cuisine, as well as hearts, diamonds, and Wild Symbols that read "Tour de Paris".
The game is devilishly simple looking, brining an bright and enchanting experience to players who sometimes can be stuck playing games that are just a bit too drab for an upbeat area like a casino. This title just pops, and the loud chimes and sparkling fireworks on display as you strike a win really build excitement.
Feature wise the game includes the huge reel on the left, which interacts with the other symbols to create some staggering wins. Other features include Wild Symbols and Free Spins, which can re-trigger if you get the right symbols. The Free Spins mode is set off when you unveil three of the girl holding flowers symbols, and the re-trigger is set off when you hit those during your Free Spins.
As part of the WMS Money Burst series of games, Tour de Paris is a volatile slot that is certainly unique in the way it looks and plays. Although we have not yet seen a progressive jackpot for this game, we wouldn't rule it out in the future should the game take off in its popularity.
Tour de Paris is a fourth quarter 2014 release for WMS, meaning that it has begun its rollout across North America, and will quickly be making its way out to a spot near you. If you are looking to take a trip to Paris but don't have the time, WMS Gaming's Tour de Paris may be exactly what you're looking for!
