Independence Day

June 30th, 2008 · No Comments

This is clearly a seasonal slot machine which will bring out that patriotism as you spin your way to Independence! This 5 reel slot machine has a wonderfully red white and blue graphics scheme together with some quirky features which will give it a edgy appeal.

There’s quite a healthy top jackpot on this machine of 10,000 coins and you’ll get that with 5 wild Portrait symbols. The free spin bonus feature is triggered with 3 or more BETSY ROSS symbols and you’ll get 10 free spins where all the wins are doubled. This feature can be retriggered, however the subsequant free spin wins are not doubled.

The other bonus game is activated when you get 3 or more DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE symbols on an active payline. Here you will choose over 3 rounds firstly who is your presidential candidate, a location and then a landmark. Each will reveal a prize.

Overall a fun game with a quirky twist on the seasonal theme. I’d personally say that the graphics are fun, but not overly detailed or well drawn.
