How To Play American Dad Mobile Slot
The cartoon series is back at it again, but this time Playtech introduces you to the American Dad slot game.
We were very excited when we saw that we were getting a new American Dad mobile slot.
After all, we absolutely loved the Family Guy IGT game, so surely it’s sister series should be just as good?
The problem, of course, is that this isn’t by IGT. It’s by Playtech. So are we going to get the same kind of results?
Nice theme, but it’s the bonus games that win
Let’s be honest. American Dad is a crude, rude, kind of TV show about an CIA American family that live with an alien and a… nazi?… fish.
Now, don’t get us wrong, this has the same great animations and sounds you’d expect from Playtech online phone slots.
But… it’s never funny. Or particularly rude. Or even that crude.
Yeah, you’ve got Roger vomitting all over the screen, but I guess if you are going to do a game about an adult cartoon show, you might as well embrace the depravity.
Like NetEnt did with the South Park mobile game.
However, the American Dad slot features are fun
The thing is, this could easily be an upside – you don’t need to have watched the TV series to appreciate some great bonus filled reels.
And that’s exactly what you find here, as at any point you can trigger any of 5 different slot bonus features, each with their own ability to make you howl in joy.
You’ll have to read our features section below to see our favourite, but honestly, what makes this American Dad slot game so much fun is that you never know quite what you are going to get.
It’s unpredictable, but rarely boring.

American Dad Bonus Features
Wild: Stan the alien is the wild symbol and replaces all other symbols on screen - and seeing as he is a master of disguise, he turns into a different person on each win.
The Schmooblydong Wheel: Whilst Roger would say it's a wheel that is like "being high at a Rusted Root concert while two dudes take you on in a sun-baked porta-john".
But really it's just three wheels of fortune, one on reel 1, one on reel 3, and one on reel 5.
- Reel 1 determines which of the 5 character features you trigger
- Reel 3 powers up each feature in a different way
- Reel 5 tells you how many free spins you'll get
The Schmooblydong Special Features: So if you get the wheel on reel 1 and reel 3, you'll get one re-spin.
If you also get that wheel on reel 5, you'll get multiple free spins, from 3 to 25.
- Stacking Stan: The highest paid symbol of the lot, the wheel on reel 3 will determine how many stacks you'll get - though honestly, anything less than 5 or 10 doesn't do much.
- Roger's Random Wilds: Roger vomits random wilds on screen, and the wheel on reel 3 will determine how many random wilds you get per spin. This one is good, as you only need 3 to 5 to get good results.
- Francine's Holy Grail: Reel 3 determines how many Klaus (the fish) randomly land on the reels. If Francine then lands on Klaus, she will expand to cover the whole reel and turn wild. A great feature if it works, but honestly, it's the most unpredictable.
- Hayley's Progressive Multiplier: Hayley collects signature on every spin, and every time she's successful, she increases the win multiplier. This one is by far the most rewarding, but the hardest to catch. Especially if you get that elusive 10x multiplier to start with on reel 3 wheel.
- Wheels and the Legman: Here Steve and Roger show up on screen and give you random wilds. How many do you get per spin? As many as the wheel 3 says - though really you want about 5 to really make a difference.
Which is our favourite? To be honest, all are good, as long as the reel 3 wheel of fortune brings you enough of an upgrade on your bonus.
