We told you back in february that we would be due this branded NetEnt slot machine in 2015.
Turns out, the famously perfectionist game studio needed a year to make a video slot worthy of the rock gods, and they’ve pushed the release to the 21st of January 2016.
But that’s not to say that they won’t wet our appetite with a video, breaking down exactly what you might find in the casino game come the New Year.
Prepare for panties all over the country to drop as you watch what looks like one hell of an exciting release.
The Guns N Roses video slot preview
You know what we love? Being right. We made a list of demands back in February 2015 as to what we would want to see in a Guns and Roses slot game, and if this video stays true, NetEnt have delivered.
If you can’t watch the video, don’t worry we’ve got your back. We’ve watched the video in minute detail, paused at all the right moments, and accumulated every last piece of information that you can get from a 2 minute video.
Yeah, we need to get out more, we know.
What we can decipher from this bonus heavy game
It’s a bonus heavy game. The clue is in the title.
Read all about the Koi Princess slot from NetEnt, out 26th of November.
There appears to be 5 bonus features that you can trigger in one of two ways. One way is through a multi-award bonus wheel that you spin and win either one of the features or instant cash.
The other is… through the power of rock n’ roll? We can’t tell.
It looks like a multiple option feature, where you pick which you want instead of triggering it by chance, which makes a nice change.
Usually, bonus heavy Net Entertainment games, like the South Park slot, tend to like having randomly triggered bonus features.
How can that improve the game play?
It might not. It just makes it different.
If at any point you can hit a random bonus feature, you are at the mercy of lady luck and a capricious machine. It can be exhilarating and frustrating.
If you get to choose which of the slots 5 bonus features you get to play, then you have a chance to make a decision of your own fate – risk it all one one big feature, or try safer more reliable wins?
It’s just as frustrating (mostly because you’ll always wonder if you could have picked better), but the anticipation of the features almost bring a whole new level of high.
*Lawyers notes: Perfectly legal, non-drug induced, high.
The bonus features in the Guns and Roses video slot
This isn’t a perfect list, but from what we can gather in the video…
- 20 Free spins no deposit
- 5 Deposit Bonuses giving you €£1,200 in extra cash.
- 180 Free Spins after 1st Deposit
- Appetitive for destruction wild: You get a cross shaped wild symbol that can land fully across reels 2, 3 and 4.
- Legend spins: Free spins bonus.
- Solo Multiplier: Up to 10x random multiplier on a win.
- Encore free spins: Free spins where you get one of the rock stars as an expanded wild, and all other symbols of it’s kind as wild.
- Crowd pleaser bonus: A pick me game where you win instant cash, multipliers and free spins.
But that’s not what makes this new slot exciting
The thing about the bonus features is that we can’t tell whether they will show up every 50 spins like in the Tower Quest slot, or you’ll need to sacrifice the virginity of 10 groupies to the rock n’ roll gods in order to trigger them.
Whichever the case, the theme and overall base game play make all the difference in how long we’ll want to play.
And this Guns N Roses slot theme is beautifully done, bringing back the heydays of the gang when they were one of the worlds best selling band of all time; and not the sugar-free version they are now.
It also seems like you get expanded wilds throughout the games, which will make those wins come hard and fast. AND you get to choose the songs you play; so you’re not stuck with Sweet Child of Mine in your head for the rest of the day, unless that’s what you want.
In order of favourites songs:
- Welcome to the Jungle
- November Rain
- Paradise City
- Sweet Child of Mine
- Chinese Democracy
You’ve got to love the fact you can play your favourite songs at your leisure.
The most dangerous video slot in the world?
Guns and Roses may have the nickname of the most dangerous band in the world, but we all know it’s all for show.
- 10 Free spins no deposit
- 100% up to £€$200 + 10 free spins
- 10 free spins on 2nd deposit
And so, though the slot appears to have a host of ways to win big, we doubt this game will go higher than about medium volatility.
It’s just doesn’t make sense for NetEnt to create a branded slot that’s so dangerous people will be scared to play; no matter how high the potential reward.
With these many bonus features, this is going to be a lively, entertaining affair, with so much energy and action, you’ll find yourself wishing you could be in the heart of a live concert.
But as for really big, life-changing wins? You’ll probably still have to play on something like the Piggy Riches mobile slot to get those kind thrills.
At all good mobile NetEnt casinos on the 21st of January
We’ll bet our Guns and Roses signed guitar… no wait. We don’t have that yet.
We’ll bet our G’n’R tea cup that you’ll get the Guns and Roses mobile slot at the same time as the online slot. So far, every new release has been for all devices, and there’s no reason to suspect they won’t with this one.
And forget what we said about the signed guitar. It’s not like we know something about a promotion that NetEnt will run when this game is out, where you can win a signed Axl Rose and Slash Guitar when you play.
*Wink*You didn’t hear it from us*wink*
Too excited to wait till the 21st of January? Fair enough. You get a huge 200 free spins on a selection of 4 NetEnt games when you play at Leo Vegas casino, including the likes of Mega Fortune Dreams, Twin Spin or Starburst.
No better time to remember what makes this software provider so great.
