Jazz music has been stealing hearts around the world since the end of the 19th century. Jazz clubs are famous for excellent rhythm and great atmosphere, amazing and skillful musicians, and unforgettable evenings. This is where software provider Playtech got the inspiration for The Jazz Club video slot.
The game is even more interesting thanks to expanding Wilds and Scatter symbols that offer more winning chances.
Theme and Symbols
The Jazz Club is a music-themed video slot placed, obviously, in a jazz club with a recognizable illuminated sign. The game is simple but still good looking, with some theme-related symbols like treble clef, scotch, microphone, and club's sign. There are also the common playing card symbols. The three musicians are the highest paying symbols, and also serve to trigger bonus features.
Betting Options and Special Features
The game comes with 5 reels and 3 rows. You can choose the number of pay lines – from 1 to 25. The bet per line can be set from 0.20 to 5.00. Winning combinations pay left to right, except Scatter wins, which pay anywhere on the reels. The RTP value is below average at 94.91%.
According to the paytable, the lowest paying symbols are, as usual, the playing cards. Icons with higher prizes are Treble Clef and Glass of scotch, and they pay 2, 20, 70, and 500. Double bass soloist and Piano soloist award even more – 3, 20, 150, and 1000.
The highest paying symbol in the game is Trumpet soloist with 6, 50, 500, and 5000 for five of a kind.
The Microphone is the Wild symbol and appears on reels 2, 3, and 4. The Wild can stand in for any other symbol, except the Scatter, to help complete winning combos.
During the Bonus Games, Microphone acts as Expanding Wild.
The Jazz Club's illuminated sign is the Scatter, and pays anywhere on the reels – 2, 5, 20, and 100. If there are two or more Scatters in any position in a single spin, the payout is multiplied by the total bet and added to line wins.
When three or more Scatters appear, the Jazz Solo Bonus round is triggered, and the player has the chance to win up to 14 Bonus Games with up to x4 Multiplier. The player starts the feature, and a screen with Double Bass, Trumpet, and Piano soloist symbols are shown. By picking one of them, the player chooses a fixed number and multiplier of the Bonus Games:
Double Bass soloist – 14 Bonus Games with x2 multiplier
Trumpet soloist – 10 Bonus Games with x1 multiplier
Piano soloist – 7 Bonus Games with x4 multiplier.
The chosen symbol replaces the other two during the Bonus Games. The feature can not be retriggered.
Conclusion
The Jazz Club is an excellent video slot from Playtech for all those who enjoy vivacious music and simple features. The Expanding wilds, scatters, free rounds with multipliers, as well as the maximum potential prize are more than enough to make you love this game.
While the RTP is quite disappointing, the volatility is high and can potentially provide a memorable experience for thrill seekers.
