Atomic Age Slot machine review

Atomic Age

Atomic Age offers you a look into the past, plus 5 reels and 15 paylines, and it’s a game designed by Rival. The game’s top prize, a $37,500 jackpot, is accompanied by scatter and wild symbols as features.

The 50’s, a time when the threat of nuclear war was a real concern, and the world was still recovering from World War 2, was chosen as the theme for this Slot, and it has many of the things that make the era attractive to us. Instead of focusing on the negatives, it brings us the things that made that period charming, and the reasons why people enjoy TV series like Mad Men. The reels are encased in a wooden frame, similar to a TV set, with the logo at the top. The reels have symbols with images of UFO’s, cash registers, a drive in theater, cake, ice cream, soda, record players, TV sets, the Sputnik satellite, a rocket and the symbol of the atom. The design of the symbols is retro, made the way people used to draw back then, and it has a certain charming feeling to it.

If you’re feeling lucky, and you want to wager the most you can, make sure you can afford the $75 maximum bet per spin, which uses 5 coins per payline, at $0.01 to $1 each. The top jackpot makes the bet seem like a good trade off, with up to $37,500 that can be won in the game.

Atomic Age includes as a wild one of the things that we remember best from the 50’s, the UFO, which became popular courtesy of the Roswell incident. It’s a typical wild in this case, substituting for other symbols, without adding anything to that.

Two bonus rounds are available in the game, each one triggered by a different scatter symbol.

First, we have the cash register, and with at least three of these symbols, you get to play the bonus game called Cash Register. The player has to pick four items from the multiple choices available to him, and their total price needs to be as close to $1.50 as possible (the prices from the 50’s). The farther away the guess is, the smaller the prize.

Next, we have the drive in theater. Once again, you need at least three symbols to start this round. During the game, you get to choose the character you want to play with, and his date. Finally, you get to choose the movie they will both enjoy. The better the choice, the bigger the prize.

It’s an enjoyable game, with a few good features and some Bonus games that are not boring, something that can’t be said about a lot of Slots.
