At The Movies Slot machine review

At the Movies

Betsoft's At the Movies is a Slot that has 5 reels, with 25 paylines on them. The game offers a jackpot of $5,000, plus features like the wild and the scatter symbol, multipliers and Free Spins.

The slot is movie themed, as you would expect from the title, and you can see that the reels are placed on top of the movie theater's entrance. The top area has the classic look of a movie theater, with the logo and the announcements to the sides. The buttons that the player uses to select the number of paylines and the number of coins are placed on movie related items, like the soda cup, the popcorn or the clapboard, while the Max Bet Spin option is placed on the movie reel. The symbols are mostly movie related images, or images that appear to be taken from movies. You will notice the wild masks symbol, the movie projector scatter, the Oscar statue, popcorn, movie characters and posters.

Up to 5 coins per payline can be wagered, with a maximum of 125 coins possible. The coins vary in value between $0.02 and $1, so the maximum bet is $125, and the top jackpot is $5,000.

The difference between the maximum bet and the top jackpot might seem low, but the game has decently sized prizes for the most part. The top jackpot is awarded for five symbols with the Oscar statue, while four Oscars award 2500 coins, three Oscars award 1000 and two will award 100 coins.

The popcorn symbol is next, paying up to 2500 coins for five symbols, then dropping to 1250 coins for four symbols, and so on.

The symbol with the masks acts as a wild in the game, so it will substitute for the majority of the other symbols available. The exception is the projector symbol, which is a scatter, and can't be replaced with a wild. The wild has a 2x multiplier, applied to winning combinations that it contributes to.

The game has a scatter symbol, which pays 250 coins if you get two of them on the reels, while three or more will give out free spins. You get 8 spins for free for three scatters, 12 spins for four scatters and 20 spins for free if you get five scatters.

Movie fans will probably enjoy this slot, though they might be annoyed by the game's top jackpot when compared with the maximum bet possible.
