Chimney Stacks

Chimney Stacks, a 5 reel/40 line Slot from Bally Gaming, offers Free Spins, scatters and wild symbols, plus a top jackpot worth up to $5,000.

The game’s theme has to do with chimneys and quite a few of the symbols found here will give you the same impression. The overall design is not bad, with the reels taking a very large part of the screen. A city view at nigh is barely visible behind the game reels, while on them the view is that of a city and a chimney cleaner with a sweeper of some kind in his hand. The sides of the reels look like walls made out of bricks, like a chimney’s structure would be. The playing card icons have no special design to them, so there are the six classic poker icons between Nine and Ace with various colors selected in each case. The rest of the icons are images of various items that a chimney sweeper might use or things that have another connection with the theme. The top hat, bellows, a weathervane are three symbols that appear in the game, along with the wild symbol and the scatter.

There are two components to the bets created here, the standard part and the bonus wager. Besides the 40 coins used to cover the 40 lines the player is forced to use an extra 10 coins to cover the Bonus wager, with no details on why that is required, if you get any additional advantages from it and without the option to skip it. Bets per line start at $0.01 and go up to $10, with wagers going up to $500 as a result. The top jackpot is valued at $5,000.

The wild symbol can appear and form its own combinations and when it does this it awards payouts of $300 to $5,000, for 3 to 5 symbols on the payline. The wild also substitutes for other symbols the rest of the time and you should be getting more regular paying combinations in the long run thanks to it.

The symbol marked Free Games is a scatter and it will appear on the reels 1, 3 and 5. When you have it on all three reels you get 10 free spins plus a prize worth 4x the wager. These free spins come with stacked wild symbols that are limited to appearances on reels 2 to 5.

Chimney Stacks is a different game with a unique theme as there are not many that focus on sweeping chimneys.
