James Dean Slot

I will start this review with a story from my childhood that I almost forgotten. Long ago, when I was under 10 years old, and when once a week with the whole family I went out to eat at a good restaurant, we have chosen a fish restaurant, not very known from Bucharest. Fish is a dish that does not fill you up, and we ate two servings each of us. At the end of the meal the waiter came and made the count: the total was rose to about 5 times the normal amount paid in the best luxury restaurant. It was almost a quarter of a salary of that time. I still remember now that account made by the waiter.

The “James Dean” slot it is the strangest of all slots I have played until now. Here the count does not fit again. I feel that something is totally wrong and I spent about 10 minutes trying to get everything clarified with what happens when you play this slot. All for nothing! Here is what it happens: at this slot you sometimes have 4 reels with extended Wild. I had all reels 1, 2, 3 and 4 extended and how much do you think I won? 2 cents! Then it happens that at another spin the game pays you 50 cents when you have 1 Wild between two different symbols. I said myself that this is not possible! You win with 3 symbols better than with “5 of a kind”? Then I looked in the paytable and I found that the lowest possible payout for this game is 5 cents. Then how I had that win of 2 cents with 4 reels Wild extended?!!! When you play here is like you are in the “Twilight Zone”. Really, no kidding!

And there's something even stranger: there are 3 types of Wild. In the paytable it is said that the extended Wild is only possible on reels 2 and 4. Then how it happened that I had all the reels 1, 2, 3 and 4 simultaneously extended Wild?! I have not understood a thing from the game play here. With these 3 types of Wild I had at a moment different Wilds (extended, multiplying and simple) on all 5 reels. And what I won? 10 cents! And I say again, with 3 (different!) symbols you win even 1 pound! How can this happen?!

I have not waited to enter in Free Spins. It was so difficult to make the count of the winnings that I gave up this time. Probably other similar surprises were waiting for me.

Except for all these weird facts one bigger than another, the game is full of Wilds and is nice. But when the game pays you 2 cents when you expect to make 10 pounds and 1 pound when you expect to have no win, something is certainly wrong!
