Hot City
Play at bet365 Casino
If you love Sex and the City and aspire to live your life in a whirlwind of parties, shopping sprees and trips to the hairdressers then Hot City is the slot for you.
Whilst none of the imagery, characters or music from the show are actually used, you’re left in no doubt as to the inspiration behind the game as soon as the music starts playing and the jewel-encrusted pink handbag framing the reels appears, with a glitzy Manhattan backdrop to complete the picture.
Game play
Start spinning and you’ll feel like one of the gang straight away as various girly symbols appear, including engagement rings, mobile phones and yellow cabs. You can play from 1 to 25 lines and there are 4 bet levels with coin values ranging from 1p to 50p if your casino allows it, making for minimum and maximum bets of 1p and £50. That you can join in the fun whether you’re a newbie player in your first job or a sophisticated girl about town looking for a quick flutter before heading off to the wine bar…
Basic matching symbol wins will land you anything from 3 to 150 times your bet level, with the higher wins paid out when you line up the girls themselves – who, incidentally, look very similar to the SATC characters in case you’re worried that any lack of official endorsement will spoil the fun – which it won’t. Line up the girls to win 1,000 times bet level, which at level 4 will yield you £2,000 at the 50p coin value, which will buy you at least a few pairs of Jimmy Choos…
Wild symbol
As this game is based on a TV show it would be a crime if there’s wasn’t some sort of story development here, and fortunately there is – and you won’t be surprised to discover that it’ concerns dating: The wild symbol is a sizzling candlelit dinner for two, and 3 or more of them will get your pulse racing with some vastly-improved payouts of up to 10,000 times bet level – a maximum of 40,000 coins.
Scatter
You can probably guess what the scatter symbol is going to be about by now: Yep, it’s the Big Day, and if you land 3 of these – depicting one of the girls and her dream man bounding off into the sunset in a pink Jaguar – then you’ll be given a massive 30 free spins on a triple multiplier, which beats a soup tureen as a wedding gift any day of the week. To make it all the way up the proverbial aisle in this game you’ll need 5 wilds during free spins on bet level 4, bagging you 10,000 x 3 x 4 coins, which comes to 120,000.
With all the excitement it’s easy to forget that there’s a feature game, but there is: Trigger this one and you’re taken to a designer shoe shop to open boxes. It’s a typical tombola-style round, but nicely designed: As long as you keep finding shoes you can carry on opening boxes to increase your winnings and give yourself an excuse to go and hit the shops for real…
What do we think of the Hot City slot game?
There are a number of slots out there specifically aimed at females, but not many – and of those that are available, this is the pick of the bunch. It’s the perfect way to get your heart racing before hitting the town to meet the girls for a big night out, and an pick-me-up for the times when you’re stuck indoors, sick of the TV schedules or can’t face the thought of doing your chores. Pure escapist fun…
