HD Cinematic Action
As far as this game's aesthetics go, players should be generally pleased with the level of detail and clarity – after all, this game is marketed as being “HD”. However, in reality, there isn't too much to shout about, with a fairly uninteresting background which depicts a drawn curtain over a stage. What's more, there isn't really anything overly interesting about a box of popcorn! That said, we are sure that some punters will find the simplicity of the design to be quite refreshing.
The Rich and Famous
Finding a winning spin in this slot machine shouldn't be too difficult, especially considering the fact that punters can play with up to 25 paylines on the reels. However, it is also possible for spinners to lay down 1, 5, 10 or 15 paylines, should they wish to keep the overall cost of the total bet to a minimum. That is because the total bet value will be calculated as a multiplication of the active paylines and one of the following available line wagers: 0.01, 0.02, 0.05, 0.10, 0.20, 0.50 and 1.00.
It is important to know your bet per line because this the number that will be multiplied whenever you manage to find a winning sequence of symbols. You can see all of the possible prize-paying combinations in the following paytable:
Popping Bonus
One of the most rewarding accolades in the world of show business is to win an Oscar. And one of the most rewarding symbols of this slot machine is depicted by that little golden statuette. That is because the Oscar symbol is game's wild icon, meaning that it will appear on the reels and potentially complete formations of symbols for extra winning opportunities.
The only symbols that cannot be replaced by the Oscar wild, are the “Free Spin” scatter and “Bonus Game” scatter. The former of these icons will award total bet multiplier prizes worth 15x, 30x and 150x whenever three, four or five appear on the reels in any position. What's more, three or more of these icons will also reward a round of 12 free spins, with all wins doubled in value.
The “Bonus Game” symbol, on the other hand, will trigger a special side game whenever three or more appear scattered on the reels. During this game, players will have to pick a selection of hole with popping popcorn for the chance to boost their overall betting balance even further in the right direction.
A-Lister or B-Movie?
Hollywood film give punters the chance to experience the thrill of the movies while they spin the reels for some potentially lucrative prizes.
However, the reality is that this game doesn't really provide anything too exciting, because instead of showing us any real cinematic action, all we get are some symbols which depict the props and tools used to make the movies. As such, film fanatics won't get that same sense of magic that they might get when watching their favourite flicks on the real big screen.
