In case you needed another proof that NetEnt rocks - here’s one for you. Jimi Hendrix slot is dedicated to “arguably the greatest instrumentalist in the history of rock music”.
The game looks cool, with the symbols of the sixties on the reels, and pretty graphics. More importantly, it sounds fantastic as well. “Foxey Lady” plays subtly in the background, the winning combinations are accompanied with distorted licks and Jimi’s phrases, and on especially big wins full-on guitar solos play.
All this would have been enough to buy us over, but the slot is also stuffed with cool gameplay features - extra wilds, respins, and three different types of free spins.
Gameplay
Alright, the main game first. Here you have a standard wild (Jimi’s portrait), a scatter (another Jimi’s portrait with a guitar), a special Purple Haze symbol (yet another portrait, this one with purple background), and Red Guitar re-spin. The Purple Haze symbol of the first reel turns all the “cheap” symbols (card letters) into wilds. Four or more Red Guitar symbols activate the re-spin feature, where all the guitars are fixed in place, and the reels spin until no more guitars appear. The three scatters on reels 3,4, and 5 activate the Pick and Click bonus.
“Jimi Hendrix slot has three different rounds of free spins, two randomly triggered features, and a standard wild.”
In the bonus round you click the loudspeakers and reveal symbols, representing different bonus features. When you get three matching symbols, the respective feature starts. The possible options are:
- Coin win: you simply get 3 to 30 totals bets. This is kind of a consolation prize
- Crosstown Traffic: 6 free spins, where one or two wild reels move from right to left
- Purple Haze: 6 to 12 free spins, with cheap symbols turning into wilds
- Little Wing: 6 to 12 free spins, with 3 to 5 extra wild appearing randomly on the reels with each spin
Our Opinion
Jimi Hendrix slot exploits cool theme and does it perfectly. Not just that, it also offers enough great features to keep you playing for a long time. Add to that a pretty high RTP (96.9%), and you’ll realize that it could not have rocked harder.
