Classic pokies are cool to me, and they hold a special place in my heart as they bring me back to a time when casinos were at their prime. Bally Technologies knows as much about classic pokies as anybody, as they have developed casino games for many years on end. Hot Shot is a pokie that mixes the feel of classic games with a new fashioned video pokie. Is the game worth your time?
Read on to find out.
When it comes to looks, Bally's Hot Shot pokie isn’t going to necessarily leave you with your mouth hanging open from excitement, but the game is very nice in the way it presents itself. Reel symbols are presented in a wonderful classic way, with bar symbols, bells, and other classic Vegas symbols making themselves prominently known.
Animations aren’t spectacular in the normal sense, but the blinking and glitz that goes with the wins is great, and you should will enjoy them just as much as anything you see from complex titles.
There aren’t many deep features in Hot Shot, but this pokie is great if you are a fan of classic games. There are 25 paylines and Free Spins in the game, which come up quite frequently and bring enjoyment to an overall pretty simple pokie.
I started playing Hot Shot with a $50 balance and ended up playing the game for about 20 minutes before moving on. I picked up many small wins, but my biggest hits came on Free Spins. I ended up coming out slightly ahead with $64 in wins when my time was up.
Overall Hot Shot is a great classic themed game that fans of 3-reel style pokies should check out, as it is a good mixture of classic and video themed pokies. There aren’t a ton of features but the game is definitely worth a look.
Overall: B+
