KISS Reels of Rock Slot Machine – Free Play & Review

It’s been 48 years since KISS was founded, and the band is still around, though they’re preparing to have their final concert in the next year or so. With great rock music, plenty of smoke and lights, and the unforgettable face painting that made them stand out, the members of the band managed to create some of the greatest shows for the genre, and they’ve been going strong for a long time. Now, we’re getting a rock-themed game that’s based on them, a branded Play n GO slot that’s sure to get the attention of anyone that’s into this type of music.

KISS Reels of Rock has quite a few Royals present, from 9 to A (without the K though), and all of them made out of metal. The next four symbols, in premium positions, feature the four members of the band, with their face paint on. As the wild, a Platinum Disc, marked with the KISS logo.

Developer

A prolific developer, Play n GO has a long history of creating rock-themed slot machines, so do check out their collection, if you’re a fan. Twisted Sister and House of Doom are two other releases from them, that have covered the genre with branded designs.

How To Play It

KISS Reels of Rock is played with the usual betting range, of $0.10 to $100, used to cover all available ways to win.

As for the game area that’s deployed inside, you get 6 reels and a total of 576 ways to win (2-3-4-4-3-2 symbols). At least 3 matching symbols are needed, landing left to right on adjacent reels, to make a win possible.

Special Features

The Kiss Platinum Disk is your regular wild, a substitute for all symbols, but also a way for you to get big rewards. It pays more than regular symbols, offering 15x the stake for each full combo.

Lock and Load is a random feature, which will sync two reels of the same size, to display the same symbols in similar positions. This can happen for the 1st and 6th reel, 2nd and 5th, or 3rd and 4th.

Drive Me Wild is also random, and only for the paid spins. It will place a wild on the reels, and all wilds currently present will apply 2x multipliers to wins.

To access the World Tour feature, you will need scatter symbols on the reels, at least 3 of them. You then choose one of the 5 destinations for the tour, each one giving you a different number of Normal and Encore free spins. You can go for 20 Normal and 1 Encore, 16 Normal and 2 Encore, 12 Normal and 3 Encore, 8 Normal and 4 Encore, or 4 Normal and 5 Encore. Depending on which version you go with, you have lower or higher volatility (Encore pays more, but you have to give up normal rounds to get more of the special ones).

Normal: you get the Lock and Load modifier for all rounds, so you always have 2 synced reels. With 3+ scatters, you get access to Encore mode.

Encore: you play on 6×4 reels, with Lock and Load active, and all wilds apply 2x multipliers.

Maximum Payouts

It’s a great music band, so I’m glad they did their game justice. This one’s highly volatile, it pays up to 50,000x the stake, and so it’s fitting for a band like KISS. The RTP can vary, it’s always like this in Play n GO slots, with the best value being at 96.20%.

Summary

KISS Reels of Rock is an excellent slot machine, a branded title that manages to offer not only a unique mix of features, but some of the best top jackpots around as well.
