Top of the Slots is a video slot which is themed around the hit television show Top of the Pops. A weekly TV show which would unveil the latest weekly tunes over the last fifty odd years. The slot uses a 5 reel format with 20 paylines and a trio of features including a wild symbol and two themed bonus games.

Top of the Slots Theme

The five reels are backed by a retro jukebox with a logo at the top and a text display below which updates with stereotypical DJ puns and sayings from yesteryear. The designers have brightened things up with colorful line markers and vibrant reel icons.

The icons include various logos marking each decade that the show aired, each is themed to. These include the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and 00s. These are mixed in with guitar icons, top of the slots logos, record sleeves, keyboards and bonus icons (jukebox).

Many of the icons use standard sound effects whilst others come complete with bespoke ones. You’ll also notice that the buttons all play a different keyboard sound which should provide musicians among you with a great ad-hoc keyboard to bash a few tunes out on.

Total bets range from 0.01 (yep a penny slot) to £/$/€200. This is achieved by choosing one of the fourteen coins which range from 0.01 to £/$/€10 then combining it with the 1 to 20 paylines.

Top of the Slots Features

The Top of the Slots logo can substitute for all other symbols with the exception of the bonus scatter. Five of these in a row also pays the 10,000 coin jackpot.

The piano symbol pays a random win when it appears when two or more appear on the reels, it’s a bit of an odd scatter but offers more wins which is always a welcome feature.

Two or more record symbols launches the Records mini game. You’ll choose five options and if two or more match you’ll win a prize. Two matching icons pays 50 coins, 3 pays 500 coins whilst 4 or 5 pays an impressive 8000 coins.

The jukebox bonus round is awarded with three or more bonus icons. The jukebox then automatically selects a random multiplier which awards an instant win. You can then collect your winnings, collect half or risk it all by betting again. Be forewarned that this can result in you losing all your bonus winnings, or you could multiply up.

The nostalgic appearance may not appeal to everyone's tastes, but fans of the show may appreciate it. The bonus rounds offer a little more excitement whilst this slots saving grace is the 10,000 coin jackpot which can payout a maximum $/£/€100,000 jackpot - now that is rock and roll!
