Downton Abbey Slot Machine

As the most successful British period drama in history, and with a film deal looking likely, it is probably no great surprise that it is Aristocrat, of all the slot game producers, who are the ones to take on the official new slot machine for the ultimate in aristocratic themed TV series, Downton Abbey.

The British upper class are really throwing a lavish party on this new slot and all are welcome to the table, with an offering which includes expanded wild reels, free spins and five progressive jackpots. The serving staff refuse to be left out of the action with a kitchen bonus round granting extra credit prizes for collecting recipe ingredients.

Bigger and better seems to be a theme for new land casino games and the new Downton Abbey slot is no exception to this trend, with a massive double curved LCD screen offering a huge expanded 16x5 reel set to players. Join us as we enter the great abbey and weave our way through the intrigue on a quest to inherit real cash prizes.

Theme & Features

The game theme on this slot is based around the characters, sets and props of the hugely successful TV show it is based on. All your favourite actors and actresses appear, with supporting roles given to iconic period props and locations. Music and sound effects are quiet and in keeping with the classy tone of the game, you do get voiceovers on character symbol induced wins and bonuses which is a well-integrated touch seen before on games like TMZ.

By far the biggest draw on the game is the expanded wild reels, which can cover both screens and therefore a full 16 symbol high reel. Combining more than one of these wild reels will results in wins of many hundred times the games max bet, which is forecast to be only five dollars. The increased big win chance is likely to mean very high volatility when this slot is finally released, but as I isn’t complete right now, we will have to be patient before we know this for sure.

Although the expanded wild reels steal the show in terms of raw pay-out potential, the most entertaining, and the highest value for money section of this slot is the free spins round, triggered by any 3 scatters on the reels. Set in Mrs Patmore’s kitchen, you get 10 starting spins for the three scatters, whilst more can be re-triggered randomly throughout the round.

The free spins are confined to just one 8x5 reel set, as the upper screen now has four recipes for you to complete by collecting ingredients on any valid win line during your free spins round. There are four recipes on offer, from starter to dessert and completing them will grant you extra instant credit prizes on top of the wins you have collected in the free spins round. As the round takes some time to complete, it helps the game deliver real value for money in terms of gameplay time, which compensates for the lower value wins in the free spins round and the volatility in the base game.

Summary

Downton Abbey is a rarity, a high variance slot that manages to keep players engaged in between the big wins landing, none of the boredom or frustration associated with this style of slot appears here. Aristocrats slot get better all the time and this developer is well able of rivalling both ITG and WMS with its official slot’s range.
