Play Happy Hour for Free

For a game that's main USP is to try and give players great joy and excitement, the design has got to be good. The screen is dominated by the clubmeter clock – more of which later – with all the other in-play options displayed in a quirky and colourful way.

The shapes of the in-play information, such as hour win, happy hour prize and the shapes describing the bet 5 and 10 all have pointy corners and bold colours. These, plus the paytables, are placed on top of a background that features a number of wheels – giving the illusion of clockwork. This feature works as the game is about time, and the graphics on the Happy Hour slot game will help players spend enjoyable hours (rather than seconds or minutes) on the machine.

One negative about the display, that seems to be a common occurrence with Simbat games, is the fact all the icons that could come tumbling down the reels have no relationship with the games theme. In ascending order in terms of value to the paytable, these icons are: tomatoes, lemons, oranges, plums, blueberries, clovers, watermelons, golden bells and a bar icon placed on a blue and yellow background.

These icons are often found in other Simbat games, and it's a shame they couldn't include other symbols such as clocks or smiley faces. Otherwise, the overall display of the Happy Hour slot is superb and should be applauded.

The basic game mode features just the one active payline in the 3 reels and allows players to stake one credit on each spin.

One in-play feature that allows players to take control of what appears in the reels is the hold buttons that allow slot enthusiasts to hold a reel should there be valuable icons appearing in them. There are three info-graphics located below the three reels, one representing each reel, and players can click the respective button to stop a reel from spinning in the next play. Should there be valuable icons in the reels, players can hold on to them to line up a big win. Now that sounds like what Happy Hour should be all about!

For those that'd rather enjoy the top game, credits per line are either allowed to be 5 or 10 per spin. Those that bet the maximum and can line up three hourglasses on one of the 5 active paylines could win up to 10,000 credits – which is 50 times 200 credits!

Players will automatically earn 100 credits when three hourglasses appear in the same reels, and the player can try and increase this by spinning the bonus clock, which is in the centre of the screen. There are plenty of ways players can earn a huge payout on the Happy Hour slot game by Simbat.

Everyone loves to take advantage of a Happy Hour in a pub or a club, but when one comes available on an online casino game, it's the icing on the cake. Players will no doubt love to take advantage of all the great things Happy Hour slot game has to offer. It's time to have some fun!
