Play Chicago for Free

When you're playing this slot, it really does feel like you are watching an old movie and Humphrey Bogart is about to turn up at any moment. The sepia colour scheme makes you feel like you're wandering around a set at old Hollywood while also creating quite a grim atmosphere. It's like you can feel the tension building on the streets of Prohibition era Chicago.

In the background, you can see the grey murky sky along with the occasional skyscraper trying to pierce through the mist. The symbols also depict some staple characters from the film noir genre, including the run-down sheriff and the scruffy gangster smoking a cigar.

The great news for new players is that the gameplay is rather easy. All of the controls are neatly displayed in front of you and they are very easy to follow once you get the hang of things.

The three numbered boxes in the centre of the panel are the main controls. Here you can select how many of the 20 paylines you wish to bet on and how many coins you wish to wager. To the left you will also find an autoplay button, where you can spin the reels automatically while you take a break from the murky Chicago air. To the right you will find the start button, which will spin the reels for you. There is also a gamble button, which unlocks one of the extra features.

Not only does this slot has a rather appealing visual style, but it also has a unique bonus round as well. Land three or more of the scatter symbols on the reels and you will be able to play a bottle shooting mini-feature. All you have to do is aim and fire at the bottles and see how many of them you hit. The more you hit, the higher your multiplier will be. This can be an incredibly valuable bonus, especially if you are able to hit several of the bottles.

When you get three of the scatter symbols, you also get 12 free spins along with the bottle shooting feature. This is where you can really take advantage of the multipliers you win and get hold of some solid winning combos for free. There is always the chance that three more scatter symbols will fall during the free spins as well, meaning that you could end up with more than the initial 12 spins after all.

If you feel like you have the nerve of a mob boss or a disgruntled PI, then you might be interested in playing the gamble feature. It is a bonus option where you can gamble your winnings on a 50/50 chance.

When you hit a winning spin, the gamble feature will ask you to pick the colour of a card drawn at random from a deck. If you guess correctly, you will walk away with a 2x multiplier. If you are feeling lucky, then you will have the chance to guess again with the view to earning a 5x multiplier. Guess incorrectly though, and you will not only lose your multipliers and your winning from the spin as well.

When it comes to the range of slots that have been made by Novomatic, this has to be ranked as one of the most impressive. This visual style is unique and fits the old-school gangster theme to a tee. Not only that, but the bottle shooting bonus adds another layer of uniqueness, along with multipliers and free spins to keep winnings flowing thick and fast.
