The Purrfect Match Slot Machine
Are you tired of playing the same old online slot machine themes, sick of staring at regurgitated ideas for internet gamblers, and fed up with feeling like nobody is really putting enough effort into the concept behind the cogs? If the answer to any of those was ‘yes’, then this 5-reel, 25 payline game could well be the one you’ve been waiting for.
Within seconds of the screen loading up it should become clear that The Purrfect Match has a wicked sense of humour. The peg is pretty simple- this is a kind of Blind Date/ The Dating Game, only rather than people looking for love, we have a bunch of hopeful felines desperately seeking the affection of another cat. See, we told you it was funny.
That wit runs through the imagery used too. The animals on display are unrealistic, cartoonish characters that we can almost imagine full personalities for. Each is named something like Bachelor #1, or Bachelorette, and they are all pretty damn irresistible unless you are a cold hearted cat-hater.
Furry Friends
So the rules are pretty simple, as with most online gamblers. The challenge is matching up like symbols in combinations of threes, fours and fives. The higher the combination, and the higher value the symbol, the more you’ll be walking away with when you finally strike it big.
The lowest value characters are actually letters, only with particularly feline qualities. These are J, Q, K, and M, and alone they are enough to make you break a smile. From hereon up the payscale, we start to meet some of the bigger personalities. Bachelor #3 looks like he may be a little full of himself, in contrast Bachelor #2 is an aristocrat (or should that be Aristocat, albeit without infringing on any Disney copyright?). Then we have Bachelor #1, who is either a geek or a hipster depending on your view on style. Then we have the Bachelorette, a beautiful, buxom lady cat who is looking for the love of her life, or just a date for the evening.
Playing the Field
So now we know the characters, it’s best to get to know how you play the game. Like all online gamblers, The Purrfect Match is about matching up like pictures and symbols, and winning money. Hardly rocket science.
However, there are some ways to adjust the size of your bet, and the number of bets you’re playing at once, in turn increasing your overall odds. So, add more to the Coin Size in the bottom of the screen. By doing this you’ll be ensuring that when you do win you win higher amounts of cash, which is never bad news for anyone. You can also add or remove paylines from the game. These paylines run from left to right, and only when symbols are matched along an active payline do you win. As such, the more active paylines there are the more individual opportunities you have to win.
Looking for Love
OK, so now it’s time to play the game for reel. Hit Spin and let’s get going. Obviously you know how to play, and you know how to win, but there are a few special additions we forgot to mention that you should probably know about.
First of all, you’re not restricted to just the Bachelors, Bachelorette, and letter cats. You also have two cats locked in an amorous embrace – Scatter. These symbols activate a free spin feature when three or more appear on any of the reels. That means you get to play The Purrfect Match for free, and potentially win cash with technically zero investment on your part. Not the worst offer anyone has ever had.
On top of this you also have the Wild card. This is a black cat (obviously), drying himself off on a towel. Quite what the relevancy of the activity is when the rest of this gambler is themed on a dating game we’re not sure, but one thing is clear- Wild cards can substitute for any other to form a winning combination, other than the Scatter symbol.
Feline Lucky?
With so much wit and originality at play in this classic 5-reel gambler, there’s very little not to like about The Purrfect Match. Not only do you get to win some serious cash prizes, you’ll be laughing all the way to the bank thanks to the wonderful, fantastical world that the developers have created for their gamers. The Purrfect Match is not just a clever name then.
