American Dad is a new video slot available to play at Playtech online casinos. As many of you can guess, it takes its inspiration from the popular adult animated sitcom. Graphics are standard with red and white background that changes to the city in which they live during the bonus round. American Dad is a 5 reel 40 payline video slot. It is available on PC, tablets and almost all mobile devices. At first glance, I knew this game was going to be fun.
High value symbols include all the characters from the show. Lower paying symbols are J, Q, K, and A.
The slots logo is the scatter symbol while the alien Roger is the wild symbol. This wild symbol replaces all other symbols except the scatter. You’ll need to land the scatter on reels one, three and five to initiate the bonus round. If a player lands only on reels one and three, and re-spin feature starts on reel 5 to help the player get the third scatter. It is not a guarantee, but it is a nice extra in the game. Once all three scatters are received, they will start spinning. The first scatter will determine which character will play the bonus round. The second scatter will determine the level of power up of each feature. The third and final scatter will determine the number of free spins.
Each character in the bonus round has its very own feature. Take a look.
Stan symbols appear stacked on the reels below each Stan symbol. Scatter number 3 determines how many Stan symbols are added per stack.
Roger is a wild and will appear at random during each and every free spin.
Francine will turn to a expanding wild symbol which covers the whole reel if there is a fish symbol which appears in the same reel. This happens during every free spin.
Hayley is a multiplier and is found on the right side of the screen. The wheels and the legman go across the reels and make wild every symbol they go through. This also happens during every free spin. There is a lot going on during the bonus feature. It sounded confusing to me at first, but once I played the game, it all made perfect sense, especially when the money starts to increase.
The best chance for big wins is during the free spin bonus round, which by the way is the only bonus they offer in this game. The greatest chance is the Roger wild symbol. Land a few of these and add in the Hayley multiplier to the mix and wins will add up quick. I, like many, find only one bonus round a drawback, but this bonus round has a lot going on, and easily makes up for the lack of any other bonus.
If you already enjoy the show, you will like the new game that much more. And if you are already a member of Playtech casinos such as Fly and Omni, you can play American Dad!
