The United States celebrates its independence on the 4th of July, and the 4th of July slot celebrates the United States.
The 4th of July slot game has a standard setup. There are five reels, three rows, and 25 fixed paylines. The wagering options in this game will likely appeal to a wide range of gamblers. The lowest possible bet is €0.25, for a bet per line of €0.01. The highest possible bet is €250, for a bet per line of €10. As line bets determine the actual payout value in the game, this is an important factor to consider.
As for customization options, there aren’t too many available. When you play through a desktop browser, you can use Autoplay for 10 to an unlimited number of spins. During mobile play, you’ll only be able to turn on Autoplay for 25 spins at a time. Turbospin isn’t available for this video slot, but you can control the music and sound.
The normal symbols in this game fall in line with the overall theme of US landmarks. The White House and the Statue of Liberty are worth the most of these, followed by Mount Rushmore, the Empire State Building, and the Golden Gate Bridge. There are also two special symbols. First is the wild, which is represented by the game’s logo. Whenever it’s part of a winning combination, you’ll enjoy 3x the standard prize. In addition, five wilds are worth 9,000 credits, which is then multiplied by your bet per line.
Second is the scatter symbol, represented by the Welcome to Las Vegas sign. This awards the 4th of July bonus feature, which we discuss more below. The scatter symbol also offers hefty payouts – the highest in the game, in fact. Players who spin five of these Vegas signs can claim a 400x payout. Unlike the other symbols in the game, the scatter is paid out according to your total bet. At a maximum bet of €250 per spin, this is a max prize of €100,000. That’s not the end of your winnings either – there’s €300,000 up for grabs in the special feature.
The free spins feature in this game is one of the better ones we’ve seen. While it’s not too different from the base games in terms of style, there are far better payouts awaiting players. To trigger the free spins feature, you’ll need to land three or more of the Welcome to Las Vegas scatter symbols. When you do, you’ll be awarded 15 free spins. Additionally, you’ll collect a payout from the base game for each scatter you spin.
During your free spins, the value of your wager is locked into place, based on the amount you wagered when you triggered the feature. Here’s the best part: any wins that you collect during free spins is automatically tripled. This includes spinning five scatter symbols. While it’s usually worth €100,000 in the base game, you can actually collect a prize of €300,000 during this feature. As a nice perk, you can retrigger the feature at any point in the game.
The 4th of July RTP is set at 91.8%. In all honesty, this is an incredibly low return to player. Most video slots have an RTP of 95% or better. That doesn’t mean there aren’t opportunities to win, but gamblers who are keen on working with good odds might find this game lacking. The volatility is high. Wins are sporadic and somewhat infrequent, but the prizes you do win are likely to be quite valuable.
