Slot Review:
American Icon
Who doesn’t love American Idol? The bad
contestants, the enthusiastic karaoke performances, the judges, Ryan
Seacrest… it’s basically the quintessential American contest and
reality show all rolled up into one glorious package. The American
Icon online slot game from Vegas Technology is a spin-off of the
very popular show on the FOX network in America, that has been also
transmitted into countless other nations and inspired several other
national contests. American Icon lets you pick a player from a pool
of twenty-six and sing your heart out in the hopes of winning a
million dollar contract! Of course, by “sing your heart out” we
really mean “spin your heart out!”
American Icon is a five-reel, twenty-five payline online slot
machine title. You may bet between one cent and ten dollars per
coin, with the option to bet as many as two hundred fifty coins! You
read that correctly – you could bet TWENTY-FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS a
spin! That’s pretty much the highest wager we’ve seen, and high
rollers will surely flock to play this game. The jackpot of one
hundred thousand coins won’t hurt, either. That’s a million dollars
as the fixed top prize!
American Icon is set up like a talent competition, with the player
progressing (hopefully) through several different stages of play. As
you move through, you will be offered contracts for different
amounts of money. If you elect to sign the contract, the game is
over and you win that amount. You must bite the bullet and persevere
for a chance at the top prize. Will you be willing to risk
everything to become the next American Icon?
