Friends

In a modern-twist on the classic slot machines, WMS introduces a virtual version of the iconic US sitcom Friends where players can join Rachel, Monica, Phoebe, Chandler and Ross as they play. With gameplay across 5 feature-packed reels and 40 pay lines, the potential to win big is unlimited with an abundance of wilds, bonus spins, mystery stacks, free spins and bonus features.

Friends Slot Overview

The slot is set against the infamous New York skyline, shown in the opening credits of Friends, while the reels depict a Central Perks coffee cup, Phoebe’s guitar and the Central Perks logo, as well as an assortment of famous scenes and other iconic moments from the sitcom.

Bet Strategy and Symbols

The bet range for this slot is 50p to £100, making it an attractive game for anyone’s budget. In game, a wild, represented by all six of the cast, will add 0.8 times the stake if 5 are matched on a payline. In addition to a wild, which is the 6 Friends together, there is also a Jackpot wild, which, when matching 5 on a payline, gives the player 10 times their stake. If the player is able to get a full stack of Jackpot wild symbols on reels 2, 3 and 4, the Jackpot feature is triggered, giving the player 2,000 times their total stake!

Friends Slot Bonus Features

When it comes to bonus features, this slot machine has plenty to offer, with four main features: Thanksgiving feature, Wedding feature, Party feature and Bamboozled feature. These can be accessed through the Mystery Stacks feature, where each reel contains unknown symbol positions, which are all replaced with matching symbols in order to boost the player’s chance of winning!

The Thanksgiving Bonus feature offers the player a chance to get 10 free spins, where all pay outs are trebled. The Wedding Bonus feature is similar in the chance of 10 free spins, while any wild that lands on the reels will remain in place throughout the remaining spins. When playing the Party Bonus Feature the player receives 11 free spins, with the chance of filling 1 or 2 of the reels with walking wilds. On the 1st and 11th spin, the wilds are locking in on the first reel, while this changes to 1 and 2 on the 2nd and 10th free spins. On the 3rd and 9th free spins, wilds lock in on reels 2 and 3, and on reels 3 and 4 during the 4th and 8th free spins. In free spins number 5 and 7, the wild is locked onto the 4th and 5th reel, while on the 6th free spin, it is locked on reel 5.

Finally, the Bamboozled Bonus feature. After receiving a pay out of 10 times the player’s stake, they will get the chance to play a ‘pick me’ round. Picking from 20 cards, the player can reveal the Hungry Monkey, Paradise Pool, Angel Pass, Golden Mud Hut and Gimmie Award jackpots. You continue to choose cards until you have uncovered 3 identical jackpot cards, which will land the player an enormous jackpot prize, worth 25, 100 or 1,000 times the total stake. If matching the Gimmie Award jackpot, the stake is multiplied by 2,000!

Conclusion

Although some might say that this slot lacks the sleek look of a classic slot machine, it offers so much more to the player in terms of bonus features, wilds and bonus wheel spins. If you are a fan of Friends, this is the perfect slot for you. Even if you don’t love it, the bonus features make play worthwhile.
