Reel Talent from Just For The Win: Slot Review - the stage is waiting!

Get ready to take to the stage and wow the judges in this latest release from Just For The Win! Reel Talent is a modern era talent show and a casino game all in one. The contestants for this talent show are a strange mix of animals who wish to showcase their talents on the grandest stage of them all. These include a Lion who loves to sing, a Wolf who plays a mean guitar solo, a fire-breathing crocodile, and a rabbit who does magic tricks! Let’s see if the audience will go wild as we join these performers on stage in a quest for fame and hopefully lots of fortune!

Reel Talent is a 5 reel slot with 20 paylines that includes Respins, Superspins, and a Symbol Storage feature.

Special Features

The first thing to highlight is the Wild symbol which is represented by the word “Wild” displayed in a sparkling gold font. Like most Wilds, the main job of this symbol is to substitute for all other symbols to help create winning combinations on the reels.

Symbols in this game consist of the performers as well as their equipment. The most rewarding symbol by far is the Reel Talent logo symbol as if you land 5 of these on an active payline then you will win a nice payout worth 50X your total bet.

Whenever you land a win on the reels then you will trigger the Symbol Storage feature. Once activated, winning symbols will be stored in the column on the left-hand side of the reels and you will be rewarded a Respin. Symbols inside the Symbol Storage column cannot be removed during Respins and the only symbol that cannot be stored is the Wild Symbol. Fill up the column with 3 Symbols and you will trigger the Reel Talent Superspin feature.

The Reel Talent Superspin feature consists of 3 different levels and will only contain the stored symbols used to trigger it. If you have 3 different symbols then you will enter the Showtime Superspin level whereas 2 different symbols will allow you to enter the Big Stage Superspin level. If you are lucky enough to have 3 stored symbols of the same type then you will gain access to the Solo Performance Superspin level. As you might imagine, this is the most rewarding of all the levels as all of the reels will contain the same symbol which guarantees a huge win on the reels!

Theme, Graphics and Sound

The graphics are visually stunning as the game takes place on a stylish purple stage surrounded by dazzling lights. It evokes the exciting talent show atmosphere perfectly. Symbols are wonderfully designed and consist of the various animal performers on the talent show including a Lion, a Crocodile, a Wolf, and a Rabbit as well as their equipment including a Microphone, a Flame Torch, a Guitar, and Playing Cards. The animations are crisp as symbols speed down the reels and pop nicely with a shiny purple star when part of a winning combination. It's great that you are taken to a whole new stage setting whenever you trigger the Superspin feature. It really adds to the exciting gameplay.

The music is light techno with soft piano sounds which increase in tempo the more you play. It ties in really well with the talent show theme of the slot.
