Despite the name, the Hot Shot Progressive mobile slot does not have a progressive jackpot. But it does have a top win of 10,000 times your bet, so there’s that.
You know how some video slots are so simple, they can only be classified as a video slot because it has 5 reels?
This Hot Shot Progressive slot falls neatly into this category. You have 5 reels and 3 rows of 7s, bells, and bar symbols, but no wilds, no free spins.
Just a classic Bally slots theme to go with what is a classic gameplay machine.
You’ll notice that above every reel there’s a little jackpot ranging from 10x your bet on reel 1 up to 10,000 times your bet on reel 5.
If you get 3 scatters anywhere on the reels, you get a shot at those jackpots. Because the scatters will turn into mini slot machines, and you’ll get one spin on each.
So while this Bally video slot doesn’t technically have any free spins, you do technically get 3 spins on 3 slot machines when you get 3 scatters.
Easy-going and volatile don’t usually fall in the same category, but this Hot Shot Progressive slot game falls neatly in this one of a kind category.
Mostly because despite being a 40 payline slot machine, the wins on 4 or 5 of a kind are decent, as that’s mostly what you’re playing to get.
The jackpots are nice to be fair, but getting anything over 10x your bet is a bit like trying to play a slot machine within a slot machine; you need double the luck.
At least you don’t have to do the big bet like in Monopoly 250K slot, which makes a nice change for a Bally game.

Mini-Slot Scatter Bonus: Any 3 scatters (show as a mini slot machine) anywhere on the 5 reels will trigger a mini game.
The three (or more) scatters will turn into actual 3 reel slot machines and spin, each with their own distinctive paytable - but the top amounts you can win are:
Reel 1 BLAZING 7s: 10x your bet
Reel 2 DIAMOND LINE: 50x your bet
Reel 3 DOUBLE JACKPOT: 100x your bet
Reel 4 TRIPLE JACKPOT: 1000x your bet
Reel 5 SEVEN TIMES PAY: 10,000x your bet
Each scatter will then give you one spin of the slot machine to determine how much you win.
These mini 3 reel slots only have one payline in the centre of the machine.
This Hot Shot Progressive slot on mobile looks impressive, with its blazing 7 symbols and multiple pay lines.
But at heart, this is a classic slot machine with 5 reels, as the base game has little but symbols win.
That's not a bad thing per se, but if you like your game with more bonuses, we recommend you check out 3888 Ways of the Dragon slot or La Bomba by NextGen instead.
However, what you do get here is a shot at 5 jackpots ranging from 10x to 10,000 your bet, and some mini-slots within a slot.
For lovers of classic one arm bandits.
