There’s no scatters or free spins in this Reel Talent mobile slot, and yet it’s got five stars – bear with us, we have really really good reasons.
When you are a high variance slot machine, it’s hard to walk a fine line between giving you features that create big wins out of nowhere but still keep things exciting the rest of the time.
Games like Novmatic’s Book of Ra just accept that you are going to need a little patience.
But this Reel Talent slot, surprisingly, doesn’t test your patience as much as higher volatility slots can, thanks to those magical symbol collections and re-spins.
This Just For The Win slot (JFTW) doesn’t have traditional free spin bonus games.
What it does have is a collect symbol feature. On every win on a single payline, you collect that symbol on the left of the reel.
If you don’t manage to collect 3 symbols in one spin (or 3 wins), you get a re-spin to give you another chance.
Why do you want that to happen? Because you then get a superspin where the reels spin with only the symbols you’ve collected.
So if you get 3 wins with the same symbol, you get a guaranteed 5 of a kind win on all 20 paylines. Who doesn’t love that idea?
JFTW have, in the past, gone a little generic with themes; think the Amazing Aztecs online slot taking you to South America or Temple of Tut game welcoming you to an ancient Egyptian tomb. OK, but no standouts.
Their best game has a hint of creative uniqueness that we love. Sure it’s an animal safari slot, but you’ve got singing lions, rocking wolves, fire-breathing crocodile and magical bunnies.
Think America’s Got Talent but in the wild. It’s fun, it’s quirky and it connects nicely with the main Superspin feature.
This Reel Talent slot game can be a little frustrating sometimes; certainly. It might not test your patience, but it might have you grinding your teeth at times.
Yet, the thrill of watching those symbols collect on the size of the reels is wonderfully different and we hope to see more JFTW casino games like this in the future.

Wild: The "Wild" symbol is wild and will replace all other symbols in order to create a win on an active payline.
Symbol Storage: When you get a win with a symbol on one payline, that symbol will be stored on the left-hand side.
When you get 3 wins on 3 paylines, whether in one spin or on consecutive spins or re-spins, you are awarded one superspin.
Respin: If there are still empty positions in the symbols storage after a win, you get one re-spin to try and catch more symbols in the symbol storage.
Superspin: When you collect 3 symbols in the symbol storage you get a superspin.
Three different symbols in the storage will give you a showtime spin, two symbols of the same and any other one symbol will trigger a showtime spin, and three symbols of the same type will trigger the solo performance.
What's the difference between them? Honestly the graphics.
But for good reason: on each stage, you have a chance to win a little more.
Because these Reel Talent superspins only spin the symbol that has been stored. And if you have a solo performance, you only have one symbol, meaning you are guaranteed a win.
We suspect that not everyone will agree with our 5 star Reel Talent slot review.
Mostly because if you like to play slots with more bonus features than you can count... go play on Hanzo's Dojo slot or something.
Because this mobile casino machine is for those of us who enjoy the simplicity of one big feature that keeps you on your toes.
Think the conjoined reels of Twin Spin slot or even the extra spinning wild reels in JFTW's own Rainbrew game.
So the collect symbol here gives us a fresh twist to the re-spins and superspins, that doesn't make you miss the more traditional free spins.
Who needs traditional when you have singing lions and streetwise bunnies?
Reel Talent is a 5 reel 3 row 20 payline slot with a symbol collect feature where 3 consecutive wins will give you a superspin when you get one spin with just those 3 symbols on the reels.
