Realtime Gaming (RTG) is a leading software provider known for its Real Series Slot games. In fact most of the slot games offered at RTG online casinos fall in this category. However, some of the other online slots are different from the pack and contain very interesting features. This article reviews two games Jazz Time and Food Fight located under the Video Slots sub category.

These are five reel online slots but have some features of the old land based slot machines. The player’s balance cannot be directly used to place bets. The player has to load the slot machine with desired number of coins of the chosen denomination. For example if he chooses 5c as the coin size and load $25 into the slot machine he will have 500 coins of 5c to wager with. This coin balance decreases and increases as he places bets and wins payouts and his balance with the casino remains unaffected. The casino balance decreases when he loads the slot machine and increases when he cashes out the remaining coins. When the player changes the coin dimension, his existing coins are automatically cashed out and he has to load the slot machine afresh.

The payout table is also different from the normal slot game payout table. Normally the payout increases exactly in proportion to the number of coins wagered and therefore the payout table only reflects the number of reels covered by a symbol in a winning combination and the payouts are automatically multiplied by the number of coins wagered. The same applies in the case of these two slot games except for one notable exception. The payout for five symbols in a payline with five coins wagered is more than proportion. For example in Food Fight five chocolate ice cream symbols pay 1,000 coins with one coin wagered but pay 6,250 coins (and not 5,000 coins) with five coins wagered. Therefore the payout table reflects both the number of symbols and the number of coins.

Food Fight has food symbols like ice cream, spaghetti, pizza slice and burger. There are two bonus features. The Ice Cream Scatter Bonus is played on the reels. If the three pieces of the ice cream cone, the cone, ice cream and topping, appear scattered on the reels at the same time they will assemble to form the ice cream cone and award the player up to 405 credits. The Food Fight Bonus is played on the second screen and it triggered when the three pieces of the pie appear scattered on the reels. The player can throw pies at chosen victims till he misses. The bonus awards up to 3,960 credits.

Jazz Time has jazz musical instruments as symbols on the reels. The bonus games are similarly structured. In the Big Money Scatter Bonus three pieces of a drum set have to appear scattered on the reels to award a bonus of up to 350 credits. In the Jazz Jam Session Bonus the player selects a jazz instrument and plays a note. If the note is fine he gets bonus credits and gets to select another instrument. However if he hits a bad note the bonus game ends. The maximum amount that can be won is 4,000 credits.

Food Fight and Jazz Time can be played at all RTG online casinos like Slots Jungle, Aladdin’s Gold, Planet 7 and Slots Oasis.
