Free slot: ZZ Top Roadside Riches

How ZZ Top Roadside Riches works

ZZ Top Roadside Riches is a slot developed and published by online game provider Play'n GO, a historical provider that is making a comeback after a slow period in recent months. This slot was launched in early August 2021 and is now available at many online casinos. As the name suggests, the ZZ Top Roadside Riches slot features the famous blues rock band ZZ Top, as has been done before with bands such as Black Mamba and Sabaton. This latest creation can be considered as a tribute since Dusty Hill, the central character of the band, unfortunately passed away only a few days ago. This slot has an original format, with 5 reels of 4 symbols. As with most slots, to win on ZZ Top Roadside Riches you will need to see connections of identical symbols. Only 3 similar symbols on the first 3 reels are enough for a connection to pay off. There are no predefined paylines in this online game, the connections here are adjacent. If you are passionate about music, American culture and slot machines, then ZZ Top Roadside Riches is for you!

There are no special features to be found during the paying spins of the latest creation of the Play'n GO provider, however there are 2 special symbols in the base game which can allow you to increase your winnings. Indeed, there are two wild symbols that will replace any symbol except the scatter and that will act in a completely different way.

The first special symbol is called Gimme Wild. This symbol is used in both base and bonus games and will multiply the winnings by 2 or 3 when it is involved in a connection during a payout round.

The second wild is called the Legs Wild and is represented by the leg of a woman wearing red heels and tights. When a Legs Wild appears, it will span the entire reel and greatly increase the connections and payouts.

ZZ Top Roadside Riches Symbols

The ZZ Top Roadside Riches slot has many symbols that need to be connected in order to win. The value of all symbols is predefined according to their frequency of appearance and they are divided into 2 categories: classic symbols and premium symbols. Classic symbols are the easiest to connect. They appear very regularly, however, they are the symbols that pay the least. They all have the same value and are represented by the symbols of a card game, namely clover, diamond, heart and spade.

The following image shows the payout range for each of the classic symbols in the ZZ Top Roadside Riches slot. The values shown below are for a bet of €1.

The symbols that follow are a little more difficult to connect but have a higher payout. They are represented by objects paying tribute to the group ZZ Top, among which we find the famous black glasses and the buffalo.

The final symbols in the ZZ Top Roadside Riches slot are of course Billy, Dusty and Franck, the band members. These symbols are very difficult to connect, but if you do manage to connect them, you will win a lot of money. Again, the amounts shown below are for a €1 bet.

The different connections of ZZ Top Roadside Riches

As explained above, unlike most slots, there are no predefined paylines in ZZ Top Roadside Riches. Connections are adjacent, which means that a connection pays out as soon as the same symbol is present on at least the first 3 reels, regardless of its location within the columns. This slot is played exclusively from left to right and only the maximum win per line is paid. Thanks to this system of ways, there are 1,024 different ways to make connections in this slot. The following image shows an example of a valid connection on the left and an example of an invalid connection on the right.

How the ZZ Top Roadside Riches bonus works

The ZZ Top Roadside Riches slot machine offers its users the possibility to access two different bonus features in which free spins are awarded. In order to get these free spins, at least 3 scatters, represented by the ZZ Top group symbol, must appear on the same game spin. It is not possible to get additional free spins during the free spins, as the scatters are removed from the reels during both bonuses. The number of free spins is awarded randomly and the possibilities vary depending on the number of scatters obtained:

• 3 scatters = 8, 10 or 12 free spins;

• 4 scatters = 8, 10, 12 or 15 free spins;

• 5 scatters = 8, 10, 12, 15 or 20 free spins.

Once you've got the ZZ Top Roadside Riches bonus, it's time for you to make a choice between the two features present in this slot: Gimme Free Spins and Legs Free Spins.

• Gimme Free Spins: A Gimme Wild will appear on every free spin and will be accompanied by a x5 multiplier that will affect the winnings from the wild. The wild can only appear once per reel.

• Legs Free Spins: A Legs Wild will appear on every free spin and will span the entire reel. The wild will move one row to the left before each spin, until it falls to the far left of the grid.
