Personal testers’ opinion about the Jimi Hendrix slot

Jimi Hendrix is a magnificent slot with timeless tracks and a high chance of winning. It is reminiscent of the Guns N Roses slot, which is also completely packed with bonus features during the main game.

Sadly, NetEnt restricted the opportunity to play this slot in some countries in 2016, which decreased its popularity and also made it more difficult to fill the prize pool for winning.

For this reason, we can only give a neutral recommendation when gambling with real money.  However, if you are really interested in NetEnt’s music slot line, here are some quick facts about the 4 specific games in this category of the Swedish Company portfolio:

Review and recommendations by the testing team

Jimi Hendrix is a thematic machine from NetEnt with excellent graphics and a great soundtrack, consisting of a few Hendrix classics. It’s colourful, has an original concept, has Low Volatility (i.e. decreased risk for your investment), offers interesting (high voltage) features and runs smoothly on any device.

• The slot quite regularly makes a series of dead spins in the regular game, or with a minimal win, just enough to cover your original bet or less. This can turn into a small bankroll loss, but due to the many bonus features, it does not only make up for the losses but offers enough potential to win. The chance of winning huge payouts, like 1000x bets and more, is practically impossible here. On the other hand, the machine generates payouts of 50x total bets, which is decent, knowing how often and how consistent those combinations occur.
• In the base game as well, the PURPLE HAZE feature is often activated, which means that low-paid symbols are substituted with Wild symbols. Mostly, the replaced symbols are not too many, which results in a minimal win of 1x – 5x bets. This makes up for the small loss in funds. However, during our testing sessions, it did frequently happen that 7 or 8 symbols were substituted, which resulted in wins of around 40x-60x total bets.
• Also, in the usual spins, the RED GUITAR RE-SPIN feature is activated when 4 or more RED GUITAR symbols land on the reels. It keeps on re-spinning as long as at least one RED GUITAR appears during every spin. Like with the PURPLE HAZE feature, when the RED GUITAR feature is triggered, not many additional symbols are added, and the payouts are about 1x-5x total bets or even no win at all. Meanwhile, during our tests, we also did succeed in landing 9-10 guitars, which brought about big wins of 40x-60x total bets.
• The PICK AND CLICK bonus game is triggered when you land 3 Scatter symbols on reels 3, 4, and 5. Then, you get the opportunity to click on loudspeakers, and depending on what you open, you receive Free Spins or a Coin Win round.
• This bonus feature is normally activated with a pretty high frequency, in a series of 3-4, with a small number of spins between them, and subsequently with large intervals between series.
• That’s why, if you land a bonus game, don’t hurry and move to the next slot. Usually, it can trigger up to 4 bonus features with a few spins in between.

1. The COIN WINpays out 8x-30x total bets. The good thing is that the slot often tends to give the maximum amount.
2. The CROSSTOWN TRAFFIC FREE SPINS rewards you with 6 Free Spins with Wild Stacked reels moving from right to left. When the Wild reels are on the first and second, and the second and third, combined with additional Wilds, the potential of this bonus feature is huge. On average, the payouts are about 40x-80x bets, but its potential is much higher and can reach up to 100x-150x total bets.
3. The PURPLE HAZE FREE SPINS feature is the one we mentioned before, where lower-paid symbols are turned into wild symbols. You are rewarded 6 to 12 Free Spins with this feature, but most of them don’t bring big payouts. Normally, 1-2-3 spins can be pretty lucrative when you land some good combinations with a larger amount of Wild symbols. The potential of this feature is one of the biggest, and winnings can go up to 100x-200x total bets, even though the average is generally around 40x-80x bets.
4. During the LITTLE WING FREE SPINS feature, for 6 to 12 Free Spins, 3 to 5 overlay Wild symbols are triggered randomly on every spin. The potential of this bonus feature is also big and can result in massive payouts. On average, it’s around 60x-100x total bets, but the potential of this feature is undoubtedly higher.

• In general, when you land three Scatters, the CROSSTOWN TRAFFIC FREE SPINS and PURPLE HAZE FREE SPINS features are more often activated than the LITTLE WING FREE SPINS and Coin Win feature.
• Because of the winning potential and the pretty consistent wins, the Jimi Hendrix slot is a good option if you decide to play with bonus money. The advised bet balance is 100x bets or more. It can also be suitable for playing with real money, but since there’s a lack of SUPER and MEGA payouts, not everybody will enjoy it.

How to win at the Jimi Hendrix slot machine? (Conclusion)

• It comes as no surprise to our regular readers that we recommend playing each slot in DEMO mode before placing real money deposits.
• This slot is very popular, which means the prize pool is filled quickly, excluding the restricted countries, of course.
• We advise you not to leave the slot after a one-time win in a bonus round because bonuses are often issued in series of 3-4 one after the other. Instead, go on for about 40-60 spins more, and if you still didn’t hit the bonus round, it’s advisable to pause or move on to the next slot.
• This game is very entertaining, so be cautious and choose the right moment to stop (the advisable leaving point is at a 30% loss of the initial capital). Before you notice it – during the compelling rounds, you might lose a big chunk from your bankroll, so know your limits.
• Jimi Hendrix slot is suitable for sessions with bonus money, as well as with real money. Have a balance of around 150-200 bets at your disposal, and always try to establish the ‘mood’ of the slot (hot or cold).
