The Hot City game can be found at Net Entertainment casinos. Net Entertainment do make the house edge information of their slots games available and this can be found in the help files of the game (usually accessed by pressing the ‘?’ button at the bottom left of the game window). Net Entertainment games appear to only have one setting.
Hot City is a game for all the girls that were in love with the Sex in the City Movie franchise. All about shopping trips, mobile phone, romantic dinners and shoes, it’s undoubted who this game was targeted at.
This game is a 5 reel game, with 25 paylines and you can bet up to 4 coins on each payline.
There are two bonus feature available when playing Hot City. The first is activated when three or more of the ‘Just Married’ scatter symbol land anywhere on the reels. When this happens you will be awarded a number of complimentary spins dependant on the number of Just Married symbols that turned up. All wins during the complimentary spins carry a three times multiplier.
The second bonus feature is activated when three or more of the ‘Present’ bonus symbols turn up in a row on any payline starting at the left of the screen. When this happens you’ll be taken to a shoe boutique screen where a flashing light will rotate quickly over a selection of shoe boxes. When you press stop the light slows down until it stops on a pair of shoes. Each time the light lands on a pair of shoes you receive a prize. The first time the light lands on an empty box the bonus feature is over. There does seem to be a degree of skill to this feature as timing when you press stop seems to increase your chances of landing on a prize. This however could simply be observational bias.
Conclusion
With a relatively low house edge for a slot game and an interesting bonus feature with the possibility of skill increasing you chances for a win, Hot City is an excellent choice.
