Harveys Slot Review

Those of you who are Judy Garland fans might remember her movie ‘The Harvey Girls.’ If so, then you’ll know that this slot game has a theme based on the Harveys restaurant where you can tuck in to a great meal. It’s another slot from Microgaming who always seem to dish up a great game to play.

There are plenty of chances to get some good wins here because the game has a total of 25 pay-lines. They are all packed onto five reels with three rows of symbols but don’t worry too much about the cost of playing this slot. Not all of the pay-lines have to be activated on every spin of the reels. If your decision is to go for the minimum coin level but activate all 25 pay-lines, then you’ll find yourself spending just €0.25 for the pleasure of doing so. The maximum you can spend on a single spin of the reels is €50. Just work out a budget and then stick with it and enjoy playing this slot.

Tasty Symbols

Probably best to play this slot after you’ve had something to eat. Several of the symbols in the game are going to really get you feeling hungry. There’s shellfish, a bowl of soup, les escargots and a dessert that will really get the pounds piling on you. There are also the ten to Ace playing card symbols that give you a steady stream of low-paying wins.

Fancy Some Champagne?

The handsome waiter is the wild symbol in this game. That has the ability to get you some decent wins when it appears and substitutes for another symbol. It’s not able to sub for the red matchbooks though. That forms the scatter symbol here and nor can it substitute for the champagne bottle. Keep an eye out for the champagne bottle as it only crops up on the second and fourth reels. When it does make an appearance it plays a big part in the game as will shortly be explained.

No problems playing this as you’ll find far more complicated games than this one. Even so look at the paytable to find out more about the rules of the game and how much each winning combination will give you. Some free games will also help educate you before you start pumping some real cash into this slot.

The game can be played in either regular or expert mode. The main difference between the two modes is the ability to set an autoplay. Either go for the basis one that sets five or ten autoplays or set a more precise number. This can stop the game when your balance reaches a certain level or when a big win comes along that you definitely want to keep in your account.

Random Successes

Now it’s usually the scatter symbol that helps trigger the bonus game but not here. Instead the champagne bottle symbol has that honour. Remember it only appears on the second and fourth reels so when it crops up on both at the end of a spin then it’s into the bonus game you go.

There’s a random number of free spins awarded to you and a multiplier. That could be as high as 25x so there could well be some big wins on their way to you if your luck is in. Also it’s possible to re-trigger the free spins so this could really get that account balance of yours climbing.

This game also has a gamble feature. Be careful with this as it’s an easy way to just give back hard earned wins. It’s up to you if you do want to play it or not. This comes up after a win in the base game and s is often the case it’s of the guess the card variety. Guess the colour of the next card to double your win, guess the suit and quadruple it. All good and well and you can play up to five times in a row but it’s so easy to get carried away and lose your win.

Final Comments

An enjoyable enough game. The theme is a decent one, soundtrack acceptable and not too dear to play. The bonus round can be a profitable one to play and doesn’t require you to be activating all the pay-lines all the time. Be wary of the gamble feature though and try to hold onto your precious wins.
