Austin Powers Video Slot Review

Join the ‘International Man of Mystery’ in the all groovy Austin Powers. Based on the cult film comedy, it’s an anarchic 5 reel, 25 payline video slot from Blueprint Gaming that’s absolutely rammed full of extras. They include 3 base game modifiers as well as 6 triggered bonus rounds. You could also land a progressive jackpot prize. Join the superspy on all devices from between 25p and £500 per spin.

Groovy Baby

The 1960s-style imagery from the Austin Power movies is present and correct in this slot version. On the reels you’ll see flower power A to 10 symbols alongside Felicity Shagwell (Heather Graham), Dr Evil and of course Austin himself. The logo is the most rewarding symbol, paying 16 times your bet if you land 5 on a payline. There’s also a wild that awards up to 20 times your bet per payline.

3 game modifiers

Like many of Blueprint Gaming’s branded slots, that are a huge number of extras on offer in Austin Powers, starting with the 3 modifiers that can strike at random on any base game spin:

• Sharks with Frickin’ Laser Beams feature – look out for the shark below the reels which fires a laser and turns a random assortment of symbols wild.
• Dr Evil Big Win feature – Dr Evil nudges the reels up and down. This shift in symbols creates a new winning combination.
• Mojo Wilds feature – a vial of mojo smashes onto the reels causing a series of symbols to float onto the screen and turn wild. A new payout calculation then follows.

6 bonus features

As well as the 3 modifiers there are 6 triggered features. Land 3 bonus symbols on the same spin and you’ll progress to the Bonus Selector which determines which feature you’ll get. Trigger the Selector with 4 scatters and a multiplier of up to 10x is applied to any of your bonus wins.

• The Cryo Lab feature – here, Austin has been in cryogenic hibernation. He needs to defrost. First though, there’s a trip to the loo. The longer he takes there, the bigger the reward.
• Fat Bastard Free Spins feature – 6 free spins are awarded, complete with a colossal wild which can create some monster winning combinations.
• Mini Me Free Spins feature – land this round and you’ll play 10 free spins. The Mini Me symbol is wild. When it hits, it locks in position for any free spins you have left.
• Fembot Free Spins feature – your reward in this round is 5 free spins. Boosting your winning chances here are stacked wilds.
• Volcano Lair Bonus feature – this is a pick me style round. Have a look in Austin’s spy bag. Finding objects delivers instant cash prizes.
• Submarine Lair Trail feature – in this cash bonus, you work your way along a trail, collecting bonus prizes as you go. Hope to find keys which activate a tractor beam which deliver bigger prizes.

Rude, crude & highly entertaining

An Austin Powers slot was never going to be the height of sophistication and this adaptation is as silly, crude and anarchic as we hoped it would be. The retro visuals are nicely done, backed by a classic Herbie Hancock score. There’s plenty of variety here so you really shouldn’t get bored.

The bonus features can pack a decent punch too, especially if you manage to get a multiplier active on the triggering spin. With wins of 500 times your bet on each spin or free spin, the potential 10x multiplier can lead to 5,000 times bet payouts! If you liked the movie, then this slot version of Austin Powers should be ‘groovy, baby’. If you want more games based on films and television shows, visit our dedicated Movies/TV slots section.
