Lady Glamour Slot

Madonna may have sang about being a material girl in a material world back in 1984, but over 20 years on the spirit of the song is alive and well. With Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian and countless reality shows about the glamorous lives of wealthy IT girls everywhere, does this WorldMatch slot game capture that world?

Pretty in Pink and Purple

The short intro really does give a neat idea of what the game is about. The title of the game is moved around its pink and purple background, it’s shiny, it’s zany and there’s disco style music. From there it moves to the game where the same background is kept. The edges form a handbag with the left and right stylishly having zips and the top having a leather design. Very nicely done.

‘Lady Glamour’ may have funky letters at the top of the screen but what you’ll notice most are the icons on the 5 reels. They’ll immediately transport you into that lifestyle, The limo, the lipstick, the cute dog, designer handbag, fashionable shoes and expensive watch. Not forgetting perfume, shades and the golden credit card. It’s all here. Thought has been put into these icons and it really improves the game. The music gets into the spirit by having a softer tone.

You Got Style, Girl

It’s a nice touch that symbols of the same value are gathered together and makes you question why other games don’t. It means you get 10 individual symbols and it’s easier to see them on the paytable page.

However, while on the top line they are put alongside each other, the others on the bottom line curiously aren’t. The top valued symbols are the handbag and rings, worth 500 credits for 5. The watch and shoes are worth a maximum of 250, and are considered more valuable than the limo and perfume. Also, rather oddly, the credit card is joint worst in terms of credits.

The fact you can play up to 25 lines is shown on the main screen that comes up when you change lines. You can also find the diagrams for each on the paytable page. It’s all well explained and clear to see. Within the ‘?’ section under the rules, it also tells you how to use the game toolbar controls to make it easier. In case you have missed the setting to change it to fast speed, it describes here how to do it. The same applies with setting limits on wagering, opening the private cashier and editing your balance, all subject to licensee settings.

Glamour Play

This is a 5-reel, 25-line game that is as fun to play as it looks. Starting off with 1 line, you can increase it to 5, 10, 15 or 25. Changing the betting options is just as easy, where you can select 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 or 200 credits.

If you want to splash the cash straight away, you can head to Max Bet where you’ll immediately be in the 200 club. It’s worth noting that these credits are only in cents and Euros. You can also let the machine do the work by using Autoplay, which has 7 different numerical settings going up to 1,000.

The rulebook is easy to find within ‘i’ and under the ‘?’ button, which also gives details of the wildcard and bonuses. Winnings are paid left to right, with the highest line paid. Winnings on multiple lines are added. The Wildcard, represented as a blonde with pink shades, replaces all symbols except for Free Spin, the Bonus Multiplier and the Scatter Winnings. The Wildcard is also worth 1,000 credits, 4 for 250 and 3 is worth 50.

There’s also the chance to win Free Spins, as represented by the high-end shopping bag, where you use the same lines and credits as your initial bet. Playing the Bonus Multiplier feels like going to the VIP room of the trendiest club, especially when your winnings show up in golden letters on a black screen. If you get a sequence of Scatters, you win the amount multiplied by the value of the symbol. Scatters pay in any line and any position. You’ll also notice that 3 of the Free Games icons are worth 2 credits.

Fun on the Reels

The name, layout and lack of big credits mean this won’t appeal to everyone but this is still a well-designed, enjoyable game that captures the glamour and femininity as suggested by the title. It sure looks a fun lifestyle.

Within the trophy symbol you will find diagrams of the 25 winning lines. You’ll also see that 3 and more Free Spin symbols are worth credits, as well as 12 extra spins. Most games play left to right, though here it can also go right to left with the highest paying out.

Winnings on the bet line are paid considering the symbols in succession from left to right; it is paid only the highest win per winning line. Any winnings on multiple lines are added.
