High Fashion introduces you into the world of modeling, of fashion shows and runway models, with all the glitter and the beauty that comes with all of that. The game certainly tries to put you in the right mindset, with its gorgeous graphics, beauty supplies, shoes and models that appear in it. The action takes place during a fashion show of some kind, as you can guess from the reflector lights and the high-end look of the room where the reels are placed.
Feature wise, High Fashion does alright, combining all the usual feature symbols (wilds, scatters) with two types of bonus rounds, free spins and even multipliers. The Major and Minor progressive jackpots are available as well, plus the slot’s own $125,000 top prize. The game was created by RTG, has 5 reels and 25 bet lines.
Features of High Fashion
RTG decided to go all out when it comes to features in this game, so they’ve included multiple bonus rounds, triggered either through the scatter or the wild symbol. You usually get only one bonus round, thanks to the scatter symbol, but in this case we get a lot more action.
There are two different wilds in High Fashion, represented by the images with the Male Model and the Female Model. They each appear on their own reel (Male on 1st, Female on 5th), and they can substitute for all the other symbols, with the exception of the Runway scatter. Whenever one of these models does its thing and a new combination appears, you are going to get something extra thanks to their 2x multiplier and its ability to double prizes.
The Runway, with a model walking on it, serves as the other major feature, the scatter. Though it also triggers a bonus game, the scatter’s most impressive accomplishment seems to be the huge prize it will award whenever five of these symbols are present. I’m talking about a 1,000x multiplier applied to the total value of your bet, up to $125,000 cash.
Models Feature
This feature is the one that the wild symbols trigger. You need the Model symbols to be present on both reels they are allowed on, so on the 1st and the 5th. Get both of them at the same time, and you will get 5 free games out of it.
For the duration of these free spins, the first and/or the last reel will be filled with wild symbols, so you only have three reels left to get identical symbols on.
Runway Feature
The second bonus round offered is called Runway and it requires a minimum of three scatter symbols. Once again, you are rewarded with 5 free games, during which you get the 3rd reel that has only wilds on it. The feature can be retriggered, but instead of scatters you need wilds on both 1st and 5th reels, in which case you get an extra 5 spins.
Betting options and jackpots
High Fashion has a total of 25 lines and it requires the use of an identical number of coins in order to activate them all (though it’s not obligatory). If you can spare $125 that you can afford to spend per spin, you will find that it’s the maximum amount allowed. It uses coins of up to $5, with the lower limit at $0.01.
Though the game only gives you up to $12,500 from normal symbol combinations, things change for the better once you look at the scatter’s own cash prize. It awards up to $125,000, plus you get a chance at one of the two progressive jackpots which are awarded randomly.
Design and symbols
Games that appeal to fashion enthusiasts need to look good, and High Fashion does exactly that. The red color is predominant in it, but despite its heavy use the game looks great and quite tasteful. The area behind the reel looks high end, with reflectors lighting up the runway.
Symbols: Male Model (wild), Female Model (wild), Runway (scatter, 1,000x the bet), Stylist (1,250x), Glossy Magazine (500x), DSLR Camera (250x), Red Shoes (150x), Bracelet (100x), Make-up (100x), Modeling Contract (75x), Lotion (75x), Hair drier (75x).
Is It Worth Playing?
Absolutely, especially if you enjoy the fashion world, but also because of its multiple features and its payouts, which are higher here than in your typical RTG slot.
You will find High Fashion at any online casino which chooses to use software from RTG, playable either for free or for real money.
