Kalamba Games has released a swinging new slot, Speakeasy Boost, with a Roaring 20s theme. The game has great visuals, and of course, a soundtrack befitting a 1920s jazz club. There are 3 Free Spins modes that offer a minimum of 7 free spins and plenty of multipliers. The maximum win of 52,500x the stake makes this game attractive for a broad audience, not just jazz lovers.
Slot Specs
Speakeasy Boost has 5 reels, 3 rows, and 243 ways to win. The opening scene features a Jessica Rabbit lookalike and an ensemble of hip jazz players. The soundtrack is mellow and exactly what players would expect of a jazz-centered slot. The RTP is way above average at 97.49% and the game is highly volatile. The maximum win is a staggering 52,520x the stake.
Symbols include 9 through A royals, a piano, trumpet, cymbals, cello, and drums. The 3 band members act as bonus scatter symbols and the redhead knockout is the wild.
Free Spins
Above the grid, there are 3 meters that show the player’s number of free spins. These represent 3 different versions of the bonus round, each starting with 7 free spins and going up to 25. Players who fill the 3 meters and then land 3 bonus symbols will trigger 1 of 3 Free Spins rounds. The round that's triggered depends on which jazz musician scatter triggers the Free Spins round.
The rounds include:
- x1 multiplier bonus round - Players get 7 free spins + 1 extra spin per 15 paid spins
- x2 multiplier bonus round - Players get 7 free spins + 1 added spin per 33 spins
- x3 multiplier bonus round - Players get 7 free spins + 1 extra spin per 50 paid spins
During the free spins, the wild symbols land with x2 and x3 multipliers. If at least 2 scatters land, players get between 2 and 10 additional free spins.
HyperBonus Feature
The HyperBonus feature offers a shortcut to the Free Spins rounds, for a price, of course. Players can choose from 4 bonus buy options, each of which comes with a different number of free spins, multiplier, and RTP percentage.
Bottom Line
Speakeasy Boost gets the jazz theme spot-on, and players can enjoy feeling like they’re in the middle of a 1920s jazz club. But the mellow vibe belies the game’s high volatility. This is not a game for the faint of heart, but rather, for those who have the guts to risk a lot to win a lot. The maximum win of 52,520x may be worth the risk, but players must decide this for themselves.
