The setting for Time for a Deal is a TV studio filled with lights, cameras and moody lighting - watching over proceedings is our animated host, Roger. The reels include A to J playing cards as well as a selection of prizes you might win on a particularly generous episode of Bullseye. They include a toaster, a camera, a beach scene, a ring and a car (but sadly no speedboat). The car is the best standard payer - 5 of these on a payline and you'll drive away with 1,000 coins.
They're joined by the Time for a Deal logo which is the wild - it substitutes for everything apart from the bonus and scatter symbols and awards payouts of 100, 500 and 2,000 coins. There are 3 main features on offer in Time for a Deal which are as follows:
The Big Deal Bonus feature - to trigger this, you'll need to land the bonus scatter (Roger's glamorous assistant Violet) on reels 1, 3 and 5 on the same spin. Pick from the 3 doors - if you find a silver coin, you'll get to spin 3 reels on the Big Deal Slot Machine. Find a gold and you'll spin 5 reels. You'll then get to spin a new machine where every reel contains a multiplier. Your total stake will then be boosted by the accumulated multiplier won from the Big Deal Machine. Jeffrey can boost your wins here too, randomly doubling or trebling the outcome or even giving you another spin.
Free Spins feature - land 3 of the Free Spins symbol (Roger) on reels 2, 4 and 5 to trigger this one. You'll be taken to a new screen - pick 1 of the 5 arrow symbol to reveal how many free spins you've been awarded. This can be anything up to 25.
Then pick a cross which will turn a random symbol into a wild and a star which awards a multiplier prize. The free spins then play out with your accumulated extras. When you've finished your free spins, Roger can appear and offer you a deal. You can keep your winnings from the free spins or take the host's mystery prize.
Reel or Deal feature - this can hit at random on any spin. The reels are hidden and a winning combination created. Roger will make you a cash offer - you can take the offer or gamble and see what's waiting in the hidden reels. The host can help you out here by revealing 1 of the reels or increasing his cash offer.
Time for a Deal is a progressive jackpot slot game - to trigger the jackpot, you need to land the Big Deal Bonus feature. Find 3 gold coins while spinning the Big Deal Slot Machine and you'll take down the big one.
Ash Gaming has created another fine looking game in Time for a Deal - the high definition, 3D style visuals are very impressive. They've managed to pack plenty of features into the game too. The grinning host offers a nice level of interactivity.
Throw in the Big Deal multipliers, the extra goodies on offer in the free spins plus a shot at a progressive jackpot and you'd be hard pressed to turn this deal down. However, I do prefer other Ash Gaming titles with Adventures beyond Wonderland highly recommended.
