Belissimo Slot Review

Belissimo is an Italian word that means ‘very beautiful’ in English, and is an accurate description of this Microgaming slot machine when one considers that it is about pizza. There is anundeniable, simplistic charm to the game, and while this is by no means an advanced casino game, it does have some modern characteristics to it that start to emerge as the gameplay gets underway.Not bad for a nearly 18-year old game release.

There is not much in the way of fancy bonus features in Belissimo. The gaming action is simple, but effective. Players will need to match up their symbols and hope to win on 5 lines, with noextra spins or bonus games forthcoming.

The closest thing that you have to a bonus is the wild chef symbol. If you are lucky enough to land this symbol, it will complete the missing combination that you are after on the slot machine,and it will secure you a win if your other two symbols are of the same type. He has a very infectious grin, so when he pops up on your screen, it is most likely that you too will be sporting awinning smile.

  This game is not available from the app store, but if your mobile device has a decent enough web browser, then chances are that you will be able to indulge in a bit of the old slots while youare out and about.

• Autoplay

  With more simple spinners such as Belissimo, it is of little value to players to actually have an auto feature. This is because of the raw feedback that a much simpler game such as Belissimoprovides, and as such will not be needed by players that are looking to enjoy themselves.

• Stacked Symbols

  The gameplay style does not make provisions for stacked symbols either, this is a classic video slot machine, not an interactive one.

• Symbols

  There are some great classics here: 7 (with a pizza oven behind it), Triple Bar. Double Bar, Single Bar and Any Bar symbols are all there for the taking. Last but not least, there’s thesmiling pizza chef symbol that crops up from time to time.

• Scatter

  Unfortunately, there are no scatter symbols in this format of slot machine as Belissimo aims to capture the old casino gaming experience.

• Wild

  The wild symbol is the grinning chef, he will complete your line and is a good omen for players that are trying to win big.

• Bonus

  No Bonus Symbol

This is a no-frills, fuss-free game for slot machine enthusiasts who feel that the advancements made in recent years to slot machines, with all of their bonus rounds, mini-games and randomjackpots are just uncalled for. What we have here then, is a standard slot machine with a fun theme. The sounds are pretty good, and if one listens closely while the reels are spinning, there isan audible whirring of the reels, with a slight hum that lets players believe that they are indeed playing an older style slot machine.

This is still a fun game to play, and will keep you entertained for a very long time, especially if the pizza chef decides to make an appearance while you are playing.
