The Slotfather is a June 2009 Mafia-related html5 video slot from Betsoft Gaming. Slotfather 2 (March 2017) is a sequel to this game whose thematic organized crime is perpetrated by a crime family that is lorded over by the Slotfather—an intentional misspelling of “godfather”, thus the game’s title—and enforced by his foot soldiers named Snake Eyes Sammy, Fat Tony, and Frankie.

The Slotfather’s rival games include Chicago (May 2013) from Greentube, The Cod Father (July 2013) from NextGen, and Kings of Chicago (August 2011) from NetEnt. Four symbols (Frankie, Snake Eyes, briefcase, and vintage car) require two, three, four, or five winning combinations. Eight symbols require (champagne, Fat Tony, ringed hand, submachine gun, omelet, map, cigar, and newspaper) three, four, or five winning combinations.

Ordinary symbols: black vintage car; champagne beside a goblet; ringed hand, partially revealing a black-and-white suit; omelet beside a wine glass; coastal topographic map; half-smoked cigar; and a newspaper, proclaiming “underworld ruled by the Slotfather”.

A briefcase that lands to the right or left of Snake Eyes prompts a payout. The submachine gun may land to the left or right Frankie, prompting this gun-toting man to pockmark the grid; players press one of the pockmarks that may unveil “12 free spins 10X multiplier”, “5 free spins 2X multiplier”, or “10 free spins 20X multiplier”.

3+ Slotfather images prompt the bonus game that is set in a nightly uptown; players decide the three locations where the foot soldiers will illegally install credits-offering slot machines—the installation choices are “bar”, “liquor mart”, “restaurant”, “casino”, “night club”, or “cigar shop”. Resulting from five Slotfather symbols and displayed at the counter on top right, the progressive jackpot is capped $314200.00.

The Slotfather’s good software: icons set on bowler hats and machine gun; supports desktop and iOS/Android smartphones; quick spin; and 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, and 100 autospins. There is ambient lounge music. Sounds effects: clanging, clattering, and rattling gun. The animated 3D graphics: cigar-smoking gangs, board meeting, bullet holes, dining Fat Tony, gun smoke, pockmarking, gun-cleaning Snake Eyes, and gushing legal tender.
