Back in 1950’s, during the first years of Rock’n’Roll music popularity, it was often called “The music of Devil” by some ultra-orthodox religious preachers. At first, rock musicians denied any connection with hellish forces, but few decades later, when harder sub-genres of rock music were developing and the shocking style was becoming the most popular way of winning more fans, some of them started to use elements of Satanism in their image. Some went as far as to devote their songs to the Lord of Hell and even preach his teachings in their interviews.
Guitar Devil – Hellish Rock’n’Roll-Themed Slot Machine
Nowadays, rock music is not as shocking to most commoners as it used to be half a century ago. No one would now seriously claim that Rock’n’Roll has some connection with Satanism. But the image of Devil has formed a strong association with the rock culture. Even while no mainstream rock musician would ever play all the “Satan worship” for serious nowadays, this theme is often played for laughs, especially by the fans of Tenacious D.
No wonder that association between Hellish forces and Rock music is often exploited in different media, including video games. Guitar Devil is one of such games. As this game is a slot machine, and gambling was also often associated with vice, it can be said that this time Casino Technology have made a really good choice of the theme.
Anyone Can Play Guitar Devil
Gameplay and Prizes
Guitar Devil is almost as democratic as rock music is, so this game needs no registration and no ing. Everyone can play it and even win real money in it. The value of the Jackpot in this game is 1000 dollars. The game is played by spinning 5×3 reels, but the number of paylines is higher than it usually is in similar games and can be varied in range from 1 to 30.
Judging from paying symbols, this game is more “Guitar” than “Devil”, as they mainly consist from musical-themed image, including a combo amplifier, a charming female singer, drums and, of course, a guitar. Good old deck of cards from Jacks to Aces is also used among the paying symbols that add a taste of classics to otherwise modern Guitar Devil.
Of course, there is a place for the image of Devil between game symbols. The background and interface are mostly decorated in red and black shades that add to hellish atmosphere of the game. The graphics and animations in Guitar Devil are very good, especially when the bonuses are triggered.
