Blinged (Play’n GO) slot review

Blinged slot – it’s a stunning successor to the immensely popular Pimped slot.

Pimped (released in 2015) is a rappers slot where rappers love to showboat their wealth. For that time, Pimped was one of the most volatile slots ever, and the win potential was sky-high. It was indeed appropriate for such a theme.   

Now Play’n GO released a lovely counterpart, where young divas get all the attention.  

By the way, such a theme is only more than appropriate nowadays. You see, more and more young women (in their early twenties) who are incredibly successful.   

Who has not heard of Kylie Jenner, Ariana Grande, Nicki Minaj or Selena Gomez? All of them have around 200 million Instagram followers, and only Christiano Ronaldo tops them on this list.  

We could argue that it’s about time to have a slot with this theme!  

The max win is 5,000x the bet

It is pretty much the default max in for most Play’n GO slots.

Nowadays it’s not particularly extreme, but I bet you’ll be more than satisfied if you land such a win!

Blinged slot – Gameplay and Features

Blinged has 5 reels with 3 rows of symbols and 10 fixed paylines. 

The premium symbols are a pair of Golden (Spice Girl like) shoes, a Stack of Banknotes, a Golden Ring, 3 Young Ladies, one good-looking Brunette with a cap and blazer and golden earrings. 

The Wild symbol is another handsome Diva with a purple cap with the letters WILD.  

The Brunette is the best–paying symbol and has a win of 75x, for a 5-of-a-kind. 5 Wilds on a payline is good for 100x.  

The low-paying symbols are, even though they look very bling, the playing cards 10, J, Q, K and A. 

The Diamonds (which look fantastic) are the Scatters. 

Win Spins

The main game plays straightforward, as Pimped does. The most striking feature is the Win Spins.
 

If you land two scatters, you get 1 Win Spin, which is a free respin. If you spin a winning combo in the Win Spin, the feature ends. But if you fail to make a winning combo, an additional free respin follows.  

It continues until you get a winning combo. Isn’t that generous to give you a guaranteed win?

Free Spins Bonus

If you spin 3 scatters, you activate 5 Win Spins.  

What’s most appealing is the increasing multiplier. Every time, you don’t manage to spin a winning combination with one of the Win Spins, the multiplier increases by +1.  

The multiplier doesn’t reset during the Win Spins. It can become pretty lucrative. 

By the way, if you spin 2 Scatters during these Win Spins, you‘re awarded an extra Win Spin (up to a maximum of 20 Win Spins).  

The road to success is to get many respins in the beginning (as you fail to make winning combos) and build up a sizeable multiplier. 

In that case, you’ll get a massive win if you manage to spin a 5-of-a-kind of those beautiful Brunettes or Wilds.  

Payout Rate (RTP)

Blinged’s default RTP is 96.25%. However, there are plenty of versions with a lower RTP in circulation. Before playing, it’s best to scan the Blinged game rules.   

The variance of Blinged is medium

Play’n GO gives Blinged a relatively modest score of 6 out of 10 for the variance. In other words, the variance is medium.   

I expect that the top wins are mostly around 500x the bet. It makes this slot considerably less volatile than Pimped. 

Not everyone wants to play volatile slots!  

Other fantastic Play’n GO slots, with medium volatility include Twisted Sister, Win-A-Beest and GEMiX. 

Pros and Cons

Advantages:  

• Fantastic theme and excellent counterpart of Pimped. 
• Impressive music and animations and the ladies are incredibly stunning. 
• The risk you take is limited. 
• It’s pleasing to the eye.

Disadvantages:  

• You won’t become rich with this slot. 
• The gameplay is a little less bling.

So, who’ll like the slot? And who won’t? 

Players who prefer the relatively more straightforward slots (without overly complicated gameplay) will appreciate this slot. 

And who’s not fond of this theme?  

It is a medium variance slot; you won’t become a millionaire, unlike some of these bling youngsters.
