Belissimo! is one of Microgaming’s classic games and has a distinct feel to it, largely due to the bright theme. It is an amusing three reel slot with five paylines and a fairly traditional feel.
Theme
Belissimo! features a fun pizzeria theme. The pizza chef seems to be an exceptionally cheery chap who is happy to offer his customers much in the way of prizes. The backdrop comprises a traditional red and white Italian style chequered tablecloth with the chef appearing next to the logo at the bottom of the screen, poised and ready to dish out rewards. For the most part, Belissimo! relies on traditional slot symbols to decorate the reels. These include bars, stacked bars and golden number sevens. In a charming added touch, whenever a winning combinations appears, the appropriate symbols blink, just like on a real slot machine. To the right of the reels is a pay table that displays the value of all symbols, which helps you get your head around the different symbols’ worth and makes the game easy to follow.
Wild Symbol
Not content with looking particularly pleased with himself on the main screen, the pizza chef also acts as the Wild Symbol in his game. The protagonist’s dazzling smile can substitute for any other symbol on the reels in order to create winning combinations. If you are lucky enough to land a chef icon on the fifth payline then you can win up to 5,000x your line bet.
Verdict
Belissimo! is a fun and entertaining slot that is easy to play. The graphics are cute and the quirky theme is delightful. The extra paylines mean this classic slot offers some serious chances at winning a decent jackpot prize and the modern touches keep players from getting bored. If you enjoy classics such as Bar Bar Black Sheep definitely checking Bellissimo out.
