Gordon Ramsey: Hell's Kitchen

Turn up the heat in the kitchen with Gordon Ramsey: Hell's Kitchen, the online slot from NetEnt. The foul-mouthed chef is here to turn the air blue, and hopefully, your bank balance golden, with a fun new slot game based on a cookery theme. And if you're lucky, you might just cook up the top prize of x1000!

You can play all kinds of online slots at Bwin, and no matter what theme you prefer, you’re sure to find something you enjoy. Celebrity slots such as Gordon Ramsey: Hell's Kitchen are very popular, but it’s not NetEnt’s first foray into the world of the rich and famous. Previous titles included Guns ’n’ Roses and Ozzy Osbourne video slots, all very in keeping with Gordon Ramsay’s bad boy image! 

If you've ever watched Hell's Kitchen, you'll know that Chef Ramsay believes less is more, which is why you'll be playing on a very restrained 5x3 board that includes 20 fixed paylines. There's no holding back on the betting, though, with a range of 0.20 to 400.00 sure to please all. The volatility is low to medium, so that you can expect more frequent, lower prizes than big-money payouts. 

As the game loads, you'll feel Gordon's piercing blue eyes staring uncomfortably into your soul, so you'd better hope that your dishes live up to his high standards! Once you're in the game, you'll find the Michelin-starred chef in the background surrounded by a halo of fire. On the reels, it's all about the food - as Chef Ramsay would expect.  

The low symbols are the royals lit up in neon, running from J-A. Moving on up, you'll find a quartet of dishes to make your mouth water: toffee pudding, Gordon Ramsay's signature cocktail, a juicy burger and at the top, an elegant Beef Wellington. Match a full five of the Beef Wellington, and you could collect a healthy reward of x10. 

Gordon Ramsay is renowned for being more than a little bit crazy, so it’s entirely appropriate that the logo for his game is the wild symbol. This will help you to make more matches as the symbols land on the reels.  

However, there’s more to the wilds than just substituting for single symbols - and we’ll find out more about them below. 

Gordon Ramsay has exacting standards for every plate of food that leaves his kitchen, and you’ll find this slot stuffed with a myriad of tasty tidbits.  

Ramsay’s Wilds Feature is triggered randomly and gives you 5-7 wilds on a single spin. As these can substitute for any of the regular symbols, this can be very helpful in lining up a win.  

The glaring, fiery head of Chef Ramsay may look terrifying, but it's a sight you'll want to see. This is the scatter, and if you land three or four, you'll unlock the free spins round, receiving 10 or 15 Team Challenge Free Spins respectively.  

Before the Team Challenge Free Spins round begins in earnest, you’ll need to choose your team: red or blue. The team you choose to join will be in a cooking competition against the other team.  

Between one and three Order Up symbols will appear on the reels on every free spin; these are multipliers of either x2 or x3. However, before you start celebrating, you'll need to check the colour as only the Order Up symbols in your team's colours will apply to your wins. There are also Team Wilds where 3-8 wilds will be added to help you out in the kitchen. At the end of the round, the team with the biggest score will win the cook-off. 

But winning the cook-off isn't just a matter of professional pride; if you either win or tie the competition, you'll trigger Gordon's Bonus Game. This is a Pick 'Em bonus where you'll be presented with 15 of Gordon's menus, and it's up to you to choose which ones you want. But pick wisely - there are X symbols behind some of them, and if you uncover three, your bonus round will finish. Behind the other menus are random cash prizes and various multipliers; these will keep adding to your prize total until the round is over.  

With the dulcet tones of the chef himself ringing out over the reels, there's a lot to enjoy in Gordon Ramsey: Hell's Kitchen. NetEnt have done a great job of creating an atmospheric slot that really captures the essence of the chef himself - minus the foul language. The low to medium volatility and modest top payout means that while this is an enjoyable online slot for all, it's probably best suited to low rollers and casual players…and fans of Gordon Ramsay, of course!
