TIME SPINNERS SLOT REVIEW
The Time Spinners slot created by Hacksaw Gaming plays out on a default 5 x 4-reel grid, with 10 paylines, up to 96.19% RTP and a high variance level.
Time Spinners is definitely for the hard thinkers as its theme can basically be described as a time theme but beyond that, it’s difficult to say exactly what it is about ‘time’ that the game focuses on and it’s somewhat dark in the overall vibe.
Nonetheless, when it comes to the core function of a slot game, Time Spinners doesn’t disappoint that much at all.
GAME LAYOUT
A massive brick wall provides the background graphics to the Time Spinners slot game. Drilled into the wall are four steel pillars. Some chains bound to the four steel pillars help in suspending the reel grid in its correct horizontal-vertical format.
It’s difficult to tell if the background graphics have something to do with the game’s time theme hence another thing to worry about for the big thinkers among us.

BONUSES
- Wild: Time Spinners comes with two wild symbols. These come in the form of the pocket watch icon and the ‘W’ inscribe symbol.
- Scatter: The ghost icon acts as this slot’s scatter symbol.
- Wild Multiplier: When the pocket watch wild lands on the reels and is involved or substitutes to complete a win line, it awards a wild multiplier. The wild multiplier awarded ranges from 2x to 12x. The wild multiplier is applied to the payout. If there are multiple wild multipliers in the same win line, their values are added before being applied to the payout. During the base game, up to 10 wild multipliers may land while 15 wild multipliers may land during the bonus game.
- Sync Your Watches: The golden pocket watch is the sync symbol. If this symbol lands, all wild multipliers on the reels are synced to the highest multiplier value which is presently on the reels.
- Borrowed Time Bonus Game: The two-phased Borrowed Time Bonus Game is launched upon landing three ghost symbols. The two phases of this feature are the collect and payout phases. The phases play out as follows:
- Collect Phase: Players start the phase with three free spins. The free spins reset to three each time a special symbol lands on the reels. If players spin the reels three times without landing a special symbol, the game transitions to the payout phase. The symbols that land during the feature are the echo symbols (dice icons), sync symbols, special pocket watch and non-winning symbols (broken pocket watches). Landing the normal echo symbol (brown dice) adds the value displayed on the dice to all adjacent wild multipliers. Landing the epic echo symbol (blue dice) multiplies all adjacent wild multipliers by the value shown on the dice.
- Payout Phase: Players are awarded an initial three free spins during the payout phase. An additional free spin is awarded for each spin refill that occurred in the collect phase. Only the standard paytable symbols land on the reels during the payout phase.
- Bonus Buy: Directly from the base game, players can gain access to the bonus features instantly. To do this, players just need to click the bonus buy button on the main screen and choose the feature they want to activate. Afterwards, players should pay the stipulated price to ensure that the chosen feature triggers on the next paid spin.

CLOSING
Time Spinners is quite a unique and innovative slot machine in terms of the ambiguity of its thematic focus. While this is the case, players can expect an entertaining and enterprising gaming adventure as exemplified by the max win which stands at an impressive 10,000x the wager made per spin.
Overall it has a really unique but odd theme, but well worth playing though.
