Lock It Link Diamonds Slot
This particular version, compared to the Lock It Link Night Life slot, is all about glamour and riches as the name might suggest, much like Betty Boops’ 5th Avenue slot. Elegance and wealth is what this slot stands for, and hopefully you’ll be able to make yourself richer after spending some time playing. Both use a 5×3 layout, and is a 243 ways to win slot, so you don’t have to worry about paylines. Winning combinations start from left to right. The following are the base symbols for the Diamonds slot, ranked in ascending order based on value:
- Diamonds, Hearts, Spades and Clubs (lowest value)
- Martini
- Diamond Ring
- Watch
- Dice

Lock It Link Night Life Slot
Compared to Diamonds, Night Life is a bit more wild, yet still as fancy and ritzy as ever. The symbols in this game feature flashy cars and other extravagant items. Here’s a list of the base symbols in ascending order:
- Jack, Queen (lowest value)
- Ace, King
- Suitcase
- Champagne
- Yacht
- Fast Car
- Suave Man
- Gold Coin (highest value)
You can see in this version that there are additional symbols, and the Gold Coin is also Wild, substituting for all the above symbols. A winning combination with one or more Gold Coin that forms part of a winning combination pays double.
Lock It Link Slot Bonuses and Features
Feature Selection. This is the defining feature about Lock It Link, granting the ability to choose from either the Lock It Feature, or the Free Games Bonus. Both of these work in the same way for each variation, but are triggered by either 3 scattered diamonds (for Lock It Link Diamonds slot), or 3 scattered City symbols (for Lock It Link Night Life). They award 5x total bet.
- Lock It Feature. If selected, 1 spin is awarded from an alternate reel set which guarantees 3, 4 or 5 red heart symbols on a random row to trigger the feature. Before the reels spin, a number of positions will be replaced with either a red or gold heart symbol. The chance of a gold heart symbol appearing increases with bet multiplier. For each of these gold hearts on reels 1,2,4 and 5, Mini or Minor bonuses appear. For each on reel 3, Mini, Minor Major or Grand bonuses appear. These bonuses will trigger the respective jackpot. At the start of the feature, 1x total bet will be placed on each gold heart appearing on the triggering row. All the feature symbols that triggered the feature will be joined together by a border and locked in place. During each heart spin, any red hearts that land will lock in place for the rest of the feature, and when landing adjacent to a border, the border will encompass it. If the number of surrounded red hearts increases, then 1x total bet will be added to each surrounded red heart, and the number of heart spins will reset to the original value.
- Free Spins Bonus. You’re awarded 6 free games for this straight off the bat. During these games, 3 scattered City/Diamond symbols will award an additional 6 free games and 5x total bet. It can be retriggered if 3 or more scatter symbols appear in the same game. For each free game, all wins are multiplied by a multiplier which is based on the number of gold coins/bars on the screen. 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 of these award a 3x, 4x, 5x, 6x, 7x or 8x multiplier, respectively.
To Summarize…
Having the option to choose the type of bonus/feature you’d like is a great way to add some interactivity to a slot, and is largely why the Lock It Link slot series is so popular. The glamour and style this game oozes make it a perfect fit for any casino, but remember that you can also play online.
