The Family Guy slot machine game works on a 3 x 5 reel interface, or a credit of fifty. Similar to other games in the penny-base slots, this version has a good chance of becoming one of the most played. Geronimo's Palace is the Native American-owned Casino seen in 'The Son Also Draws' located in New York. Leonard Cornfeathers is the boss of the casino. When Peter pretends he is in his tribe, Leonard makes up the Vision Quest. Employees include Sees You Coming, Deals With His Wrist and Watches You Pee.
When a casino game designer is able to secure the rights to a popular franchise, they know that they are in the big bucks. They know that people are going to flock to their games no matter what they look or play like, simply because they have that big license attached to it. As a result, you could probably expect the Family Guy slot machine from IGT to not be an exception to this rule. However, it is. While the Family Guy slot machine is hardly the most innovative game in the world, it is a popular game, and it is one that you are likely going to play even if you are not a fan of the source material.
The Theme
Obviously, the bulk of the ‘thrill' of this slot machine is rooted in the theme of the game, and we really do not see how IGT could possibly mess it up. All of the main characters in the game have their own symbol. There are also a few additional symbols from key ‘props' in the series e.g. a gun, a TV and some beer. All of the images have been drawn in the Family Guy style, and look as if they have been lifted right out of the TV series. We can find absolutely no fault in the whole aesthetics of the game. Sure, it is just a skin which has been slapped on top of another IGT slot, but at least it looks good.
The sounds are also fantastic. They are a little bit repetitive, but if you love the Family Guy show, we seriously doubt that you are going to be reaching for that mute button. They are all ‘classic' sounds from the TV show, and if you have seen more than a few episodes, you are likely going to be familiar with them. All in all, there is a ton of color packed into the game. It looks fantastic, and really does ‘feel' like a Family Guy slot machine. As mentioned previously; if you are not a fan of the TV show, it is likely that you are going to still have a bit of fun playing the game, but we can't really imagine that you are going to be getting that much out of the theme. However, let's be honest for a second, the bulk of people who play slot machines are really playing to make a little bit of money. They don't care about the theme. You are going to feel the same when it comes to this slot.
Progressive Jackpot
One thing that people don't really talk about when it comes to this slot machine is the fact that it is a progressive slot. There are four different progressives in Family Guy, and all of them can be won randomly if you are lucky enough to trigger the bonus rounds. They can easily creep past the million-dollar mark too. However, do be aware that this is not the most popular slot machine in the world, which means that the progressive jackpot is never going to be wildly high. Many people report that it is also a bit tougher to win the progressive here than in other games, so if you are solely playing to become a millionaire, then you may want to look elsewhere.
It is worth pointing out that there is a massive downside to this being a progressive slot. This is the fact that the house edge will be higher as a result. Throw in the fact that it is a licensed property which needs to pay the right's holder on every single spin, and the house edge is going to be pushed even higher. As it stands, the house edge sits at 5%. While it is not the highest percentage ever, it is certainly high. Couple this with the fact that the volatility of the slot is creeping towards the higher end of things, and you probably will need a fairly decent bank roll if you want to stand a chance of either making a profit, or at least breaking even.

The Features of the Family Guy slot
Each of the characters in the game (except Meg, nobody cares about Meg) have a special feature tied to them. These features can occur randomly, and will change up symbols or add new wilds to the reels. It is a fairly decent feature, and they occur often enough that they will keep the money rolling in. If you are lucky enough to trigger Peter's feature (the rarest in the game), you could win at least 200x your initial bet. However, don't count on this one popping up regularly, if at all. The other features in the game are incredibly thematic, if a little bit basic. The Drunken Clam game, for instance, is nothing more than an interactive Pick-Me game but offers tremendous prizes to boot.
The same with the Chicken Fight game, although there are multiple levels for you to progress through, with each win that you have in this game pushing your multiplier ever higher. To cap it off, there is also a free spins game built into the Family Guy slot. You can earn 10 free spins by triggering this feature. You will be enjoying wilds galore here, and you have the opportunity to win the progressive jackpot as you play but, sadly, this is not a feature that you are going to be seeing pop up that often.
