NSYNC POP

Start frosting your tips, practicing your slick moves and get yourself ready to win some stupendous wins. Justin, JC, Lance, Joey and Chris haven’t been a unit for some time now, but thanks to Play’n Go, you can relive your late 90s/early 00s past by playing the reels of NSYNC Pop. Yes, we're all screaming with excitement about this reunion, but let's not forget that this is one of the latest online slot games available to all players at our casino site, which means the chance for cash prizes are on offer. You'll find three very respectable features, namely free spins and the Encore Spin Feature, to get us popping collars and pulling out the insanely epic choreographed dance moves.

We usually start these reviews by discussing the theme, which in most cases sees us rant about another Egyptian, Irish or Chinese-themed spinner. Obviously, if you listened to the radio in the 90s/00s, you won't need any introduction to NSYNC. One of the biggest boy bands of their generation, Play’n Go, has brought us some nostalgia that we all very much appreciated. We’ve had a few online slots based on famous groups; Guns and Roses by NetEnt being a prime example, and as to be expected, you'll have all the members posing as symbols in NSYNC Pop. There are 5 reels to the grid, with 144 paylines to be made use of. The number of rows per reel changes from reel to reel, going 2, 3, 4, 3 and 2. However, the number of rows per reel can expand at points in the game.

The most that Play’n Go has made available in NSYNC Pop is 5,000x your stake, which isn’t as big as an NSYNC world tour, but will still be something to sing like no one is listening should you land it. It would seem this is one of the many online slot machines we host that cater to players looking to take their iGaming session easy, and this is due to the low maximum stake limit of 10.00 per spin. Some slots allow you to wager over 100.00 per spin. The minimum wager allowed is 0.10, and as there is high volatility, it might be an excellent strategy to start low and work your way up as you become accustomed.

NSYNC Pop might have a very flashy theme, but there's nothing flashy about the mechanics of the grid. There are lower-value icons, higher-paying icons and some symbols to bring added value. The lower paying symbols are playing card suits clubs, diamonds, hearts and spades, while the higher paying symbols are the five stars we all know and love.

The group posing represents the wild symbol, with JT leading the blue steel stance. The wild acts as all regular icons to form part of winning combos. The scatter and the POP are the only symbols the wild won't be substituted.

The POP symbols are valuable in that they act as mystery symbols. Whenever they land, they can morph into the same regular icon in order to make wins.

Landing 3 scatters on reels 2, 3 and 4 on the same spin will trigger the free spins feature. The number of free spins you'll receive is 8 in total, but to go with this are two extra rows, with 1 above and 1 below the existing rows. These consist of POP symbols, but if a POP lands on any existing reels it "pops" the POP symbols in the new extra rows. This creates additional paylines, as the standard number of 144 can go all the way up to 2,400. Any POP icons landing in free spins become sticky wilds.

If you pop all the POP symbols in the free spins, it gives you the Encore Spin Feature. This sees all POP sticky wilds in place, and only the five stars falling as symbols for what could potentially be 1 mega spin.

When we look at NSYNC Pop realistically, we have to say that besides the theme, there isn't really any special. It'll undoubtedly become one of the year's most popular online slot games purely because of Justin and the boys, but there's a pretty standard free spins feature, and the extras are things you'd find in loads of other slot titles you can play here. Nevertheless, it is fun for the soundtrack, and obviously, wins can be rewarding, but it won't take long for most players to say "bye, bye, bye” and move onto a more rewarding release.
