Theme of The Game
Top Gun is inspired by the movie with the same name. It aired for the first time in 1986 and it followed the adventures of a pilot called Maverick at the Top Gun school in Miramar, Florida.
Designed to teach F-14 Navy pilots to dogfight during the Cold War, this school became especially popular once the Top Gun movie came out. Tom Cruise was the star, though pilots nicknamed Goose or Iceman also were part of it. The slot machine offers you images of F-14 fighter jets and of many of the actors that played in Top Gun, but not with Tom Cruise.
Developer
Playtech is the company behind Top Gun, at least this version of the game, which was announced in November 2015.
They are one of the big names of the slot machine industry, with over 5,000 employees based in 14 countries and being listed at the Stock Exchange from London. They offer some of the most impressive slot machines that you will find anywhere these days.
How To Play It
Since this game has ways to win, you can expect to have to only decide on the line bet that you want to use, a fixed number of 25 coins being always part of the wager. The option to change the coin value is there, in the bottom left corner. The value of the total bet changes automatically. As for the Spin button, it’s big, yellow with red letters and you will find it on the other side of the list of options.
The ways to win system requires symbols to land on neighboring reels, starting from the 1st one. Since all possibilities are considered, the games claim to offer 243 ways to win instead of a number of fixed paylines.
The design uses photos of the actors, all of them dressed just like in the movie. You have Iceman, Goose, Charlie and the rest of the pilots and characters that were part of it, along with things like pilot jackets, sunglasses or F-14 jets.

Special Features
Some of the features you can expect here are quite nice and maybe even unique, while others are common, but not unwelcomed.
The wild symbols are no surprise when it comes to the way they work. You have Top Gun Logos which appear on the reels and, if they are on the right one, they can take part in a combo which needs a symbol there. Being part of ways to win, it’s quite easy for a wild to be of assistance.
The unusual part appears when the Dogfight Wilds feature triggers, at random. You see a fighter jet appear in front of the reels as they spin, attacking individual symbols and turning them into wilds. You can get as many as 15 wilds this way, which would cover all the reels with these symbols.
Another feature that promises to be a lot of fun is called Danger Zone Free Spins. They’re typical free spins mostly, but you get a better chance of triggering the Dogfight Wilds. You trigger them the same way as in other slots, with three scatter symbols. In this game, they have the image of the F-14 Tomcat and they have to appear on the 1st, 3rd and 5th reels.
Maximum Payouts
Payouts tend to be on the low side when the ways to win are used instead of paylines, but that’s only because they’re so much easier to get. In this case, a payout of 1,500 coins is the best possible prize you can expect from a single combo. Its value would be at most $15,000.
Summary
With some very interesting features, with a good design and one of the best choices of themes that a slot could have, Top Gun should be a lot of fun and will offer you a decent chance to get paid. If you’re really fond of the Maverick character, it will be a disappointment though.
