you need 3 or more scatters to trigger the bonus round and like Jack Hammer you need at least 5 scatters to trigger it, that's why is hard to get them because most of the time you get 3 or 4 scatters and this causes a lot of excitement when 3 scatters appeared.

Believe it or not, although this game has a low payout I will keep playing the game just because it's kinda fun to play and very entertaining. Barber Shop is one of my favorite of Thunderkick games.

There are two ways to win on this game, play low with a large balance (more spins, longer gameplay) and play high with a more larger balance (apply only for high rollers).

There are a lot of Thunderkick games that I don't recommend and Barber Shop is not one of them.

I give this game an 8 stars rating.

Barber shop is created by fairly new kids on the block Thunderkick! It features 25 paylines at a cut price minimum cost of just 10p! I first played Barber Shop at Casumo and my view of it after 10 rounds was simply a poor copy of jack hammer...my opinion however completely altered when I played at Betsafe!

I was down to about £5 earlier this year and thought I would give it another chance! So glad I did! I had the balance to nearly £40 in about an hour mainly due to numerous good free shaves. Yes you heard correctly they are called free shaves on this game! Barber Shop features of course gents in a barber shop (what else!) When you line up 3 or more men or symbols on a line it re-spins until no more are added to the line (just like Jack Hammer 1 and 2). But this game is way more entertaining with nice ambiance backing music and the men are shaved clean when the line win stops haha!

Other lesser paying symbols include shaving tools, combs, shave foam. Top symbol 5 of a kind pays out 400 coins should you be very lucky this means top payout on 10p of £100 in the base game!!

Next I will talk about how to get onto the fantastic free shaves bonus round! Land 5 or more bonus barber signs on the reels for 10 free shaves land nearly full screen for nearly 30 free shaves! In the free shaves upon each win the multiplier increases up to x5 and stays at this level until you get a losing spin! This means a top jackpot at minimum bet in free spins a mouthwatering £500! and it can continue to for a very, very, very lucky player they could win close to £1000 at 10p bet! It would be highly unlikely but nice to know it is possible! When your free shaves run out you get an infinity spin (pun on infinity) this enables the slot to respin until a win hits (very useful indeed!)

Although the game does not feature a mountain of bonus games it is great value for money and can build a bankroll up if played correctly (sensible bet sizing).

I give Barber Shop by Thunderkick 9/10!! It is not perfect as it can run cold at times but it redeems itself when it pays out BIG!!

Pros

Symbols stay in same position until you get a losing spin.
Amazing free shaves with up to 5x multiplier (that can stick until you lose).
Infinity spin after free shaves are completed.
Nice paytable.
Great value for money play for 10p minimum and this still means 25 paylines!!
Looks attractive and is humorous to boot!

only took me one session to have me hooked on this Barber Shop game. It can be played at the lowest bet size and really offered me value for my money. In addition, the game is lots of fun and the potential to have a monster hit is present as well.

What else could a gambler basically want? The video slot Barber Ship simply has it all! And oh, the game does remind me of needing a shave. It been 10 days already but who’s counting eh lol. Barber Shop contains 5-reels, 3-rows and 25-paylines. If you’re low on funds at your favorite casino, then this game is a serious option.

How many other slots with 25-paylines let you play for a 10 cent bet per spin? Not many, I can assure you that and that’s why Barber Shop offers value for money.

I generally play this game on 50 cent bets. The symbols are decorated with all types of visitors with mustaches and bears, who you would catch in a Barber Shop and the used equipment like razors, shaving crème etc. Every time a winning combination appears on the reels, those symbols get sprayed with shaving crème and freeze up while a free re-spin follows.

As long the winning combinations consecutively come in, the free re-spins keep going until you fail to win. The best payout is a 5oak of the man with the orange beard (40x bet). If you get a whole screen full of that symbol, then that equals a payout of 1,000x bet.

So even during the base game there is lots of potential. I never won more than 130x bet size though. There are also bonus symbols appearing which freeze up as well if you get 3 or more to improve the current situation. You need at least 5 to win 10 free spins and get 2 extra spins for every additional symbol all the way up to 30 free spins.

During the free spins or free shaves like they call them, there is a multiplier in place which goes from 1x, 2x, 3x to 5x. So there you can even win 5,000x bet. My best win during the free shaves round was around 300x bet. What I also like is that at the end of the free shave session you get one “Inwinity Spin”, which means the reels going keep spinning until you have a win.

Overall this is a fantastic game which I warmly recommend for anyone who’s looking for a good time and a change of scenery.

It was very pleasant gaming session and I decided to offer free haircut here on forum and I accepted and then started playing this game. Unlike Afi, I didn't have much success nor balance like Afi had and its expected considering the fact that I deposited only few times minor amounts of 10 or 20 euros.

This is a 25 paylines slot and you can bet as low as 0.10 euro per spin. Sounds good ? Oh, yes, it does, anyone can afford it and if you wanna have some fun for as little as 10 euros deposit then what are you waiting for. If you wanna deposit in Casumo, I think in order to claim the bonus you must deposit 20 euros.
The highest paying symbol is the barber man, sweet guy with brown beard and he pays only 40 x your bet size.There is no wild symbol nor scatter symbol, and bonus symbol pays poorly as previously mentioned.

You can trigger 10 free spins by getting 5 bonus symbols and additional free spins can be won with each bonus symbol appearing on the reels up to 30 free spins. Free spins can be retriggered. This game comes with multiplier and so far I had no success nor I managed to wager my bonuses.

Multiplier in free spins goes up to 5 x .The max you can win is 40 x your bet size and max.bet is 200 euros, which is 8000 then. Still this paytable is very poor and not worth your money, I would suggest DOA even on min.bet of 0.09 rather then hunting in Barber Shop but surely, this slot is very fun.

But their games are very interesting and original.

This is probably the first slot game that I played with this theme. Also, interesting are the symbols that you have here. Symbols are persons who need a shave also shaving kit too that can be found in a Barber shop. This is one of the slot games that you can play for hours without getting bored.

For that are responsible the interesting features offered by Barber Shop game. The first is Re-spin feature. Re-spin is triggered by any pay-line win. All symbols that triggered the re-spin will be held in place while all other symbols spin again. Then there is the free spins feature. This feature is activated if you get at least 5 bonus symbols. Depending on the number of bonus symbols you can get from 10 to 30 free spins. For each re-spin in free spins, the multiplier increases one level, up to the max multiplier level of x 5.

I didn’t have the opportunity to play here so often, only a few times and I can’t boast with some decent wins. My biggest wins in this game were something bigger than 30 x bet but that does not mean that this game has the potential to pay a lot more. Evidence for that is Afi’s screenshots which you can see here at AskGamblers. What is even more interesting with this game is that you can play already with a bet of only 0.1 euro per spin. Although I do not have much experience with the Barber Shop game I like the originality in relation to the most of slot games that I've played so far. Therefore, I will give her a solid 8 out of 10 possible stars.

erything here is very clever. After winning animation I saw all characters after barber shop, hehe some of them are really funny. Very good idea and I never saw any other provider caring so much about such things.

Gameplay here is very simple and same as Jack Hammer and Jack Hammer 2 (I am saying about these games because I think everyone tried these Netent games). Every winning combination stay on reels and award respin, if it will continues - you will have another respin, and such until you will not have additional win.

At first look payouts can be called terrible, because most symbols even for 5 of a kind pays just couple of bets, but some really high paying and rare pay very good and solid, so just check paytable if you not sure about it.

Also there is special freespins feature. For 5 or more scatters you get freespins. For 5 you get 10 freespins and two more freespins for each one more scatter. So for full screen of bonus symbols you will be awarded with 30 freespins. But I am sure this will not happen to me, I am not so lucky. During freespins there is dynamic multiplier, up to x5 with each sticky win it goes higher.

I had good results in this game. My best was 350 bets freespins feature. Had a lot of good paying symbols with x3 multiplier, it sucks that it does not go to x5, I pray for it but it simple does not give it. I had also very bad features in this slot, which paid me less than 10 bets. So you can expect everything, from very bad to very good. I am also had a lot of about 30-50 bets wins during normal play, but never more than 100 bets, it is seems too hard for me.

I rate this game with 9 stars.

I like it.

I played it on minimum bet. The graphics is good, so as the sounds. When I played it, I had a lot of spins which paid very poor. Sometimes I got higher payout symbols which returned me nice wins. I think this game could be really compared to Jack Hammber even at payout table. For free spins you must have 5 bonus symbols.

I tried to get those 5 symbols, but I guess i had no luck at them that session, because I couldn't trigger the feature. I like multiplier at free games feature. You would get them up to x5. If you hit some high payout symbols during free games, you can expect big win. At Thunderkick games I like that after feature finish you get inwinity spin. The game will continue to spinning until a win combination on the reels. I had this spin at a few games, but it paid me poor. You need to have a lot of luck to hit something in the last spin, but it is good anyway because it give you another chance at the end of the feature.

I think I will play this game sometimes even in the future. Sometimes I hate it, it makes me angry when I see how poorly pays at main game for a few spins. But still I could say that i like it more than Jack Hammer from NetEnt. I don't know why, maybe because it is more funny with those symbols.

I really like this game because even though it has 5 reels and 25 paylines, the minimum bets you can place are 0.10€ per spin and that's really low.

As a bonus round it has free spins, which are triggered by 5 or more bonus rounds.For five symbols you’ll play 10 free spins, but fer every extra bonus symbol you’ll get 2 additional spins up to 30, I haven’t got more than 18 spins I think. It may sound hard to trigger them, but it's not that hard because of the great respin feature.

Whenever you have a payline win or 3 or more bonus symbols, they will be held you'll get a respin and this feature continues until there's no new win. I think it's a really exciting feature, it comes up really often and you can get nice winnings from it. I really like the fact that the respins feature is both on base game and free round, but I really love the free rounds for two reasons. First, every time a new respin comes, there's an increasing multiplier that goes up from 1x to even 5x multiplier. Second reason is when all the free spins have ended, you'll have an infinity spin- you will spin until you win. There have been times when I've played around 10 spins with infinity spin, just because they all were empty.

I adore this game for many reasons but payouts aren't one of them. I have to say that with this game I have more luck than with other Thunderkick slots, however, I've never got winnings that have been over 100x bet. I prefer to play tis game with 0.20€ bets because then I don't end up loosing much credits, if the game goes dry. In the main game it's hard to get bigger winnings than 20x bet, but I think some decent winnings can be won in free spins, thanks to multipliers and respins. Hopefully I will explore that someday myself, as I am usually stuck with 50x bet wins.

Overall I think this is a game that will put a smile on your face and design is really great. I wouldn't expect mega wins here, but it is definitely worth trying.

It's a 15 reel type game meaning all fifteen positions on the screen can show the same symbol on any single spin, giving the tantalising possibility of a full screen of the same symbol. Your chances of such a hit are enhanced by the free respins that are awarded anytime a winning combination lands on the screen - winning symbols are locked in place and the remaining positions will re-spin for the chance to add further or improved winning paylines to your total. It's a style of game made popular by the Jack Hammer games, but the formula has been tweaked and refined a little since that game was released and this game would be a little more enjoyable in my opinion provided the paytable stacks up.

Well, the top five of a kind symbol combination pays out 40x your stake and with 25 paylines that makes the top win 1000x your bet, just like Jack Hammer. That made me wonder if this game was infact a straight up clone, but infact there is an additional multiplier awarded for consecutive respins during the bonus mode which actually gives this game a maximum possible win of 5000x your stake - a huge plus I would say!

I do often find this type of game works better with more paylines, but that didn't seem to be an issue in Barber Shop - instead, I did find that many respins would result in no additional symbols dropping into place. It definitely seems to occur much less often than in the Jack Hammer games although conversely I did find that the bonus symbols feel as if they drop a little more regularly and that was backed up by the fact that almost every time I got three bonus symbols onscreen the respin would land an extra one to give me the free spin feature. It's hard to say if my experience is truly representative as my sample size is only a thousand spins or so.

am amazed that they didn't sued by PETA yet, just kidding. The strangest thing about this game is these two words : barber, shop. Most people go to a barber shop to cut their hair but this particular barber shop only cuts mustache and beard.

The gameplay of this game is very similar with NetEnt's Jack Hammer, re-spin(s) feature is triggered when a winning spins is won. Each winning re-spin will add another re-spin. At first, this is an addicted feature. These kinda feature is added to a lot of NetEnt games. Jack Hammer series, Reel Rush, When Pigs Fly, Gonzo's Quest etc.

I have played this game a lot on the day it was released and mainly it was at Casumo because Casumo was one of the first casinos that offers Thunderkick's games. Actually, when I visit Casumo, the very best thing in my mind was a Thunderkick game, it's very odd and I never had anything like this on other casinos. Is it good? I think so because I visit their website quite a lot.

Barber Shop doesn't pay as much as Fruit Warp but it has the same fun-factor. Patience is required playing this game because the bonus round is not that easy to trigger and when it triggered, you will never awarded with 0 win because the last free spin is a sure win spin, that means, it will kept spinning till it hits a winning spin.

Honestly, I never hit the super mega win-win, keep in mind that I've played the games a lot and never hit over 200x bet. It might be just bad luck. I know it's possible because I thought the same about Fruit Warp and there are plenty players saying otherwise and I believe them (because of winning screenshots). Will I ever hit the big one? I guess there's only one way to find out.

Many players complained about the low payouts from the game, but I myself found it acceptable, only because I had managed to get some nice wins from it. And so, with Barber Shop Uncut, I was expecting a similar game play from it, albeit some changes made to its paytable, but graphics and presentation wise, it looks identical to the original.

The blonde-moustached guy is now the highest paying symbol, replacing the bearded man, but the win value has been greatly reduced from 40x the total bet to only 15x now. All the other symbol values have been reduced as well, making this new paytable a very low one indeed. Argh! I hate it when things have been made no better than the original. If the 40 paylines of Barber Shop Uncut were supposed to cover back for the symbols value reduction, then this has not materialised at all in the many games that I have played so far. The payouts in the base game were simply way too low for anyone's liking, and the 40 paylines just did not deliver the goods. I found this very disturbing and very disappointing indeed!

What is even worse, the Free Spins game, activated by getting 5 Bonus symbols anywhere on the reels, now pays a flat 3x for all wins from the 10 free spins awarded, as compared to the variable 1x - 5x in the original game. Whilst bigger wins could be achieved with the 5x multiplier, the 3x simply failed to provide any good decent payouts. After playing more than 40 Free Spins games, the best win that I could get was a miserable 147x my total bet amount. My best win from the old game was 557x, so imagine the great difference in the winning potentials between the two games. What Thunderkick has done to Barber Shop Uncut is similar to what most other game providers have done to their games too - making the payouts much lower and smaller, for better revenue. Good for game providers, horrible for players!

Basically the only part most unpleasant are the somewhat small amounts paid. Having “5 of a kind” for some symbols of the game the slot pays less than the bet. But still one must recognize that because of the rules of the game “5 of a kind” combinations are common here.

I must say that ValDes is right, this game has a low payout, Jack Hammer pays a lot more but it is possible to win big with a little bit luck (okay, a lot of luck).
Other than that I find this game great!

Cons

Can go on cold runs at times.
Can be frustrating when your re-spins end!
Is so fun to play it has that DOA effect that you just can't leave without getting a win out!

The paytable distribution is mainly centered on a particular few symbols. Hence the big payouts for the top symbols and somewhat disappointing payouts for the lowest symbols.

Payouts for most symbols are really low. It is of course compensated by good paying, but still.

Thunderkick's games have never been of the high volatility or high variance kind, except perhaps for Birds On A Wire, but personally, I could still accept the changes made to Barber Shop Uncut if the game could play and pay better than what it is doing now. I was totally disappointed with it, and playing the game on many separate occasions only got me infuriated, without getting any sort of satisfaction at all! A very poor sequel to an otherwise fairly good game!
