About Fat Frankies
Fat Frankies, a video slot by Play’n GO, is the first game we’ve ever come across that takes place inside a cartoon food truck. It’s great to see developers thinking outside the box and coming up with original themes.
This five-reel, three-row slot with 243 ways to win has charm by the bucketload, with unique animated graphics and funny sound effects, like Frankie saying “Hey, what can I getcha?” if you don’t press the spin button for a long time. He also gets excited when you manage to activate one of the game’s four random bonus features - Burger Bonanza, Greasy Wilds, Flip The Tip, and Star Spins - by getting three scatter symbols. There’s even a short intro video to introduce you to what this slot is all about.
There are no fixed paylines in Fat Frankies. Instead, the game will give you a win simply for getting identical fast-food symbols on adjacent reels, starting with the first reel. Only the highest-winning combination pays per symbol combination.
The maximum prize in the game is 6,000x your bet.

Game features
When you get three food truck scatter symbols, you’ll activate one of four random bonus features, called Frankies Specials:
Burger Bonanza
You get a respin during which only burger symbols land on the reels. These are sticky symbols, meaning the ones you do get will stay on the reels. Every time you get more, you’ll get another re-spin up to 15 (in other words, every possible symbol on the grid). Every burger is worth a cash prize. This bonus round comes to an end when you don’t get a burger.
Greasy Wilds
With Greasy Wilds, you get one spin in which between one and five whole reels are covered in grease, turning them wild.
Flip The Tip
In the Flip The Tip round, you get three shots at flipping a coin into the Frankies tip jar. If the coin misses, you lose a life. If you get the coin in the jar, you gain a life. Each successful coin flip increases the value of the win:
- 1 coin: 5x your wager
- 2 coins: 10x your wager
- 3 coins: 20x your wager
- 4 coins: 100x your wager
- 5 coins: 250x your wager
- 6 coins: 500x your wager
- 7 coins: 1000x your wager
- 8 coins: 2500x your wager
The bonus round ends either when you run out of lives, or, ideally, if you win the maximum amount possible.
Star Spins
In Star Spins, you initially get 10 free spins. Then, for each additional star scatter you get, you’ll be rewarded with another two free spins and a multiplier. You can trigger a maximum of 20 free spins and a 6x multiplier in this round.
Symbols
The symbols in Fat Frankies consist of delicious-looking fast food items. The lowest-value symbols are different-colored milkshakes that also have playing card symbols on them, while the high-paying symbols are different foods: fries, taco, hotdog and cheeseburger. You might say that the higher the calories, the higher the win!
Winning combinations
To get a win in Fat Frankies, you need to get identical symbols on at least three reels, starting with the first and going left to right. Each symbol has a different value:
Blue and green milkshakes
The blue (spades) and green (clubs) milkshakes are the lowest-value symbols in the game and have the same value: 0.15x your bet for three, 0.3x for four, and 0.75x for five.
Purple and red milkshakes
The purple (hearts) and red (diamonds) shakes also share the same value: 0.15x for three, 0.6x for four, and 1.8x for five
Fries
The fries in Fat Frankies are worth 0.6x if you get three, 1.8x if you get four, and 3x if you get five.
Taco
The taco symbol pays out 0.75x, 1.5x and 3.75x for three, four and five symbols respectively.
Hotdog
The hotdog is worth 1.8x your bet if you get three, 1.8x if you get four, and 4.5x if you get five. Cheeseburger
The cheeseburger is the highest-value symbol in the game. Three burgers will award you with 3x your bet. Four will get you 6x. If five burger symbols land, your reward will be 15x your bet.
Fat Frankies slot verdict
While Fat Frankies could be described as a minimalist slot - its bonus features and how you trigger them are pretty straightforward - this is a really unique slot thanks to the work that the developers has put into the graphics and sound design. You’ll be hoping to land one of those bonuses just to see what animations they each come with. And because they’re random, each playthrough is different from the last.
All in all, Fat Frankies is yet another success for Play’n GO.
