Jazz Time is a 5-reel game, and to view the pay table you must click on the “Pay Table” button located next to the red “Cash Out” button on the lower left side of the machine. It may be played in denominations of $.01, $.05, $.25, $.50, $1, and $5.

To play, put money in the machine by clicking on the chips in the lower right corner and press “Bet Max.” This will play the maximum bet (9 paylines and 45 coins), giving you the maximum chance to win and automatically spins the reels. If you’d like to play fewer lines or fewer coins per line, just select the lines you want by using the “Select Lines” and “Bet One” buttons. When you have the bet you’d like, just press “Spin,” and wait for a win.

Win by lining up instrument icons on any of the nine pay lines. Receive three pieces of a drum (a set of drumsticks, a snare, and a hi-hat) and watch them combine to give you a bonus win! Get three grand piano icons anywhere on your screen and enter the jam session bonus round, where you can get a jam session with all 4 instruments playing in harmony. Click on any instrument (Bass, Piano, Trumpet and Guitar). You win the coins for each instrument that plays the proper tune in harmony with the bass line rift. Once you miss, the bonus game is over and you keep the bonus that you have won thus far. The amount you win is dependent on the total amount of coins you have played, so the more coins you bet, the more you can win.

All of the pays, with the exception of the bonus game winners, are played from left to right. That means that you win when you line up the icons starting from the leftmost wheel. To see what each combination pays, just click on the “Pay Table” button.

Jazz Time may also be configured as a local progressive game, where a Bet Max (maximum bet) wager and hitting five “Microphones” on the pay line wins you the local progressive jackpot total, which appears just above the reels.
