Ali Babas Luck

When we’re talking about Fortuna’s favorites, there is one that will always come to mind first. That’s right! It’s a poor woodcutter who discovered thieves’ den and its secret. 

Ali Baba’s Luck is another video slot inspired by the tales from One Thousand and One Nights, brought by Max Win Gaming. 

The title comes with a commonly used 5x3 grid and 10 fixed paylines. Feature-wise, you can expect expanding symbols and Dream Spins feature. 

At first, it looks like a decent release, especially if we consider the maximum win of 5.000x the bet. 

Do you know the secret magical phrase? 

Is the Theme Interesting? 

It’s always nice to see any kind of screen adaptation of Arabic folk tales, and it’s even better if those are serving as an inspiration for a video slot. 

Ali Baba was the guy who discovered the magical phrase ‘Open Sesame’ and entered the thieves’ den full of unexpected riches. 

The release features comic book-styled graphics with Arabic objects and ornaments all over the place. 

The golden grid is filled with arabesque royal cards (10-A), rings, pots, Morgiana (Ali Baba’s slave-girl), and Ali Baba himself who is the most lucrative symbol in the game, offering up to 500x the bet for a combination of 5. 

Of course, as is the case with all Red Tiger Gaming releases, this one-armed can be played across all devices and platforms. 

What About the Betting Options?

Alibaba’s Luck is played on 5 reels, 3 rows, and 10 fixed paylines. To create a winning combo, you’ll need to land at least 3 matching symbols across a payline.

The minimum bet is set at 0.20 coins, while the most expensive spin costs 10 coins per spin. 

The title’s RTP of 95.89%is slightly below average, but the maximum win of 5.000x the bet will definitely compensate for it. 

What Special Features Can You Expect?

The Expanding Symbols feature represents the core of the base game. Whenever you score, a winning symbol will be transformed into a golden symbol and placed above the grid. If that golden symbol participates in a winning combo, it will expand to cover a whole reel. 

By landing at least 3 bonus symbols anywhere on the grid, you’ll trigger the Dream Spins feature. The game will take you to another screen where you’ll need to spin a wheel to determine the number of free games.

You can win up to 16 free spins and it’s important to realize that the feature can be re-triggered by landing additional scatters. 

Finally, golden symbols will be there too! Once a symbol has been transformed into an expanding symbol, it will stay on the grid for the duration of the feature. 

Not bad, right? 

What is Our Take?

Alibaba’s Luck is undoubtedly an extremely interesting release. Skeptics are likely to be bothered by the below-average RTP, but the title’s design, features and maximum available win of 5.000x the bet might convince them to give this slot a chance. 

Open Sesame!
