Carnival Queen

Though the visual look is not as impressive as you would expect from a slot with this title, the music and sound effects are great in the Carnival Queen slot from Thunderkick. The return to player seems quite nice and the gameplay itself doesn’t disappoint either. Check further details below.

Theme

The source material is obviously from Latin America, as that is where carnivals come from these days. The visual look is mostly centered around the different symbols, of which half are playing card ranks. The background image itself is a bit of a hit-and-miss and frankly looks more like a herd of zombies than people partying. Still, the music and sound effects more than makeup for this. Thunderkick clearly employs some very talented people in this area.

Betting Options and Functions

There are six reels and each of these has four symbol positions. The game utilizes the 4096 ways to win system, which means that the classic paylines do not apply. Instead, the symbols simply need to be in adjacent reels, with at least three symbols needed in order to claim a winning combination. The more symbols the more combinations.

Betting starts from 0.10 coins per spin, with several options even for those who are drowning in money. The returns start from 0.10 times your bet, but luckily quickly go up from there. Still, the maximum you will gain from a six symbol combination is 20 times your bet. Do remember though, in games with this many paylines the aim is to land as many winning combinations per round as possible.

Features

The avalanche feature is in play, which means that new symbols drop in to replace those that were part of a winning combination. At the same time, for each such win, the winning multiplier increases with one. This goes on as long as new combinations are formed.

Three scatters will reward the player with 12 bonus games, with each additional scatter adding four more spins to the total. During the feature, landing two scatters will award three more spins, and any scatter on top of that three more! The scatters are counted after the avalanche feature. On top of this, during the bonus game the win multiplier never resets!

Our Take

Thunderkick always offers quality gaming, and this title is no different. The only downside is the high volatility, but like always it is balanced with the possibility of massive wins. Besides the prizes, the bonus games are worth checking out, especially if you tend to have luck with scatters. And like we have mentioned a few times, the musical qualities are pure bliss as well. There’s no reason not to try the game!
