Sherlock Holmes Slot

Intro

As you spin the reels of this 5 reel 25 line video slot, you’ll notice it is jam-packed with both suspense and fun. With coin values placed between 0.01 - 5.00, with the maximum coin per line being 1 and a top multiplying award of 4,000x, as well as an excellent Victorian detective theme and an array of multipliers and scatters, this game offers something special for both wannabe sleuths and avid gamers alike!

Review

In the slot you appear to take the role of Watson, Sherlock Holmes’ assistant, as when you win prizes Holmes utters “well done Watson”. Holmes spouts out a variety of phrases that really compliment the game and add a whole other level of interaction, even if some of them are particularly amusing for the wrong reasons, such as when you reveal a Holmes scatter, he shouts “Aha!” in a way that sounds more Alan Partridge than Sherlock Holmes. Not too sure if Sir Arthur Conan Doyle would be impressed! More importantly though, uncovering 5 of these scatters can win you a maximum of 75x your total bet, which certainly deserves a “well done”! You should also keep an eye out for Sherlock’s trusty hat, as 2, 3, 4 or 5 of these can earn you a line multiplier of 5, 100, 500 or 4000 respectively! The slot features a wild symbol as well that can substitute itself for any symbol other than the scatter. If this wasn’t enough, the game also features a randomly dropped progressive jackpot, meaning that you could begin winning amazing prizes from your first spin.

The game’s design is where this slot really comes into its own though, with RTG really pulling out all the stops to create an authentic Sherlock Holmes’ slots experience. The background of the slot is vivid and features incredibly detailed graphics, such as the musty bookshelf and there’s even an open newspaper on Sherlock’s desk...exactly how you would imagine Holmes’ ‘Study’ to be. The games soundtrack is also as interesting, featuring music specially composed for the slot in a very British sound which even encapsulates what can be assumed as the sound of Big Ben adds a whole new level of depth to an already impressive slots machine.

Whether you’re more interested in solving mysteries and taking on the role of Holmes’ trusted assistant, Watson in this gripping slot, or perhaps you just want to get down to hunting some serious prizes rather than hunting for professor Moriarty, then make sure to start playing the Sherlock Holmes video slot exclusively on RTG casinos, as this slot offers the best of both worlds.

Progressive Jackpot

Progressive jackpots are a common feature in RTG slots, but this doesn’t make them any less interesting or profitable. To the left of the screen you can locate the ticker, which is constantly going up and as it’s dropped randomly, all you have to do is sit back and play the game and hopefully the massive jackpot will be dropped right into your account regardless of whether you win or lose upon a spin.

Wild Symbol

The wild symbol, that is characterised as Sherlock’s pocket watch is an incredibly useful symbol to have appear on the reels. Although it can’t substitute itself for the scatter, the wild symbol can substitute itself for any other symbol on the reels and as RTG are so generous that the wild seems to appear almost every spin, you really do have the opportunity to win on every spin.

Scatter Symbol

The Sherlock Holmes symbol is the scatter and if this symbol appears anywhere on the reels you have the chance to win some impressive prizes. Dropping 3, 4 or 5 of this symbol across the reels in any positions will multiply your total bet by 2, 10 or 75 times respectively, which are incredible multipliers for an equally incredible slots machine. Not only this, but spinning 3 or more of the scatter symbol will trigger the free spins round where you can earn up to 15 free spins!

Free Spins

Spinning 3, 4 or 5 scatters will automatically trigger the free spins round and depending on the amount of scatters you reveal, you can earn 5, 10 and 15 free spins respectively. During the free spins round you also have the opportunity to earn up to 5 more free spins, and any prizes earned during this amazing round are tripled! The free spins round is complimented not only by the plethora of prizes you can win, but also the change in soundtrack and background of the reels. As soon as you trigger the free spins you are transported to a Victorian London street (perhaps even Baker Street) and the added sense of mystery through the new soundtrack really adds to this excellent gaming experience.
