Mysteries of Notre Dames Slots
There's something lurking up in the spires of the Notre Dame cathedral and the reward for catching it is a 1,250,000-credit jackpot!
This Parisian slot machine by Playson software has a fantastical Gothic theme full of myth and legend, appealing to spinners who like themselves some historical action as well as those who have a keen interest in tall tales of dragons and unicorns. The Mysteries of Notre Dame slot machine has 5 reels and 20 paylines, making it a fairly standard video slot on the surface. However, the game features a special symbol drop feature with culminating multipliers to potentially reward some big prizes.
Romance And Heroism
The overall visuals of this game are very compelling, using a mixture of dark and mysterious blue with the warm and inviting orange colour of candlelight. And with some wistful organ music, the game offers a historically themed slot that whisks players away from their present situations into a long-ago time of romance and heroism.
The Notre Dame de Paris is one of the most famous cathedrals in the world, and it is the iconic playground of Victor Hugo's hunchback, Quasimodo. The game takes place within the church and the reels themselves are framed and presented as stained glass window. As such, the reel symbols are incredibly charming and beautiful to behold, showing an array of enchanting colours and intricate detailed depictions of mediaeval characters from myth and legend. There is a knight on horseback, a rampant unicorn, and a ferocious dragon. There is also a ruby encrusted goblet and a regal crowned helmet – both of which bestow some special gameplay features. This game might not follow the traditional mediaeval theme in games such as Lancelot, but we like the slightly unique changes.
Symbol Drop
This game's special “symbol drop” feature is brought into play throughout all of the main game. Essentially, whenever a series of matched symbols appear on any of the active paylines, they will pay their respective prizes and then shatter and disappear, allowing more icons to fall into the empty spaces. This could potentially reward yet another winning combination and every time that this happens in succession, the multiplier value that can be seen above the reels will increase in size up to a maximum of 5x.
Rich In History, Rich In Payouts
So, with one spin, you could end up landing a lot of prize money – if you're lucky enough to rack up a 5x multiplier from the symbol drop gameplay element. All standard wins, however, are paid by a line bet multiplier whenever the reels line up from left to right starting from the first reel. You can see all of the winning combinations and their respective rewards in the table below:
So, the biggest win available is a somewhat small line bet multiplier worth 2,500x. However, this can be turned into a 1,250,000 credit win thanks to some very large wagering options which range from as little as 1 credit per line to 500. Punters can also choose to play with a number of different paylines such as: 1, 3, 5, 9, 13, 15 and 20.
Ring The Bonus Bells
Also, keep in mind that each consecutive win with the symbol drop feature will boost your wins with a growing multiplier. And you can get your hands on some even bigger multipliers thanks to this slot machine's free spins feature. If players find three or of the game's scatter symbols – depicted by the jewel encrusted goblet – then they will activate 10 free spins and the normal multiplier scale will triple in size. So, instead of offering 1x, 2x, 3x, and 5x after each successful symbol drop, the free spins will offer 3x, 6x, 9x, and 15x respectively.
This game also has a very handy wild symbol to help players complete winning lines. The golden helmet icon effectively substitutes for all ordinary paying symbols to make winning combinations. Plus, this icon will often trigger more than one line at once, causing even more reel positions to drop and give a better chance of a consecutive win.
Marvellous Slot Machine
The Mysteries of Notre Dame slot machine is full of magical elements thanks to its interesting symbol drop gameplay and rewarding multipliers. What's more, the game is visually on point with a beautiful set of symbols that are represented as parts of the stained-glass window that makes the real Notre Dame such a marvel of Gothic Architecture. It's just a shame that the aim of the game is to smash the windows to unleash more wins!
