Little Red Riding Hood Slot Machine
Red Rake Gaming have created a series of fantasy fairy tale themed slot machines that have proven to be a big hit, and the latest to add to their catalogue of over 70 slots is Little Red Riding Hood.
You must have heard of the popular tale of a little girl wearing a red cape, who ventures into the heart of the forest with a basket of food for her sick granny. When she arrives at her granny’s house, she opens the door to find that her granny has been eaten by a big bad wolf who is doing his best to trick the girl into being his next victim. May seem like scary stuff, but this fun-filled slot game is full of fun, excitement, wilds, scatters, multipliers and free spins. Plus, there is a 200x your stake jackpot to be won.
Spin the reels from a minimum of 0.10 or a maximum of 100.00 as you journey through the mystical land of Little Red Riding Hood.
Sweet Theme
The creators of the slot game have designed the reels to look like they are sitting in the middle of an enchanted forest. Either side of the reels are green leaves rustling in the breeze.
The reels are encased in wood and your paylines are highlighted to the left and right of the screen. Betting options are situated to the lower of the screen, along with the paytable, bet per line, total bet and last prize won. The top of the reels sits your balance and multiplier values; 2x, 3x and 4x.
Symbols that make up this game include; card values 10, J, Q, K and A plus basket of food, granny’s house, little red riding hood, the wolf disguised as the granny, the big bad wolf, axe-wielding man and a happy granny.
Big Bad Wins
There isn’t a life-changing jackpot on offer, but Little Red Riding Hood slot game does offer a 200x your stake non-progressive jackpot. High rollers who are betting the maximum 100.00 stake per spin will get a nice return on their investment, because that jackpot will turn into a payout of 20,000 for matching five of a kind of the granny house symbols.
Little Red Riding Hood and a happy granny offer a 150x multiplier for matching five of a kind.
Hidden Features
Normal wilds, wild multipliers, scatters and free spins can be triggered whilst playing the slot game, so it’s good to know what symbol to look out for.
There are two variations to the wilds on offer; firstly, the basket of food symbol is the wild multiplier symbol, by spinning in one symbol you will receive a 2x multiplier, two symbols awards a 3x multiplier and three symbols awards a 4x multiplier. Secondly, the normal wilds will substitute for all other symbols you will find on your reels, except the scatters – to help boost winning potential.
Scatter symbols are the Little Red Riding Hood symbols, three of these symbols anywhere on your reels will initiate the free spins bonus.
The free spins bonus awards 10 free spins and whilst you are playing out your free spins, you can collect various symbols to boost your free spins. Collect Little Red Riding Hood, the axe-wielding man and the happy granny to get as many free spins as you possibly can.
What We Think
When it comes to in-depth details, Little Red Riding Hood slot game boasts a return to player (RTP) percentage of 95.8%. We found the slot to be a low to medium variance slot game that will provide plenty of winning combinations during the base game. Volatility is low and may find you’re playing a while before you trigger the free spins bonus.
When we played, we found it hard to accumulate additional free spins because the special symbols rarely made an appearance, plus you are only promised a further 2 free spins by collecting 5 symbols – which is quite hard to do.
If you prefer to play slots fast, you can press the space bar to speed up the reels. The reels are designed to display a delayed reaction, so when they fall into place it will look almost as if they don’t know where to stop.
While we were playing the slot machine, we managed to spin in five of a kind regularly and there were plenty of wins on the reels to keep us playing for long periods of time. When we eventually triggered the free spins, we accumulated wins to the value of 100x our stake.
