We are taking you to Las Vegas with Playtech’s Casino Charms. You will feel like you are sitting in a room filled with one-armed bandits thanks to the bright neon lights and the symbols that populate the reels of the 2019 release. Playable from $0.20 per spin, Casino Charms features 6 reels with a bit peculiar 3-4-5-6-7-7 reel grid and benefits from 80 fixed paylines. There are a few interesting and rewarding features on the offer including Roxy Respins, Casino Charms Bonus, which offers free spins with stacked Wilds, and Mega Spins.
Even though the reel grid is a bit strange, the rules of the game are quite common and are very similar to those you have on slot machines in land-based casinos. There are 80 paylines on the offer paying left to right starting from the far left reel. You need three symbols of a kind to get paid. The Girl is the only symbol that will pay even for two of a kind. The betting range is pretty wide and will satisfy the appetites of both penny punters and high rollers. Like in most other Playtech titles, the Autoplay option offers up to 100 automatic spins and the Turbo mode that can speed the reels up a bit.
When it comes to the symbols that populate the reels, gamers will come across plenty of familiar icons that can be found in old-school slot machines including Diamonds, Lucky Sevens, Dice, Chips, Poker Cards, Bar symbols and card suits acting as low-paying symbols. There is the Girl, probably Roxy, which is the highest-paying regular symbol, and Wild that can substitute for all other symbols but the Wheel Scatter, which triggers the Casino Charms Bonus.
Land the Girl on the reel 1 fully stacked and you will trigger the Roxy Respins feature. Two respins are waiting for you, while all Girl and Wild symbols are held on their positions for bigger wins. Land three Wheel Scatters on the reels 1, 2 and 3 and you will trigger Casino Charms Bonus. Spin the Wheel to determine whether you will get 10, 12, 15or 25 free spins, 10 or 15 freebies with Wild reels on the reels 5 and 6 or access to the Mega Respin feature, where you can get from 3 to 8 respins with Wilds and Girl symbols locked in their positions. Remember the Roxy Respins feature is triggered more easily during free spins than during the base game. Also, it is important to say that the Free Spins feature can be retriggered an unlimited number of times.
Even though the Playtech title might seem as an old-school slot machine at first glance, it is actually a perfect combination of a slot machine and a modern video slot. The visuals are pretty retro, while the special features incorporated are quite up-to-date. All of the social features will help gamers land big wins, even though it will take you a while before you manage to trigger them. The wide betting range will definitely attract both high rollers and penny punters, and there is something for both action junkies and fans of traditional slot machines.
