Charming Lady Luck Online Slot Review
As anyone who has ever gambled knows, you need a little bit of luck to beat the odds, so why not try a slot from 1X2 Gaming which is all about that very subject? This slot features a horse shoe, a golden coin, a ladybird and a four leaf clover, so if you do subscribe to the fact that any or all of these are actually lucky, this might be a slot where you feel you can’t lose! In fact, Lady Luck herself makes an appearance as well, so where can you go wrong? (Just don’t run into any black cats or walk under any ladders directly before playing – as this might even the luck ratio out a little bit…)
This is a very purple slot. The backdrop is a forest at night, the trees silhouetted in black against the purple sky, with silver stars flying from the sky. The slot logo sits in green above the slot, perhaps promising the luck of the Irish. This all might sound impressive, but graphically the slot falls a little short. The reels are mostly taken up by playing card symbols (there are actually six playing cards symbols and only four ‘relevant’ standard symbols which shows a lack of imagination here) and these and the other symbols are somewhat basic – with very little animation at all (winning symbols will simply expand and retract). The accompanying sound is a little flat as well – a very generic tune accompanying the slot. The feature of the game is the free spins round, which is activated by a scatter symbol.
Set up and Play for Charming Lady Luck Slot
This is a slot with 5 reels with 3 symbols showing on each reel, much like the majority of online slots. What sets it apart is the small number of win lines – just nine at this slot, which might appeal to a number of players due to the lower cost of each spin. You’ll win at this slot by landing consecutive symbols on a win line from left to right starting with the leftmost reel. You’ll need to land at least three of the playing card symbols in a row, but the four ‘luck’ symbols will see you win with just two in a row. These symbols also represent the highest paying in the game when landing 5 in a row, with pay-outs of 750x, 500x, 300x and 100x your coin amount for the 4 leaf clover, the butterfly, the gold coin and the horseshoe respectively.
This slot has an auto play option, which you’ll be able to set both manually by clicking the up/down arrows, or choosing one of the pre-selected amounts of 5, 10, 25, 50 or 100 games.
The wild in the game is Lady Luck, which will substitute for any other symbol apart from the scatters. An added bonus that comes with the wild is the fact that all the wins using this symbol are doubled, meaning Lady Luck can be hugely profitable.
The slot has one scatter symbol (in the main game), this being the free spins scatter (a crystal ball). This doesn’t work in quite the same way as a standard scatter symbol, as you’ll need to land it three or more times on a win line to activate the feature, as opposed to anywhere on the slot.
The slot has a green ‘love heart’ wild symbol which will substitute for any other symbol apart from the star and the free spins symbol.
Charming Lady Luck Free Games Feature
The number of free spins you receive at this slot is dependent on how many of the crystal ball symbol you land to activate the feature. Land just three and you’ve got 5 free spins, but land four or five and you’ll receive 15/25 free spins. During the free spins round another symbol is introduced – the Lamp. This is another scatter symbol which works in the same as the free spins scatter. Land this 2 or more times during any free spin and you’ll gain a win. If the symbol appears the maximum five times you’ll win 200x your coin amount.
Charming Lady Luck – Conclusion
This slot by 1x2 certainly isn’t one with a wow factor. There are no great features and you won’t have the chance of a big win, so there is nothing that really makes this slot stand out at all. The slot is also a little weak when it comes to the visuals and the sound – there are much better games out there, even using exactly the same ‘luck’ theme. What this slot does offer however is a very standard game with few interruptions where the pay-outs are very regular – which may appeal to new players getting used to online slots.
