Rags to Witches is Betsoft’s contribution to Halloween, their version of a scary-looking slot machine. They didn’t really go all the way into the scary mode, it seems that funny/cartoon-style slots do better, even as they use images of witches, skulls, and black cats.
You’re getting 30 paylines from its 5 reels. With the right combinations, and applying up to 30x multipliers during free spins, it seems possible to get paid up to 15,000x in a single spin. Add the slot’s progressive jackpots, and it gets even better. Besides those free spins, there are also wilds and a random bonus game that triggers the progressive prizes.
Betting and Prizes
You’re spending at least $0.30 for one round, but you can go a lot higher from there. Bets of up to $120 are available for players to use.
The rewards appear to be pretty good. A screen covered with top symbols could pay only 500x the stake, but as the free spins bring with them certain multipliers, it looks like up to 15,000x could be paid inside (a cap on winnings may be in place though).
I appreciated the presence of its progressive jackpots, with the Mega version being the best one (5-6 figures range). Major, Minor, and Mini Jackpots are also available.
Rags to Witches Game Features
The Pumpkin Wild is going to land on reels 2, 3, or 4. It’s a substitute from there, so it can contribute to all winning combinations formed through its lines.
The regular side of the game has free spins as its main feature. It requires 5 to 7 scatter symbols in view, and you receive 10 free spins. You also get a prize of 2x to 12x the stake, for 4 to 7 scatters. Depending on the number of triggering scatters, there will be an increasing multiplier which goes up from 1x to 10x, from 2x to 20x, or from 3x to 30x. There is no way to get the free spins retriggered.
The progressive jackpot triggers through a bonus game, which is random, and only available during paid spins. The higher the bet, the better the odds of getting the feature. It could pay one of the smaller progressive jackpots, or it could even be the Mega Jackpot.
Theme & Design
They wanted a scary theme for Halloween, but thanks to the cartoon-style graphics it’s not looking that dangerous. The witch is the main symbol, followed by a Skull, Bat, Black Cat, Candy, Candles, and five Royals from 10 to A, all made out of bones.
Conclusion
Rags to Witches demo looks as good as any other Betsoft slot release, and for those looking to play something on Halloween, it’s a fine option. The progressive jackpots add to that appeal, though the slot pays well on its own.
It is impossible to guarantee victory. But you can maximize your chances: check the RTP level in your casino, get bonuses, play at stakes you can afford.
