Twisted Fairytales Slot Machine Review
The fairytales that you grew up with have excellent potential as slot machine stories, and there have been several instances where developers chose this type of theme for their games. It’s what Parlay Games chose to do with Twisted Fairytales, a game that incorporates well-known and beloved characters from several childhood stories.
A game with good potential and a mix of features that should make people stick around, Twisted Fairytales offers 5 reels with 20 active lines on them. Besides the regular wins, which appear to go as high as 5,000x the stake, you also have a random chance at triggering a progressive jackpot. Its RTP has a very big range, so it’s not very clear where the average is. As for the big features that have been incorporated, these give you expanding wilds, scatters, a bonus game, and multipliers.
Betting and Prizes
The bottom row is filled with betting options that you can play around with. You have up to 20 lines active, a maximum of 5 coins for each one, along with coin denominations of up to $1. The least you can spend per spin is $0.20, while the highest bet is $100.
Twisted Fairytales pays very well even during its regular spins, with up to 250x the stake offered for its best combinations. The potential there appears to reach 5,000x the stake, but the new game can go further with the help of multipliers which will reach 5x. The exposure of the game is not likely to be that high, but the potential is there for some decent rewards.
Another payout that can be triggered is a progressive jackpot, which is offered to a random player, with no connection with what’s going on inside.
Twisted Fairytales Game Features
Whenever winning combinations are formed in this game, a multiplier will go up by 1x. The multiplier value then applies to the wins that come in the next spin, if any combinations form. The highest multiplier possible, once you get through several winning spins, is 5x. Losing spins will reset multipliers back to 1x.
As for the regular feature symbols, I’m certain that you will appreciate the Treasure Chest Wild. It’s an expanding symbol, which may be used to help create combinations with symbols of all types. Scatters are not included though.
The game’s only scattered is going to have the image of a bag filled with gold nuggets. It’s marked with a Bonus logo, and by landing 3 to 5 times, it triggers its feature. This is a bonus game, a Pick Me style feature that allows you to make selections, and then gets you paid accordingly. The choice here is between five potions, and you have to make three selections.
If you’ve played Parlay slots in the past, these features might feel familiar. There are several clones available from them, each one with a different theme, but with identical features/RTP/payouts. Pick the one whose story resonates best with you.
Theme & Design
Twisted Fairytales is making good on the promise from its title, and delivers fairytale-based characters, mostly evil/gruesome-looking ones. It’s not a design for children, that much is for sure. Among the symbols shown on the reels, you will find poisoned apples, rats, magic mirrors, gingerbread men which got bitten, cauldrons with potions, a goose with a broken golden egg, Rapunzel’s hair being cut, three little pigs with blood around their mouths, a bear with blood on its nose, and Cinderella’s glass slipper with blood on it.
Conclusion
Twisted Fairytales brings fairytales into the horror genre, and does a pretty good job at sending that point across. It’s a good mix of features and excellent rewards, but with an RTP that doesn’t look appetizing.
