Rabbit Hole Riches

Introduction Rabbit Hole Riches Slot

Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, the classic story by Lewis Carrol, continues to be an irresistible theme for slot developers as it frequently returns to the reels and industry. This time it is Play’N’Go who have decided to give it a whirl and delve into the magic of Wonderland; that’s why they have decided to base their new slot Rabbit Hole Riches in the bizarre and complex world of Wonderland. We rarely see Alice in these Wonderland-infused slots, and this is no except, with the main character being the flustered ‘late’ rabbit, accompanied on the reels by the Red Queen of Hearts and her soldier minions.

There are four additional bonus games for the player to sink their teeth into, across 3 reels and 3 rows, which gives the player only 5 active lines to win over. The background of the slot is the Red Queen’s Kingdom adorned with hearts and her spired castle ominously perched on the horizon. Play’N’Go have decided to take the darker approach to Wonderland, taking inspiration from Tim Burton’s style and giving us murky tones, cracked characters and gnarled trees – the suspense and sinister-feel add additional atmosphere to the slot to really allow the player to be embraced into it.

Bet Strategy

Rabbit Hole Riches can be played on any device, making it accessible to all players who wish to play. That being said, the betting range also allows all players ample chance to play starting at 10p and increasing up to a maximum of £100 per spin.
The RTP varies depending on the version that you play, so make sure you get the default, as this gives you the RTP of 96.23%. The volatility also is not as high as it usually is when we speak about Play’N’Go slots, being rated medium, or 6 out of 10 for those who prefer a numerical reference.

Symbols

Because of the small reel layout, combinations of three of a kind are the only ones possible, and these must be formed over the slot’s 5 fixed pay lines. The symbols are divided into two groups for the player to spin with. The lower paying group is made up on the Red Queen’s Army, which consists of hearts, diamonds, spades, and clubs. The higher paying icons on the reels include magic trees, caterpillars, the Mad Hatter, and the Red Queen herself. These pay between 2 times and 8 times the stake when landing three on a line.

The standard wild is worth more than this, giving the player 20 times the stake for three on any pay line. It can also replace any pay symbol to form a winner. In addition to this wild four others can appear during the features and these are discussed further below.

Features

For such a small game with only 3 reels and 3 rows, Play’N’Go have managed to pack plenty of extras into this tiny slot. There are a total of five, with one being a minor rabbit game, and the other four being free spins. During the base game, keep an eye out for the small pocket watch which lands over the regular symbols. Landing three will trigger the Rabbit Hole Bonus. Helping the players trigger the bonus is the Rabbit Reward feature which sees a rabbit appearing on any base spin and tossing two scatters onto the reels. The third reel may or may not throw up a third and trigger the bonus.
If it does, you move to another screen where the rabbit has four holes which he will randomly choose to determine a feature for you.

The Green rabbit hole launches the Teacup Party Pick Bonus. This begins at 1 free spin and has only the higher paying symbols on the reels. When the spin has completed, players are then given the choice of teacups that are situated below the reels. The teacup will reveal a high pay symbol and for every instance of that on the reels, the player will receive between 2 and 8 times the stake. Either ‘continue’ or ‘collect’ will appear on the reels, giving the player the chance to continue picking teacups or collect their prize.
The Blue rabbit hoel sends players to the Cheshire Cat Respins. This feature starts with one respin where the Cheshire Cat wild comes into play at a size of 1x3. The first spin is guaranteed to win, which awards another respin. These respins continue until no new winning combinations have landed.

The next one is the yellow rabbit hole, which takes the player to the third bonus – the Tower Power bonus. In this feature, the player gets 7 free spins where the Red and White Tower Wilds are active. Both tower wilds are stacked, which means they cover the full reels and replace the standard wild. At the beginning, you must choose to size with Red or White Tower. From then on, each time your chosen tower lands, you score a point for each of the positions the wild is covering (1-3). At the end, if your tower scores the most, the total winnings from the round are doubled. If the round ends in a draw instead, 7 more free spins are awarded to settle the score. There are no limits to how many times the feature can be retriggered in a single sitting.

Finally the red rabbit hole leads the player to the Queen’s Army Free Spins. This is the most lucrative free spin of the four given to the player. In the feature, the Queen Wild icon is used – the only other symbols are the low paying Queen’s Army: spades, clubs, hearts, and diamonds. The game uses a win multiplier which increases by +1 every time there is a pay line win. If three scatters land during this feature, three spins additionally are added to the remaining amount. A further thing to note is that there is no limit on how higher the multipliers can climb or the number of free spins that you can obtain.

Conclusion

A quirky game, perfect for the players of today, Rabbit Hole Riches offers up to 5,000 times the stake when landing some of the big multipliers. There are more positives compared to negatives for this new game by Play’N’Go and we highly recommend you give it a spin if you fancy some big wins!
The slot is not necessarily geared towards hardcore players, with a medium volatility, however the gameplay is great all-round, with perfect presentation and interesting design.
