Sherlock and Moriarty Wowpot Slots

This game has five reels and 20 paylines. Above the reels are numerous jackpots - one being the huge WowPot jackpot, along with a major jackpot, a minor jackpot, and a mini jackpot. The grid is played against the stone-paved streets of old London, with old-fashioned buildings that help serve as a time portal for players. The WowPot Jackpot itself is worth so much it's easy to overlook the major jackpot, which still pays out a luxurious amount!

With jackpot games, your bet range will matter more than usual. The chances of triggering the jackpot depend on the size of your bet. That being said, the larger your bet, the better your chances of hitting the jackpot. While you can still win the WowPot with a smaller stake, high rollers will have a better chance. You can bet anywhere from 0.10 to 100 per spin. The RTP for this game is 92.1% and the volatility is medium. The hit frequency for this slot is 27% so it's an active enough game to keep a player occupied. Like most games, there are lower symbols and higher-paying symbols. The lower symbols are the usual suspects - J, A, K, and Q pay out small prizes, while the character symbols will reward the higher pays. The character symbols help with the Sherlock theme embodied by this game. These symbols are policeman, Mrs. Hudson, Watson, and Holmes himself, and these characters pay out 6x to 10x the stake for a match of five. There is a wild symbol associated with this game, just as valuable as Mr. Holmes himself, which can also serve to substitute for other symbols to complete a win.

Features

While these features are all fine and dandy, it's no secret the WowPot is the highlight of this game. To trigger the jackpot, you need to collect magnifying glass progressive tokens. These symbols appear on reels 2, 3, and 4 during the base game. These symbols will be accumulated and tallied using the bar at the top of the screen. Filling the bar might trigger a spin of the jackpot wheel as well, which will award one of the four jackpots. This means you can win anywhere from 10 EUR to 2,000,000 EUR! These jackpots are progressive, so keep in mind the figures are just base values.

Now, the mystery symbol is the golden question mark, and if you land four or fewer of these mystery symbols, all of them will turn into the same regular pay symbol. If five or more mystery symbols land instead, you'll trigger the Mystery Respins Feature. During this feature, the mystery symbols will lock in place and the other reels will respin, potentially landing more mystery symbols or wilds, which become sticky and award another respin. Once no more special symbols land, the round ends and all mystery symbols turn into one pay symbol.

Moriarty is the scatter and three of him will award 10 free spins. You'll receive 2 additional free spins for each scatter beyond the triggering three. During free spins, a triple question mark feature symbol can appear, triggering modifiers like sticky wilds, a +1 multiplier, or extra free spins.
