Rabbit Royale Slot Review
“Who owns this carrot? Who has the right to tell me if I can have this carrot or not? Do you really think some barbed wire, traps, or poison will keep us out? You could have taken the nice route, now you’ll have to stare down the barrel of my flamethrower!” 🪤
When the intro to your next game opens like this, you know it’s gonna be a goodie! Never one to shy away from delivering incredible narratives and graphics, ELK Studios has come up with Rabbit Royale slot, and I can’t wait to sink my teeth into it.
Well, what are we waiting for? Let’s hop on down this rabbit hole! 🥕
Gameplay
Easter, Saint Patrick’s Day, Christmas – at these times of the year, we get bombarded with games that all use the same theme.
So, it’s a breath of fresh air when an ELK Studios offering comes your way coz you know they’re going to go be a doozy. And they haven’t disappointed this time either – rather than a fluffy Easter bunny, they’ve gone a whole different route here.
Complimenting the visual feast are the sound effects of farm animals, radio commentary (remember those?), and voiceovers that add to the immersive sensory experience. I’m already loving this.
The 5x5-reel grid is narrow, so on a desktop device you’ll be treated to all of the detail the studio has packed into the background design.
But, as you’d imagine from my description, the game’s intention is to be enjoyed on a mobile phone in portrait mode. And it’s simply one of the best – if not my all-time favorite – mobile experiences I’ve had in recent times.
Let’s get to the stats real quick so we can move on to the features:
- PaylinesPaylines are preset lines that run across the reels, and when you land matching symbols on them, that will result in a payout. The more paylines, the more ways you can win, but also the higher your bet per spin.: 259 ways to win
-
RTPRTP stands for “Return to Player.” The RTP describes the total bet amount that a game returns to players over millions of spins, and that figure is represented by a percentage. Table games, such as Roulette, typically have higher RTPs than many slots.
RTP needs to be considered in conjunction with a game’s volatility rate.: 94% - Max Win: €150,000
- Medium/high volatility rate
OK, last thing – symbols. If a Wild contributes to a win, it’ll peel away to reveal a Carrot symbol (I’ll explain why this happens and the implications in a sec). Wilds replace all symbols other than Bonus symbols, Rabbits, and Carrots.
Features
RABBIT RE-SPINS:
Carrots are money symbols, so be on the lookout for these. If Rabbits face off against each other, each Rabbit will collect each Carrot’s monetary value.
Carrot collecting triggers a re-spin in both the base game and during the Free Spins round. You’ll be able to rack up endless re-spins for long as Carrot collecting takes place.
SUPER COLLECT:
Rabbits that find themselves adjacent to each other will face off and collect from each other, and you can have up to 5 Rabbits on the grid simultaneously.
FREE SPINS:
This round is triggered when you land 3 or more Bonus symbols, for which you’ll get 3 spins and a Sticky Rabbit. Eeeuw. You’ll get an extra spin and 2 more Rabbits if you land 4 Bonus symbols, and 5 spins and 3 Rabbits for 5 Bonus symbols.
Rabbits already on the grid in the base game will be carried over – and that’s in addition to the Rabbits you get as a result of the Bonuses you’ve landed.
All Rabbits are sticky during the Free Spins feature. Now, by this I mean that they won’t be removed until the feature ends, but they are free to move around the reels.
You can re-trigger Free Spins and Rabbits in the same way as you did initially – in other words 3 more Bonus symbols will gift you 3 spins and a Rabbit.
X-ITER:
No ELK Studios game would be complete without the X-iter Bonus Buy. Here’s what you’ll pay, and what you’ll get in return:
- Bonus Hunt (2x your bet): Get 1 spin and a more than 2x chance of triggering the Free Spins round
- Rabbit Re-spins (10x your bet): Get 1 spin and a guaranteed Rabbit and Carrot collection
- Double Trouble (25x your bet): Get 1 spin and 2 or more Rabbits as well as a guaranteed Carrot collection
- Bonus (100x your bet): This gets you into the Free Spins round
- Super Bonus (500x your bet): Gets you into the Free Spins round with 5 spins and 3 Rabbits
As you’d expect from ELK, the gameplay was perfectly error-free during testing. And that was true whether I played on my phone, tablet, or desktop device.
Maximum Win
I was expecting a higher volatility rate, and therefore a bigger top prize, from this game. The thing is, it’s usually those games that get all the cool designs and crazy features so it’s great that ELK has gone this route to cater to a different niche of players.
The max win for Rabbit Royale slot is €150,000 and the thing is, because the max multiplier is so high (25,000x), you’ll only need to bet at a measly €6 a pop to be in line to win it (€0.20 is the minimum bet). And that’s a big plus in my books.
Conclusion
I love the novelty of Rabbit Royale slot and the theme of gung-ho rabbits pulling one over on their farmer overlords is really cool. But that’s probably not why you’re reading this – you want to know if this game can make you money and if the features are interesting.
And the answer is yes on both counts. And, in theory at least, you can even land endless re-spins, which is an added incentive. And don’t forget that if you’re a player who prefers using a mobile phone, you’ll love how this game looks.
So, do yourself a favor and try this game if what you’ve read appeals to you even slightly. You’ll be drawn into the highs and lows of it all and it’s a glorious way to spend your time.
