Fairytale Legends: Red Riding Hood

Fairytale Legends: Red Riding Hood was released by NetEnt in October 2016. He presents us with the adaptation of the tale of Little Red Riding Hood. It is a charming and somewhat more magical version than the original tale.

We will meet a cheerful little red riding hood who goes to see her grandmother who is in a sick bed. He takes her a little basket with honey and other delicacies, but to get to Granny's house he has to cross the forest inhabited by a dangerous and cunning wolf. It is the story of a very old tale that has come down to our days by oral transmission and that was covered by the Brothers Grimm.

And how good NetEnt is at adapting stories, short stories and movies, it does it like no one else. They know how to bring the spirit and create an original and fun slot. And as they are so good at it, it seems that this has not been the only time, they already did superbly in 2011 with Jack and the Beanstalk and with Fairytale Legends: Hansel & Gretel in April 2017. Little Red Riding Hood is going to be with us throughout the game, keeping us company and celebrating all our victories. In the lower left part of the screen, with his little basket and every time you get a prize you will see how he celebrates it by jumping for joy.

The game mechanics are not particularly surprising. Once again, the Red Riding Hood slot machine makes use of the popular format of 5 reels, 3 rows, with 20 fixed lines of bets. The minimum amount that we can bet on this game is $0.20 and the maximum possible bet is $200 per spin. In terms of percentage of return to the player is of 96.3% (RTP) , a figure that is in the usual average.

The wilds symbols can appear in the normal game and in the free spins bonus, always on reels 2, 3 and 4. When two or more are accumulated on the screen, they will act as sticky wild, remaining fixed in the same position while an extra free spin, a re-spin, starts. The re-spins end when we find no more sticky wilds.

The cousin that first takes you when you load the game has a very important function and you will be happy every time you see it appear in your game plan. She has one main function and that is to outsource random bonus features to you. She has three pieces that she can attend to and these are the effects of Fairy Magic, Fairy Surprise and Fairy Wild. Let's take a closer look at these:

• Fairy Magic Spin - when this bonus feature is activated, the fairy will create a group of between 5 and 9 winning symbols on the reels. There will never be the highest paying symbols or the lowest paying symbols. They will be in the middle layer.
• Fairy Surprise : it is another function that the fairy can activate at random when there has been no win and that selects a random symbol from the reels (also of intermediate value) and changes the symbols starting with those of less value until getting a prize.
• Fairy Wild Spider : in this feature the fairy appears to transform some symbols, randomly, into wilds on reels 2, 3 or 4. When the reels stop and the winnings are collected, these symbols will remain fixed and an extra spin will be launched, which is called in English Re-Spin.

When we manage to collect 3 blue trunks on reels 1, 3 and 5 we are given the opportunity to choose one of them. Each one hides a casino bonus different and it will depend on how lucky you are that one or the other will touch you.

• Beware the walf bonus . It is a bonus game, posed as if it were a board game and where little Red Riding hood has to travel a path through the forest to Granny's house. Along the way we will come across coin prizes, multipliers, etc... Careful! Because at any moment the wolf can appear, eat Little Red Riding Hood and the bonus game is over.
• Free Spins . When the bonus is activated we will receive a total of 10 free spins. While the bonus lasts we can win more free spins if we get bonus symbols. For 1 bonus they will give us two more extra spins, for 2 bonus symbols they will grant us 4 more free spins and for 3 bonuses we will receive another 10 additional free spins. Bonus symbols can only appear on reels 1, 3 and 5.
  If we get 2 wild symbols or more, they will act as sticky wild and will grant an extra free spin staying fixed in the same place until it ends.
  
• Coin Win . If we get this bonus we will have a direct win prize. They will give you the bet you are playing multiplied by 15.
