SINISTER CIRCUS

HOW TO PLAY SINISTER CIRCUS

When we were little, we were quite scared of the circus, especially the Clown. Even though he is supposed to be funny, most kids were afraid of him. In the 2019 release, the Clown is used as an expanding Wild that can only appear during the base game and will cover the entire reel. A regular Wild is actually the Whip used for wild animals.

The Knives represent the Scatter that triggers the Free Spins feature. The Ring Master is leading the group of artists, followed by the Gypsy Fortuneteller, a Tiger, a Monkey and a dancing Bear. Card suits are used for low-paying symbols.

Even though the 2019 release seems scary, there is nothing to be frightened about when it comes to the rules of the game. The 1×2 Gaming product features five reels, three rows and benefits from 25 fixed paylines, which pay left to right, starting from the far left reel, with three of a kind being the minimum for landing payouts.

Betting is fixed at 25 coins per spin, but the coin denomination can be altered, so you can bet as low as $0.25 and as high as $100 per single spin. The control panel is a bit odd, but you will find your way around in no time at all.

SINISTER CIRCUS (1X2 GAMING): CASINOBLOKE’S VERDICT

First of all, we are not that fond of scary video slots, especially when it is combined with a circus, but we have to admit that 1×2 Gaming did a tremendous job when it comes to the visuals and the soundtrack. The soundtrack will send a shiver or two down your spine, while the scary performers will make you think twice before you enter the tent. As for the Free Spins feature, it is quite good, even though it takes ages to trigger. Use the Clown Wild as much as you can, because it always expands to give you more payouts.
