Romeo and Juliet

Romeo and Juliet from Pragmatic Play turns Shakespeare's tragedy into a slot, with the lovers' feuding parents, a vial of poison, a dagger and a white rose on reels set against a dark night sky. The game uses five reels, three rows and 25 paylines, with medium volatility.

Its wild mechanic tells the story. A Romeo wild lands on reel 1 and steps one place to the right with each free respin, while a Juliet wild lands on reel 5 and steps one place to the left. If the two meet on the same position, they merge and expand to cover the whole reel, and 25 free spins follow with that wild reel held in place for the entire round. Stakes run from €0.25 to €200, the RTP is 96.18% and the maximum win is €160,000. It is an inventive choice for players who like story-driven features.

The parents of Romeo and Juliet, the poison, the knife and the white rose are the premium symbols, paying from 100 up to 5,000 coins, with the gentleman in green at the top of the table. The A, K, Q, J and 10 card ranks pay 25 to 500 coins. Wins need three matching symbols on a payline.
