Imperial Russia is an everlasting source of inspiration to so many writers, movie directors, and even slot makers. This golden era of the largest country in the world has been noted in numerous literary classics, and legends of its ending still trigger much controversy and speculation throughout the world. Hence, it’s no wonder this romantic period has earned its place in Microgaming’s new 5-reel, 30-payline video slot - “Great Czar”, a title that will reward your attention with all the wealth and glory of imperial Russia.
“Great Tzar” Characteristics
Graphics-wise, some of the slot’s features could look a bit more luxurious and detailed, as the magnitude of this empire deserves. However, the main characters - the czar and czarina, dressed in traditional Russian imperial robes, are presented very nicely, as well as the crown and shield symbols. Apart from these, the slot offers excellent special features, in which players can earn a lot and even choose their fate. These include wilds, scatters and free spins with multipliers, which are really worth the wait as they sometimes pay massive amounts of money.
Money-wise, this slot it absolutely perfect for one type of players - low-rollers, who can now enjoy a game tailored to fit their pockets, with coin amounts going from 1 to 5 cents. The range will suit some mid-rollers as well, but mostly thanks to the fact that you can place up to 5 coins per payline.
Special Features
Even though the game looks a bit basic at the beginning, once you start discovering what’s behind its special features, you’ll realize that the initial simplicity is only apparent.
Yes, the features are standard ones, especially the wild and scatter which perform their basic roles - to substitute for regular symbols and to pay any, respectively. However, the free spins, triggered by three or more scatter/bonus icons is absolutely priceless - it takes you to a wonderful view of imperial Moscow and lets you choose your prize - different amounts of free spins with different multipliers. We chose 15 free spins with a 2x multiplier and it paid heftily, despite some empty spins.
Conclusion
“Great Czar” is something you should definitely give a try. Perhaps it lacks some of the Russian snowy romance, but it has so many other qualities, including monetary ones, that make it more than recommendable!
