The Grand Circus

Circus is one of those entertainment types that you either love or hate. There’s simply no middle. Clowns can be rather scary to some people, animal training may be observed as torture by some, and the whole concept may also seem a bit too silly for anyone over the age of 5. However, one cannot also deny its immense entertainment possibilities – how would you otherwise explain its popularity through centuries to the modern age; many other things have been swallowed by civilization, but not circus. It has survived ups and downs, to the present day.

Still, I don’t think a single person can resist circus themed slots, which are fun and cheerful from top to bottom. Those little time consumers are absolutely worth trying, as their generosity may surprise you at times. Let’s just take a look at a perfect example of such a slot – Microgaming’s “The Grand Circus.”

This fantastic five-reel, 20-payline slot represents all the best of this theme: there are brightly colored tents, clowns, animal cages, snacks, clown-mobile, as well as animals – lions, bears, elephants. The whole background is a big circus arena, with flashing lights, and fun accompanying sounds. It also offers plenty of opportunities to win good money, especially with the help of special symbols, which may award you with some nice free spins and instant credits.

“The Grand Circus” is not overly demanding in terms of money. What’s more, it actually provides so many options that it’s hard to find a player who cannot afford this fun. The coin values start from as little as $0.01 and may reach $1. You can choose the number of lines, up to 20 of them, as well as the number of coins you want to place per payline (maximum 10). Of course, it’s more than recommendable to play on all 20 lines, as your winning odds will be much higher with a higher number of paylines; if you want to cut down costs, you can play with a lower number of coins.

As previously stated, there’s a great number of winning chances, especially given the number of special symbols - there are three scatters which are in a money-giving mood all the time. The first one is The Circus tent symbol, whose line-up from left to right (for three or more of them) will trigger a bonus feature. This one is pretty difficult to get, but once you do, you can win up to 20 free spins, and a great deal of bonus coins, which makes it quite lucrative. Also, there are The Grand Circus and the circus chief symbols, also serving as scatters. They don’t trigger any special features, but they can serve as each other’s substitute, which brings higher chances of winning some of the high prizes attached to them.

“The Grand Circus” is one of those slots which you’ll simply love regardless of its theme. And the main reason for this is its overall quality – not only in graphics and sounds, but also in its generosity. What more can you ask for, really?
