Prominent iGaming software developer, Evoplay Entertainment, is back yet again with its latest slot title, Raccoon Tales. The game follows an intrepid raccoon on its quest to find an enchanted treasure. The studio perfectly balances the classic thrill of RNG gaming with an immersive theme.
Players must vanquish terrifying monsters and dragons standing in their path using the raccoon’s help by landing winning combinations on the reels. The victorious streak continues by defeating the monster. Evoplay Entertainment included five bonus Mechanics, three Random Events, and three Free Spins to assist the players in their adventure. The forests are home to five monsters, and defeating them triggers the Big Wilds.
Bonus, Scatter, and Payouts
Raccoon Tales features 7-reels and 7-rows and forms a winning cluster with five or more symbols. The game offers a 96.20% RTP with a maximum payout of 2,286x total stake and 44% Hit Frequency. Buy-ins range from €0.10 to €100.
Forming a cluster of 5 to 15 matching symbols activates the Drop mechanic. The winning symbols explode to reveal new logos. The cycle continues on landing additional bonus symbols. Wilds appear at random, substituting symbols in any regular cluster, increasing the chances of scoring a big win.
Defeating a monster unlocks any of the game’s five modifiers at random. The list includes 5-9 random wilds, two lines of matching symbols (one vertical, the other horizontal), 3×3 cluster of matching symbols near the existing play area, one random wild on each reel, or 2 key Scatters added at random.
The Key scatters unlock ten free spins. But this feature is only available in the paid version. Here players can fight any of the three dragons to claim free spins. While the Green Dragons amplify wins by 2x each, a total 6x bonus on landing all three. Red Dragons present four Wilds initially, offering up to 20 on later reels. Blue Dragons are a part of the free spin bonus, eventually, double-stacking Wilds leading up to a maximum of 6 positions.
Synopsis
Evoplay Entertainment never disappoints with its vivid gameplay and Raccoon Tales is no exception. The enchanting story of a raccoon’s adventure to find a hidden treasure is captivating. And so are the battles between the raccoon and the monsters. The creators could have improved the symbols; however, since gemstones as regular symbols don’t gel with the overall theme.
Raccoon Tales is designed to keep the players hooked. The insane list of modifiers like multiple free spins and the Drop mechanic helps improve a player’s chances of scoring the Big Win. Equally important are the 3 random events, namely, Bog Wild, the Key, and Pleasant Surprise.
Moreover, high volatility is bound to attract veterans, while amateurs should work on their strategies before spinning the reels. Raccoon Tales further bolsters Evoplay’s reputation as a leading iGaming studio. Founded in 2017, the creator made its UK debut earlier this year with a series of innovative launches. And the raccoon continues its legacy!
