Crazy Chameleons is a bit of a crazy title indeed, at least they got that part right. Microgaming decided to go a little nutty on us in this game, so they created chameleon surfers. That’s right, the main heroes in this slot are chameleon lizards, tall enough to ride surfboards and wearing boxer shorts. They’re blue or green, and they pretty much look like alien lizards with very long tongues that are hanging sideways, long enough to reach their belly.
It’s a very simple game, offering only 5 lines on its 5 reels. Add to that the presence of a single feature, a wild symbol, and you get the impression that it’s a classic in modern slot’s clothing. Its jackpot is valued at a top value of $25,000.
Features of Crazy Chameleons
The game might have five reels, but the feature list is about as good as the one from a classic title. The only symbol that is offered in this game is a wild symbol, and it’s a simple one, without anything extra attached.
The wild symbol’s image is that of the big wave. When it makes an appearance, the wild symbol tries to help you by taking the place of any symbol that is needed in its place, in order to create a combination. It might not happen very often, but it does happen and the wild can be quite useful at times. It doesn’t have multipliers and it doesn’t award prizes of its own, but it does replace all other symbols, no exceptions in this case.
Betting options and jackpots
When you place a bet in Crazy Chameleons, you do it on a maximum of 5 lines, using 1 coin in each case. The smallest denomination allowed is $0.25, while the highest one is $5. When all the lines are selected, with the highest denomination, the maximum bet is $25.
You get your chance to win a big prize in this game, and if you do get the right combo you can expect up to 5,000 coins, or $25,000.
Design and symbols
You’re not going to be impressed with the design of Crazy Chameleons, though the lizards that are riding the waves might get at least a smile out of you. That’s if you look at the paytable background picture though, as only a lizard head is used as a symbol, and it doesn’t even appear that often. The rest of the time, this is a slot machine themed around the beach and the ocean. A light blue background sits behind the symbols, with playing cards coming in all kinds of colors.
Symbols: Chameleon (5,000 coins), Big Wave (wild), Sun (3,000 coins), Bird (2,000 coins), Shorts (700 coins), Surfboards (600 coins), King (500 coins), Queen (400 coins), Jack (300 coins) and 10 (100 coins).
Is It Worth Playing?
The game is unusual enough that you will probably have fun with it, even though the chameleon character will not show up that often, since it’s the one that pays best. The lack of features and paylines also recommends this slot to a certain type of player, which believes that less is more.
You will find Crazy Chameleons at any online casino which chooses to use software from Microgaming, playable either for free or for real money.
