Queen of Hearts is a game from Microgaming, with a theme which seems to be inspired by a character from Alice in Wonderland, a popular children’s book. The Queen of Hearts seems to love to eat, as many of the symbols used by the game involve heart shaped cookies, which are either sitting on a plate, being delivered by attractive waitresses or someone is eating them. The Rhyming Reels series has four titles, three of which are based on nursery rhymes.
This game has the most paylines out of the four titles from the Rhyming Reels series. 30 lines total exist on the 5 reels, a jackpot of $2,000 can be won, while features bring you free spins, 2x multipliers, a wild and a scatter symbol.
Features of Rhyming Reels – Queen Of Hearts
As the features of Queen of Hearts, you’re going to discover a wild and a scatter symbol, with multipliers offered, with free spins and stacked symbols.
First of all, the Queen of Hearts, a regular symbol which is capable of offering some of the higher prizes of the game. The reason I’m mentioning this symbol in the feature section is related to the way it makes appearances. Both during the base game and during free spins you’re going to see the Queen of Hearts appear stacked on the reels, giving you a decent chance that multiple combinations will be formed at the same time.
The next symbol worth mentioning is the Logo of Queen of Hearts. This symbol acts as the wild of this slot. Its appearance on the same line, with multiple symbols arranged from left to right, will reward the player with payouts of up to 4,000x. As a wild, it is obviously capable of taking the place of other symbols, without having too many limitations. The only symbol it can’t replace is the scattered Crown. All the others can get help from a wild, and if they do they also get a 2x multiplier for their wins.
The Crown scatter offers both free spins and prizes, like any good symbol of this type does these days. You’re going to get payouts of 2x to 200x the triggering bet, as long as you have between 2 and 5 scattered Crowns.
Free Games Feature
In addition to the prizes I already mentioned, Queen of Hearts will give you 10 spins for free. The requirement is the presence of three or more randomly located Crown symbols. You can retrigger the free spins, plus all their wins are doubled (2x multiplier).
Betting options and jackpots
Despite the relatively large number of lines, the wagers placed here only reach a maximum value of $15. They get there by covering up to 30 lines, with 10 coin bets. These coins are only worth between $0.01 and $0.05, so the line wager doesn’t go higher than $0.50.
Up to 4,000 coins can be won with the wild’s assistance, which means up to $2,000 cash for you. The scatter symbol does a better job in this area, with its 200x prize being worth $3,000.
Design and symbols
The theme being inspired by the Queen of Hearts, she is visible in one of the symbols, while many others have small hearts on them. You have a dark red background with hearts on it, a book like support for the reels, some very ugly playing cards and attractive themed symbols. There are heart shaped cookies in a lot of the pictures, some sexy waitresses bringing plates of the stuff and the Queen that’s eating them.
Symbols: Logo (4,000x, wild), Crown (200x bet, scatter), Queen (1,000x), Boy (800x), Girl Servants (600x), Cookies (400x), Gloves (200x), Ace (100x), King (80x), Queen (60x), Jack (40x) and 10 (30x).
Is It Worth Playing?
There are plenty of things to enjoy about this slot, and it’s clearly not your average game, but I for one am disappointed with its top payouts.
You will find Rhyming Reels – Queen Of Hearts at any online casino which chooses to use software from Microgaming, playable either for free or for real money.
