This game was created by NextGen Gaming, and as the title will tell you it is themed around the city of Venice, a place where all romantics want to go. The game is worthy of the theme that it was built around, with charming graphics offering you views of the city’s canals and gondoliers, with the bridges of Venice being shown on both sides of the reels. The reels look just as good, and the features of Venetian Rose are the ones that you would want from any slot.
Venetian Rose seems to be standard in most ways, combining the 5 reels/25 lines of the layout with the features that include free games, multipliers, scatters and wilds. The prize is below average though, worth only $6,000.
Features of Venetian Rose
Take a look at the paytable info, and you will find a list of options and symbols which is common these days in modern slots, but that doesn’t make them less valuable. The wild symbol is there, along with a scatter, with free spins and 3x multipliers.
The Lady is the image chosen to represent the wild here. You will get this symbol from time to time, and you will notice that two types of positive outcomes are possible when this happens. You can get it to substitute for another symbol, in which case a regular combo will form and award its prize because the Lady provided the missing icon. The second possibility is the better one, where multiple Lady wilds appeared arranged on a line, from left to right, so you get the wild’s prize, which is the biggest one available in this slot (3,000 coins).
The Mask is the scatter symbol in Venetian Rose, a symbol which is not required to form regular combinations. The symbols can be anywhere and they will still contribute to payouts of up to 200 times the bet and to the start of the free spins.
Free Games Feature
The free spins you obtain in this game are awarded as a result of 3 or more Mask scatters being on the reels. 10 free spins are won this way, with the multiplier of 3x applied to all their wins. The 10 free spins can be triggered again while the previous ones are in use.
Betting options and jackpots
A betting range that goes from $0.01 to $50 is allowed in Venetian Rose. It uses 1 to 25 coins, each one having a value that only goes from $0.01 to $2.
The best payout that it can muster is going to give you 3,000 coins, and their value will be up to $6,000.
Design and symbols
You will find a very elegant design in Venetian Rose, worthy of the beautiful city around which the game was built. The background image and the reels are both created in the same way, using the city’s buildings and views as inspiration. The symbols do come in poker card variants as well, but the ones that are themed are gorgeous images of masks, gondolas, masked men and ladies, all things that Venice is known for.
Symbols: Lady (3,000 coins, wild), Mask (200x bet, scatter), Masked Man (750 coins), Gondola (500 coins), Binoculars (250 coins), Hand Fan (250 coins), Ace (150 coins), King (150 coins), Queen (125 coins), Jack (125 coins), 10 (100 coins) and 9 (100 coins).
Is It Worth Playing?
The beauty of the game should be enough to bring it plenty of fans and players, but it does OK with the features as well. I’m only disappointed in the top payouts, which are low even for NextGen.
Venetian Rose can be found at any NextGen casino, where you get a chance to play it for real money or in free mode.
