It’s time for a trip to the circus

The Golden Ticket slot is a unique slot machine powered by Play’n GO. It’s 5×5 grid doesn’t spin it’s reels, but drops them in from above and explodes its wins.

The Golden Ticket slot machine has graphics that can rival many of the best NetEnt and blockbuster Microgaming slot games. With a theme set on a backdrop of circus tents and lights, you join the ring master, the clown and the strong man in a unique type of video slot.

Here you won’t find any of those A – 9 symbols, instead all of the slot’s symbols are represented by things you might find laying around the dressing rooms of the circus folk. These include juggling clubs, heavy weights, the ring masters hat and whip, as well as the three characters we mentioned before.

And, of course, there’s the golden ticket symbol which acts as the wild creating a cascade of winning opportunities and increasing multiplier wins.

One of the first things you might notice when you open up this video slot is that there’s no traditional reels, instead it’s a square 5×5 rows, and when you first press the ‘start’ button these reels won’t spin, but drop in from above.

This Golden Ticket slot also doesn’t have any fixed number of pay lines. A winning line can be made from 3 or more symbols adjacent to each other vertically or horizontally, which tend explode and disappear from your screen.

The more that disappear on screen, the bigger the multiplier, so you’re really aiming to get a whole chain reaction of wins.

It sounds a little quirky, but stick with it, because the way the bonus feature work makes this setup fun and interesting, rather than just another gimmick.

Clear the reels to find the bonus

As this is no ordinary slot machine, the way you trigger the bonus game is not normal either.

The word bonus will appear behind one or more of the reels and if you manage to find enough winning combinations to reveal the full word bonus you win free spins.

You will then win 10 free spins and are taken to a shooting gallery of symbols. In order to win on the free spins you have to find 5 or more of the same symbols.

We have to admit that we’ve had our share of disappointment here, often only managing to win at most up to 10x our total bet on many occasion. And that was after a good 100 odd spins to trigger it.

But we have two bits of good news for you:

1. There is a far bigger possible win in the free spins if you get lucky.
2. You don’t need the free spins to win big: we’ve seen a good 50 – 60x our bet on many occasion in the base game alone.

But of course, what you are aiming for is to clear the full board to you will win 1000 times your bet.

Now that’s a good result, with or without free spins.

Golden Ticket mobile slot on Android, iOS and Windows

Much like many of the Play’n GO games you’ll find online, especially the more recent ones, you’ll be able to play them on your mobile phone and tablet.

And not just your Android, iPad or iPhone but Windows devices too.

You’ll find all the great same graphics, theme and game play on your smartphone and tablet as you would playing on the Golden Ticket online slot.

Is this circus worth the prices of admission?

That’s the question isn’t it?

What you have here are fixed betting options of 0.20, 1, 2, 10 and 40 cash. Which doesn’t allow for a wide range of betting options.

So it’s perhaps not as accommodating as many of the other online or mobile slots from other casino software providers.

However, if you can get over the lack of betting choice, then what you have here is a high return to player rate of 96.73%, a medium variance slot that hits often, and the chance to win big in the base game.

It’s circus slot theme adds to the fun and excitement with the slot’s sounds also bringing this casino game to life.

So go buy a ticket and see for yourself if this Golden Ticket casino game is the one for you.
