Testers opinion

Frankly, I do not like this machine. No popularity, empty prize pool. Statistically, the bonus free spins feature launches in every 243rd spin (0,41%). I don't recommend the game for bonus hunters, with 4 out of 10. The volatility is at the middle level, with its 5,8 out of 20. The idea of the re-spins on every pay combination is not new, and it is used in the legendary Jack and the Beanstalk slot same as Jack Hammer and Jack Hammer 2.

Review and recommendations from the testing team

Robin Hood: Shifting Riches is a quite exciting slot with an exciting idea and gameplay. Here Netent tries to apply the accumulating system on the reels. The same tactic was applied in the following games by Microgaming: Untamed Giant Panda, Untamed Crowned Eagle.

  • In the main game, the slot regularly gives out winning combinations, as well as re-spins with a multiplier up to x5. In contrast, for example, Jack and the Beanstalk slot, where the number of re-spins is limited depending on the location of the wild symbol. In this slot, their number is limited only by the winning combinations. The payouts in the main game are of course not great and are enough only for keeping the balance.
  • Since the free spins feature is triggered not by the classic three scatter symbols, but by the collected bags, you will have to wait for the feature for a long time in the first game session, but later, as the chests are filled with bags, the free spins can be triggered with a small interval.
  • The potential of the free spins feature for giving a big win is not great. The feature is practically no different from the main game, except in the issuance of an additional wild symbol. The payouts in the bonus game are almost identical to the payouts in the main game. This is compensated only by the potential for issuing re-triggers; when they are put on the first and second reels, you will receive + 5 spins each time they move on the re-spin, i.e. up to +20 spins.
  • The average win on the free spins feature is 20x - 60x total bets, which is not very much. This slot can give out more winnings only with top symbols (which is extremely rare), or with a large number of re-triggers.
  • We would not recommend this slot for playing with real money because of the low potential of increasing the balance. Also, not the best choice for bonus hunters.

Netent declares the following probabilities

  • The total percentage of the return to the slot is 96.75%. Of these, 76.9% in the usual spin and 19.8% during the bonus free games.
  • The probability of getting any winning is 35.6% in the usual spins and 45.6% during the bonus free games.
  • The maximum winning is 240,000 coins.
  • RTP of 96.75% allows getting a positive mathematical expectation of winning at the casino.

Hidden parameters and settings of the slot (data from testing)

  • The frequency of triggering the free spins bonus feature is statistically every 243rd spin (0,41%).
  • Volatility is 5,8 out of 20 (from low to average)
  • Cycle length is average.

Specifications

Rarely, which of the slot machines can boast such an abundance of technical specifications:

  • Here are 20 pay lines and five reels.
  • Shifting Reels. If you hit the winning in the previous spin, all combinations of symbols arranged on the reels will be moved to the right by one position, and the first reel will spin once, thereby increasing the number of the winning. Each winning re-spin is adding a +1 multiplier. Five following successful combinations will bring you an x5 multiplier.
  • The gambler can trigger a series of free games after the collection in one of the chests located at the bottom of the game board, the four bags of gold.
  • The RTP of the slot machine is 96.8%.
  • There are no additional bonus rounds, risk games and progressive jackpot at the slot.
