Personal testers' opinion about Fairytale Legends: Red Riding Hood pokie

Netent's developers decided to release a whole series of pokies devoted to fairy tales. Red Riding Hood is the first one. After it, in Fairytale Legends series came Fairytale Legends Hansel and Gretel pokie. This pokie triggers "the free spins feature" rarely. According to the statistics, it happens in every 263rd spin (0.38%). 17% of total "the prize pool" is reserved for the winning in "the free spins feature". 83% of "the prize pool" is gambling during the usual spins. The probability of catching a hit is small. This indicator does not exceed 20%.

Review and recommendations by the testing team

This pokie is the first in the Fairytale Legends series. In my opinion, it is quite simple, considering the background of Mirror Mirror pokie, from the same series, due to its small number of pay lines and payouts for them. It has the bonus game and additional features in the usual spins, as well as the other pokies of this series.

• The fairy that flies in the centre is a feature that triggers additional sticky wilds, giving very little winnings due to the small number of pay lines.
• The fairy that flies to the right side gives us the feature of changing symbols after stopping the reels. In this case, it is guaranteed to change the symbols on all 5 reels, which can yield a substantial reward if the symbols are located on the pay line; however, it will be significantly less than at Mirror Mirror pokie.
• It is worth noting that the frequency of the bonus game is relatively low. It will be easy for you to choose playing cards to select the desired bonus and guess the location of the cards after several bonuses in a row. Also, you will be offered to select coins, the bonus game and the free spins features, as well as in the remaining pokies of this series.
• I must admit that the bonus game doesn't give a big win at this pokie. The maximum value is more than 120x bets and what you collect during your game process, and the maximum possible reward is about 200x total bets. During my testing, I was unable to achieve the maximum winning, and my average bonus value was 20x to 40x bets.
• The free spins features are also strange here. It is one of the pokies from the NetEnt company, which, like Novomatic and Amatic companies, can offer a large number of re-triggers, and the total number of free spins can exceed 100. I must admit that the rewards are small in these spins due to the limited number of pay lines and the low payouts associated with them. During my testing, the winnings in free spins did not exceed the value 150x bets and were in the range of 20x to 40x total bets in most cases, which is very small by considering the frequency of their falling out.

The pokie has low dispersion. At the same time, it does not maintain your balance well, and accordingly, this machine is not suitable for completing the bonus requirements. I consider that the most optimal strategy is to make no more than 20-30 spins at a stake of no more than 1/100 of your balance, for playing this pokie. If it has given 1 of the bonus features or the bonus, then you will need to leave the game. I do not recommend this pokie for long game sessions.

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

• The frequency of triggering of the bonus free spins feature is statistically every 263rd spin (0.38%).
• The probability of a hit (any winning) is 19,97%.
• The distribution of the winnings is 83% in the main game and 17% in the bonus.
• The maximum payout during the tests was 212x.
• The average winning from the bonus was 38x.
• Volatility is 4,85 out of 20 (low).
• Cycle length is short (stretching).
• The rating of the pokie for the wagering is 5,74 out of 10.
• RTP of 96.33% allows getting a positive mathematical expectation of winning at the casino.

Description of the pokie

Fairytale Legends: Little Red Riding Hood pokie is set against a fabulous backdrop of maroon and pink colours, featuring lights and fireflies. The point is nearing nightfall, and it becomes unclear why the mother sent her daughter into the woods so late. Whether the pastry wasn't ready, or Mom had other plans for the night. In any case, the walk looks impressive - with every spin, forest landscape in the background moves, gently music tinkling, and bonuses are launched one after the other. It`s easy to learn more about this on our site!

• Fairy Wild Spin. You have 2 (or more wilds) on the reels re-spin comes. Re-spins will be repeated until new wilds appear. Wild symbols become sticky during this feature.

How to win at Fairytale Legends: Red Riding Hood pokie? (conclusion)

One of the most important things to consider before playing any pokie is to always test it in demo mode before depositing real money. We do not think this pokie is suitable for long sessions. The recommended balance is around 100-150 bets. You can try to make 20 - 30 spins in order to trigger one of the bonuses, and if it happens to change the game after it. If you're not lucky enough to trigger any of them for a maximum of 30-35 spins, it's better to change the pokie. We recommend playing with medium stakes for the first time and leaving after 2 or 3 big wins (x50+). Then forget about its existence in the lobby. Although the pokie is in the middle line, according to many specialists, we do not think it's the best choice for bonus hunters.
