Court of Hearts

Return to Wonderland for another reel adventure on the slot from Play’n GO. Court of Hearts is the sequel to Rabbit Hole Riches that will have you stand trial next to Jack of Hearts on a cascading reel set, accused of a crime you didn’t commit. Convince the jury in a trial of feature wilds, multipliers and bonus rounds with the help from the White Rabbit, Cheshire Cat, Mad Hatter and Co. What will it be? ‘Off with your head!’ or can you prove your innocence and break free with wins of up to 8,500 times your bet.

Slot Details

Court Of Hearts is a 5×3 cascading grid slot with ten fixed pay lines. Pays run from left to right for three or more connecting symbols. Any wins are then removed from the grid, allowing more symbols to cascade down creating chances of more winners within the same spin. You can stand trial on desktop, tablet or mobile from 0.10 to 100 credits per spin. The game has near-maximum volatility (9/10) with a default RTP of 96.27%. Beware, lower settings at 94.23% or 91.23% might be offered, always check the help files to find out which version you will be playing.

The Wonderland court sets the scene with familiar characters like The King of Hearts, Caterpillar, March Hare and Dormouse. As you would expect in Wonderland, the White Rabbit is keen to help, this time with magical, colourful portals of wild modifiers. A decorative wooden stand frames the reels while shades of red with accents of gold or mahogany adorn the background and frame the symbols or highlight beautifully drawn characters.

The four low paying symbols appear on mahogany blocks embossed with artwork – turquoise Spades, red Hearts, ember Diamonds and emerald Clubs – awarding from 1x to 1.2x your bet for a single five of a kind. The premiums are characters from the novel – Golden March Hare, Green Mad Hatter, Blue Jack Of Hearts and Red Queen Of Hearts. Hit five on a line to win 4x to 20x your stake.

The Queen’s Sceptre is the wild, substituting for all symbols except scatters and also paying 20x for five. A Rabbit Hole bonus symbol appears at random while three scatter symbols will trigger the free spins.

Court of Hearts Slot Features

The 1865 novel by English writer Lewis Caroll is for game developers the gift that keeps on giving. Similar to ancient Egypt or the Aztec civilization, the plot and characters from the novel have been at the core of countless video slots and no doubt, more will follow. Court of Hearts is after Rabbit Hole Riches the next addition to the list coming from the studios of Play’n GO. Let’s take a closer look.

Using his marvellous powers, the White Rabbit disrupts the order at the Court of Hearts by casting magical portals of wild characters to the reels, each with their unique modifiers that will trigger either Rabbit Hole Bonus or Rabbit Reward Free Spins.

The Rabbit Hole Bonus symbol can randomly land on any spin in the base game or free spins. Once it does, the magic portal will again randomly select one of three modifiers.

• The Cheshire Cat Wild: A full-reel wild that changes position after every cascade until no more wins occur.
• The Caterpillar Wilds: The Caterpillar blows smoke across the grid and places 4 to 7 random wilds.
• The Dormouse: Throws a 2×2 mega wild onto the reels that will randomly grow to a 2×3, 3×2, 3×3 or 4×3 size.

Watch out for the White Rabbit as he can randomly jump on to the screen and hand out a Rabbit Reward that will place two scatters on the reels, increasing your chance to gain entry to the main event.

Speaking of the main event, you will need to have minimum three scatters in view to trigger the 9 Free Spins and a coin win of 5x your bet. Any further scatter will award an extra 5x your bet but no additional spins. The Queen of Hearts will turn into a wild symbol for the duration of the feature while the Rabbit’s magic portal can land on any free spins to trigger one of the three modifiers. Plus, every line win will increase the win multiplier by x1, no limits. Lastly, for every scatter appearing you will get +1 free spin.

Final Verdict

OK, so another Alice in Wonderland-themed slot might not be overly inspiring but this one has a good storyline with ample twist and enough win potential to make an impact. It looks beautiful and the visuals are something Lewis Caroll would have been proud of. Every provider seems to want a big hitter in their catalogue and Court of Hearts might just fit that bill. Make sure to keep an eye out for variable RTP settings typical for Play’n GO slots for the best chance of escaping the rabbit hole with wins of up to a magical 8,500x bet.
