Sherlock's Reel Mystery

An OpenBet slot that gives us 5 reels and 20 paylines, Sherlock's Reel Mystery comes with a top prize of $6,250, plus features that include free spins, scatter symbols and wild symbols.

Sherlock Holmes and his adventures are in the middle of this slot's story, offering us a look at some of the things he accomplished. You will find the streets of London in the background image, at night, while on the reels you will find symbols and characters that have some sort of connection to the stories. The list of images used for symbols starts off with the Scotland Yard inspector and continues with the Baker Street sign, the playing card symbols from Q to A which are placed on luggage, Dr Watson, the Hound of the Baskervilles, Moriarty, the newspaper with the magnifier, the safe, the violin, the gun with the Wild text and, of course, Sherlock Holmes himself.

The top jackpot of the slot is 250 coins, which at their maximum value of $25, are worth $6,250 (the bonus game payout goes up to $250,000 though). The largest wager possible here is $500, made on twenty paylines. The smallest coin value is $0.02.

The symbol that gives away the big prize, when there are five of them on a payline, is the one with the hound. The prize drops to 100 coins if there are four symbols instead of five, and to 50 coins if there are three.

Three progressive jackpots are available, and they are all awarded by the same symbol, the one with the magnifier placed on top of a newspaper. Three symbols will award the smallest progressive jackpot, called Mini, while four symbols will award the Midi Jackpot and five symbols will give you the Maxi Jackpot.

A number of other features were used here, and we'll start with the wild, which substitutes for most of the other symbols (the regular ones). It doesn't have any multipliers unfortunately.

The scatter symbol is the next one, and it gives away prizes plus free spins, depending on how many of these symbols have appeared. A minimum of three are needed, and the number of free spins given is between 10 and 60.

The safe symbol activates the bonus game, if there are three or more of them. The prizes are between 4x and 20x the stake wagered, plus the value of the stake itself.

The second bonus symbol is the one with Sherlock Holmes, and will give away the true jackpot of the game. It pays up to 500x the stake, meaning that you can win as much as $250,000 with it.

A game that no fan of Sherlock Holmes should miss, this slot has a very nice prize for those lucky enough to get it, plus some of the characters that made the stories famous.
