Mighty Hat Lamp Of Gold Review

Playtech are one of the industry’s veterans, and it’s certainly nice to see them still competing with the new guys and doing it on a regular basis. It seems to us that they are struggling a bit with freshness and innovation, but, with Mighty Hat Lamp of Gold, they certainly bring us a healthy dose of complexity. It might even be more than we originally asked for, but we’ll get you the details later on. For now, let’s kick off this review by saying that the fun takes place on a pretty classic setup with 5 reels, 3 rows and 243 ways to win.

Thematically, it is clear that the designers drew inspiration from Arabian fairy tales, but we aren’t quite sure why they decided to throw in the titular mighty hat. It’s present in an animated form at all times, to the left of the playing field, but it’s not really in line with the rest of the general theme, is it? The overall production values are fine, but we have to say that the graphics are a bit too over the top in a few places. Some of the symbols spill over to other positions, too, which makes things a bit confusing – we certainly like our symbols to have the same size, but there you go. It’s a colorful mess, and one that you should definitely want to see!

The volatility of Mighty Hat Lamp of Gold is medium, and its jackpot allegedly stands at 1,000x your bet, though this hasn’t been officially confirmed yet. You can then play for stakes between £0.05 and £500 at select casinos. Finally, the game’s theoretical RTP is 96.24% by default, which is somewhat above average.

Mighty Hat Lamp of Gold Slot Features

There are eleven pay symbols in total, and the designers grouped them quite nicely into three sets. First, there are low-paying card ranks from Nines to Aces, which all pay the same. Then, there are medium-paying thematic symbols with flying carpets, tigers, rings, and male characters – again, these all pay the same. Finally, there’s the top-paying princess symbol, which is worth the most and which therefore has its very own category.

In terms of special symbols, you can look forward to Lamp Wilds, Special Lamp Wilds, and Palace Scatters. Lamp Wilds are the most straightforward, since all they do is that they substitute for other symbols to complete winning combinations.

Special Lamp Wilds are much more interesting. They can land only on the middle reel, and they work as classic Wilds, but they can also reward you with one of four gameplay features.

First of all, they can give you the Respin feature. Here, you’ll get a single free respin, with some of the reels held in position. Also, all ways to win will get a random win multiplier of 1x, 2x, or 3x, so you can get a nice payout boost in the process as well.

Secondly, you can get the Treasure Chest feature. In this one, you’ll get a treasure chest to open, and this chest can contain up to 5 prizes. You can get one of the game’s four jackpots, a random cash prize, or either the Free Spins feature or the Mighty Hat feature. For the record – the jackpots are worth 20x, 50x, 500x, and 1,000x your bet.

Thirdly, a Special Lamp Wild can net you the Free Spins feature, which comes with a set of 5 free spins. During free spins, sets of Palace Scatters will award you various cash rewards, and they can also give you extra free spins. If you get another Special Lamp Wild to land during a free spin, it will trigger a different feature or give you 5 bonus free spins.

Finally, there’s the Mighty Hat feature, which is the most complex of them all. You’ll get 9 special free spins, which are all about landing special Stone symbols that upgrade the borders of positions on which they land, while also giving you extra special free spins when landing as a set. Once the feature ends, you’ll get rewards for the borders you’ve accumulated.

Review Summary

Although Mighty Hat Lamp of Gold is a bit over-the-top visually, and although it is most certainly not the most polished slot around, it definitely has its charm. Even better, it comes with a nice variety of gameplay features that always leave you on the edge, wanting a bit more. That’s a great quality for a slot to have, and we can therefore recommend this release to all players that are looking for games that are outright fun and that don’t mind them being a bit of a mess graphically.
