The Crystal Prince has been praised for his generosity, and can conjure up Golden Wilds and Multipliers with the flick of his wand.
A winter wonderland awaits in Quickspins new game, getting you in the mood for the holiday season, and if you’re lucky you might even see the Northern Lights.
Quickspin have turned a lot of heads with their fierce Hammer of Vulcan game, which is easily their best game to date. Can the cold wintery charm of Crystal Prince Slot hold a candle to the red-hot fiery Hammer of Vulcan?
Winter Crystals
The theme and audio for Crystal Prince Slot is really nice. In the backdrop you’ll see big glaciers and a frozen lake, and you be treated to an ethereal and elegant tune.
First impressions of Crystal Prince Slot certainly make you think it’s a peaceful game. Just sit back and relax. It’s definitely the polar opposite of what Hammer of Vulcan is.
If you reach the bonus you’ll even be treated to a different kind of visuals in the form of the mystical Northern Lights.
Betting and Symbols
Betting options cover a wide enough array of settings that everybody can have a go. For those who like to play it a little safer, a minimum £0.20 option is available, and for those who want to play it a bit riskier, then a higher option is available.
There’s plenty of different settings in between the two as well. Crystal Prince Slot breaks the paytable down in to High, Medium and Low paying symbols.
The only high paying symbol is the Crystal Prince himself, and the medium symbols are the purple, orange, green and blue gems. Low paying symbols are represented by the red, yellow, green and blue snowflakes.
There’re also Wild symbols that substitute for all but the Scatter symbol, and Wild Frost Multipliers.
The Base game and Features
Crystal Prince Slot is a ways to win game, so it ignores traditional payline mechanics. If 3 or more symbols connect on adjacent reels, starting from the left most reel, then a win will be formed.
You’ll start off with 4,096 ways to win, but this can be increased by some of the features available in Crystal Prince.
Snowfall
Any win will expand the reel by one row. New symbols will fall in and if another win is formed based off of the new configuration, then another row will be added. There’s potential to get the rows up to a maximum of 8 rows high for 262,144 ways to win.
Blizzard Seal
At the top on the 8th row you’ll notice a frozen reel with a W x2, x3 symbol on the right. This is the Blizzard seal. To unlock this, you’ll need to fill all 8 rows. This will spawn 1-3 Wild Frost Multiplier Wilds.
Wild Frost Multiplier Wild
Wild Frost Wilds are just standard Wilds with no multiplier, but Wild Frost Multiplier Wilds may have a 2x or 3x multiplier. This will substitute for all symbols except for the regular Wild Frost Wild and Scatter.
These will multiplier by each other rather than add together, so the potential to hit really big wins are possible thanks to this.
Wild Frost Free Spins
3 or more Bonus Scatters are needed to trigger the Casino Bonus
- 3 Scatters – 8 Free Spins
- 4 Scatters – 10 Free Spins
- 5 Scatters – 15 Free Spins
- 6 Scatters – 20 Free Spins
In the bonus game on Crystal Prince Slot, all the rules that apply to the Base Game in terms of the Blizzard Seal and Wild Frost multipliers also apply here.
As an additional feature, a mix of 1 to 4 Wild Frost Multiplier Wilds and Wild Frost Wilds spawn at each Free Spin, giving you a better chance to get up to unlock the Blizzard seal.
To re-trigger, 2 additional Bonus Scatters are needed and will award 3 extra Free Spins.
There’s an option to buy the bonus on Crystal Prince Slot for players outside the UK, but this will come at 60x your selected stake.
Our Verdict
Crystal Prince Slot a light-hearted and fun slot to play, with a great theme and some decent features.
There’s a lot going on, from the Blizzard Seal to the mouthful that is Wild Frost Multiplier Wilds and regular Wild Frost Wilds, and all of them will help really open up the game and the potential it offers.
Of course, the main fun and biggest potential comes from the Wild Frost Free Spins, where reaching the Blizzard Seal to unlock even more Wilds is a dream that’s very much alive.
Overall, it’s not quite as good as Hammer of Vulcan, which is going to prove notoriously hard to top, but it’s a decent game with some good potential.
The max win possible on Crystal Prince Slot is 11,500x, which is pretty massive, and if you get anywhere near that then you’ll be in a great position for the holiday season that Crystal Prince Slot got you in the mood for.
Crystal Prince Slot will be available to play on selected desktop and Mobile Casinos on the 24th of November 2020.
