Sirens’ Riches Slot Review 2024

Sirens are something of an enigma in the world of online slots. Not the big, bleeping, flashy types that activate to warn you of impending danger, but the mythological half-mermaid, half-female creations that splash about the high seas.

Typically portrayed as either sultry, alluring creatures or as cunning honeytraps harboring much darker intentions, but almost always add a layer of mystery and intrigue to proceedings.

Thankfully for armchair seafarers, the ones showcased inside this polished production from industry stalwart Red Tiger possess a more benevolent side and represent your pathway to riches scaling as high as 22,307x your wager should you catch them on a good day.

Sirens’ Riches Base Game and Features

Sirens’ Riches sparkles with characteristically exquisite artwork, presenting a dark, moody atmosphere accentuated by foreboding clouds overhanging some secluded cove where a ship looks to have come adrift. A pair of sirens flanks the 5-reel, 4-row game panel covered in 50 pay lines, with winning symbols falling left to right from reel 1 onwards.

Players are supplied 5 low pays to grapple with, depicted by mollusks in various colours, while Red Tiger has plumped for a gun, a lantern, an anchor, a steering wheel, and a treasure chest to act as the highs. Highly volatile, wins worth 20x the bet is the most you can expect from 5-of-a-kind premium wins. Paying 100x the stake for a winning line of 5 symbols and also replacing other regular symbols is the game’s W-bearing Wild symbol.

Super Wild Symbol

In addition to the regular Wild is the Siren Queen, cast as the Super Wild. Landing four rows in height, the Siren Queen appears on every 15th spin, bringing with her a multiplier value of 2x, 3x, or 5x.

The Nobleman

Showing up exclusively on the middle reel, The Nobleman gets collected on a Progress Bar situated to the right of the reels every time he lands during a 14-spin sequence, paving the way for the Siren’s Treasure to come into play on the 15th spin. Note that The Nobleman does not contribute to any winning ways.

Siren’s Treasure

The role of The Nobleman gets all the more noble during the headline Siren’s Treasure round.

Played in 15-spin cycles, The Nobleman’s essence is used whenever time he lands and gets duly seduced by a siren, resulting in one upgrade on the Progress Bar.

Rewards are saved at every second step, with your benefit paid out on the 15th spin depending on your current Step level at that moment, as follows:

• Step 2: 2 Wilds are guaranteed to land.
• Step 4: 1 Wild is added, guaranteeing 3 Wilds in total.
• Step 6: The Siren Queen is guaranteed to land.
• Step 8: The Siren Queen is guaranteed to land carrying a 2x multiplier.
• Step 10: The Siren Queen is guaranteed to land carrying a 3x multiplier and 1 respin is awarded.
• Step 12: The Siren Queen is guaranteed to land carrying a 5x multiplier, 2 respins are awarded in total and 3 more Wilds are introduced. 
• Step 14: A win worth 3,000x the stake is bolted onto all the other rewards.

Sirens’ Riches: Our Verdict

Red Tiger Gaming’s decision to weave a cycle-focused mechanism into the game’s key features was an interesting one. Fabulous when things are going well, especially when multiple The Nobleman symbols land in a 14-spin cycle to set up the Siren’s Treasure with some handsome rewards in store. Less so when you burn through a batch of dead spins with little to show for your efforts. But hey, that’s the nature of slots – especially high-variance beasts such as this.

Slot games of a cyclical nature aren’t overly common, but nor are they quite as rare as hen’s teeth. Some may go for this particular style of gaming, others are likely to be turned off just as fast.

But whichever way you spin it, Red Tiger’s move represents a refreshing, some would argue bold change, with further brownie points awarded for the game’s supremely polished design – nothing less than we have come to expect from a provider of this esteem.

Topped by a considerable top payout of 22,307x the stake (admit it, who saw that coming?), there is multi-faceted gaming on show here for players into a bit of mythology, or those with a soft spot for the alluring creatures at the heart of the action.
