Charlie Chance in Hell To Pay

Play’n GO’s Charlie Chance in Hell To Pay is an entertaining slot with a beautiful ’20s and ’30s theme

It reminds us of the great movies of that era.

When Casino Hipster was still in elementary school, you didn’t have all these YouTubers that made you laugh. Back then, you had a bit of TV, and we watched Laurel and Hardy and, of course, Charlie Chaplin.

Anyway, those images left an unforgettable impression.

Is the same thing going to happen when you play to this slot?

---

This slot certainly has something special: the theme, the great features, and yes, the stunning looks.

Play’n GO was inspired heavily by the 3-reel, land-based, movie-themed slots by WMS that include The Sopranos, Willy Wonka and The Lord of the Rings.

They have done a terrific job of borrowing the popular gameplay elements of those WMS slots and sprinkling their version with some of that famous Play’n GO magic sauce.

What’s more, if everything goes well, you can bag a massive win of no less than 6,666x the bet.

When you stake a hundred, you can take home almost 0.7 million. No doubt, you’ll remember this slot for a very long time!

Charlie Chance in Hell To Pay slot – Gameplay and Features

Charlie Chance has 3 reels with 3 symbols each and has 5 fixed paylines. For a theme like this, you don’t want to have an overwhelming slot to start with.

There are 9 symbols, 3 of which are premium symbols (the double BAR, the 666 symbol and the two bells). The four lower-tier symbols are the fruit symbols.

Furthermore, you have Wilds, possibly with multipliers of x2 and x3. These multiply with each other. So, for example, 2 Wilds, each with a multiplier of x3, gets you a total multiplier of x9.

How to activate the free spins?

You can see that some symbols have a flame at the top right corner of the symbols. If you spin 3 of those flames, you trigger the Feature Board.

At the Feature Board, you’ll see a femme fatale at the right side of the screen conjuring up a flame. There, she reveals how many steps Charlie Chance can take at the bottom of the screen.

He dances past several features, such as a:

• Cash prize
• Re-spin with random Wilds
• Win Spin, which is a free spin with a guaranteed winning combo
• Re-spin with a multiplier
• Free Spins

If our Charlie stops at the Free Spins feature, you get 8 free spins.

Free spins – enjoy the show!

The advantage of the free spins is that the Feature Board is triggered pretty often. It happens every time you spin three flames. But you can also save these, so you don’t necessarily need all three flames in 1 spin.

Yes, if you’re lucky, it’s going to rain features, and if you’re fortunate, you re-trigger the free spins more often. Every time you do, you get another 8 free spins.

Especially with the multipliers that some Wilds have, it can be very lucrative.

Payout percentage (RTP)

Charlie Chance’s default RTP is 96.23%.

Always check the game rules of this slot. Some online casinos offer this slot at a lower payout percentage.

The variance (volatility) of Charlie Chance is medium

According to Play’n GO, the variance of Charlie Chance is “medium.”

Based on that, I expect that most top prizes of Charlie Chance will be around 250x to 500x the bet. It is not hugely spectacular, but the odds are usually better.

You won’t land the maximum win of 6,666x the bet unless you press the spin button a few million times.

Other Play’n GO slots, with similar volatility, include Viking Runecraft, Sweet Alchemy or Fire Joker.
