It does seem a bit odd, to say the least, that a children’s television show character is the star of an online slot
It should be no surprise that slot developers often use famous movies, rock, or cartoon icons as themes for their slots. We have seen slots based on (cult) movies (Jumanji, Titanic), cartoon characters (Batman, The Flash) or rock n roll stars (Guns N’ Roses, Kiss, Michael Jackson).
The more famous the icon, the more curious people will get. Of course, you do need some extra budget to pay for those licensing fees.
We can only guess Play N Go had just enough funds to secure the licensing fee for Hugo, an obscure Scandinavian children’s cartoon character that is not known anywhere else. It does seem a bit odd, to say the least, that a children’s television show character is the star of an online slot.
It makes you wonder what will come next?
Hugo slot gameplay and features
Hugo is a straightforward and simple slot. Graphically, it has a cartoony and somewhat childish feel to it. There are 10 pay lines, and the Hugo symbol is wild. Any wild that is part of a winning combination doubles the payout.
This slot’s variance is low, and the theoretical return to player is a very reasonable 96.4%. These two factors combined make Hugo a perfect slot to grind through those pesky bonus wagering requirements.
The number of pay lines is not fixed, meaning you can play with anywhere between 1 and 10 pay lines. The minimum bet is $0.01 per spin – good news for the many low rollers amongst us. Of course, it is possible to stake more, should you do so. The maximum bet on the Hugo slot is $100 per spin.
Two different bonus features can be won with this slot. Sadly, both are not very original.
The Gold Mine bonus
Three scattered treasure chests on reels 1, 3 and 5 activate the Gold Mine bonus. Our friend Hugo is taken into the gold mine and opens doors, guided by you, of course.
Hidden behind the doors are extra credits or an angry crocodile. If you find the credits, you proceed to the next round. Find the croc, and the bonus ends. You can win up to 500x your total bet in the Gold Mine bonus.
The free spins bonus
Three scattered Afskylia the witch symbols award the player with a free spins bonus. You get to choose between 5, 10 or 15 free spins.
During these free spins, you will earn extra credits for every symbol of Hugo’s girl that shows up on the screen. This symbol only appears during the free spins bonus and is stacked as an added bonus.
The extra credit award per symbol corresponds with the number of free spins that you choose:
- 5 free spins: all extra symbols are worth 3x your total bet per spin
- 10 free spins: all extra symbols are worth 2x your total bet per spin
- 15 free spins: all extra symbols are worth 1x your total bet per spin
Free spins can be retriggered during the bonus.
Hugo: the verdict
Hugo is a slot that should suit the casual player best. It has a low variance, and the bonus games come quite often. You will not win massive amounts of money, but you will get a fair amount of playing time and, thus, value for money.
The cartoony graphics and somewhat tiresome antics of Hugo (he sometimes knocks on the screen and urges you to play) may not be for everyone. Still, we are confident that plenty of players will eventually grow to like this slot.
