A Sherlock Holmes lookalike is starring in this slot. Yes, of course, it’s a lookalike as Play’n GO does not have the right to use his name. But, I guess the lambswool raincoat and cap look too familiar! The idea remains the same. If you can solve several clues (clues), you can land a massive win!

After Netent’s excellent Cash Noire release, Play’n GO couldn’t sit back. They also responded with a detective slot, Riddle Reels.
That’s the default max win for most Play’n GO slots these days. It’s not dizzyingly high anymore, but of course still an excellent win!
Software: Play’n GO
Number of paylines: 3 reels with 3 rows, 9 fixed paylines
RTP and variance: 96.22%, Medium variance
Maximum win: 5,000 x the bet or $€0.5 million
Betting range: $€0.10 – $€100
Bonus features: Mystery Feature, Bonus Feature
Casino Hipster verdict: Hot!
Riddle Reels has 3 reels with 3 rows of symbols and 9 fixed paylines.
The premium symbols are four suspects. You have:
The lower symbols are four murder weapons: a Pistol, a Sword, a Hammer and a Hangman Rope (noose).
You have three types of Wilds: a regular Wild, a x2 Wild and a x3 Wild.
3-or-kind of the regular Wilds gets you a win of 12x, but of the x2 Wilds, the win is 96x, and of the x3 Wilds, it’s a fantastic 324x.
The Scatter symbol is a Magnifying glass with a red question mark.
The main game is enriched with the Mystery Feature.
If you spin 2 Scatters, you get a free respin. It gets you a second chance to land the 3rd Scatter (which activates the Bonus Feature).
If you fail to land the 3rd Scatter, the two reels where the first 2 Scatters appeared, get 6 identical symbols.
If you’re lucky, you’ll have identical symbols (or wilds, with possible multipliers) on the other reel. In the best case, you have three wilds with x3 multipliers and 6 “blue” suspects. Then you bag a win of 324x (9x12x3=324).
You activate the Bonus Feature by spinning 3 Scatters. Now the fun begins. You have to solve the mystery and find out who the murderer is and what weapon is used.
Around the three reels, you’ll see a gameboard. You get four throws with a die. Besides, you get clues which you need to solve. If you do so correctly, you get extra free spins and additional advantages (e.g. symbols with all the same weapons or the same suspects), which increases your odds of making winning combos.
In the end, you’ll see how many clues you’ve solved. The level of difficulty also matters.
If you’ve solved everything successfully, you’ll get a Mega Spin to finish off. Now it’s announced who the suspect is OR what weapon the suspect has used. Often the Mega Spin guarantees a massive win, especially if there are Wilds with multipliers involved.
By the way, if you’ve solved almost all (but not all) clues correctly, you’ll still get chances to win the Mega Spin. You get to whirl the Clue Points Wheel (a blue compass). Your odds depend on how many clues you’ve solved.
The default RTP of Riddle Reels is 96.22%. However, there are versions with a lower RTP in circulation. Before playing, I recommend you to check the Riddle Reels game rules.
Play’n GO gives a score of 5 out of 10 for the variance. In other words, the variance is medium.
I expect that most top wins are around 500x the bet. A full screen with the x3 wilds and the highest symbol is good for 324x.
Other popular Play’n GO slots games with medium volatility are: Twisted Sister, Win-A-Beest and GEMiX.
Players who prefer gaming fun will enjoy this slot. The slot is original in terms of gameplay, and you can play for a long time with a limited bankroll.
If you’re looking for top wins and lack patience, you’d better skip this slot.
