Romeo and Juliet

In a regular game in Romeo and Juliet, everything is quite standard: five reels, three rows, combinations are formed from left to right. But you won't be bored here, because Wilds can randomly appear on the reels, which are glued together, increasing the chance of catching a win. Plus, a random chip can be activated at any time during the base game - this is when one of the main symbols unfolds and covers several positions, which helps to pull out even a weak spin into a normal spin.

There are two bonus features in this slot, and both can be considered full-fledged. The first bonus is Free Spins, which are triggered when three Scatter symbols appear. There is a special mechanic in the bonus round: Wilds start moving on the reels, and if they meet, they turn neighbouring symbols into additional Wilds. The second feature is the Romeo and Juliet Bonus, where only certain symbols appear on the screen, and each spin brings a chance to win big.

If the casino has a Bonus Buy feature, then you can buy Free Spins for a fixed amount (usually 100x the bet), but not all versions of the slot have this option - it depends on the platform and country.

The symbols here fully correspond to the theme: Romeo, Juliet, ring, rose and a couple of neutral card values. The most valuable, of course, are Romeo and Juliet - five of them pay well on the line. Wild replaces any regular symbols and helps to close combinations. Scatter is responsible for triggering Free Spins. There is also an interesting feature: top payouts can be caught on a line of five identical symbols with the participation of Wilds, and average winnings are supported by frequent combinations of card icons. Thus, small winnings are often found here, and large ones are needed for a real skid.

The max win is claimed to be around 1,000x the stake. To catch it, you need a full line of top symbols with Wilds during bonus spins, especially if the Wilds begin to "merge" with each other. In practice, of course, such drifts don't come up often, and the average bonus usually gives between 30x and 100x the bet if you're lucky with the number of Wilds. The volatility of the slot is average, so the "hands" can be both boring and cheerful depending on the session.

The graphics in Romeo and Juliet are really nice – the colours are warm, the backgrounds are not annoying, and the symbols are drawn neatly. The visuals here are not ultra-modern, but they do not smack of "old school" either. The music is calm, relaxed, the animations are smooth — there is no feeling that something is pressing on you or distracting you from the game. On PC and mobile, everything works without glitches, loading is fast.

This slot is more for those who are tired of overly complex mechanics, but do not want to return to the primitive "fruity" classics. It will suit players who care about the atmosphere and familiar themes, as well as those who like frequent, but not very large winnings. High rollers may lack potential, but fans of a leisurely game are just right.

The RTP of the slot is standard for Pragmatic Play - usually 96.0%, but be sure to check this figure in each casino, because it can be reduced (in some versions it can be 95%, and even lower). Volatility is average, so there is no point in chasing a large risk here — it is better to choose a comfortable bet so that it is enough for a long session. I do not advise using auto-spins without control, you should buy a bonus only if your bankroll allows you not to get upset from a couple of unsuccessful attempts.
