At Pinocchio slot symbols are meticulously crafted down to the last finite detail and it is Pinocchio who as the wooden puppet or as the human boy is the wild symbol and also the highest paying symbol providing punters with a decent 33.3x their wager for five of a kind. Pinocchio in the cage and the flyer symbol payout 23.3x players bet for five on a payline. The wood planer and the clock provide 10x bet for players when they land five of a kind. Playing card royal symbols 10 through to A are the lowest paying symbols earning players a maximum of 6.6x their total wager for five of a kind.
Gameplay gets really creative and interesting with the three different worlds that live in the Pinocchio slot game. The base game takes place in the studio space of Gepetto the woodcarver who created Pinocchio and this is called ´Workshop World´. Depending on which symbols players spin on the reels they can move into the ´Classroom world or the ´Stage World´. The animations here are seamless and quite extraordinary as the scenery moves and changes between the different worlds.
During the base game in the studio space the special symbols Wagon and Books can appear on reel 2 and 4. At the top of the gaming grid players can clearly see the red Stage meter on the left and the blue coloured Classroom meter on the right.
Every time players spin the special Wagon symbol will fill the red Stage meter and every time players spin the special Books symbol they fill the blue Classroom meter. If players are lucky to fill the meter with 10 symbols then they are transported to one of the other worlds. It is here that players receive 8 bonus spins every time a winning combination is made. With no winning spin the bonus spins will be counted down and when this happens players are moved back to Gepetto´s workspace Workshop World.
The Wild Scroll Feature is activated when players land the Gepetto symbol on reel 3 and this symbol acts as a wild symbol and will then walk across the reels right to left which provides a great animation touch. Every re-spin is free and can yield new payouts for players and players can trigger more than one Wild Scroll at a time here.
With the Books symbol on reel 1, 3 and 5 in the Classroom World players can activate the Wild Scroll feature and this wild moves this time from top to bottom over the reels. Again every re-spin is free and can yield wins. With Gepetto appearing on the middle reel in the Stage World the entire reel changes into the Wild Scroll wild reel and this reel remains wild for five bonus spins and players can enjoy the little dance Pinocchio performs here.
The Real Boy Mode feature is triggered when five symbols of a Real Boy appear which are in miniature size. These act as wilds and replace all the other symbols except for the scatters and the wagon and stage symbols. With five Wooden Boy symbols players can change the game to Wooden Boy mode and return to the base game.
Of note are the Fairy Awesome Re-spins when a magical fairy appears sprinkling some generosity as she provides players an extra re-spin for a second chance to make a winning combination.
Pinocchio slot game is fully mobile optimized so players can enjoy seamless play on the go from modern smartphones, tablet devices or from a desktop. Irrespective of screen size players can game from wherever and whenever from Android, iOS Apple or Samsung.
