Play’n Go took a break from releasing themed-slots since the release of Ring of Odin video slot a month ago. But the short hiatus is over, and Play’n Go is back with more innovative elements in mind. Charlie Chance in Hell to Pay, a cartoon retro-style video slot, is now available at the developer’s platform and partner casinos.
CEO Johan Törnqvist introduced the game to the public via the Play’n Go website. In an official press release, Törnqvist said:
“Charlie Chance in Hell to Pay offers a lot to the slot market. It’s a simple game with lots of fun features and great animations to delight and entertain players. It is a perfect merging of the classic fruit machine experience and more modern mechanics and gameplay. [It presents] the ideal opportunity for older and newer generations of players to get an experience of each other’s worlds while still enjoying their own.”
Gameplay And Theme
Charlie Chance in Hell to Pay takes players into the world of modern-age animation while paying tribute to classic black-and-white animated films. The character of Charlie Chance is inspired by the works of Max Fleischer, the pioneer of modern animation, and classic characters like Betty Boop and Popeye. The game itself is in the style of an old hand-drawn cartoon.
With classic films as reference, Play’n Go made use of the traditional fruit machine game format and symbols to bring on pure nostalgia. Charlie Chance in Hell to Pay has 3 reels, 3 rows, and 5 paylines. The game carries a default RTP of 96.23% and a medium-volatility gameplay.
Charlie Chance himself leads the lineup of characters and symbols. Another high-paying symbol is the horned woman that Charlie Chance offended in the story. The medium-paying symbols that can help hit winning combinations are bars, triple sixes, and hell’s bells. The low-paying symbols are cartoonized versions of fruit symbols in classic Bitcoin slots such as cherries, lemons, apples, and grapes.
Bonus Features
Wild Multiplier – the wild symbol can replace all regular symbols and can appear as x2 and x3 multipliers.
Feature Board – landing three-horned female symbols triggers the feature board, which gives players a chance to random bonuses such as cash prizes, respins, win spins, and free spins.
