Carnaval Forever

Players on the lookout for the best video slots won’t want to miss out on Carnaval Forever, the revelry title released by Valletta-based BetSoft Gaming.

The hedonistic energy of Carnaval in Rio infuses every element of gameplay here, right down to the casino bonus features: Free Spins, where wins are guaranteed, and Buy Bonus, where 10 freebies can be purchased at any time.

Theme

Thanks to BetSoft, it’s party time in Rio! There’s no longer any need to travel to Brazil to experience this one-of-a-kind thrill.

The ambience is simply irresistible here. Bright lights are everywhere, the stars are shining above, and fireworks are going off both on and off the reels. The gaming soundtrack is downright infectious with its features big brass, drum-lines, and whistles.

Gaming symbols include four breathtaking ladies clad in bright Carnaval garb, as well as the Carnaval King and the playing card values ace through ten.

A rainbow-colored stage, with a dancer in silhouette, acts as wild – this symbol substitutes for others to form wins while offering base play’s top payout of 100x for five-of-a-kind.

This title’s most gaming important symbol, however…

… is the glamorous Carnaval Queen. This feather-clad beauty acts as scatter, triggering free spins with wins guaranteed!

Betting Options and Functions

There are 10 fixed paylines, all paying from left to right. Overall per-spin bet is set simply from 0.10 – 100.00 times the betting currency. Autoplay is available for up to 100 spins, though players should exercise caution, as there are no win/loss limits available.

Player options, payline information, game rules, and more are available via an expanding menu at the lower left corner of the game screen. The overall theoretical return to player ratio is above-average at 96.22, increasing to 96.63% with the Buy Bonus feature.
