For auld lang syne, my dear
For auld lang syne,
We’ll tak a cup o’ kindness yet
For auld lang syne!
Most of us are familiar with these touching lines and the first association that comes to mind is – Scotland. And thinking about this exciting land, where history and nature have produced an ever-intriguing concoction that never ceases to amaze, what else comes to mind? Well, bagpipes, men in kilts, and the monster of Loch Ness, of course!
And this latest association is the theme of a great RTG title dubbed “Loch Ness Loot”. Always wanted to see what ole’ Nessie looked like? Prepare for quite a shock, as it’s as adorable as it gets!
“Loch Ness Loot” Characteristics
We’re used to seeing loads of funny titles from RTG, and this 5-reel, 25-payline slot is no exception. It shows Lochie as a lovable mixture of a dragon and a dinosaur which burps Loch Ness bubbles whenever it appears on the reels. There are also terrified villagers, bombastic newspaper headlines, blurry pictures showing Lochie, as well as the standard poker symbols. Upon each win supported by the Lochie symbol, you’ll hear traditional Scottish music in the background, which further contributes to the overall highlander atmosphere.
But these are not the only entertaining factors in the game – “Loch Ness Loot” also introduces a number of special features that make the game even more attractive. These include wilds, scatters, free spins with multipliers and the much favored Win-Win feature.
What some may find against this otherwise excellent release is the fact that it mostly targets low to medium rollers, so super-highrollers who only play extremely high stakes will probably be a bit irritated by this detail. However, with coin amounts ranging from 1 cent to $1, “Loch Ness Loot” covers most player types, and gives them all an equal opportunity to win one of the two random jackpots – Minor and Major.
Special Features
With such an unusual and entertaining theme and graphics, “Loch Ness Loot” would be a success even if it weren’t for its special features. Probably the best one to get is the Lochie wild, which appears quite often and replaces not only regular symbols, but scatters as well. This is an excellent thing because scatters pay and trigger the free spins feature only from left to right, so such help by Lochie is much appreciated.
As for the free spins themselves, they are activated by 3, 4, or 5 loot scatters, for which you get 8 free spins with a 2x multiplier. What’s good about this feature is that it can be retriggered. And even if you don’t manage to scoop a big win in it, you can always look forward to the Win-Win feature (if you’ve played on all 25 lines, that is). It is triggered at the end of the free spins if your win during these is 8x your bet or less and gives you a chance to win up to 150x the bet.
Conclusion:
It is great to see another amazing title by RTG, not only because of its overall generosity, but also because it is a game that will brighten your day and make it better even if you don’t take any significant sums on it.
