This time we go further east, visit China and learn more about their old customs and objects used in various types of celebrations.
Whos the Bride by NetEnt is mainly inspired by Chinese wedding customs and of course, the main focus is on the bride herself.
Released in October 2019, it features 9 active paylines which are fixed on a standard 5x3 grid.
At first glance, there are many reasons for you to try out this slot, starting with the great visuals, excellent RTP and some decent features. Keep in mind that this is only the first impression, and we all know how wrong it can turn out to be.
Clearly, the provider is targeting the Eastern market with this title.
Theme
As in the majority of the games inspired by the Chinese tradition and culture, red is dominating the background.
This time, inspiration was not sought in the deities, glorious warriors or princesses from the East, but an ordinary bride and the whole story is based on Chinese wedding customs.
The list of symbols starts with the lowest value royals (10-A) that are made by simple drawing moves and look more distinctive than in other releases in which we meet them.
The items related to the Chinese wedding ceremony are the following on the paytable. We will encounter blue pot, pendants, ceremonial red shoes, jewelry boxes, and red carriage…
…which is the most lucrative and can award 1.000 coins for 5 of a kind landed.
Also, the bride behind the red curtain is the wild and gold ingot is the scatter.
Betting Options and Other Settings
This is definitely not one of those games where you will need a little fortune in order to participate.
The lowest available bet is set on 0.09 coins and if you want, you can set it up to 18 coins per strike…
…a real treat for all low-rollers!
The maximum win during the regular rounds is set on 1.500x bet, while in the free spins phase, thanks to multipliers, it can reach 3.000x bet.
Even though we are talking about high volatile installment, the great theoretical return to player (RTP) of 96.82% will increase your chances to get back some of the amounts invested.
Interface wise, on the sides of the spin button you will see autoplay options where you can select up to 1000 auto-spins and max bet button by which you will automatically select the highest available bet.
Worth mentioning is the fact that you will be able to play Whos the Bride on mobile devices too.
Features
Wild
Represented by the bride herself, it will replace any of the regular symbols (except scatters) in order to form winning combinations.
Also, land 5 of these and you will be awarded 1500 coins.
Free Spins
By landing 3, 4 or 5 scatter symbols you will activate this feature and you will be awarded 12 free spins. All of your winnings in this round are subject to 2x multiplier.
But wait, there’s more!
Scatter symbols are also paying a nice chunk of coins. Depending on a number of landed scatters you can get 4x, 25x, or 2500x your bet.
Also, there is a possibility to re-trigger this feature by getting at least 3 additional scatters during the initial free spins.
Sticky Wilds
For the duration of free spins all wilds landed will be locked in their places, again in order to increase your chances to form a winning combination.
If you succeed in landing sticky wild on every reel you will be awarded additional 5 free spins.
To Conclude
We hope that the ceremony went without any problems and that our bride will be more than happy in the future.
We all know that Chinese-themed games are not a rarity in the world of modern video slots, but NetEnt nevertheless managed to make Whos the Bride unique by its original choice.
If we take into account the maximum win and RTP, followed by the interesting Free Spins feature, we have a decent title that we must recommend to you.
