Personal testers’ opinion about Gothic slot
While we try to write independent reviews here on our BNC site, we could not agree with too much of our own emotions (inside our team) if this slot is bad or extremely bad. Sorry Microgaming / Genesis, but it needs improvement in every aspect.
- For a game developed and released around 2014, this is one unremarkable qua graphics presentation.
- There is some atmosphere created, but all seems incomplete as there is no specificity of the symbols, nor there is a story to think of while playing.
- As for the melody and overall sounds of the Gothic Microgaming – instead of contributing, they additionally topple the impression, being only an annoying addendum that no one slot released after 2010 should have.
- Regarding RTP, this is one of the slots with a poor theoretical return of 95.5%, which is under the industry guideline (between 96 and 97%) – a fact, certainly caught by the players, as the slot is super unpopular despite being only a few years old (with a slot rank of below 7500).
- We should better play, for example, Bust the Bank (2013) or Fish Party (2014) – both from Microgaming, also 243 win ways, and Medium Volatility slots (with 96.75% and 96% RTP respectively), and both being more entertaining and generous to the players.
- Or if we are only in the grim and ominous mood and no other type of slot should do for us today – we launch the Blood Queen from Iron Dog Studio or the Halloween Jack from NetEnt.
- At Microgaming’s Gothic slot machine, there is no Free Spin feature; there are no multipliers special Wild features (Expanding Wilds, Sticky Wilds, and Walking Wilds). The only feature is the Pick and Click bonus game – which is supposed to be the main attraction of the slot. Instead is one plain, boring, unrelated to the gothic theme ‘side gig’, which often doesn’t deliver large payouts.
- All things considered, the Gothic slot is a game, which we don’t recommend to the bonus hunters nor players with real deposits.
