Personal testers’ opinion about The Twisted Circus slot
The Twisted Circus online slot doesn’t shine with impeccable visuals and audio work. The symbols are not fabulous (just standard) regarding graphical execution. You can understand that this is an old game just by looking at 2 of the symbols. A bearded lady that belonged to the circus! When was that exactly? O, ya long ago. Years before the Austrian singer Thomas/Conchita won the Eurovision Song Contest 2014, and a half-man/ half-woman was something of a freak show, forbidden taboo or extraordinary.- Anyway, the design is too ornamental for our liking. The gameplay can be labelled as unpredictable, ticklish, a little crazy, but still engaging and fun as a circus is supposed to be. The paytable is tight, close to poor, again as a provision of 243-liner is supposed to be. With Scatter that pays the common 100x the total bet, Wild provides 25x the total bet, but OK, it does triples the payouts when substitutes. The rest of the symbols pay for 5OAK: from 8.33x (the Fire-Man) to 2.33x (the Accordion-Monkey), the total bet.
- So, 1) the potential of the game is theoretically sparse (for a medium variance game), 2) the paytable is stingy (on paper), and 3) in reality, with its payouts, the slot didn’t make a profound impact on us. So 3x thumbs down for this circus – moneywise.
- Our maximum win during testing was just 62x the total bet, and in most of the other sessions, we were almost broke. With a median bonus round result of approximately 29x the total bet, we wanted to close the game quickly as the Free Spins ended. Plus, they didn’t come around frequently enough – only in about 159 spins, period. So be prepared, and you cannot make a habit of massive regular payoffs here.
We would only convey neutral recommendations for playing at this slot with real credits and with bonus money, despite the plenty of returns stocked up in the game (according to the developers). Still, if you are persistent to bet here, regardless of the stake you pick, always protect yourself with a bankroll for a minimum of 150 spins, and leave once you score big at the bonus. The Twisted Circus can be bounteous at times, but you need persistence (invariable bet size) to secure some decent win.
