The legend of Robin Hood is a well trodden one and there are various online slots already themed on this legendary character; one more is always welcome though and here we have Hood, a game developed in-house by Betsson and featuring a number of themed bonuses.
Hood is a five reel slot with three rows and twenty fixed paylines; those reels spin against a distant view of Nottingham castle just visible through the leaves and trees of Sherwood Forest.
The higher value symbols include Maid Marion, Friar Tuck, Will Scarlet, Little John, a bow and arrow and the castle; playing card symbols make up the lower values.
The wild is a golden ‘Wild’ and this will substitute for all others to help form winning combinations except for the treasure chest and the Robin’s Riches scatter symbols.
Bonus Features
Robin’s Riches
This is triggered by landing three of the Robin’s Riches scatter symbols anywhere on reels one, three and five; you’ll now get a spin of the Wheel of Fortune which will determine which of the following features are awarded:
- Free Spins – awards the number of spins shown on the wheel segment.
- Rich Pickings – awards a picking round in which you must select from three barrels for a cash prize, an arrow to the next, riskier row or a guard who will end the feature.
- King’s Ransom/Super King’s Ransom – awards a ‘Deal or no Deal’ type game in which you must accept an offer or continue to the next round if you’re feeling lucky. The Super King’s Ransom is similar but with higher prize values.
Treasure Chest
The Treasure Chest appears only on reel five and when it does it will a prize of between 60 and 450 coins.
Stacked Characters
Maid Marion and Friar Tuck can appear stacked on reels two and four and if one of them does so you’ll win 1000 coins.
Reel Modifiers
On any losing spin in the base game, one of the following mini-features may be awarded:
- Reel Crazy – awards a guaranteed winning spin.
- Reel Blast – a third Robin’s Riches scatter may be added to reel five if two are already in view on reels one and three.
- Target Practice – the reels will be covered in targets and rearranged into a winning combination.
Verdict
We’ve enjoyed playing Hood with it’s intricate, detailed graphics and numerous bonus features; it’s a slot in which there’s always something happening and a win seems to be just around the corner. It comes with a nice, high RTP of 97.38%.
