If the background music of an Indian restaurant is attractive to you then we may just have an online slot to fulfil your needs. This particular game is called The Snake Charmer, it’s from Nextgen Gaming and it revolves around the world of that traveling showman whose parlour trick is to tempt a snake from a basket.
The Snake Charmer plays out over five reels, three rows and up to twenty five paylines. The reels spin on what looks like a smartphone in landscape mode, balancing on five snake baskets; behind this odd construction we can see the Taj Mahal reflected in a yellow lake. The Snake Charmer himself dozes on top of the reels during what is clearly a warm Indian evening.
The high value symbols in the base game include the Charmer’s musical pipe, the snake basket, an elephant and a dancing girl. Lower values are the usual 9, 10, J, Q, K and A.
The wild symbol is represented by the snake himself and worth 5000x your line stake for five on an active payline. The Charmer is the scatter symbols which activates the main feature.
Bonus Features
Free Spins
Ten free spins can be yours for the taking and to earn them you will need to land three of more of the Snake Charmer scatter symbols anywhere in view.
There’s no multiplier at work here but there’s a chance that the wild snake symbols may appear; if it does it will expand to fill all positions on that reel. Unfortunately it’s not possible to re-trigger the spins from within this feature.
Gamble Feature
If you want to undertake some extra wagering then just click the ‘Gamble’ button below the reels after any win. You can now try to double or quadruple your win by predicting the colour or suit of the next card drawn. You can gamble up to five times but an incorrect guess will lose everything.
The Snake Charmer Online Slot Playing Tips
We would always advise avoiding the gamble feature – it’s the quick way to deplete your bankroll.
Verdict
There’s nothing very revolutionary about The Snake Charmer but it is strangely playable, just not for very long. There’s a reasonable RTP of 95.346%.
