Sherlock Bones Slot Review
Electric Elephant brings you one of its most exciting games yet. The company’s partnership with Relax Gaming proved fruitful since the final product proved to be an immaculate slot filled with mystery and exciting features. Let’s check it out!
Kicking things off with the aesthetic part of the game, the plot takes place in Victorian London but instead of getting a view of the city, we are transported a bit upwards so that only the rooftops of the buildings are visible. Following the same style, the reel set features a steampunk theme which is also found in a special area located at the lower part of the interface. The logo of the game, as well as the “Rolling Respins” tagline, can be both found on the left side of the screen.
For the most part, the slot operates like any other classic title. That is, the reels start spinning simultaneously and come to rest individually in consecutive order. The gameplay is enhanced by expanding wild symbols and respins which we’ll tackle later on.
Mystery-themed slots have been particularly popular over the last few years due to the increased exposure they gained through modern culture. If you want to check out some titles similar to the one in question then we recommend trying Sherlock A Scandal in Bohemia by Tom Horn Gaming as well as Sherlock of London by Rabcat. For now, let’s take a closer look at Sherlock Bones!
How to Play Sherlock Bones
The game consists of 3-7 rows and 5 reels with 243 – 16,807 paylines. The controls are located at the right side of the screen allowing you to adjust the bet size, enable the autoplay function, mute the sounds, spin, or enter the in-game menu for further information regarding the game’s rules.
Sherlock Bones features 5 low paying and 2 high paying symbols. The first come in the form of card values K-A as well as a smoking pipe, a magnifying glass, and a paw print while the most rewarding symbols are represented by doctor Watson and Moriarty in dog and cat forms respectively.
The slot’s special symbol is:
- Wild – Represented by Sherlock Bones himself, the wild will substitute for all other symbols to form or improve upon winning combinations.
- Bone – A special symbol that can only appear in the bonus row located underneath the main reel set.
Game Rules
Sherlock Bones Features
We always want to be honest with you so we believe it’s fair to say that the gameplay is quite repetitive. Still, as you are about to see it can be extremely rewarding. Let’s find out why!
This bonus reel will be unlocked whenever a wild symbol lands anywhere on the reels. The bonus reel will then start to spin. If a bone symbol lands underneath the wild, the latter will expand to cover the entire reel turning into a sticky wild reel awarding the Rolling Respins feature.
During the feature, players are awarded respins until a win is achieved. After each win during the feature, all sticky wilds will walk to the next reel towards the left and an extra row will be added to the top of the reels increasing the number of potential winning lines. Up to 4 additional rows can be added.
If during one of the respins, a wild lands on the reels and a bone symbol stops right below it then an additional sticky wild will be won. This can happen any number of times since the Rolling Respins feature will continue until there aren’t any sticky wilds remaining on the reel set.
If, however, a bone doesn’t land below the wild symbol, then the wild will expand upwards but won’t stick in place thus not activating the feature.
