About Dark Carnivale
BF Games are the geniuses behind the Dark Carnivale slot. Casino players will find all manner of scary slots online, and for the most part, they are all loosely based on Halloween. However, Dark Carnivale offers something different. Here, BF Games is offering you the chance to play a circus themed slot, albeit one that features a circus unlike any other. Think terrifying clowns and nasty unicorns, knife-wielding bears, and you’ll have the idea. Dark Carnivale features an RTP of 96.15%, and there’s nothing wrong with that. The BF developed slot also has a maximum win of 1,000x your bet, and we’re not huge fans of that. Given the potential wagering range, we’d expect better prizes in this game. A five-reel, twenty-line slot, Dark Carnivale can cost up to 200.00 a spin.
Special Features
Most of the symbols that appear in this game are thematic. There are one or two exceptions – namely Queens, Kings, and Aces. Save for those; symbols include terrifying orbs and devilish dames. Dark Carnivale also features a wild symbol in the shape of a glowing carriage. This bizarre symbol is a lot less menacing than some of the other symbols you may come across. For instance, wilds can substitute for all symbols save for big tops.
Those big top symbols are scatters and can only appear on the first, third and fifth reels. They have the potential to trigger a free spin bonus round when they spring up. Don’t get too exciting, though. There is much to discuss when it comes to Dark Carnivale’s bonus round.
Bonus Feature
The only bonus feature in this slot is a free spin bonus round. We like to think that Dark Carnivale’s bonus round works in much the same way as free spin bonuses in so-called “book slots”, much like Play ‘n Go’s Rich Wilde and the Book of Dead, Novomatic’s Book of Ra, and more. In short, once the bonus begins, you’ll receive a total of 12 free games. During the round, there is a stacked wild symbol that helps you land wins. That’s about all there is to the round, really.
Dark Carnivale is a slot machine which looks a dozen times better than it plays. If you’re into graphics and epic themes, then this BF Games developed slot will tick your boxes. However, in terms of gameplay, there are more than a few things missing from this release.
