Queenie was a popular girls name in Victorian Britain, particularly in the East End of London and is sometimes used 7️⃣ as a chummy, affectionate version of the word 'Queen'. In today's review, it refers to one of the most eccentric 7️⃣ characters in Lewis Carrol's tale Alice in Wonderland, the Queen of Hearts. This Queen of Hearts is no stranger to 7️⃣ the reels, having starred in numerous slots before now. This one is brought to us by Pragmatic Play and partner 7️⃣ Wild Streak Gaming and gives players a moodier representation of the infamous Queen alongside such extras as a feature wheel, 7️⃣ jackpots, plus free spins.
Wild Streak Gaming slots tend to have a dated look about them, and Queenie is no exception. 7️⃣ It has a similar look and feel to other games of theirs we've crossed, Gold Party being one example that 7️⃣ came to mind. If they're built to look this way on purpose or not, who can say, but the graphics 7️⃣ will probably turn prospective players on or off within moments. If you like games to appear older before their time, 7️⃣ then Queenie may well delight. However, if you prefer a more contemporary look, then Queenie may well struggle to catch 7️⃣ your eye. The same goes for Queenie's gameplay too, which shares the same dated feel.
Lifting the curtain on the machine 7️⃣ driving the show, we find a highly volatile math model, producing a theoretical return to player value of 96.51%. Playable 7️⃣ on any device, the action happens on a 5-reel, 3-row game panel, which provides 243 ways to win. Stakes range 7️⃣ from 25 p/c toR$/€125 per spin and comes with a feature buy function to skip the base game - where 7️⃣ available.
Starting from the leftmost reel, matching symbols pay left to right, and need at least three of a kind to 7️⃣ do so. For the low paying lot, we get 9-A card ranks, possessing the same value of 1x the bet 7️⃣ for five of a kind. Moving on to the premiums, there are pocket watches, crowns, top hats, the Rabbit character, 7️⃣ and the Queen of Hearts paying out 2-10x the bet for five of a kind. The big red heart symbol 7️⃣ is the wild and appears on reels 2, 3, or 4. One thing it does is substitute for all other 7️⃣ symbols, while its secondary function is to occasionally trigger the wheel feature.
