Charlie’s Angels Slot by Atlantic Digital Free Demo and Review

Charlie’s Angels Review

Atlantic Digital still belong to the newest companies on the market, and the Charlie’s Angels online slot that we’ll take a look at in this review is actually one of their earliest releases. So, is it any good? Well, we’ll tell you all about it over the following lines, and there’s no better place to start than the game’s playing field, which is rather large and which offers as many as 6 reels, 4 rows and 4,096 ways to win!

The theme of Charlie’s Angels is loosely based on the popular movies of the same name, and there are indeed three charismatic female heroes that you can meet on the reels. The graphics have a pretty strong identity, and they are certainly pleasant enough to look at, though they aren’t cutting-edge or particularly great by any stretch of the imagination.

Charlie’s Angels Slot – Reels Screen

As for the slot’s mathematical model, it has a medium volatility level, and its top fixed jackpot is worth 1,000x your bet. The very least that you can risk is then £0.10, while high rollers can apparently risk up to £500 per spin at select online casinos. Unfortunately, the game’s theoretical RTP is only 94.05%, which is almost two percent below the current industry average.

Charlie’s Angels Slot Features

There are 10 pay symbols in Charlie’s Angels, and you can look forward to 4 low pays, 4 mid pays, and 3 high pays. First, there are your basic card ranks from Jacks to Aces, which can pay up to 1x your bet for a full combination. Next, there are shooting targets, old-school radios, and male characters, which are worth up to 4x your bet for a full set. And, of course, the game’s high pays show the three Charlie’s angels themselves, and these symbols pay up to 10x your bet for a six-of-a-kind combo.

In terms of special symbols, there are Wilds and Jackpot symbols in the mix. Wilds can appear on all reels except reels 1 and 6, while Jackpot symbols can show up only during free spins.

Charlie’s Angels Slot – Free Spins Feature

Let’s now move onto the slot’s gameplay, and we simply have to start by saying that the game includes Cascading Wins. Winning symbols are automatically removed and replaced with new ones, which allows you to get several wins during a single spin.

It’s also worth noting that the game does something rather interesting with its Wilds. There’s a Wild counter above each of the reels, and landing a Wild on a reel increases that counter by one. Get one of the counters to 3, and it will expand the current Wild to cover an entire reel. This Wild will then stay in place until it gets involved in a win or until you change your bet level.

There are no Scatter symbols in Charlie’s Angels, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t trigger any free spins. You can, but it’s somewhat tricky. You see, there’s the Bonus Bar present at all times, and you fill it by landing winning combinations of the slot’s high-paying symbols. Filling it entirely triggers the Free Spins feature, but be careful – your progress will be reset between spins, so you have to fill your bar in one go!

As for the Free Spins feature itself, you’ll always get to choose from 4 different modes. You can get 10 free spins with a 1x starting win multiplier, 7 free spins with a 4x starting win multiplier, 4 free spins with a 7x starting win multiplier, or a random combination of any of the above. During free spins, each Cascade improves your global win multiplier by +1x, and all Wilds automatically expand to cover entire reels. Retriggers are then possible as well, and you’ll get 3 extra free spins as a consolation prize if you don’t manage to win at least 10x your bet during the initial set of free spins.

Additionally, you can land Jackpot symbols during free spins, and there are 4 fixed jackpots available here. For a set of 3, 4, 5, or 6 Jackpot symbols, you’ll get a payout of 25x, 50x, 200x, or 1,000x your bet, respectively!

And, to round things off, you can use the Feature Buy option and simply buy a free spins trigger for 100x your bet.

Review Summary

Truth be told, Charlie’s Angels is an excellent online slot with one big flaw in its low theoretical RTP. We like its theme, and we are also big fans of its numerous gameplay features, but we unfortunately can’t give a general recommendation to a slot that has an RTP of 94.05%. Despite that, it’s clear that Atlantic Digital have a lot of potential, and we’re already looking forward to their next release!
