Ever felt like playing a little Robbin Hood? Well, now is your chance with Barcrest’s online slot game Merry Money. This superb offering provides high quality visuals and an equally high quality overall gaming experience. Once the game loads you will find yourself in the woods, surrounded by densely growing trees and bushes. Right in the middle of all of this greenery is the reels with their bright and shiny symbols. We meant that literally, by the way, the symbols genuinely are very colorful and they sparkle, too. They include the lower value playing card icons A, K, Q, J and 10; all boasting a lovely design. Besides these there are also the game logo and a pair of special symbols.

As for the layout, there’s hardly anything unusual about it. It features your regular 5 reels and 3 rows, with a total of only 10 paylines. The paylines are fixed so there will be no chance to regulate them. Stakes are within the usual range for this developer though, with the minimum bet setting you back only some 10p per single spin, and the maximum possible wager amount being £500 per spin.

Where to Play

Special Features

Pick Me

Though you can’t tell at first, Merry Money actually comes with a whole bunch of fun special features. The simplest of these is the Pick Me Feature. To trigger it, look out for 3 of the Pick Bonus symbols on the reels. Once you’ve done that, you will need to select one of these three symbols to reveal your cash prize.

Wild

The Wild symbol in this game substitutes for all of the other symbols apart from the two Bonus symbols. It doesn’t offer any payouts of its own, but it’s a welcome helping hand when creating winning combos. The Wild can also land pretty much anywhere on the reels and at any point during gameplay.

Win Spins & Hall of Plenty

Look out for the Robin Hood symbol – it’s the second Bonus symbol around these parts. It can trigger not one but two different special features. Once you have landed 3 of these symbols this will trigger the Target Bonus, and here players will get the chance to fire an arrow at a target. If you hit the yellow area you will activate the Hall of Plenty feature, if you hit the red spot then you will enter the Win Spins feature.

Win Spins: Before the free spins actually begin, you will have to pass the trail of Win Spins. This will determine exactly how many win spins you will receive.

Hall of Plenty: Once you have entered the Hall of Plenty, you will have 6 doors to choose from. The door that you pick will reveal a treasure, and Robin Hood will have to sneak it out. The game will continue with you selecting doors and the main character stealing the treasure until the Sheriff wakes up. Then he will summon his guards and the game will be over, and you will collect the end prize. Sorry Robin.

Verdict

Merry Money is loads of fun without a doubt. It offers interactive bonus features that are nicely interwoven with the theme, and in addition it’s a medium variance title that lets you trigger the special features at relatively frequent intervals.
