Sherlock and Moriarty Wowpot Bonus Features

Although the game mainly focuses on the progressive jackpots that it has on offer, it still throws in a few video slot features into the mix to keep your spins interesting while waiting for the jackpot to land.

Wilds

The golden Wild symbol steps in to substitute itself for any paying symbols that can achieve a winning combo. 5 of these tokens on a payline will also award you with a x10 win of your chosen stake.

Scatter Symbol

As Sherlock’s greatest nemesis, Moriarty takes on the role of the Scatter symbol. A minimum of 3 are needed to unlock 10 Free Spins and any additional Scatters will unlock an additional 2 Free Spins each.

Free Spins

Once Free Spins are triggered, players are entitled to a minimum of 10 bonus rounds with additional rounds added on depending on the number of Scatter symbols in play. Unique to the Free Spins segment is the Triple Mystery symbol that can randomly land and trigger one of the following bonuses:

• Sticky Wild: A Wild symbol that remains stuck to the reels for the duration of the bonus rounds
• +1 Multiplier: Increases the overall multiplier by +1
• +Spins: Increases the bonus round counter by 1, 2 or even 3

Mystery Symbols

The Mystery symbol lands in the base game, offering varying results based on the number present on screen. 4 or less will turn all of the Mystery symbols into the same random paying symbol. 5 or more will trigger the Mystery Re-spins feature.

During this bonus round, all triggering Mystery symbols and Wild symbols stick to the reels. The remaining positions on the reels will re-spin, with any new Mystery symbols and Wilds sticking to the reels as well. The re-spins continue until no sticky symbols land, at which point players are offered a final spin, where all sticky symbols turn into the same random, paying symbol.

Sherlock and Moriarty Wowpot Jackpot

The main feature in the game, the Wowpot is a progressive jackpot, offering players 4 tiers to look out for.

• Mini – Starts at £10
• Minor – Starts at £100
• Major – Starts at £50,000
• WOWpot – Starts at £2,000,000

These progressive jackpots are presented on a classic jackpot wheel and, if you reach this round, you are guaranteed to win one of the four pots in play.

RTP & Volatility

Although the progressive jackpots offer the chance for some serious rewards, Sherlock and Moriarty’s math model paints a different picture. The medium volatility setting and incredibly low return to player rate of 92.1% fall quite short in terms of the overall slot’s potential. However, there are some more slots that you can explore on our list of highest RTP slots and try your luck for even bigger winnings.
