Lady In Red
Lady In Red
The wombat says: Does this game have anything to do with the famous Chris de Burgh song? We have no idea, but we do know that this Microgaming slot is based on a sexy cabaret singer in an old-fashioned jazz club. And this is the same company behind the Pinocchio’s Fortune slot! They have all sorts of games.
The Lady in Red is the solo singer, and the game’s graphics capture the ambience of a time when jazz was king, lounge singers sizzled and there was an abundance of glamour and glitz. But how will it play? Let’s fire it up and see! It’s a great looking vibrant game like Starscape: load it up!
Game Play
Lady In Red slot has 5 jazzy reels, with 3 rows and 25 pay-lines- a step up from the What a Hoot slot, another Microgaming game. Your sultry symbols on the reels include tumbler full of whisky, some red roses on a lipstick-stained napkin with a set of pearls, an entire jazz band mid-jam and the lovely Lady in Red herself having a good old warble at the microphone. Plus there are your standard playing cards 9, 10, J, Q, K & A that represent the lower value symbols.
The game’s Wild symbol is the ‘Lady in Red’ logo and it will double your cash payouts if it lands as part of any winning combination. It will also substitute for all symbols on the reels except for the Scatter symbol. And speaking of which, the Scatter symbol is the flashing paparazzi Camera. Make sure you look your best Wombat Fans!
Lady In Red Free Spins
Land 3x or more of the Camera symbol Scatters anywhere on the screen and you’ll get 15 free spins. Yeeeaaahhhh! If you managed to scoop 4x of the Camera Scatters you’ll be dished out 20 free spins, but if you landed all 5 Scatter symbols your reels will spin 25 times for free. It’s all too much…
But there’s more: During the round all your wins will be tripled too, hurrah! Thanks Microgaming. Any number of Free Spins are nice but scooping 25 of the critters really would be mega awesome, so we were pleased to find out that if you can land 3x more scatters again you’ll re-trigger the bonus.
Expert Mode
Need a cup of tea? Then use Microgaming’s Expert mode, which allows you to choose the ‘autoplay’ instead of having to click on the ‘spin’ button every 5 minutes. Just select how many times you want it to spin, whether you’d like it to stop after a certain amount of time or when hit a win of a certain amount. And don’t worry about missing out on your free spins Wombat Fans, if this feature is activated then the auto play function will stop and allow you to take over the dizzy business yourselves.
Conclusion
Lady in Red is pretty similar to many other Microgaming slots. It does have some decent payout potential which will attract many of you slot wizards, but for this wombat, the ‘wow’ factor just isn’t there. We would have liked a few more features, and the soundtrack can be a bit grating. Still, the slot is a bit the old side, so maybe it’s just time for a refresh! Try it and see.
Wombat score: 3/5
