Slingo Carnival — RTP, volatility and max win

Slingo Carnival from Gaming Realms brings the fairground to the reels, with a joker, a grinning devil, colourful balls and flowers in green and sky blue. Bonus icons send you to a prize wheel that decides between free spins, multipliers and a separate bonus game.

An open-air carnival sets the theme of Slingo Carnival: jesters and a joker, devil masks, balls in every colour and floral decorations. The Slingo part of the name points to the Gaming Realms series that blends slots with bingo. The grid is 5×3. Careful players can bet €0.10, high rollers up to €100, a wide spread. Slingo Carnival was released on February 15, 2018.

As Slingo Carnival pairs medium volatility with a fairly small max win, the page on volatility of inferno slots helps compare it with games that swing harder.

The game is played on a 5×3 field. Matching carnival symbols pay in the base game, but the bigger amounts mostly come from the bonus rounds. There is no wild in Slingo Carnival, so gaps in a combination are never filled. The bonus symbols matter most, because they are the route to the prize wheel and every special feature behind it.

The prize wheel is the heart of the game. Land enough bonus symbols and you spin it, and the result decides what happens next: a direct prize, a set of free spins or a trip to the separate bonus game.

Multipliers work inside the free spins and the bonus game and boost the wins of those rounds. Because almost every extra runs through the wheel, how often the bonus symbols appear shapes the whole flow of Slingo Carnival.

Since multipliers boost the wins in the free spins and bonus game of Slingo Carnival, the inferno slots with multipliers are the natural next comparison.
