ABOUT
Who said Vikings only consist of men? In Lucky, Grace and Charm by Pragmatic Play, you'll join the adventure of 3 Viking heroines through various slot machine features such as Multiplier Wilds, Mega Hold and Spin, and even more multipliers in the bonus round.
Betting Options and Bonus Features
In Lucky, Grace and Charm, you'll play on a 3x5 grid including only 10 paylines. Because of this, some lower-paying symbols and wilds only need a combination of 2 to pay out. Similar to most Pragmatic Play's games, the bet range begins at $0.1 to $250. But the RTP here is slightly higher than average at 96.71%.
The top symbols are Lucky, Grace and Charm themselves, paying 40-75 times the stakes; and players have the potential to win up to 10,000x per spin. However, wins in this slot won't come too often because of its 5/5 volatility.
The wild symbol appears as Viking ships, which will instantly boost any win it participates in with a 2x multiplier. This feature doesn't apply to a line of 5 wilds, but the prize of that is already more than satisfying at 900x the bet.
The base game in Lucky, Grace and Charm takes an exciting turn as players realize there are money symbols (gold and silver coins) on the reels. Landing 5+ of them and you'll trigger the Hold and Spin feature. Then, the money symbols will be locked in place while you respin the rest 4 times. Any new money symbol that lands will also be locked in and the respins reset to 4.
What's more, as soon as you fill the whole grid with coins, the game will unlock 2 extra rows to increase the chances for more coins to appear. And landing gold star symbols will grant you a random multiplier of 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x or 10x to your total win up to that point. Hold and Spin is over when you run out of respins, and all the values on the money symbols will be added together.
Regarding the bound round, land 3, 4 or 5 shield bonus symbols to receive 12 free spins along with 5x, 20x or 500x stakes respectively. The rule of the bonus game is quite straightforward: all wins are multiplied by 3 while wins with wild symbols get a 6x multiplier. Unlimited triggers are also available when you land 3+ more scatters to gain 12 bonus spins.
Roshtein's Take
The graphics in Lucky, Grace and Charm are quite tacky and leave a lot to be desired, while the 'special' Hold and Spin feature is just a classic respins branded differently. The free spins round follow the same unoriginal path with no change in the gameplay, which is very disappointing considering the game has an epic theme.
That being said, not everything is bad in this slot. The spins don't feel too scripted and it pays pretty well for a slot with only 10,000x max win. In that sense, Lucky, Grace and Charm is not a horrible slot but there are better Viking slots out there.
