Butterfly Charms Review
Booming Games have a very nice catalog of online slots already, and it seems to us that they aren’t willing to stop just yet. So, without further ado, let’s dive into their Butterfly Charms online slot that came out in July 2023. On the face of it, it’s a pretty classic 5x4 slot with 30 paylines, but there are so many surprises hidden in it that we simply have to walk you through them all!
For starters, we have to tell you that Butterfly Charms is a gorgeous audiovisual package that will certainly impress you with its graphics. The theme is all about small forest animals and some elves, and it works like a charm (pun very much intended)!
Looking at the game’s math model, we can tell you that it’s a medium-high volatility affair, and that its hit frequency clocks in at 26.46%. The most that you can win in one go is then 6,500x your bet, and you can dive into the action for stakes between £0.30 and £150 per spin. Unfortunately, though, the theoretical RTP of Butterfly Charms is a bit below average, standing at 95.51%
Butterfly Charms Slot Features
There are 8 pay symbols in Butterfly Charms, and they are divided evenly into 4 low pays and 4 high pays. For the former, there are your usual card suits, and even these can net you up to 3x your bet for a combination. Then, there are caterpillars, ladybugs, male elves and female elves. Female elves are worth the most, and you’ll get a nice 15x payout for a set of five.
In addition to pay symbols, there are also Logo Scatters, Wilds, Re-Spin Wilds, and Multiplier Wilds. Classic Wilds work as you’d expect, so let’s move on to the slot’s gameplay features.
First up, it’s worth mentioning that the game’s symbols can appear as Stacked Symbols of up to 4 matching symbols. That’s not particularly unusual, but it does contribute to the slot’s pleasant hit frequency.
Next, we have the Random Wilds feature that can show up at any point of the game and net you a random number of extra Wilds. During the base game, it can net you Wilds and Re-Spin Wilds, while you can also get some Multiplier Wilds this way during free spins.
On that note, we have to add that Re-Spin Wilds always lock themselves and all other Wilds for one free respin. Landing more Re-Spin Wilds during that respin then continues the process, which is great. Multiplier Wilds, meanwhile, can carry win multipliers of 2x and 5x, and you can use multiples together as well.
Landing 3, 4, or 5 Logo Scatters then triggers the Free Spins feature with 8, 10, or 12 free spins, respectively. This is where you can access the aforementioned Multiplier Wilds, and it’s worth noting that you can also purchase free spins via the Buy Free Spins option for 70x your bet.
Review Summary
Although the Butterfly Charms isn’t trying to do anything original, it’s a well-made and enchanting package that will surely catch your eye, especially if you’re into forest themes of all kinds. Its theoretical RTP could’ve been a bit better, but its atmosphere does compensate for that at least a little bit.
