Rickety Cricket offers 25 paylines over 5 vibrant reels. It has been developed by Cryptologic, a brand which is well known for producing high quality video slots. This one is an utter delight too, with a fresh theme complimented by high quality features. These include revolving mega wilds, free spins and scatter wins.

Rickety Cricket Slot Theme

Rickety Cricket has been designed to resemble a garden, or at least a grassed habitat where crickets would live. The main character himself peers out between two strands of grass. He looks like he could have just walked off the set of James and the Giant Peach, or a modern day animated movie.

The line markers have been placed on leafs, whilst the buttons have been designed to look like bark from a tree. The overall look is impressive and is matched by quality reel icons, animation and a catchy set of sound effects.

The reel icons remain static until a winning combination is made. Each one has its own animation, my favorite is the mosquito scatter which comes to an untimely end in a bug zapper. Other icons include bumble bees, snails, fireflies, flowers, bonus leafs, 10, Jack, Queen, King and Ace symbols.

Betting options are equally attractive as the slot itself, with a 0.01 (penny) to $100 betting range ensuring every style of gambler is catered for. Whether you are playing for fun, or playing for high stakes.

Another helpful inclusion is auto play which can be preset with 1 to 999 spins. You can also change the speed of these spins and change whether or not the reels stop for bonus rounds.

Rickety Cricket Slot Features Explained

The wild symbols can appear on all reels, substituting for other symbols to create winning combinations. The wilds on this slot revolve around the reels in threes, this means they can fill an entire reel from time to time.

The Bug Zapper icon can trigger scatter wins when it appears on reel 1. The bee, firefly and mosquito icons become scatters and are exterminated. They also pay out a win based on the number of scatters multiplied by your line stake. For example 1 scatter pays 2x your bet whilst 6 will return 30x your bet.

The free spin bonus round is awarded if a bonus icon appears on reels 2, 3 and 4 at the same time. This awards 8 free spins with any wins multiplied by a random amount decided before the round begins. This ranges from 2x to 8x, depending on the luck of the draw.

Rickety Cricket offers a blend of design, function and features which results in an all-round entertaining video slot.
