Mystery is what intrigues everyone. And mystery is everywhere around us – in nature, movies, books, even the games we like so much in our favorite casinos, with the sweet suspense and anticipation of the next card, spin, number. Well, how about a game that gathers many of the most popular mystery characters in one place, one single slot machine. Yep, that’s possible at Realtime Gaming casinos, where you’ll get a chance to play the brand new “It’s A Mystery” progressive video slot, which introduces more mystery elements than any before.

You’d think there are too many of famous mystery faces in one place, but actually it’s good to see them all together, especially Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot. It seems like this mighty duo can solve right about any mystery – and a special one is at work here. “It’s A Mystery” is a graphically excellent 5-reel, 25 payline video slot, which apart from the famous detectives features wealthy people involved in the crime, as well as richly ornamented non-animated symbols. In addition to this, there are standard special features to improve the quality of play – wilds, scatters, free spins and multipliers, which can be received through a rather interesting bonus round. However, there are a couple of outstanding features as well, such as two random progressive jackpots and feature guarantee – so if after 150 spins you don’t get a feature, it will be automatically be awarded to you.

In terms of money, just like any other RTG game, “It’s A Mystery” is quite simple. All you need to do before you start playing is select coin amount, which ranges from $0.01 to $1. That’s also about the only choice you have in terms of bet amounts, because the maximum number of 25 lines is compulsory. But no worries, any bet may win you one of the two jackpots – Minor or Major, which can be triggered randomly at the end of each spin.

Special Features:

What’s so great about “It’s A Mystery” are not only the famous characters that we all like, but also the features, especially the Feature Guarantee one, which will award even your lack of luck, and perhaps turn it around.

There’s also the Wild mystery symbol, which substitutes for all other regular symbols, and appears quite often on the reels, thus creating more winning opportunities.

Apart from it, there’s the It’s A Mystery scatter, three or more of which trigger a bonus, divided into two rounds that will determine the number of your free spins and multiplier. First, you’re introduced into a picture puzzle, which is shuffled three times per round. The number of puzzle parts that land on the correct field increases the number of free spins you’ll get. The same happens with multipliers. It’s worth knowing that this feature may award some really hefty prizes, so it’s something to look forward to.

In the end, there’s much to “It’s A Mystery” that one simply has to like. Yes, it’s simpler than all those hi-tech 3D slots, but it’s so full of action at all times, that you’ll never be bored with it. A warm recommendation, indeed!
