3 Oaks has been creating Hold and Win slots consistently, with little variation between releases, a trend seen in Lotus Charm as well. This slot game features a 5-reel, 3-row playing field with 20 paylines and a lotus theme. The designers excelled at the game’s audio-visual aspects, with rich graphics and numerous small animations, creating an immersive atmosphere.
The game’s volatility is high, and the Grand jackpot is 2,000 times your bet. The potential stakes range from £0.20 to £30, with a slightly below-average RTP of 95.78%. The symbols in Lotus Charm are visually appealing, with the low-pay ones featuring card ranks from Jacks to Aces. The high-pay symbols, consisting of ducks, butterflies and two beautiful female symbols, can yield up to 7.5 times your stake for a five-of-a-kind combination.
Special symbols include Lotus Wilds, Tree Scatters, and Moons. Lotus Wilds substitute for other pay symbols and come with their own payout values. The Random Wild feature, triggered by collecting Lotus Wilds, can add between 4 and 15 extra Wild symbols. Landing 3 Tree Scatters triggers the Free Spins feature with 10 free spins. During this feature, landing 3 additional Tree Scatters adds 5 extra free spins.
The game’s Bonus Game is triggered by landing 6 or more Moons, which is a Hold and Win feature. This feature can yield three different jackpots: Mini, Minor, and Major, worth 20x, 50x, and 150x your bet respectively. Filling the whole board with Moons awards the Grand jackpot, which is 2,000 times your bet.
Although Lotus Charm by 3 Oaks maintains high production values and a captivating atmosphere, it is essentially a reskin of the company’s previous releases. If you feel you have played enough of this type, you may want to skip it.
