Scrooge Gameplay and Symbols
The Scrooge slot machine from Microgaming contains five reels and can be played for up to 50 paylines. The coin options available are 0.01, 0.02, 0.05, 0.10, 0.20, 0.25, and 0.50 with 1 to 10 coins available to bet on each line. This means all paylines can be played for as little as 0.50 (0.01 coin option and betting 1 coin per line), while someone who wishes to play for the maximum amount can do so for 250 per spin (0.50 coin option and betting 10 coins per line) – meaning Scrooge is perfect for players of all bankroll levels.
Microgaming have done a superb job of designing symbols to fit the classic Dickens tale, and fans of the story will instantly recognise the characters on the reels when they load up the slot machine. The main symbol in the game is the Scrooge logo which is the Wild symbol and substitutes for all others apart from the Scatter, with any Wild wins being doubled. Should players manage to land five Scrooge logo symbols on the reel at one time they will win the jackpot of 6,000 coins. The Scatter symbol is the golden door knocker and Scatter wins are multiplied by the total bet staked. Several characters from the tale also feature as symbols on the reels with Ebenezer Scrooge himself being joined by Tiny Tim, Jacob Marley, and the three Ghosts (past, present and future). Other symbols included which are worth smaller prizes are a safe, bag of coins, a book, clock, and set of keys.
