Snake Charmer Slot Machine
Snake charming is quite something to behold, and even more terrifying to those of us not blessed with the ability to seemingly hypnotise reptiles. Although it’s unlikely that the snakes are truly being put under a spell, the illusion that these street performers give us is something that speaks to our ever-childlike souls.
Being able to witness such feats aren’t an everyday occurrence for most of us, which means that we have to resort to the likes of internet videos and memes to appreciate the complexity of the art. That was until Snake Charmer from iSoftBet came along and provided us with our very own show, running 24/7.
Here someone other than us is close to the deadly snakes, meaning their potent venom can never pierce our delicate flesh. What is more, the snakes are much friendlier, dropping large wads of money whenever they emerge from their baskets. It’s much more PC when you play online, inside your home, cuddled up to your pets and far away from ‘accidents’ and baskets tipping over…
Naturally Charming
What you’ll notice straight from the off is that Snake Charmer is a very small game from the leading provider; instead of much variety, you have but seven symbols to find across the 5 reels and 5 paylines. Having such minute dynamics can sometimes be counterproductive, with the game feeling like it’s lacking somewhat, but with this online title you’re charmed from the start. We suspect sorcery of some kind is afoot.
Rather refreshingly however, is the fact that despite the selective paytable, the lower paying tiles bring in quite a lot of money. Moreover, rather than a minimum of three of a kind being needed, users can find two of a kind and still get a reward. The genie lamp is the weakest of all the symbols, and yet it can pay as much as €200, when you get all five of them. On the flip side of this, it can bring in as little as €2, but even that doesn’t seem all that appauling.
Most noticeable about this title though, is how much the prize values jump upward. Players start off with a possible high of 200 credits, then end up at 5,000 in six simple steps. In turn, this makes Snake Charmer one of iSoftBet’s more financially rewarding games, even despite its appearance. Way to play it cool, guys.
Under Your Spell
For the charmer to put the snake under, he needs to be given between 0.02 and 2 credits, meaning that your total stake can jump from a mere €0.10 to €10. However, neither amount is too startling for an online slot machine, which goes to show how versatile and open to the masses iSoftBet is; you don’t need a high pay-in to get a big payout.
Also rather kind of them to include is the range in which you can play the Autospins – users have between 5 and 50 waves to select from. This may be lower than other titles out there, but the lack of choice actually works out due to the size of the game.
You can choose the 5 or 10 rounds without having to click the Autospins widget, or you can select it and open up a window with the setting inside. When the window is presented to you, you can opt for the advanced options and go to town on the customisation.
When it comes to setting the paylines, you can use the button provided or simply tap the numbers on either side of the grid. Honestly, it’s unlikely you’ll need to decrease the number you’re working with as 5 winlines is neither here nor there already, but at least the option is available should you change your minds.
You’re Getting Very Sleepy
We’re sure it’s meant to be the snake under this spell, but the more we play Snake Charmer the more we wonder whether it’s us being hypnotised. This is an online slot machine that shouldn’t interest us as intensely as it does, yet here we are ready to play another round. Perhaps it’s the content of the theme provided, for it’s unusual for the Arabic design to take such a niche approach when it could have simply relied on Aladdin or something similar.
