Pan Fairy Slot
It’s unusual to find an online slot machine based on what’s essentially a children’s story, but the Pan Fairy video slot is themed directly around Disney’s Peter Pan movie. The film was first released in 1953, so I guess the people that this game is aimed at will be all grown up by now, unlike Peter himself who always stayed young, but it’s still surprising to see a cartoon movie featured like this.
Colourful images of Tinkerbell, Captain Hook, the crocodile and Mr Smee are all here, along with playing card symbols 9 through to A and a couple of simple, but popular bonus features, such as wild multipliers and a higher-paying free spins round. It’s all been certified by independent companies for fair play and reliability, so spinners can place wagers knowing that their money isn’t heading off to some Neverland and on average, they will get back most of what they staked.
Those bets can start off at just 0.90 per spin, which activates all 9 paylines of this 5-reel slot game, although if you prefer to practice first, there’s free Pan Fairy video slots available as well, or you could play just a single line for as little as 0.10. The high limit that can be wagered per spin is 180.00, and depending on which symbol creates the winning line, you will need 2 or 3 of the same type across adjacent reels from the left side to win a prize.
Playing Pan Fairy
You won’t need to head off to the second star on the right and straight on until morning to find this game, as it’s available at the many online and mobile-optimised casinos that carry the Spade Gaming slots range. A nicely animated picture of the jungle, complete with giant toadstools is seen behind the reels and the animations extend to the character symbols which move around in various ways when they become part of a winning line.
Those winnings start with the 10, J, Q, and K symbols that are each worth 5x, 25x, or 100x the amount staked per payline when landing on 3, 4, or 5 reels, and the 10 even returns a small win of 2x when it’s seen on just reels 1 and 2.
Colourful and probably very poisonous toadstools are worth 10x, 50x and 125x the coin value, while going steadily up in prize amounts, we see the various characters, and a treasure chest. The best returns are from Captain Hook, who helps you to plunder the casino of between 3x and 750x the line bet, depending on how many reels he’s across.
Pleasing Peter Pan Payouts
Peter Pan, looking pretty smug with himself, returns the best wins when he’s across a payline. You win 10x the line bet if he lands on reels 1 and 2, or 200x, 2,000x and a huge 10,000x if you also get this symbol on 3, 4, or 5 spots of the line. This is also a wild symbol, so Peter is able to act as all except the game logo to fill in any gaps in a continuous run of matching symbols, or to extend a win further across to right side. As an extra treat, any win-lines that are completed by the wild symbol will be doubled in value and to top it all off, there’s even a special animation as he flies across the screen.
The game logo is a scatter symbol that pays multiples of the total stake rather than the per line bet. It can also turn up in any places to be worth a prize, with just 2 being valued at 2x the bet, while 5 are worth 500x. On top of this, it’s the trigger for 15 free spins that play out on the deck of Captain Hook’s ship as it gently bobs around on the sea, with Tinkerbell introducing the games with her trademark sprinkling of pixie dust.
There’s a standard mix of symbols on the reels, so the odds of getting a win are the same as in the base games, but any wins during this round will be tripled in value. Landing 3 or more scatter symbols retriggers the bonus spins and players earn a further 15 extra games that are tacked on to the end of any still left in the current round.
Our Thoughts on Pan Fairy
Although the gameplay and features are fairly conventional, the charming design and use of popular characters, should guarantee success for this movie-based online casino slot game. With just 9 paylines, it’s a low-volatility game, where lots of winning lines can be spun up although the minimum stake of 0.90 to play for real cash with all lines active could be a little high for players on small budgets.
Apart from this, there’s really nothing wrong with the Pan Fairy video slot, as most people will be more than happy to get bonuses such as wild and free spins multipliers, even if such extra features have been seen in numerous other slot games before.
