3 Clown Monty Free Play in Demo Mode by Play'n GO

3 Clown Monty review

Theme and Storyline

This slot is themed around clowns.

In a chaotic carnival world, players will encounter a reel packed full of worse-for-wear clowns. Each of the red-nosed entertainers looks downtrodden or slightly insane, with their makeup slightly smudged.

Still, players will enjoy spotting the cream pies, smoking gorillas, and personified cars of this gritty circus. This is definitely not a game for anyone with a fear of clowns, but for fans of films such as Joker, the satirical vibe will hit the right spot.

Graphics, Sounds and Animations

A creepy classic carnival tune plays, with its unstoppable notes full of violent cheer. The reels spin with the zing one would expect from a classic carnival game. Meanwhile, wins are applauded loudly, creating the sense that an audience is watching.

Each clown among the symbols has a different bright colour for their hair. With their smeared makeup and sad and maniacial expressions, it is clear these clowns have not led a joyful life.

Behind the reels, is a brick wall and an angrily smoking gorilla can be seen. This adds to the feeling that there are stakes in this game beyond a good time. Players will have fun getting into the rough and touch mood as the game goes on.

Overall, the music and graphics create a consistent atmosphere of a carnival crew down on their luck.

Gameplay

3 Clown Monty is a five reel, three row slot, with 10 win lines.

Conclusion

We recommend this high RTP, high volatility clown-themed slot.

With ample volatility and respectably high RTP, this game is a good pick for strategy-conscious players.

The gritty clown theme is consistent and well-animated, but definitely won’t be the right aesthetic for everyone. Players who are not fond of clowns should steer clear, but for the rest of us, this is a fun world to engage in.
