Charming Hearts slot online for free in demo mode. Play free casino games, no download required. Expert review included.
This slot is every bit as charming as its title would suggest, but suffers from a below-average RTP (95.92%).
Read full reviewCharming Hearts slot is one of those games that seems to have picked its theme from a fever dream. But somehow, it still works.
The world of the slot follows a group of frogs in silly hats, their princely counterparts, and the Princess that they all wish to marry. Each Frog and Prince symbol has a rose clamped between their teeth as they search for love in the firefly-lit swamp that they call home.
It’s a strange theme, but a compelling one with its odd little characters, the universal appeal of a love story, and the beautifully realized setting.
The graphics of the Charming Hearts slot are top-notch. Each of the symbols is a complete character, giving off tons of personality just from their still images alone.
That character is amplified by each symbol’s winning animation in which each of the frogs and Princess gets to shine.
The soundtrack is a bit generic. But overall, this slot holds together well with a fun atmosphere and delightful visuals that draw you into the slot’s carefully crafted world.
Charming Hearts is a five-reel slot with four rows and forty win lines.
A key feature of the game is the Princess symbol. When she lands in the middle of reel three, she blows kisses to a random selection of the frog and Prince symbols. If she kisses a frog, the symbol is upgraded to the corresponding Prince. If she kisses a Prince, then the Prince becomes either a Wild or gains a multiplier.
There is also a double-or-nothing gamble feature that can be used to amplify the volatility of this slot.
The maximum win on any given round is capped at 6,000x of the player’s bet.
The Wild symbol can form winning combinations by substituting for any symbol except for the Scatter symbol.
The Scatter pays from any position regardless of win lines. Plus, if you land a Scatter in the center of reel three, then it triggers the Free Spin bonus.
The player can then select a Prince with which to play the bonus. The Princes do not significantly affect the RTP. However, the volatility is very different depending on which you choose. For example, the first Prince offers 8 free spins with the Princess symbol gaining an x5 or x10 multiplier. However, the last Prince offers 12 free spins with multipliers of x1, x2, or x3.
Once you have chosen the Prince you prefer, the Free Spin Bonus begins. During the Free Spin Bonus, each time the Princess symbol upgrades a Prince, a counter ticks up. Each time the counter hits three, a Frog symbol is upgraded to your chosen Prince symbol. Once all the Frogs are upgraded, each further three ticks on the counter give the player more free spins.
The return to player of Charming Hearts is 95.92%, a little under our yardstick for an average of roughly 96%.
The range of bets on the site we tested ran from a minimum bet per spin of $/£/€0.40 up to a maximum of $/£/€120.00 per spin.
This slot, Charming Hearts, is a medium to high-volatility slot. If it had a higher RTP, it could work reasonably well with our preferred slot machine strategies.
You can increase the volatility of the slot using the gamble feature and by choosing the high volatility bonus option. However, the below-average RTP would steer us away from this slot unless RTP is not important to you.
This slot is great in many ways. The graphics are beautiful, the animations fun, and the soundtrack solid.
The volatility isn’t great, but you can increase that by using the built- in features of the slot. In fact, our only real gripe with this otherwise delightful slot is that the RTP of 95.93% is a bit low.
If you’re not worried by the small downsides and fancy a trip into a delightful fairy tale world of frogs and princes, then this might be the game for you.
