What Charlie Chance XREELZ is all about
Charlie Chance slot is the second in a series based on this same character. Charlie has been taken in by a strange woman who has promised he will become rich. But, he finds himself in a type of cartoon hell where he has to battle the woman who turns out to be the devil. The look and feel of the slot is cute and simplistic, with a pre-war animated vibe to it. In fact, it does look rather like a silent movie. While the backdrop is black and white, all the symbols on the reels are actually in colour making them stand out. The low-value icons are the four card playing suits. High-value symbols are devils, bells, 666s and Charlie. He is the most well paid, paying out 20x when five land on the reels.XREELZ Multiplier feature
The centre of the action in Charlie Chance XREELZ is, of course, the XREELZ themselves. The first feature is the XREELZ Multiplier feature. The XREELZ are extra reels spinning horizontally atop the main 5 reel grid. When a winning combination lands on the reels, then that reel becomes highlighted. At this point, the XREELZ multiplier feature is triggered. Consequently, the multiplier value is shown in the position on top of the highlighted reel. This is then added to any wins made on the grid as a whole, as well as the symbols specifically on that reel. With this in play, and the wild symbols in action, some big wins can come out of this first Charlie Chance feature. However, remember that the wild needs to replace other symbols for a chance to create winning combinations.Second Chance Respins feature
The next feature in Charlie Chance XREELZ is the Second Chance Respins feature. To get this feature underway, two scatter symbols need to land in any position on the reels. They have to be landed on the same round though in order for this to happen. When those scatters land, not only is the respins feature activated, but the scatters will remain locked in place on the reels and only the other three reels without the scatters will spin again. What this means is that there is another chance at landing 3 to 5 more scatters. If this is the case, then it's not the respins that will start to play. Instead, it will be the Bonus Spins feature, which contains three different options. The reward is 10 bonus spins and one of the multiplier features.Bonus Spins feature
In addition to these spins, the XREELZ multiplier activates throughout the duration of the bonus spins. Better yet, there's no need for a wild to land on the reels in order to activate it. Instead, one reel will get highlighted on every spin. The multiplier sitting above the reel will then get applied to any wins that are made as well as one of the symbols from the reel that has been highlighted. If a wild lands during this feature, the wild becomes sticky, staying in place for the remainder of the bonus spins. However, it will shift to a different spot after each spin. For three scatters, the Flaming Spins occurs with 2 to 5x multipliers. Four scatters is the Inferno and awards 5 to 8x multipliers, with 5 being Hellfire and 8 to 25x multipliers.Summary of Charlie Chance XREELZ
Charlie Chance XREELZ is actually relatively similar to the first game in this series. However, the XREELZ serve to make this game stand out a bit from the original version by offering something fresh in the gameplay. This actually really elevates the sequel noticeably. There are other improvements too. For instance, the 96.25% RTP is an improvement on the original game. Additionally, there's a whopping 20,000x the bet maximum win. A huge step up from the original 6666x the stake win. Finally, this new version of the game has 5 bonus features compared to just 2 in Charlie Chance in Hell to Pay. However, the game offers a rather high variance level which means it can be hard to score some of those really big wins. But the gameplay makes it really entertaining.
