The Charleston Introduction
Enjoy the flamboyant era of the Jazz Age by playing The Charleston, an evocative free online pokies experience from the creative developers at High 5. Designed in glossy style to evoke the Roaring Twenties, the graphics are sophisticated, and while they are reminders of this bygone age, the technology powering them is right up to date.
How to Play
The Charleston is a game with six reels, three rows and up to 466 glittering paylines. Join the party and win big by lining up matching combinations of the symbols on the reels. Line up six of the gorgeous blonde flapper in her pearls and headband to win a 400x payout on your total bet. The handsome young man in his white bow tie will pay out 300x your total bet when you gather six of him on the reels.
Dance into action
Playing The Charleston is easy, with access to most of the controls you need right there on the screen. When you look at the screen, you will see a number of display tabs and buttons along the bottom. At the right is the Spin button, which sets the game in motion. On its left is the Autoplay button, where you can set the game in motion for up to 25 spins.
During Autoplay, the button becomes the Stop button so the game can be halted at any time. At the far left is the tab displaying how many lines are in play, with handy arrows for adjusting this up and down. In the middle, essential information such as the bet per spin, credits and winnings are displayed. The button with the question mark will take you to the Paytable and more information about the game and its bonus features.
Shimmering Wilds
The Wild is the symbol with The Charleston on it. When these appear on reels two, three, four, five and six they will substitute for other symbols to make more winning combinations. Additionally, they will rotate and dazzle you with their display of lights. Line up a big win and fireworks literally go off on the screen. The Jackpot is another symbol to watch for, and it only appears on reel one.
Combine The Jackpot and The Charleston, and the player could be in line to receive up to 1,000x their total wager. When the bonus round is in action, the Free Games symbol is replaced by the Wild and the Wild substitutes for all symbols and appears only on the reels three, four and five. Even better, the Wilds will expand during the Free Games Bonus for even more opportunities to win.
Pop the Champagne Corks
The Free Games symbol is a real corker. Three of these on the reels can activate the Free Games Bonus feature. However the symbol, which is also the Scatter, only appears on reels three, four and five. Depending on how many lines are in play, you will receive free spins when three Scatters are present. The number of free spins the player receives will range from two, up to seven free spins.
