Adventures Beyond Wonderland Introduction
You know this is no ordinary pokie from the get-go, as a grinning cat entices Alice and you on a journey like no other. You may not get to float away holding onto a bubble blown by the animated caterpillar, but the stunningly executed graphics and overall design of this game are instantly captivating.
There are also plenty of additional visuals, like a toadstool marker for ‘spin’, which adds an impressive extra something to the overall design. The easy to navigate setup and instructions for play make it easy for players of any experience level to jump straight down the rabbit hole and enjoy the game.
The characters and symbols don’t disappoint
As is fitting with this pokie’s theme, some of the major icons from the original book make an appearance. As well as the lead character of Alice, decked out as you’d expect in her long blue and white dress, you will also come across the ever smiling Cheshire Cat, the teapot which was home to the dormouse, the White Rabbit’s stopwatch, the Mad Hatter’s top hat and the magnificent crown worn by the Queen of Hearts.
The visuals are genuinely amazing, with both still and animated characters providing a visual feast which is just as powerful whether you are playing on a desktop, mobile, tablet or laptop.
Up to 2187 ways to win
Adventures Beyond Wonderland by Playtech goes out of its way to deliver wins to players, both through payouts for matching several symbols on the standard reel spins, and through the various bonus games and opportunities which pepper every session very generously. During regular play, there are payouts for matching Three or more symbols, although as with most games, the more lucrative rewards depend on five or more appearing in one spin.
However, where this pokie differs is that landing five isn’t as unrealistic as it may sound, as during one of the several bonus games, Alice may drink a potion and cause the reels to expand, making seven matches possible!
The unusual extras
Bonus features are a large part of the thrill of this game, and the most visible is controlled by the animated caterpillar, which blows bubbles with something inside them across reels two to four. These tantalising prizes could be yours if the Alice wild icon happens to fall into one of those reels and bursts it.
Potential bonuses are a cash prize of golden coins, a x10 multiplier, the progressive jackpot or the potion which triggers the reel expansion. Few games can match this for endless enjoyment which never feels tired and stale, so suspend belief and step into an alternative reality which promises both fun and treasure.
