Humpty Dumpty Introduction
Unless you’re well and truly allergic to all things pink, cute and cartoony, you will love the cleverly designed game world of Humpty Dumpty. We’re definitely in the realms of Ye Olde Merrie England thanks to the half-timbered houses you can glimpse behind the reels, and the symbols are bright and beautifully drawn. Another big plus is the theme music, which really captures the Disneyesque ambience.
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall…
This is a 5-reel, 25-fixed payline pokie, so you’ll only be able to increase and decrease the size of your total bet. This will take some of the fun out of strategizing for some of you, but if you’re looking for a fun game with some bonus surprises, read on.
All the king’s horses…
All bets are paid in multipliers, so the bigger the stake, the bigger the potential rewards. Your full house rewards are as follows: 10, J: 50x Q, K: 80x A: 100x Serving maid, Horse: 150x King’s man, Queen: 300x King: 500x
All the king’s men…
Where Humpty Dumpty gets interesting is in its bonus game play. For a start, the wild symbol is a golden banner embellished with crossed egg spoons. It’s another well-integrated symbol that builds the gaming environment. It behaves like a classic wild in gameplay, substituting for every symbol except the Heart and Humpty Dumpty.
Spin one or more on a non-locked wheel, and you’ll trigger an automatic re-spin that advances all symbols by one position. Those respins will keep retriggering until no more wilds appear. Humpty Dumpty is the scatter symbol, and when he covers the middle reel, wall and all, you’ll trigger the free spins bonus. What you’re looking for here are the collectible heart symbols on reels 2, 3 and 4.
When a heart appears on a reel, it gets collected. If you collect three on any reel, that reel will fill with wilds. Better yet, they’ll lock in place for the remainder of your free spins, serving up some very tasty prizes - and not a scrambled egg in sight!
Couldn’t put Humpty together again
If you buy into the perfectly realised little universe of this game, you’ll want to put Humpty together spin after spin. We really enjoyed the way that Push Gaming put so much thought into Humpty Dumpty and its attention to detail. Of course, it won’t suit everyone; after all, you can’t make a great pokie without cracking a few eggs! Our advice? Give it a spin and see for yourself!
