Finn’s Golden Tavern Slot Review
One of the most popular games by NetEnt received a sequel and Finn has returned, inviting us into his local tavern. This slot is not as filled with bonus features as his older brother, but the Maximum Win Value was doubled from 500x to 1000x.
Mechanics of the game are the same as in Finn and the Swirly Spin with its spiral reel layout and avalanche feature. There are also some interesting bonus functions that can ignite your desire to play this game. I will tell you about them a bit later.
Finn’s Golden Tavern by NetEnt Video Review
Finn’s Golden Tavern features
The main part of the game happens on 5 reels and 5 rows that go in a spiral. In order to get a payout, you have to get a winning combination of 3 or more symbols horizontally or vertically, a single row or column can contain more than 1 win.
General Characteristics
Return To Player is 96.1%
Hit Frequency is 21.2%
Free spins frequency is 0.55%
Volatility is Medium-Low
There are 8 symbols plus Wild Symbol and Scatter Symbol.
The high value symbols are those which depict a different kind of alcohol on them and lower value symbols are golden coins but the mechanics of the payout with them is a little bit different. If you get 3 or more coin symbols of any value landing in a row it will award a coin win equal to the sum of values of these coin symbols.
Wins with Wild Symbols can intersect or overlap in the same row or column, but no Wild Symbols appear during the initial spin/drop. Wild Symbols substitute for all symbols except for the Free Spin Chest symbol.
There is also the Avalanche function which makes the winning symbols explode and free up space for more symbols and chances to win.
The bottom left place on the reels will always begin with a Free Spin Chest symbol. The Free Spin Chest symbol will progress to the center as wins occur and the remaining symbols avalanche. You get 5 Free Spins if the Free Spins Chest symbol is in the central position when there are no more winning combinations and all avalanches are complete. Free Spins function in a similar manner to the main game except for the addition of a multiplier meter, which can increase the win payout. The multiplier meter goes up one step for every Wild Symbol that is generated during avalanches. For every 5 steps in the meter, the multiplier goes up by 1, with this new multiplier applied to all following wins for the remainder of the Free Spin bonus round. When Free Spins begin, the multiplier is at 1.
Sometimes you can trigger the Random Coin Feature. After all winning combinations and/or avalanches have occurred on a spin, a Random Coin feature can be activated. After the Random Coin feature is activated, either 1 or 2 low win symbols are randomly chosen in either the central position, or the loop of symbols surrounding it, and turned into a coin symbol. The value of each coin is randomly chosen.
From time to time, Finn can slam the table and change the reels so you can get a winning combo. This is called the Fist Slam feature. In the main game on a no-win spin, the Fist Slam feature can be randomly activated and move a coin symbol so that a win is generated. The Fist Slam feature can be activated if there is at least one pair of two horizontally or vertically adjacent coin symbols in the play area and there is a third coin symbol nearby, which does not have any coin symbols close to it vertically or horizontally. When the feature is activated, the single coin swaps position with one of the low-win symbols to create 3 consecutive horizontal coin symbols.
Finn’s Golden Tavern Verdict
Visuals and music make this game an ideal slot for Saint Patrick’s Day celebration or when you hang out with your buddies at a local pub. Probably, this game is not for high rollers but more for casual players drinking beer and having fun together. If you are a fan of its older brother, Swirly Spin, I definitely recommend you to try this slot. Good luck and have fun!
