Get behind the Girl Power movement and take a trip to an ethereal world where the moon and stars take on a new meaning. Whether it’s your first time meeting the powerful trinity in Moon Princess or you’ve enjoyed every other entry in the series, you’re in for some fun. Read on to find out what’s new and how to play Moon Princess 100.
Rules
Moon Princess 100 is far from a traditional video slot layout, although fans of the series will recognize the five-by-five grid. Wins come from matching combinations of three or more symbols in a horizontal or vertical line anywhere on the grid.
Matching symbols disappear, and the other icons in the grid drop down, allowing you to make more potential combos. After the first set of winning symbols is removed, the multiplier, seen at the side of the grid, increases. It moves from 1x to 2x, but with more combinations can go all the way to 100x.
The plus and minus symbols let you move through the preset bet amount at the bottom of the screen. The large green spin button starts the action. The other icon that’s worth knowing about is the ‘i’ button for information. It launches the paytable and tells you about the princesses’ powers.
Gameplay
The expectations for an anime slot are that the graphics and animations will take centre stage. While that’s partly true, the features are just as rich as the design. The lower value symbols are the green storm icon, the star, the heart and the winged bell, which all have a celestial feel.
The three princesses act as high-value symbols. You can match three icons of Love, Star or Storm, or mix and match the magical figures, and you’ll still get a payout. If you clear all the symbols from the grid without using the special Trinity feature, you’ll get 50x your bet.
It’s a high volatility slot, which means sometimes waiting for a hit, but there’s also more potential for big wins compared to lower variance games.
Special Symbols
The base game with its multipliers and disappearing symbols is pretty entertaining on its own. However, there are a few extra twists and special touches of magic that the princesses have in store for you.
Wilds
The moon symbol is the Wild. It substitutes for all symbols. You’ll also get an impressive payout if you collect three or more. Since part of the aim of the game is to clear the grid of symbols, Wilds will disappear if you remove all other icons from the grid.
At the side of the grid, you’ll see one of the princesses. It could be Storm, Love or Star. Each one has a different power that they could randomly apply to the grid on a non-winning spin to change your fortune. Storm removes two sets of symbols; Love converts one set of symbols, and Star awards one or two Wilds.
Trinity
When you land the winning princess symbol combos, it fills the meter to the left of the grid. When it’s full, the Trinity feature is unlocked. The x3 combo fills up one part, x4 fills up two, and x5 symbols will fill all three. Each Girl Power is applied to the grid in a free round. If you clear the grid, then you launch free spins.
Free Spins
Clearing the grid during the Trinity feature launches the free spins. You can choose between Storm, Star or Love, who give you eight, five or four free spins. The princess of your choice applies her Girl Power to the grid on every non-winning spin.
Anytime the meter is filled, a few free spins are added. When you fill the meter, you get 100 free spins. Also, during this special round, the multiplier is active, and it never resets, making it possible to climb to 100x your bet.
Design
As an anime slot, the design is crucial to the success of the game. Play’n GO hasn’t disappointed. The princess characters are the right mix of vibrant, cute and magical. The animations that occur when the Girl Power feature is activated work well, making the game lively with an authentic feel.
We particularly like that the atmosphere changes depending on which princess is present. Plus, the music and sound effects of the symbols landing add to the ethereal and unusual style of the slot.
Final Thoughts
Moon Princess 100 will be a big hit with fans of the series as the 100 multiplier and 100 free spins increase the action and win potential. The features and design quality mean that the game works as a standalone piece even if you’ve never played Moon Princess before.
