Sherlock Mystery is a video slot that taps into the mythos of Sherlock Holmes with authenticity, and fans of the character will agree. It features the classic Holmes and Watson aesthetic, with Holmes wearing his deerstalker hat and Watson in his bowler hat.
This dedication to the theme helps to pull players in from the start. The gameplay itself is simple: the reels spin and if enough symbols land on the paylines from left to right, a win will be created. It’s easy for all players to try.
It also has a fantastic bonus feature called the ‘crime scene bonus’. Whenever players land three of the magnifying glass scatters on the reels, a mini game will be triggered. Players have to choose clues within the bedroom: there are eight clues, each with a cash prize attached. The bonus round ends when the player gets the collect symbol.
There’s also a great free spins round in Sherlock Mystery, activated whenever three of the Baker Street scatters make their way to the reels. It awards players 10 free spins and adds a wild to the reels, which has a random multiplier. If any wins are created with this wild, the total value of the payout will be multiplied by a random amount between 2 and 5.
The free spins mode can also be activated again, creating the potential to earn more spins. There’s also another feature: if Watson appears directly to the right of Holmes three times, the stake will be paid out.
