Line up for a saucy slot with a difference in Risque Megaways, the online game from Red Tiger Gaming. It's showtime, but this cabaret act is for adults only with a Moulin Rouge theme that is glamorous and a little bit sexy. But the high-kicking fun isn't all the entertainment that's included because you could also win a top prize of x5250.
Adult entertainment and burlesque have been popular shows for more than a century, with risqué dance moves and costumes thrilling the audiences. Although Moulin Rouge is one of the best-known of them all, there are many other burlesque shows too. The genre is such a big hit with audiences that there are a number of slots dedicated to the theme, with titles such as Burlesque Queen, Burlesque 2 and Burlesque by Dita all providing fun on the reels.
Back in Risque Megaways, the gameplay is set over six reels, and features the usual megaways set-up. This means that a different number of symbols can land on each reel per spin, with between 2 and 8 available. There are also two additional rows, one above the board and one below, which provide, in total, a maximum 321,489 ways to win. Unlike the entertainment, the betting is rather modest, with a range of 0.10 to 20.00. Volatility is high, however, which may help to make up for the low max bet.
Burlesque and Moulin Rouge are all about visual entertainment, so Red Tiger had a big reputation to live up to when creating this slot. Luckily, this studio is a master of beautiful, in-depth graphics, and they've delivered once again with Risque Megaways. The backdrop showcases a stunning, illuminated stage, while on the reels, there is an array of symbols and even a scantily clad dancer or two!
The playing card suits make up the low pays, providing a top payout of x0.4 for lining up six. The premium symbols include microphones, perfume bottles, hats, boots and cocktail glasses and pay a top prize of x2 for matching six.
Similar to many other megaways titles, the game features cascading reels. This means every time there's a win; the winning symbols are removed, allowing the remaining tiles to drop down into new positions. The gaps are then filled with new symbols, which drop into place, giving the potential for more wins to be formed. This cycle will keep repeating until there are no more matches visible.
There’s no shortage of bonuses and extras included in this slot, so saddle up because there’s plenty to enjoy.
The extra rows on the top and bottom may show a fan symbol; if they are aligned on both reels, the fan unfolds to cover a full reel. This will give players either a random symbol from the paytable or you might receive a Wild Super Symbol. No matter what symbol appears between the fans, it will come with a multiplier of between x4 and x9. This reel will then lock in position and remain in place until you get a win.
If you land more than one pair of fans simultaneously, they’ll reveal the same symbol on each full reel.
There are also scatters on the board, and if you land three or more, you'll receive ten free spins. Land any more scatters during the bonus round, and you'll receive an extra free spin for each. A multiplier will apply to any wins during free spins, starting at x1 and increasing by +1 after each win. A maximum multiplier of x20 is available to claim. Pairs of fans can still appear during free spins, but the full length feature symbol will remain in place until the end of the round.
Risque Megaways from Red Tiger Gaming is a glorious celebration of burlesque entertainment. True, it's not quite as titivating as the name suggests, but it's tasteful and is something that all players can enjoy. The top prize could be higher, and the betting range is rather narrow, but these are small complaints about a top-quality game that's flawless overall.
