The Romeo and Juliet slot game can be found at casinos offering Pragmatic Play software. Pragmatic Play are one of the newer slots game developers on the market but their products are polished and professional in feel and operation. As a standard Pragmatic Play do publish the RTP/House Edge information for their slots games within their game help file. For a provider that are not currently licensed within the UK market and therefore are under no obligation to publish these figures this is a significantly progressive move. The House Edge of Romeo and Juliet is 3.58%.
“For never was a story of more woe. Than this of Juliet and her Romeo.”
Romeo and Juliet is a 5 reel game with 25 paylines and you can bet up to 10 coins on each payline.
The ‘Romeo’ symbol is Wild and only appears on reel 1. The ‘Juliet’ symbol is also Wild and only appears on reel 5.
There is only one bonus feature when playing Romeo and Juliet and it is triggered when you receive either the Romeo Wild symbol on reel 1 or the Juliet Wild symbol on reel 5. When this happens the Romeo symbol will move one position to the right and trigger a free respin or the Juliet symbol will move one position to the left and trigger a free respin. This process repeats until Romeo leaves the right side of the reels or Juliet leaves the left side of the reels. If the Romeo and Juliet Wild symbols meet in the same position they expand to turn the entire reel into a Wild reel and award 25 free spins. The Wild reel is locked for the duration of the free spins. The Romeo and Juliet Wild symbols do not move during the free spins. Free spins cannot be retriggered.
Conclusion
Romeo and Juliet is a visually attractive game with a House Edge that’s good but not great. The bonus feature is reasonable without being entirely new. All in all a fair game.
