Play Noughty Crosses for Free

Making up the reels is a variety of tattoo symbols, including flaming Dragons, Flowers, and some elaborately dawn poker card values. Impressive animation accompanies winning combinations, with the roaring Dragon being the most fantastic. The backdrop for this game is an intricate design of tribal patterns much like those found in the design catalog of any reputable tattoo parlor.

The Noughty Crosses Logo is the top paying symbols with 5 in a line resulting in 1,000 coins payout.

The Wild Dice substitutes all other symbols on the reels apart from Xs and Os, which are both scatters and your key to the Free Spins Bonus. You need either 3 Xs or 3 Os to appear diagonally, horizontally, or vertically on reels 2, 3, and 4 for the Free Spins event to activate. Three Xs trigger the X Free Spins while 3 Os trigger O Free Spins. If you get both 3 Xs and 3 Os, then the X Free Spins will play first and the O Free Spins will follow.

Three or more Xs will trigger the X Free Spins where you will be awarded with an initial 5 free spins and an extra spin for each additional X that appears on the reels during spins. The X Free Spins cannot be retriggered, and you cannot trigger the O Free Spins during this feature.

On the other hand, O Free Spins will be activated when you hit 3 or more Os on the reels. You will be awarded with 5 free spins and an extra spin for each additional O that appears on the reels. Additional spins will be awarded when you hit Os in the feature. This bonus round cannot be retriggered.

If you love free spins with your slots play, then you will warm up to the bonus here, though watch your bankroll because the free spins don’t trigger as often as you might expect, even with 2 free spins events available. In addition, the 243 Ways layout proves to be rather expensive after a few spins, so this game would be even better if it offered a few more features, but alas, it is what it is. If nothing else, it is a beautifully designed slot with lots of attractive artwork that any tattoo lover can appreciate. If you are a fan of the 243 Ways to Win format but not so much tattoos, try out the generous Mystique Grove or the party-themed Twisted Circus, both by Microgaming.
