Play The Queen of Spades for Free

When the game loads, the symbol you're likely to spot first is one of a grey-haired woman who looks like she must be the Queen of this slot. As it transpires once you check the paytable however she is no such thing and is rather just a regular member of the house. The lady who transpires to be the Queen herself is named Liza, presumably in homage to Queen Elizabeth, and is distinctly younger than the grey-haired woman. There are quite a few genteel characters who you’ll be encountering in this game as it develops.

The Queen of Spades free slot has 21 paylines. At first this seems like some sort of tie in with playing cards and the game of blackjack. It is worth noting however that the developers of this slot have released numerous other games which also have 21 paylines, none of which are connected with playing cards in any conceivable way. Regardless of the reasons, it is an unusual format for a 5-reel slot but it is one that works out well here. You can set a max bet of 10 coins per line which, of course, works out at 210 coins per spin. The minimum is 0.21.

While the playing card element of this game doesn't come across particularly strongl,y there are some aspects where it does feature. There is of course the playing card symbols which have the usual stated values from a deck of cards. Here they've been attractively designed with a series of cogs in the background as if plucked from a grandfather clock. There's also a pocket watch symbol which appears in this game, giving a chronological vibe to this game. Perhaps there is an Alice in Wonderland connection after all, one harking back to the White Rabbit who was late at the start of the story.

The various character symbols that appear in this mobile-compatible slot actually have names. There is the Butler and old lady who remain anonymous but thereafter there is German who is the gentleman in a top hat who’s depicted flinging a deck of cards, there is Liza and then there are the wild and scatter symbols. The wild symbol is the golden pocket watch featuring a red heart with a gemstone inlaid into it. It will substitute for all other symbols in the base game. Then there is a scatter which appears as an ornate spade symbol and it will trigger free spins. There are as many as 15 to be won and there is also a stacked scatter symbol of Liza to look out for.

Gamblers who have relished playing The Queen of Spades should also check out Treasure Hunter by Gamesys. It also has 21 paylines and is rated as having median variance. Like The Queen of Spades, its RTP is unstated. There are also other games by ThunderSpin which play very similarly such as the medium volatility Magic Jam. It awards the same number of free spins as The Queen of Spades at 15 and the same number of free spin multipliers which can be as high as 7x.

There's a lot to love about The Queen of Spades even though this isn't the best slot that ThunderSpin have released so far. This is still a very well designed and entertaining game which neatly casts you back in time to the late 19th century. The characters are eclectic, the graphics are detailed and animations are extremely smooth. Whether you choose to play on Android or iPhone or even on desktop, The Queen of Spades is a game which promises all kinds of fun.
