Play Einstein Eureka Moments for Free

You win multiples of the total bet when symbols stop across a payline and the smaller, but therefore more frequently-occurring combinations will be made by the playing card symbols. Land either the 10, J, Q, or K symbols across a line and you will see returns of 0.2x, 1x and 6x the stake, depending on how many reels they stop on. The A pays out a little more, and then we see some unique symbols directly related to the theme, starting with a set of jars filled with colourful chemicals, which pays 0.8x, 3x and 10x the stake, then there’s a strand of DNA that’s worth up to 15x and an atom, which returns a top prize of 20x the triggering bet.

The game logo is the highest-value symbol however, paying you 0.2x the bet when it’s on just 2 reels, then 2.5x, 8x, or 50x when seen on 3, 4, or 5 reels across a payline. This is also the wild symbol, so it’s able to replace any other if it’s seen in the right positions to complete a winning combination or extend a win across extra reels. To help even more, this symbol can be stacked on a reel.

A rich variety of side games are triggered by the bonus symbols, with each round named after a famous scientist. They get triggered by 3 or more symbols of Einstein appearing anywhere on the reels, which takes you to a second screen, where Albert selects any of the 4 bonus rounds at random. The Newton’s Free Spins round awards you an unlimited number of extra games, during which apples will fall onto the reels, turning into extra wild symbols. Clearly, you won’t actually be given an unlimited number of free games, as you are awarded 3 lives, each of which ends when an apple drops onto Einstein’s head, but there’s the potential to get 10 – 20 games out of it before the round is over.

Bell’s Multiplier Spins is another set of free games, this time limited to 10, but there’s a telephone next to the reels that will ring when you land a winning combination. When it stops ringing, you will be awarded a multiplier for the win, ranging from just 1x, right up to 9x the amount. Charles Darwin awards 8 free spins in the Evolution Bonus feature. During these extra games, Darwin can appear, and he will remove any lower-value symbol from the mix, making it easier to land some of the higher-paying combinations. As the games progress, he will take more symbols away, so they evolve into ever more rewarding spins as they go along.

Edison’s Enlightened Bonus is yet another special round of 8 free spins, but the difference is that in each, a lightbulb will appear over the top of a randomly selected symbol, causing all symbols of the same type to turn into extra wilds, and while it’s not certain that this will lead to winning lines being formed, it’s fairly likely that it will. At the start of every bonus feature, an instant award of 2x the bet is paid out, so even in the unlikely event that you don’t win anything, there’s still a consolation prize.

The Einstein Eureka Moments video slot offers you some interesting bet options. All lines are in play at all times, giving punters a range from just 0.20 per spin, up to 150.00. But there’s also a Double Bubble option that ups stakes by 50% and sees the bonus rounds triggered more often.

There’s also an Autoplay button which lets you set the game running for up to 100x without any input needed, although you can pre-set any win or loss limits that will stop the spins at any time.

Online casino games developer Betsoft has released a couple of similar games, starting with the Mad Scientist, and then moving logically on to the Madder Scientist video slot. This Einstein-inspired character is in the unique 3D style that Betsoft games are so well known for, and he helps punters to bonus features where chemicals are mixed for real cash awards, along with expanded wild reels and respins.

Weird Science, by the Habanero games developer, is a brightly coloured cartoon slot, where barrels of toxic waste, frogs, chemicals and microscopes help to spin up features such as scatter pays, high-paying free games and a mad scientist who triples any win-lines that he completes as a wild symbol.

You don’t have to be interested in scientists and the discoveries of the past to be interested in the Einstein Eureka Moments video slot. It looks great, with high-quality characters and plenty of nice animated sequences to go with them and of course, the gameplay is of an equally high standard, with a guarantee of fair play from independent testing labs.

There’s a wide bet range, which makes it suitable for players who just like to stake a tiny amount, through to high rollers looking to land some massive rewards, and while the Double Bubble option will see bonus rounds playing out more often, it doesn’t affect the overall return to player percentage, so it’s up to you whether to take it or not.
