About Fairytale legends: Hansel and Gretel

After the immense success of 2016’s NetEnt Rocks series, it is no surprise that NetEnt decided to do it again, and Hansel and Gretel looks set to pick up where Red Riding Hood left off in terms of gameplay.The slot is likely to be, as Red Riding Hood is, a five-reel, twenty payline slot with an RTP of around 96.5%. 

Gameplay

 The most exciting feature of Fairytale Legends: Red Riding Hood is the Beware the Wolf bonus game, in which you play as Red Riding Hood, attempting to negotiate the dark forest on the way to grandma’s house, picking up anything up to a staggering 20x multiplier on wins along the way.It is notable that hansel and Gretel is another story that involves its protagonists taking a walk through a forest, so it is likely that there will be a similar bonus round with the newest Fairytale Legends slot.One thing we can know for sure is that Fairytale Legends: Hansel and Gretel is going to be a great looking slot with excellent gameplay, and we can’t wait!
