The famous Dungeons & Dragons card game has its own slot machine as well, a game that’s dedicated to the many fans of the genre and which takes us on an adventure of its own inside Crystal Caverns. The game is available at IGT casinos and it can offer high rewards, being a title that has aged fairly well overall.
Dungeons & Dragons: Crystal Caverns will deliver 20 paylines over its 5 reels. It’s a game that involves a Medieval style cast of characters, and which will make use of Tumbling Reels, wild symbols, scatters or free spins. Payout wise, a big reward of up to 5,000x can be delivered through its best combinations.
Betting
Your wager will need to cover all the lines involved in Dungeons & Dragons: Crystal Caverns, so it always has 20 coins in it. The line bet is the part that you may change as you need to, and through which you get from the minimum bet of $0.20, to the maximum one of $2,000. The line bet appears to vary between $0.01 and $100.
Crystal Caverns Jackpot
The D&D logo is your best friend here, as the symbol that’s going to form wins which pay as much as 5,000 coins. It’s a high reward, particularly if you have some extra luck and you form combinations on several lines at a time.
RTP wise, the game disappoints. Its range in this particular area is announced between 92.36% and 94.94%. Even if you use only its maximum potential value as a measuring stick, the game doesn’t do as well as the majority of the modern slots you can try out these days.
Special Features
With a mix of regular and unique features, I think that Dungeons & Dragons: Crystal Caverns offers its players more than enough to keep them interested.
Wild Symbols
Appropriately marked, with a green Wild logo against an elaborate jewelry design, the substitute is one of the symbols which will be helpful to you as you play this slot. You can only use it to help new combinations form, not for their own rewards. All regular symbols may be replaced by these wilds, if this gets you a new or better win.
Tumbling Reels
This is a modern feature, one that’s been used a lot of times in recent slots, but obviously it was still fairly new when Dungeons & Dragons: Crystal Caverns included it in its design. It involves the removal of winning symbols from the reels, allowing for new ones to come in. Additional wins may be formed as part of the same initial paid spin.
Tumbling Treasures Bonus
This is your basic free spins feature, which you can get via symbols marked Bonus. You need three of them, on the first three reels, and the feature is yours. You get 6 free spins at this point. Different symbols are used for most regular symbols, though the jackpot icon and the big reward remains the same (5,000x).
The feature is retriggered with 3, 4 or 5 Bonus icons, this time scattered on all reels. You get 2 to 4 extra free spins if you had 3 scatters, 4 to 10 rounds if you had 4, while with 5 scatters you can trigger 6 to 15 extra spins. At most, you can have 300 free spins when you trigger this feature, that’s the upper limit imposed by the developer.
Design
Involving warriors and mages, along with crystal formations, Dungeons & Dragons: Crystal Caverns looks like a good fit for the theme that’s being covered. The Dungeons & Dragons universe is loved by many, it’s part of the fantasy genre, and IGT did a decent job turning it into a slot machine.
It’s still a dated look these days, it’s not a new slot machine, but it’s playable if you enjoy the card game.
Summary
Dungeons & Dragons: Crystal Caverns offers some unique features and good payouts, but a relatively low RTP which doesn’t recommend it to those that aren’t fans of the original card game.
