Cupid is famous the world over for being able to play match-maker, floating in with his angel wings, bow along with heart-shaped arrows. Today, however, he isn’t matching you up with another human being, but rather an online slots game – Whole Lotta Love to be precise. This isn’t another randomly themed slot but rather a game with a progressive jackpot. Thus expect winning amounts that could potentially see you paid out sums that are well, and truly life-changing. This isn’t the only feature you’ll find in our subject, but we’ll touch on them all as we go.
The casino game software studio responsible for developing Whole Lotta Love is Blueprint Gaming. They’ve been around the block, having created myriad games now spread across online casinos far and wide. In this game, they’ve gone for a ‘love’ theme, with Cupid appearing all over the screen and on the reels. Blueprint is a competent studio, and therefore you’ll find the graphics definitely up to scratch. There are five reels in total, hosting 20 paylines on which winning combinations can occur. This is a fairly standard amount, but very capable in serving up the wins. The game is exactly the same when playing on mobile as it is on desktop, with iOS and Android being supported.
The betting limits are quite broad when it comes to wagering per spin. It starts all the way down at £0.20 and maxes out at a very high £100.00. The good news here is that players of all budget types are accommodated, however winning the highest possible base payout is only possible if playing at the maximum bet. Playing at £100.00 per spin is a lot of money for any player, but where this game is different is that the base jackpot is not the objective, but rather the progressive jackpot. While your chances of winning progressives are higher at max bet, it is not a requirement.
The symbols in Whole Lotta Love aren’t too different from the normal online video slots formula. There are your standard base icons, of which you’ll need to land 3, 4 or 5 of a kind combinations to win cash. The base symbols with lower value are the standard playing cards – 10, J, Q, K and A. The king and ace are the two highest valued of these. There’s also the higher value base symbols, which are all synonymous with the theme of the game.
Look out for the Big Money Bonus symbol, as this symbol can be as exciting as it sounds.
The bonus features are all quite unique, and not quite as standard as we’ve become accustomed to. Landing 3 of the Big Money Bonus symbols on reels 2, 3 and 4 on the same spin triggers the feature of the same name as the symbol. In this feature, you’re taken up into the clouds and given a lovely cash prize.
The Cupid Trail Bonus is another interactive feature. It sees you move along a rainbow trail picking hearts which results in multipliers, giving everyone potentially epic wins. There’s one last bonus – Instant Win Bonus. Here you pick a random symbol to become a multiplier.
Last, and you’ll know full well by now, there’s a progressive jackpot. It’s part of Blueprints Jackpot King progressive system, and if the pot has grown to a large enough amount will make Cupid’s arrow seem like a blunt object to anyone who wins it.
This was a unique game to play and ended up being quite a lot of fun with a massive splash of excitement. Knowing that a progressive jackpot worth millions of pounds could fall into your lap at any second is something that will draw you in and give you moments of breath-taking thrills. The bonus features also aren’t as stock standard as we’ve become used to, making it feel like a fresh new genre of online slot. Whole Lotta Love has plenty of love to give, and you could be the one who gets it all.
