About this Slot
Shakespeare is a history-themed slot with a classic aesthetic from Monstrums. The game features a 6-reel, 5-row grid with Pay Anywhere paylines, an RTP of 96.5%, high volatility and a maximum win of 5,000x.
Wins cascade as matched symbols are removed and the grid refills. Ink Blots land on the grid and carry multipliers ranging from x2 to x75, applying to all wins formed during the spin they appear on. Up to 5 Ink Blots can stick in place between consecutive spins.
Playbills trigger bonus modes when four or more land on a single spin. Landing 4 Playbills opens Star-Cross'd Spins, which awards 10 free spins with increased Ink Blot frequency. Landing 5 Playbills opens Ghost Spins, also awarding 10 free spins, where Ink Blots reach multipliers of up to x75 and remain locked to the grid for the duration. Landing 6 Playbills opens Curtain Call, which awards 10 free spins with a multiplier that starts at x2 on the first spin and absorbs all Ink Blots that land, increasing without ever resetting until the bonus ends. During any bonus round, landing 3 additional Playbills adds 5 more spins.
Four bonus buy options let you trigger features directly. Muse Boost costs 3.25x per spin and activates from the buy menu. Star-Cross'd Spins costs 55x bet. Ghost Spins costs 155x bet. Curtain Call costs 320x bet.
