About this Slot
Shady Carnival is a horror carnival-themed slot from Vibrant Labs with an RTP of 96.2%, high volatility and a maximum win of 25,000x. The game plays across 5 reels, 4 rows and 12 paylines.
The Wild Banner expands to cover an entire reel and substitutes all other symbols. During Free Spins, the Wild Banner becomes sticky and remains locked in place for the duration of the feature. Each sticky Wild Banner accumulates a running total of multipliers applied to it.
The Multiplier Wheel lands with values ranging from 2x to 100x. When the Multiplier Wheel appears, it broadcasts its value to all active Wild Banners on the reels, then disappears as the next symbol lands.
Three Scatters trigger 8 Free Spins, four Scatters trigger 10 Free Spins, and five Scatters trigger 12 Free Spins. Landing an additional Scatter during the Free Spins round awards one extra spin.
The Hidden Bonus awards 12 Free Spins and guarantees two sticky Wild Banners on the first spin of the feature.
Double Chance costs 2x the bet and increases the chance of triggering bonus features. Multi Spin is priced at 8x the bet. The Bonus buy option costs 100x the bet and grants direct access to the feature. Super Bonus costs 200x the bet, and Mystery Bonus costs 250x the bet and provides direct feature access with an unknown bonus element.
