About Cluedo Cash Mystery Slot

For those few who don’t know, Cluedo is a classic British board game in which players have to deduce who the culprit is in a murder mystery scenario. It has been the inspiration for a few slots over the years, as it’s cast of eccentric characters and old-skool English country house backdrop are a perfect source of ideas for narrative and features.

In this case the five reels are set up with a vintage car and stone fountain either side and dark, foreboding night skies above. The mood is set and our list of usual suspects populate the reels: Mrs. Peacock, Colonel Mustard, Professor Plum, Mr. Green, Dr. Orchid, and Miss Scarlet.

As ever with WMS the visuals are excellent, as is the soundtrack, and with a medium variance, and a huge variety of modifier and free spins combinations triggering regularly, this is a slot to appeal to all types of player.

RTP, Variance and Top Payout

Cluedo Cash Mystery Slot has a middling risk level – that means a fairly even distribution of wins – you won’t be waiting 100s of spins to hit a payout. The RTP is probably just above average at 96.5%, and your top payout is 12,000x. Remember, this is the most the game will pay on one spin but in reality getting even close to this value is extremely unlikely. Most big wins come in the region of 1,000x to 5,000x, though of course every now and then the game will throw up a big, big one.

Symbols and Paytable 

There are lots and lots of symbols in this game. The standard low value ones are the Royal Cards, Ace through to Queen. There is also a pipe, a feather and a Cluedo logo, which is the highest value at 20x for five on a line. Look out as well for the Wild which is there to substitute for all regular symbols to form wins.

There are also 17 scatters in total represented by characters, rooms and murder weapons. These are key to unlocking all the free spins and modifiers.

Gameplay and Features

Free Spins Feature

Even though there is only one additional feature on the offer in Cluedo Cash Mystery – free spins – you should take under consideration that thanks to the 17 scatters, there are 180 combinations of free spins and modifiers. Scatters land on reels 1, 3, and 5.

Here is how it works:

Reel 1 – Weapon Scatters

Weapon Scatters appear only on reel 1. Their only task is to determine how big the win multiplier will be during the feature. Land pipe, wrench, candlestick, knife, or revolver, and you will get a 2x to 6x win multiplier.

Reel 3 – Room Scatters

As for room Scatters, they only appear on reel 3. Their role is to determine the number of free spins awarded. Depending on whether you land lounge, kitchen, study, hall, conservatory, or library, you will get 5, 8, 10, 12, 15, or 25 free spins.

Reel 5 – Character Scatters

Reel 5 is reserved for characters and our suspects will get you one of a number of modifiers.

Land Mrs. Peacock, and get extra spins – each time Mrs. Peacock appears you will get one additional free spin. Colonel Mustard will secure expanding Wilds. With him in play each time a Wild appears on the reels it will expand to cover the entire reel. Meanwhile, Professor Plum comes with multiplier Wilds, which boost wins with 2x, 3x, 4x, or 5x multipliers when they form part of a winning combination.

Next is Mr. Green, the priest, who offers expanding symbols. Before the Free Spins begin, one of the symbols is randomly chosen to be the expanding symbol during the feature. Dr. Orchid activates win both ways, so you can land winning combinations starting both from the leftmost and the rightmost reel. Finally, there is Miss Scarlet, which adds persistent Wilds that lock on the reels when they land.

Our Verdict

Cluedo Cash Mystery is an excellent new slot game with a broad appeal that should make it a popular addition to slot sites in 2021. There is a lot to love about this game – the awesome design and slick reel animations set the mood, and the sheer variety of combinations of free spins and modifiers mean things never get boring. What you’ll be looking for is a combination of a high value multiplier on reel 1, high value spins total on reel 3, and of course a good modifier on reel 5, like further multipliers or expanding wilds. This one can pop some really big payouts too so have fun and good luck with your sleuthing!
