The second in the Fairytale Legends slot series, it’s time to head into the deep dark woods with this Hansel and Gretel mobile slot.
The first Fairytale Legends game, the Red Riding Hood slot machine, was generally well received.
And when you first load Hansel and Gretel you’ll be forgiven for thinking that other than the theme now having a blue rather than red background, and two new characters, the features all seem very similar.
And you’ll be right. They are similar. But not identical.
In fact, the subtle differences make this Hansel and Gretel Fairytale Legends slot just a little more interesting.
What’s wonderful about this series of slots is just the sheer amount of bonus game features you can find hiding in these 5×3 reels.
This Hansel and Gretel slot however, does it over 10 payline (rather than 20) and changed the sticky wilds into stacked wilds.
Why does that make a difference? Honestly, the amount you can win here is about the same as little Red, but the single payline wins are bigger.
Meaning it just feels more satisfying when you get a big win on a 4 or 5 of a kind win.
Better yet, this Hansel and Gretel slot game pays whenever three adjacent symbol come together on a winning payline (explained below).
In short: this NetEntertainment slot game has more wins, better features, and bigger potential wins in a single payline.
There 3 random features which can appear after any spin, there’s the stacked wilds with respins, and 3 bonus feature when you hit the treasure chest scatter; including a fun mini-game, free spins, and instant cash.
Which means, this Fairytale Legend Hansel and Gretel slot online has a beautiful mix of features that allow you to keep spinning, and gives you the occasional big wins.
Players who enjoy video slots with bonus games, much like in the excellent Koi Princess or the Guns n Roses slot, should try this Hansel and Gretel game.
Personally, we find the theme a little lazy, which is why we can’t quite give it a 5 star slot review, but it came very, very, close.

Pays anywhere on the Reels: So instead of wins happening from left to right, or right to left, these pay whenever there is a succession of symbols starting anywhere on the bet line.
So for example, you can get a 3 of a kind win on reels 1, 2, 3. Or on reels 2, 3, 4. Or on reel 3, 4, 5.
Stacked Wilds: The red brick road with the dove eating the bread (we guess the kids are too stupid to follow a road, and therefor need the bread?) is the wild symbol and comes stacked on reels 2 and 4.
Stacked Wilds Re-spin: Whenever a stack of wilds cover the whole reel, you get a wild re-spin, where you can now also get a stack of wilds on reels 1, 2, 4 and 5.
As long as another stack keeps covering the reels, you'll keep getting re-spins.
Comes surprisingly often, considering it generally pays well and is the main feature of this Hansel and Gretel mobile slot game.
Random Bonus Features:
Treasure chest Bonus Features:3 bonus scatter chest symbols anywhere on reels 1, 3 and 5 trigger a random choice of 3 bonuses; much like in the Vikings Go Wild slot game.
In tiny, subtle, ways this is easily the best of the Fairytale Legends slot games.
Not only do you get less paylines, so a smaller minimum bet, but the fact you get wins whenever the symbols are next to each other on a payline keeps the game going quickly.
Add that the wonder spin gives you the highest paid symbol, instead of the medium symbol, and stacked wilds instead of sticky wilds, and we'll pick this Hansel and Gretel slot on mobile of Red Riding Hood every time.
The theme is ok, nothing as special as the Jungle Spirit slot by the same provider, but you don't really care when you've got 7 bonus feature to encounter in these deep dark woods.
