High up in the Rapunzel’s Tower slot lies a magical big win, but are you wild enough to make the climb?
We love Quickspin mobile games, they’ve created some real gems with the likes of Mayana and The Wild Chase slot topping our play list time and time again.
So it’s a shame that when we opened up this Rapunzel’s Tower mobile slot game, we didn’t get the same excitement as we’ve gotten from past releases.
Maybe they did, maybe they didn’t, but you can’t deny that there’s a lot of similarities between the characters in this Rapunzels’ Tower slot and the Disney movie.
Still, it gives it an odd sense of familiarity that helps, and the way the wild hair locks onto the screen certainly catches your eye.
That’s because the wild hair (one of two wilds symbol, much like in their Goldilocks slot) will lock in place when three or more are on screen, giving you re-spin after re-spin until you get a win.
This is where things get interesting, because every wild hair you get on screen will help the Prince climb the tower to rescue the Princess – a little like in Steam Tower by NetEnt.
Along the way, you can get extra free spins to help you get to the top and catch a 2x multiplier on all further wins. Sounds pretty sweet right? Wrong; the maths don’t add up in this Rapunzel video slot.
That’s because you need to get 24 wilds before you get to the top of the tower and you only get 10 free spins to start with, 14 free spins if you climb the tower.
Honestly? It’s mostly in the fact that this is a fairly low risk game; so you’ll get plenty of smaller wins to keep you ticking along the reels.
And those sticky wilds really can pack a punch, especially as you can get more and more to lock on screen and give you wins of 20x to 40x your bet.
But more than that is hard to find; personally we prefer to heading to eastern fairytales in the Wins of Fortune slot, which pack a far bigger and easier punch.

Standard Wilds: Rapunzel herself is one of the wild symbols, and she can be used to replace any and all symbols on the reels to create a win over these 20 paylines.
She cannot be used to replace a scatter.
Sticky Wilds and Re-spins: Rapunzel's hair is the other wild symbol, and can show up on it's own, acting like any normal wild.
However, when 3 or more show up, these will then lock into place, and you'll get free re-spins after re-spins until a win is created, locking in more wilds if they show up.
Free Spin Bonus: 3 Scatter Rapunzel's Tower bonus symbols will trigger 10 free spins. You'll see the Prince, on the left of the reels, very slowly climb the tower.
And it's only slow because you need a bonus hair wild to show up for him to take one step. 10 steps will give you a +2 free spin, a further 5 another +2, and then... finally... if you managed to take all 24 steps you get your star prize.
In this case a 2x multiplier on any free spins left you might have, which if you are lucky, might be one or two.
We are probably being a little unfair to this Quickspin Rapunzel's Tower slot on mobile.
After all, it's probably no worse than it's Fairy Gate or Mighty Arthur slot, which just showcased wilds as the main feature, and it does have charming graphics and sounds.
But there was something about making us work so hard for a measly 2x multiplier in the free spins that just annoyed us - especially when you consider how many slot machines come with a 2x multiplier in the free spins as standard.
The sticky wilds do give this game quick wins, but if you want beautiful princess, we think the ass-kicking Sakura game is far more entertaining.
