Siberian Storm Review
Theme and Story Line
The Siberian tiger is a majestic beast and
this game cashes in on that in💴 a big way. The snowy backdrop and big cat symbols make
for a wild and windy theme.
This is coupled with💴 more generic jewelry symbols which are
given thematic character by their Russian designs.
Will you brave the snow to claim
your💴 prize?
Graphics, Sounds and Animations
The game is pleasant enough to look at. The
are exotic and well painted even if💴 something a little simpler and cartoony might
have been easier to read on a slot reel.
The music is a very💴 strange choice however and
does not go with the theme at all. At least it only plays during the actual💴 spins.
The
animations are simple but functional.
Siberian Storm doesn't use standard arrangement
of the reels
Siberian Storm slot Gameplay
Despite the somewhat busy💴 looking layout the
central gameplay of Siberian Storm is very simple. You win for symbols on consecutive
reels starting from💴 either the leftmost or rightmost reel.
This coupled with the
3-4-5-4-3 arrangement on the reels, makes for 720 ways to win.💴 This format does make
for some exciting spins as there is a lot to be paying attention to.

Wilds, Bonuses and Free Spins in Siberian Storm slot
There
are three special symbols in Siberian Storm. Scatter symbols💴 play much as they do in
other games. Hit three or more on any combination of reels and you receive💴 a payout.
In
addition to this there are separate Wild symbols. These are less useful than in most
games since the💴 fourth and fifth rows are only three symbols deep each, there are fewer
options for matching the wild than in💴 other games that eschew winlines in favour of
consecutive reel payouts.
The third and final special symbol is the Bonus symbol
💴 represented by the eye of a tiger (cue music...). This Bonus is especially hard to
trigger as you must hit💴 a symbol on five consecutive reels.
Explanation of how the free
spin feature works in Siberian Storm
If you do though, you💴 get 8 free spins. These
reels contain twice as many stacked bonus symbols increasing your chance of hit respins
(up💴 to 240 free spins total per bonus round).
Siberian Storm slot Bet Sizes, RTP and
Variance
The game has a respectable RTP💴 of 96.00%, which is more or less the average
for these sorts of games.
You can expect medium to high variance,💴 so you should factor
that into your bet sizing which, due to the 720-ways payout structure is relatively
inflexible. You💴 bet 50 coins for each spin. As a result bet sizes are limited by the
range of coin values any💴 given site allows.

Conclusion
Siberian Storm is, visually interesting with its 3-4-5-4-3 format, and
its 720-ways💴 is a small twist on a common distribution of winlines.
However, these
minor innovation don’t add very much to a gaming💴 experience that is otherwise very
basic. The average RTP and med-high variance don’t single the game out enough to make
💴 up for this fact.
Overall it ends up being a disappointment.
