About Pogo’s Circus
Pogo’s Circus is not your average, run-of-the-mill Circus-themed slot. Instead, this baffling title from Espresso Games is actually rather creepy and takes a darker look at the circus industry than most other rival developers’ slots. Pogo’s Circus features very Tim Burton-esque graphics and that really ramps up the weirdness and wonderfulness of this one-of-a-kind slot. There are 18 paylines spread over this slot’s 5 reels, and bets will cost a rather steep 1.80 per spin at their cheapest. You can increase the “steps” (number of coins staked per spin) to see your bets rise to 9.00 a game if you wish, though. As for prizes, the best paying symbol in the game is the scatter icon. Landing 5 of these anywhere on the reels can deliver wins worth up to 100x your total stake on the Pogo’s Circus slot.
Special Features
Wild symbols appear as creepy clowns, and these icons can substitute for all other standard paying symbols, namely ringmaster, human cannon, creepy mice and contortionist symbols. Players will note that wilds do not appear on the first reel, but they can double the value of any winning combos in which they play a part. Landing multiple wilds in a winning combination will lead to better and more valuable multipliers.
Scatter icons appear as tickets and landing 2, 3, 4 or 5 of these in any position on the screen will see you win 2x, 5x, 20x or 100x your total bet.
Free spin icons also show up in this game and when you land 2, 3, 4 or 5 of these box symbols on the reels in any position, you will win 2, 5, 20 or 100 free games. You can win additional free spins with this feature.
Bonus Feature
A secondary bonus feature has also been included in this game. It is known as the Knife Throw Bonus and is triggered when 3 or more bonus symbols appear on adjacent reels. In the feature, players can throw knives at assistants. The more successful they are at climbing up through the levels, the more likely they are to double their total bonus win. Players will at least double their prizes with this feature.
