Game of the Week
Peaky Blinders Slot: Pragmatic Play, RTP: 96.50%
The first thing to mention is that this isn't a new online slot, but it's brand new to stateside casinos. It's based on Peaky Blinders, a hit UK TV show based on the real-life Birmingham gang that ran the streets from 1880-1910 and was involved in everything from gambling and racketeering to politics.
The show has already aired in the US and has proved widely popular. Following its success, this month saw online casinos in the USA list the Peaky Blinders Slot, which is developed by Pragmatic Play and the studio's first-ever branded game.
Set on 5x3 reels with 20 lines, this game brings all your favorite characters to life on the reels - that's Michael, Polly, Arthur, and Thomas. There's also a wild symbol that subs, and two types of scatter symbols, leading to three bonus rounds.
- Shelby Betting Shop Bonus: Hitting a single betting shop bonus scatter on reel 5, and all character symbols on the reels will get an instant cash payout awarded.
- By Order of the Peaky Blinders Bonus: If the By Order of the Peaky Blinders scatter lands on reel 5 with no other scatters on the reels, you'll get a re-spin where all character symbols and wilds transform into a single symbol.
- Free Spins: Land two regular scatters (the game logo) anywhere on the reels with one of the other scatters on reel 5, and you'll get the corresponding free spins bonus round. It starts with 8 or 10 spins, depending on which type of scatter was on reel 5 and the bonus feature active.
Ready to play? Then it's time to get in on the action and set your bets from $0.20 to $100 at any of these ranked and rated Pragmatic Play Casinos.
