Game Overview

Just when you thought you’d seen every possible slot theme, something comes along, making you realise that game providers can be creative with pretty much anything. In the case of the Hacksaw Gaming slot we’re reviewing today, the humble yet rich in Vitamam A Carrot takes centre stage. Confused? Then let’s get you up to speed with some basic stats about this game. King Carrot is a 7-reel grid slot operating on the cluster pays mechanic with an RTP of 96.30% and a top win of 10,000x bet.

Grouping huge clusters of symbols is the key to your success in this slot game, and helping you in this mission is the King Carrot symbol. He will replace a randomly selected lower-value symbol when he appears, giving you the chance to land some potentially huge wins. Trigger the free spins bonus, and all replacement symbols will remain active for the duration of the feature, further increasing the possibility of a substantial hit.

If you’re like me, you won’t be able to resist seeing how Hacksaw has managed to get creative with such a bland vegetable and if they have made a successful game out of it. All is revealed in our review, where you can try the free play King Carrot demo slot for yourself.

King Carrot Slot Theme, Stakes, Paylines & Symbols

It made quite a change seeing a vegetable as the headline symbol when I opened up King Carrot today, as more often than not, when searching through online slots to play, it’s the melon or cherry that seems to be used more than anything. I guess this originates back to old-school one-arm bandits, though, where these were often one of the big symbols you’d hope to see spin in for a hefty payout. If you’d like to reminisce a little with old-style symbols, be sure to try out Pragmatic Play’s Might Munching Melons slot and the Inspired Gaming release Cherry Power Boost.

Our next port of call is the paytable, and as always, we’ll kick things off from the top, where the Carrot has the highest value, awarding 500x for clusters of 49. Next, we have higher paying additionals shared by four symbols, with the Raspberry, Pear, Gooseberry and Strawberry all sharing returns of 5x if 14 or more symbols are part of a win. Moving onto the lower-paying symbols, these come in the form of Blueberry, Lemon, Apple and Pear, and all have an equal payout of 2x when 14+ form part of a win. That just leaves the Wild to tell you about, which doesn’t have a monetary value of its own but will substitute for all other regular symbols.

We end this section with the staking options on King Carrot, which align with the standard bet sizes offered by Hacksaw Gaming in their slots. Players can start the reels spinning at a minimum of €0.20, with the maximum bet on the game reaching €100.

Base Game & Modifiers

Joining in on the fun with Hacksaw Gaming and King Carrot online slot, players will get to spin across a 7×7 reel set, where the cluster pays mechanic will be in operation. Therefore, wins are created and awarded when at least five matching symbols are touching adjacently anywhere within the playfield. Further in-game bonuses and features are explained in more detail below.

Bird Attack

At random on any spin, the Bird Attack Modifier can trigger. Initially, a bird will swoop over the reels before removing at least one and up to all rows and columns of symbols. New symbols will then drop down to fill the empty spaces and bring you additional chances to win. Players should note that scatters and wilds will always remain in place during the swoop part of this modifier.

King Carrot

Each time a King Carrot symbol lands in view, a random lower-paying symbol will be selected to be replaced. All instances of the selected symbol will then be replaced with the carrot symbol. Following any wins this may award, the reels will spin again with all selected symbols once more, converting into carrot symbols. Furthermore, this respin gives you the chance to land additional King Carrot symbols.

Epic King Carrot

During a symbol replacement, it’s possible for 1 – 3 Epic King Carrot symbols to appear. These will cause a multiplier of either x2, x3, x4, x5, x10, x25, x50, or x100 to drop down from above and land on a randomly selected carrot symbol.

King Carrot Slot Free Spin Feature

When 3 or more of the free spin scatter symbols land in the base game on King Carrot, the Carrot Carnage bonus game will be triggered. Players will be awarded 10 free spins to begin the bonus, and each symbol replaced by carrot in this feature will remain in play for the duration of the bonus.

Bonus Buy

Those playing from a jurisdiction where the bonus buy feature can still be accessed on a slot can trigger the bonus game instantly on King Carrot. Head straight to the excitement of the Carnage bonus game for the cost of 110x your stake.

Pros

Fun theme that has been well presented.
Good max win of 10,000x.

Cons

Not as feature rich as other grid slots from Hacksaw.

King Carrot Slot Review Final Thoughts

Hacksaw Gaming constantly produces fun-themed slots that are exciting to play, and King Carrot is another game that fits perfectly into that bracket. What I particularly liked about the slot is that it's possible to achieve big wins through the King Carrot symbol landing in the base game without triggering the free spins bonus. Yes, of course, the bonus round will always be better, but it's always nice to know that a base game is capable of something epic and not just a filler for the main event.
