Game Overview

We’ve all been there, at least those in my age bracket – where a night out at the local bar has been the start of a romance. You have a few drinks, build up the courage to talk to someone you’ve been eyeing up all night, there is a spark, and you end up dating. It used to take effort, unlike today, where everyone has catalogues (dating apps) they can flip through on their mobile phones and a screen to hide behind while meeting new people. I get the convenience, but I’d much prefer meeting and getting to know people on the off chance than picking and choosing based on their profiles. It seems Red Tiger Games agrees with me, at least, as Midnight Romance reminds us how it used to be done. This slot has 5 reels, 3 rows, 20 paylines, a 96% RTP, and the potential to payout up to 19,894x the stake.

The Midnight Romance slot focuses on a night out for a beautiful lady and the potential suitors she meets throughout the night. She has quite the stereotypes lining up, too, with a Musician, a Businessman, and a stud all lining up to try it on. The thing is, you end up rooting for these guys, as whenever their symbols land next to the permanently placed woman, wilds, multipliers, and respins can occur. More wilds can impact the gameplay, too, via Shaker symbols that can convert into regular or expanding wild multipliers. These features all carry over into a free spins round, which, in my opinion, is rather lacklustre.

Do you stand a chance of getting this slot’s number? Or will your cheesy lines lead to a slap to the face and a loss of playing balance? I suggest dolling yourself up and hitting the Midnight Romance demo slot below. You never know; you might just get lucky!

Midnight Romance Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols

In the same way I’m not a fan of romance movies; this isn’t a slot theme that interests me either. That’s not to say there haven’t been some tremendous romantic slots released over the years, however. The Immortal Romance slot from Microgaming, for one, is considered a legendary title. Sure, it’s dated now, but it is still a favourite of many due to a 12,150x max win and four free spin variations. Other popular soppy slot games here on our site include PG Softs’s Reel Love demo and the Wild Love game from Endorphina if you’re looking for more releases to try out within this genre.

The next question many of you will have about Midnight Romance is whether the paytable and its payouts will catch the eye. Well, four symbols share a 25x return for a five-symbol combo, and they are the Wild symbol, which also substitutes for regular symbols and the Three Male Characters. Next is the Handbag, which pulls in wins of up to 7.5x, the Make-Up Kit with a max return of 5x, and Car Keys worth up to 4x. The Ace and King deliver wins of up to 3x, and rounding off the paytable are the Queen, Jack, and Ten, which all pay up to 2.5x.

Will the staking options turn out to be a match made in heaven when eyeing up your bankroll? That’s something you’ll have to decide, but players can spin the reels on Midnight Romance from a minimum of €0.10 up to a maximum of €40.

Midnight Romance Slot Base Game & Modifiers

The base game throws up some interesting features, but before I get into those, let’s look at the payout mechanics. The Midnight Romance slot is played across a 5×3 reel format that offers 20 paylines. Depending on the symbol, you’ll receive a payout when two or three are matched across a payline from left to right.

Shaker Multiplier Wilds

To the top right of the reels, you’ll notice two neon signs that display random symbols when you spin. The first will hold either short or tall glass, while the second holds a random multiplier value between 1x and 10x. Essentially, whenever Shaker symbols land on the reels, that symbol is modified per those in the Neon signs.

  • Short Glass: This turns the Shakers into Wild symbols with the random win multiplier value.
  • Tall Glass: This turns the Shakers into Super Wild symbols that are 1×3 in size, with the random win multiplier value.

Framed Position Bonus

The three central positions on each of the second, third, and fourth reels have a frame around them. The Pretty Woman, also a wild symbol, occupies the middle position of the three on every spin, and certain features trigger whenever potential suitors land on either side. If both positions are occupied, the free spins bonus round triggers, something I’ll get into shortly. If just one is occupied, the following occurs:

  • The Atheltic Man: This clones this symbol vertically and turns all instances of this Atheltic Man into wild symbols.
  • The Businessman: This transforms all instances of the Businessman into wild symbols holding a 3x multiplier. If multiple instances of this symbol are involved in a winning combo, only one of those values is applied to the win. However, if a Cocktail wild is involved in the same combination as a Business, their multipliers are multiplied before they’re applied to the total win.
  • The Musician: If the Musician lands, all instances of that symbol will convert into wilds. If no wins are created as a result, all wilds are locked in place for respins until a a winning combination is created. Furthermore, the left Neon sign shows only a Tall Cocktail Glass during the respins.

Midnight Romance Slot Bonus Features

All the above features play a part in the main free spins bonus, which triggers each time two men symbols occupy the positions next to the lady.

Free Spins Feature

Once triggered, you’ll receive 10 free spins of the reels. During this feature, only the Tall Glass occupies the left-sided Neon position above the reels. This feature is re-triggerable, meaning you’ll receive an additional 10 free spins each time two men occupy the positions next to the pretty lady.

Bonus Buy

You can use the Buy Bonus feature if you want to skip the awkward silences, the small talk, and the effort needed to score on Midnight Romance. This costs 50x your current stake and guarantees the free spins bonus.

Pros

  • Plenty of base game features keep you interested as you hunt the free spins bonus.
  • A solid max win for a low to medium variance slot.

Cons

  • A very cheesy theme.

Midnight Romance Slot Review Final Thoughts

Admittedly, the theme is on the cheesy side, but if you can look past that, the Midnight Romance slot has plenty going for it. Red Tiger has crammed in Wilds, multipliers, respins, expanded wilds, and a free spins mode, and all these features gel together quite nicely. It’s not what I’d call a great slot, but it’s far from bad.
