Macarons Slot Review

A few years ago a bakery opened up around the corner from my office. At the time I had a reasonably trim belly, maybe with an inch or two of puppy fat. In other words, I wasn't lean and mean, but I was perfectly healthy.
I remember the first time I strolled by the window and something caught my eye: Like manna from heaven, a colorful array of Macarons adorned the display. You know those moment's in a movie where you hear an angelic choir? Well, that was my moment.

Being the kind-hearted soul that I was, I bought a dozen for my co-workers. By the time I arrived at the office, there were 4 left! That was the beginning of my slow descent to an expanded waistline.
Reminding me of the nightmare today is Macarons, a video slot by Endorphina designed to tantalize on pretty much any device (P.C, mobile or tablet).
The loading screen sets an elegant tone of whats to come, with the full selection of Macarons in all their splendor. French romanticism abounds and I could feel my eyebrows furrowing up suggestively at passers-by (yet another warning from H.R – that's all I need!). I started planning a romantic evening with my girlfriend before realizing I actually had to play this slot for review purposes…

Gameplay

Macarons is a high volatility slot with 5 reels and 20 paylines. Naturally, macarons form a large contingent of the symbols. Joining them are: a hunky man, beautiful woman, and, a picture of the pair dancing. The wild is a champagne bottle and can substitute for all other symbols except the scatter, which is a bonus icon.
The controls are a standard Endorphina design which put functionality above style. Up top are Credits, while down below are Bet, Menu (including Paytable), Total Bet (plus Adjustor), Auto, Spin and Lines.
There's no Turbospin, so try not to be in a rush.

Features

• After each winning spin in regular play, there is a “Take Risk” option in which you can double your money by just choosing a higher card than the dealers.

• 3 or more scatters anywhere activates 20 re-triggerable Free Spin, during which, all wins are multiplied by 4!

Maximum Win

The maximum Win in Macarons is 500 000 coins. My own little bakery perhaps?

Performance

The graphics breathe sophistication on every level and are expertly rendered. French music in the background made me expect to see a mime artist walking by at any moment – and I hate mimes! For that reason, I wasn't a fan of the tunes. Likewise, the sound effects had a bit too many “ooh la las” to gain my approval.
Performance wise everything was smooth sailing.

Conclusion

To all the romantics out there – play this slot now!
For everyone else: this game's got a great feel and a fantastic Free Spins feature with impressive multipliers. Do you really need anything else? Except for perhaps a sweet treat on your desk to munch on…
