Lovefool Slot Review

Lovefool Slot RTP, Details & Wager Limits

The setup in the Lovefool slot is simple. The action plays out on a 5 reel, 3 row, 25 payline game engine. To create a winner, land 3 or more matching standard symbols or wilds from left to right in a payline, starting from the leftmost reel.

Stakes here range from 5p to £37.50 per spin which is rather unusual. Use the + and – tabs next to the total bet section below the reels to adjust. Autoplay is available if required too. You can run up to 100 autoplay spins or leave them running until you trigger the main bonus feature.

The Lovefool RTP of 96.32% is slightly better than average. Medium to high variance, the bigger wins come from the fixed jackpots. The most you can win per spin is 1,000 x your stake. The max win is 50,000 x your total stake which will come from the Grand Jackpot.

Theme – Audio & Design Features – fall in love

With a love/dating theme, there’s a glossy look to the design in Lovefool. The visuals are all very easy on the eye. There’s a slightly kooky soundtrack playing while you spin. A shame they couldn’t squeeze in Lovefool by Scandi popsters The Cardigans.  Overall, though, the simple design here works pretty well.

The black reels are set against a sea of red hearts. There you’ll find glittery A to 10 royals and a quartet of character symbols. There are 2 men and 2 women looking for love. The most rewarding standard symbol is the chap in glasses who pays 1, 6 or 40 x your total stake if you land 3, 4 or 5 on a payline. There are also wild, scatter and heart symbols which trigger features which we’ll look at below.

Lovefool has been optimised for play on smartphones and tablets as well as desktop and laptop computers. The bright, colourful imagery and straightforward gameplay make the Lovefool mobile slot very playable.

Lovefool Bonus Features

A slot with a slightly cheesy romance theme doesn’t immediately make us think of innovative bonus features but that’s just what you’ll find in Lovefool. There are 3 bonus features. As well as expanding wilds and scatter awards with multipliers, there’s a streak respin feature where you could scoop a bumper jackpot prize worth a cool 50,000 x stake.

Expanding Wilds feature

The gift box is the game’s wild symbol. This can land on reels 2, 3 and 4 only and substitutes for all the standard symbols. Whenever a gift box appears, it expands to turn the whole of that reel wild. This is known as the Expanding Wilds feature and can lead to 3 wild reels on each spin.

Scatters Bonus feature

The heart symbol can land on reels 1, 2 and 3 only. The heart symbols come with cash values attached between 1 and 100 x your total stake. To win these prizes, you’ll need to land 2 of the bouquet scatter symbols on the same spin. Then the following occurs:

• Cash Prize: 1 of the bouquets will turn into a heart and reveal a cash prize
• Multiplier: the other bouquet will reveal a multiplier

The values from all the hearts on show on that spin are added together. That amount is then boosted by the multiplier to give you your overall payout.

Valentines Bonus feature

The Valentines Bonus feature is triggered by landing 3 bouquet scatters on the same spin. 2 of the bouquets will become hearts with cash values attached with the third transforming into a multiplier.

Those hearts, plus any other hearts from the triggering spin are held and the reels spin again. The respins continue until there’s one where no new heart or Special Award symbol hits. When you’re out of respins, the value on the hearts are added together then boosted by the multiplier.

The Valentines Bonus feature also offers a shot at landing 3 potential fixed jackpot prizes. Each Special Award symbol that lands will reveal Minor, Major or Grand. If you collect 3 of the same Special Award symbol, you’ll win the associated jackpot prize:

• Minor Jackpot = 250 x total stake
• Major Jackpot = 2,500 x total stake
• Grand Jackpot = 50,000 x total stake

Lovefool Review Summary – better than expected 

I often find these romance-themed games a little too cheesy for my taste. I was pleasantly surprised by what we found in the Lovefool slot though. The design has a hint of romance without being totally over the top. It was the features that caught the eye here though.

With expanding wilds, you can get 3 wild reels per spin. This makes it easier to win the 1,000 x stake max win per spin. However, it’s all about the Valentines Bonus feature where Special Award symbols can lead to 50,000 x stake payouts.

In Lovefool, you’ve got a very playable slot come Valentine’s Day. If you want an alternative tale of dark love and intrigue, the Immortal Romance slot by Microgaming focuses on vampires. It comes with 4 free spins features, a high 96.68% RTP and max wins of 12,150 x stake.
