The Three Musketeers

Fairy tales are a favorite theme that is mined by slot machine developers, so Three Musketeers certainly fits the bill. And in the hands of Quickspin, players can be assured of a beautifully designed, immersive slot machine experience with the kind of free spins that can break the bank.

The game has five reels and three rows, framed by roses on the vines and set in a countryside at sunset. There are 20 pay lines, and for once they're subtly visible along the sides of the reels.

Icons include the royal playing card symbols – jack, queen, king, and ace – in rich muted colors; a villain with a rapier, a woman with a knife and a non-plussed gentleman; and of course the Three Musketeers themselves. Some part of the Three Musketeers can appear as a single icon, or they can appear head-to-toe and take up an entire reel.

The jester is the wild card, and this may be our favorite-looking wild. In any case, it can substitute for any icon you need it to be ever except for the bonus/scatter. It can also take up an entire reel. And when it makes a winning combination, it may include a multiplier up to four times your bet.

The sword icon, also one of our favorites of all time, is the scatter. When at least three show up on the reels, you'll trigger ten free spins and it pays three times your bet for that spin. During the free spins round, the wild cards will nudge up or down in order to try to build a win for you. Also, the Musketeers all substitute for each other, considerably upping your chance at scoring a win.
