Bayou Richesse Review

Bayou Richesse is the latest slot game to complement the catalog of provider JVL, which invites players to a wildlife resort to get closer to nature and hunt for rewards up to 1,000x the bet.

For those not in the knows, bayou is what they call a marshy or slowly flowing body of water typically found in flat and low-lying areas in the Southern US, so expect the respective environment in the Bayou Richesse slot. It takes players to a wonderful forest where the 5x3 reels with 40 fixed win lines are sitting, and underneath you can spot the serene bayou. A pretty sight indeed. However, it could be even prettier if the graphics were sharper.

Bayou Richesse Slot - Reel Screen

The Bayou Richesse slot is playable on any device, and bets from £0.4 to £100 are accepted, so that should appeal to many. Medium-volatile, the game has RTP ranges, meaning that the return rate can differ significantly depending on where you play. The possible values are 96.03%, 94%, and 88%. Thus, don’t forget to look through the rules carefully before making a deposit at a casino.

The symbol collection consists of 11 regular symbols, which create winning combinations when at least 3 matching ones appear adjacently starting from the leftmost reel.

They are split into two categories - the lower section comprises classic A-9 royals, and the higher lot is made up of flowers, cocktails, sweet buns, crocodiles, and ferries. Five-symbol win lines of card ranks pay from 1.25x to 2.5x the stake, and combinations of five of the higher symbols are worth from 5x to 25x the stake.

Additionally, there are Wilds, which substitute for any of the regulars. They can appear randomly on the three middle reels during the base game, though, in the bonus, they land in a whole different way, covered below.

Landing 3 Scatter symbols on reels 2, 3, and 4 triggers 13 Clockwork Wild Free Spins. On the second spin, stacks of four Wild symbols are added to the reels 2 and 4, which move by one position down and up respectively until they cover the reels entirely by the fifth spin. In the next four spins, Wild stacks continue to nudge until they fade from the reels completely on the ninth spin

On the tenth spin, Wild stacks are added again to the reels, and the nudging process continues until the thirteens and final spin when they fully cover the reels.

Unfortunately, it’s not possible to retrigger the free games.

Review Summary

In conclusion, the Bayou Richesse slot is a questionable slot for sure. The free spins bonus with guaranteed nudging Wild stacks is definitely fun, but aside from that, the game has nothing else to offer. The gameplay really lacks extras, much like the theme lacks depth, and most importantly, the math model also leaves much to be desired with its meager 1,000x top prize. With that being said, there are much better options to choose from out there.

Pros

• Lovely theme
• Free Spins with nudging wild stacks

Cons

• Low production values
• Lack of features
• Poor max win
• RTP ranges
