The world is getting set for the Rio Carnival. The action will begin on February 5. Till Mardi Gras Tuesday on February 9, nothing will matter except for the dancing and drinking. Players at Bovada online casino can celebrate from home through an amazing video slot titled Wild Carnival from the software provider Rival Gaming. The title itself captures the frenzied festivity and there is much more. The introductory clip sets the tempo with spectators watching the clowns on stilts and the samba girls in the parade. What follows is an explosion of color and music.

The high paying symbols create the carnival atmosphere and include tambourine, drum, trumpet, beads, peacock feathers and masks. The trumpet awards the highest line payouts. The low paying symbols are the playing card icons in psychedelic colors and designed like the samba girls’ feathers. The background of the symbols is transparent and this reveals a carnival scene behind the reels. The blue mask is the wild symbol. It appears only on reels 1, 3 and 5 but makes up by expanding over all the rows. Wild Carnival is a 50 paylines online slot game. Usually such online video slots have four rows of symbols. But Rival Gaming has kept only three rows and this will see winning combinations appear more frequently.

Wild Carnival is a feature rich game. Three or more peacock feathers appearing anywhere on the reels trigger the free spins bonus. You will be awarded up to 20 free spins in which all payouts are tripled. An innovative bonus game is played with the beads symbol. Whenever these symbols appear on the reels the bonus bead meter moves ahead by 1. When the meter has reached the value indicated then you are awarded a bonus payout and the meter is reset to zero. Be careful not to change any of the betting parameters otherwise the meter will be reset to zero.

Three or more golden masks anywhere on the reels trigger the bonus game on the second screen. This is the most interesting bonus feature because the samba dancer makes an appearance. But she is without her famous accessories. These are in 16 jewel boxes that are also displayed on the screen. You have to pick six jewel boxes, adorn the samba girl and earn bonus credits. This is a high variance bonus feature because there are many empty jewel boxes. But those that contain accessories pay out handsomely.
