Carnaval slot review
Carnaval is a Microgaming slot with five reels, three rows and nine paylines, dressed in a Mardi Gras theme. It has no free spins round; instead, scatters anywhere on the reels pay from 2x up to 50x the stake, and five Carnaval logos on a line pay the top line prize of 5,000 coins.

How Carnaval plays
Carnaval is rated low volatility, and it plays as a straightforward line slot across nine paylines. Trumpets and women in carnival headdresses are among the symbols on the reels, and a wild substitutes for the others apart from the scatter.
Line prizes are quoted in coins. Five Carnaval logos pay 5,000 and four pay 800, while five women in headdresses pay 600, the third-highest line prize.
Scatter pays
The scatter is the game’s only special feature besides the wild. It pays wherever it lands, with no need to sit on a payline: the prize starts at 2x the stake and rises with each extra scatter, up to 50x for five.
Scatters do not open free spins or a bonus game. The prize is added on the spin they land, which keeps every result inside the base game.
