Dusk settles over a forest clearing in The Racaroon S’mores, and a grinning raccoon in a scout neckerchief stands guard on top of a log-framed set of reels. Two enormous marshmallows flank him, one blue and one pink, each held over its own flame. Playtech has built a cosy camping trip around one very busy little collector.
Theme and Gameplay
Camp gear supplies the premium art: a brass lantern on red, an engraved tin mug on purple, a folding chair on blue and a cutlery set on green. Royals from A to 9 are built out of bound sticks and vines, and rope-tied marshmallows carry the prizes, one of them marked 7.50 in this view.
Pays at €5.00 run like this. Lantern and raccoon share the top line at €17.50 for five, €6.50 for four and €2.50 for three. Five mugs bring €7.50, chairs €5, and cutlery €3.50. Ace and King give €2.50 for a full row, while Queen, Jack, 10 and 9 each stop at €1.50.
Slot Features
It all comes down to the Hot Zone, a single spot at reel 3, row 2, and the only place the raccoon can land during the base game. He substitutes for all but the two prize symbols. On arrival he gathers every Cash and Special Prize value showing, then flings fire at one or both marshmallows. Those flames can randomly set off the bonus.
Rewind adds a twist on both sides of that moment. When he misses, the zone may spin back so that he drops in anyway. When he does arrive, some royal positions, chosen at random in number, may roll back and turn into prize symbols, so a thin collection can suddenly grow.
Free Games start with 10 spins, and the trigger activates Zones, Multiplier or both. Each raccoon during the round helps fill whichever meter is unlocked, then applies his current multiplier to all cash and prizes showing and pays the result.
The blue Zones meter rewards extra spins and opens 2, 3, 4 or 5 Hot Zones, spread across row 2 of reels 1 to 5. Filling the pink Multiplier meter also adds spins, while lifting the collector through 2x, 3x, 5x or 10x. With both active, more landing spots and stronger collections push each other along.
Buy Feature skips ahead to the round with both meters running. Its window displays a price of 55.00, adjustable by the small controls alongside.
RTP and Win Potential
Ordinary pays are gentle, with €17.50 the most any symbol returns at €5.00. The real weight sits with collected prizes and that €2,500.00 Mega, particularly when a 10x collector is working. Since so much relies on one reel position, some stretches may feel quiet, and nothing here promises a return.
My Thoughts On This Slot
I like how readable this is. One animal, one square and two marshmallows tell you nearly all you need, and Rewind makes near misses more interesting. The trade-off is that spins without him can seem empty.
