Moon Princess

Imagine a world where three beautiful anime princesses ruled and played online slots with you.

Sounds like the stuff of dreams doesn’t it? But no, it is the Moon Princess slot from Play’n GO, the people behind Legacy of Egypt, Book of Dead and a whole list of other classics. Let’s play.

The Basics

At first glance, this slot might look a little on the complex side, particularly for players more used to classic games, but you will quickly get your head around all the features like increasing multipliers, enhanced Free Spins and three base game bonuses.

The Graphics

The design in this game could be described as girlie with lots of pastel colours, hearts, bells, stars and moon shapes covering the reels. The three princesses are Love, the brunette in the red outfit, her sister Star, the blonde in blue and finally Storm with her long purple locks hair and a green outfit. This slot is a real looker, just like the Faerie Nights slot from 1X2 Gaming (which also worth a look).

As for the soundtrack? It’s all a bit incongruous. Rock meets techno in a rousing track that becomes more frenetic as your wins increase. I rather like it!

Moon Princess Slot Game Play

Moon Princess slot has a five-reel, five-row grid. There are no pay lines on offer here, instead all your wins are made with three adjacent matching symbols in a row either horizontally or vertically.

The highest paying symbols on the reels are the Princesses, and each of them will give you 30 coins for three in a row, 100 for four and 1000 if you land five matching symbols.

You can also make combos with different princess icons – which makes matches even easier. All in all, Moon Princess is easier to get the hang of than some of Play ‘n GO’s other games like the Ankh of Anubis slot, which had me scratching my head when I first started playing it.

Girl Power
The three princesses take it in turns to be ‘active’. Look to the right of the reels to find out which on is in charge. On any non-winning spin, her special power can be activated and applied to the reels. And here are the superpowers in detail:

• Love transforms icons into other symbols.
• Star adds either one or two extra Wilds to the reels
• Storm hits two symbols with her staff, exploding them and leaving space for brand-new icons.

Cascading Symbols
Each time you make a win, the symbols involved explode and are removed. The rest drop to the bottom. You’ve probably seen this mechanism before, but in the Moon Princess slot these icons aren’t replaced by new ones as the aim of the game is to empty the the grid of symbols.

Manage that and you will trigger the Free Spins bonus.

Multiplier Meter
You’ll find this at the top left of the reels, it’s a pink and gold icon with white wings.

Every time a winning symbol cascades, the multiplier will increase, and it will continue to go up to 20x if you manage to land consecutive winning combos.

The Bonuses

Princess Trinity Feature
Charge up the pink meter to the top and you’ll set off the Princess Trinity feature. It’s time for some re-spins and you’ll see that all three princesses and their powers will become active at the same time.

Free Spins
If you’ve cleared the whole grid of icons, then you will set off the Free Spins bonus feature. Next, you’ll be asked to choose a favourite princess to add her superpowers to your spins:

– Love Princess Power comes with four Free Spins.
– Star Princess Power comes with five Free Spins.
– Storm Princess Power comes with eight Free Spins.

The superpowers are activated on every non-winning spin in the free spins bonus. Plus, there is a multiplier that does not reset, and can top out at 20x your stake.

Charging the meter can give you up to twenty additional free spins. If you manage to clear the reels in the bonus, you will get a 200 times your stake bonus.

Moon Princess Pros and Cons

✅ Feature Rich

❌ Can be hard to trigger the feature (remember this is a high variance game).

Features

FAQs

How do the Moon Wilds Work?
Love, Star and Storm take turns in being in charge.  Three symbols on a pay-line trigger a win and are then removed to make space for symbols dropping from above.  But the best thing is that the middle symbol of the winning combo will change into a Moon Wild, and the progressive multiplier nudges up with each win up to 20x.

How Volatile is Moon Princess?
We would rate this game as highly volatile.

The Monkey Verdict

The Moon Princess slot is a great game to play.

I am a big fan of cascading reels and it’s always nice to see different variations of the feature. My experience with game theory also tells me this is a highly volatile slot.

If you enjoyed Moon Princess you might want to have a spin on the other games in the series, also available at Monkey Casino, Moon Princess 100, Moon Princess Christmas, Moon Princess Power of Love and Moon Princess Trinity.
