Da Vinci Muse Demo Slot - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Introduction 

Da Vinci Muse is an artistically designed online slot from gamemaker High 5. It is played on 5x3 reels with 20 paylines that pay from left to right.

There is a wild that appears in two forms and substitutes for all other symbols apart from the bonus scatter, which triggers a bonus pick game, and the palette symbol, which draws a border where it lands and locks for the next spin. When it helps to form a winning line, the prize has a 2x multiplier. If you collect one of these on each reel, the wild drops onto the reel and locks for three spins.

The free spins featureis triggered when five locked wilds appear on a single spin. During this phase of the game, a minimum of one reel will have an extended wild for all the free games; what’s more, a random 2x multiplier is available.

There are nine standard paying symbols in addition to the Mona Lisa wild in both the base and bonus games. The high-value symbols are Leonardo da Vinci and three of his most famous paintings: Lady with the Ermine, Ginevra de’ Benci, and Portrait of a Musician. These are supplemented by five gems: the diamond, yellow gem, blue gem, green gem and pink gem.

Theme, graphics and soundtrack 

We are transported back to Renaissance times in Da Vinci Muse. The wild is the Mona Lisa and we are treated to three images of some of his other most famous paintings, including the unfinished Portrait of a Musician.

The main symbols are supplemented by gemstones. The reels sit in a gilded frame and are set against a beautiful depiction of Florence’s most famous landmark, the 15th-century cathedral with the duomo to the right and the bell tower to the left.

If you are familiar with the great artist, why not try the Da Vinci Diamonds slot? This is also available to play for free here at Slots Temple.

Da Vinci Muse review: our verdict
 

This is a thoughtfully designed game from High 5, but the features are perhaps a little overcomplicated. Players may find the rules of the game and the description of the features confusing, so we would recommend playing the game in demo mode here at Slots Temple to ease your way in.
There is a generous bet spread, which will help to attract a range of players to a game that also boasts a solid RTP; however, novice players will need to keep a close eye on winning formations and multipliers to understand the game.

The good news is that there are lots of rewarding features in Da Vinci Muse and players can look forward to entertaining sessions once they get to grips with the game.
