Crazy Weather - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

Our Crazy Weather slot review has to be read to be believed. Don’t be fooled by the five reels and 20 paylines. Don’t let the appearance of an everyday weather forecast lure you into a false sense of security. This is a highly original slot that’s not quite like anything else you’ve played. Casimi have really pushed the boat out by giving the weather woman her own distinctive personality and by throwing you into a storm of features.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

Being a weather presenter seems like it should be a relatively calm role. After all, most of the time you’re standing in front of a screen - not the actual weather. That’s unless you’re the weather presenter on a slot machine. Then you can pretty much guarantee dramatic storms, even if you start out floating in a blue sky with a light musical accompaniment. 

Crazy Weather is designed like a weather forecast. Its symbols are the clouds and suns and temperature figures used every day to let people know whether they need a coat or should stay indoors. It’s a conceit we’ve seen in video slots before, though it’s still not common. What sets this one apart is the presenter standing right next to it.

She’s ordinary enough to look at: jeans, t-shirt, glasses and high heels covering a skinny frame. The 3D detail is pretty impressive as she gesticulates. Then she starts making comments. Sometimes very sarcastic comments. Sometimes using language that you wouldn’t hear on a family-friendly teatime broadcast. We can’t remember the last Casimi online slot where they felt obliged to add a disclaimer that the comments in game did not necessarily reflect their own views.

Crazy Weather RTP and Variance

This might be one of those slot games where different casinos set the RTP at slightly different levels. When we played it was at 95.92%, very close to our recommended level of 96%. Watch out for variations, though. 

High rollers tend to prefer high-variance video slots that are more unpredictable but can offer bigger wins. The Crazy Weather slot is somewhere between medium and high, so a little bit more reliable but probably still not for the newbies.

How to Play Crazy Weather

Batten down the hatches, there’s a hurricane coming:

1. You’re presented with on/off buttons for sound when you first load. If you change your mind, the button is at the bottom corner of the main screen.
2. The top button is the menu. It’s standard stuff for a slot machine: help page, paytable and settings. 
3. Those settings include moving buttons from right to left, activating space bar to spin, whether to display your balance, language and separate switches for voices, music and sound effects.
4. Back on the main screen to press the bet button. Choose which stake option best suits your budget.
5. Now you can hit spin, or alternatively go to autoplay for automatic spins with cash decrease, single win and cash increase limits. It’s time to play and have fun.

When you reach your limits, stop.

Crazy Weather Bonus Features

Modern video slots are becoming ever fancier with their bonus features. In the likes of the Book of Dead online slot, they’re a standout part of the game. That’s true of Crazy Weather too:

Moving Wild

Lots of slot games have a wild symbol to act as a substitute. Fewer have more than one. Even fewer have moving wilds, but the wild sun and wild snowflake can do just that. After a re-spin, the sun moves left or the flake moves right until they collide, reach the end or until free spins are triggered.

Free Spins

When the two different wilds collide they make a third: the tornado. This dramatic addition turns every wild into a tornado and can also trigger a bonus round with 10 free spins. Up to seven random symbols in the free spins round will become tornados too.

Crazy Weather Review

It’s safe to say that Crazy Weather is not your typical slot machine. Quirky might be a good word to describe it. Creative, certainly. Some people may object to the weather presenter herself and her less than polite comments, but she certainly makes a refreshing change to standard slot fair. You really need to spin for yourself.
