Kamasutra - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

Kamasutra is a five-reel slot that conveys the player to the heart of India. Holy books, yogis and positions from the Kama Sutra adorn the reels. The highest value symbol is a woman in a red headdress. Medium value symbols show a man and woman in various positions of romantic embrace, with the usual high playing cards making up the lowest paying additions.

A holy book scatter will award free spins if you can land three or more, and there is a special wild featuring a man in a blue turban.

Bonus features really set this slot apart. Not only are there plenty of free spins on offer, which come with additional wilds, but also you also have the option to gamble your winnings on the flip of a card. This is a particularly exciting feature and means the fun doesn’t stop when the reels do!

You can sample this and other 5 Men Gaming free play slots right here at Slots Temple.

Theme, graphics & music

This is certainly a theme that we haven’t encountered before. Everything is designed around the ancient Kama Sutra text, which makes for a slot that feels unique from the off.

Set in the middle of a verdant pasture and flanked by mangrove trees, the reels have an immediately spiritual vibe. A giant velvet-draped bed in the middle of the glade sets the tone for what is to come, with the symbols predominantly taking the form of positions from the Kama Sutra.

The symbol design is ornate, with the figures resembling watercolour paintings; however, it is the music that really stands out. A lively sitar accompanies the spinning reels, with every win serenaded by an evocative string flourish.

In terms of pure functionality, we would have liked to see some more options - including duration and loss/win limits on autospin - but we loved the originality of this slot.

Kamasutra RTP & volatility

Kamasutra has an RTP of 95.45 per cent and high volatility, so it can be more erratic than most. There is an attractive top payout of 1,726x, but you will need to be extremely patient in pursuit of wins like this.

How to play Kamasutra

With its free spins and gamble feature, Kamasutra can seem to throw players in at the deep end; however, our short guide should see you safely through your first spins:

1. Kamasutra conveniently displays all the required information on one screen. Press the i button to learn about the paytable, bonus features and more general game rules.

2. Pressing i again will return you to the game.

3. The bet controls are at the bottom of the screen. Use the + and - buttons on the credit box to increase/decrease your wager.

4. Autoplay is available, but it is somewhat limited. You can toggle it on and off using the on/off switch to the right of the reels. There are no loss/win limits and autospins must be stopped manually.

5. Determine your budget, then press the start button to set the reels in motion.

Bet & win sizes

Kamasutra’s minimum bet size is 0.10 and the maximum is 50. The wild symbol pays the most and you can expect 1,000x your stake if you manage to land five.

Let’s see what’s on offer across the paytable for five matching symbols:

- Blue turban wild = 1,000x
- Free spin scatter = 500x
- Red headdress = 500x
- Lovers facing each other = 300x
- Lovers facing away from each other = 300x
- Lovers in red = 200x
- Kneeling lovers = 200x
- Ace = 150x
- King = 150x
- Queen = 100x
- Jack = 100x
- Ten = 100x

The paylines in Kamasutra are fixed at 10. The most you can win is 1,726x.

Kamasutra bonus features

While just two bonus features might not seem particularly generous, they can be extremely lucrative if luck is on your side:

- Free spins

Free spins are awarded if the player manages to land three or more holy book scatters, which results in 11 free games. Best of all, these rounds come with static wilds - if a wild lands anywhere on the reels, it remains in place for the rest of the spins!

- Gamble feature

This feature is active on any spin. If a winning combination forms, the gamble button at the bottom of the screen will light up and players will have the chance to gamble their winnings on a card game. The mechanics are very simple: the player must guess whether a turned over card will be red or black. Guess correctly and they will get double their winnings; guess incorrectly and it is back to the reels with nothing.

Concluding thoughts

Truly original slots are hard to come by. All too often, developers fall back on tried and tested tropes such as Ancient Egypt or fruit machines, which are then repeated ad nauseam. It is refreshing to see something totally different and we must give 5 Men Gaming massive congratulations for developing a theme that we have never seen before. This slot is big and bold - and potentially not suitable for work, given the revealing nature of some of the symbols! - but the verdant pastures and spiritual feel are beautiful, compelling and quite relaxing.

Any free spins are welcome, but even more so when they come with static wilds. The opportunity to gamble your winnings means that every spin bristles with tension and excitement.

If travel themed slots give you wanderlust, why not try the Wild Bazaar slot here at Slots Temple?
