Shimmering Woods
Shimmering Woods slot from Play’n GO takes you on a trip to an enchanted forest on a hunt for diamonds. These excellent gems not only shimmer, but are able to split themselves into halves to bring more wins as it allows the game to go from a standard 243 pay-lines to a huge maximum of 7,776 ways to win. That’s up there with some of our our higher volatility games like the El Paso Gunfire slot with its X-Nudges.
Pop on your wellies and let’s explore. As Marilyn Monroe once sang’ Diamonds are a chimp’s best friend!”
The Graphics
A rather cheerful coppice makes up the background to this slot while there is an abundance of fairy dust, mushrooms and crystals, too. The soundtrack is an ethereal number that fits in with the whole tree elf theme and the animated leaves falling and fluttering from the trees is a nice touch. It’s a far cry from the House of Doom 2 slot, another Play’n GO title, that is for sure!
The design here is spot on as it to be expected from Play’n GO.
