Scopa Review
Visit the unimaginable beauty of Italy as you travel through different cities in search of wealth. Developed by Habanero, Scopa is absolutely stunning in visuals and in terms of vibrant gameplay too.
Playing on 5-reels with 27 paylines, Scopa is a high volatility slot based on a card game. So, let yourself be taken on a journey and win up to 4,000x your stake.
Design
From the start you’ll see that Scopa is absolutely striking visually. You are situated in a luxurious cabin as you travel across the magnificent cities of Italy. Visiting Genoa, Milan, Naples, Tuscany and Venice - all with different sites to keep you amazed. Not only that, but it moves as you travel and are idly sitting by.
The vision in the background looks incredibly detailed and just like an exquisite card game. Even the symbols on the reels look like they are straight out of a high quality card game with so much detail and charm. Honestly, it’s a complete knockout visually.
Thankfully, the music matches the graceful visuals. It’s a serene track with soft pianos and guitars playing to transport you straight to Italy. The music is catchy in the best way possible without any grating tones. Ambient sounds from the reels and background are soft and easy on the ears. If you want an experience aesthetically, Scopa is one to check out.
Gameplay
Despite it looking impressive, the gameplay is simple. All you need to take note of are the locations unlocked. There’s a map bottom right and you can easily change locations after they unlock for different bonuses.
Traditional settings and payline guides are at the bottom right, with the bet level next to it. The spin button is centred in the middle with the autospin to the right of it. Bets start at 0.15 and can go all the way up to 3,000.
Win Potential
Now the aesthetic and gameplay is excellent, but how is the win potential? Honestly, the RTP is at a satisfying 96.67% - which is superb for an online slot. The maximum payout is 4,000x your stake in the Genoa region with all paylines covered during free spins with the multipliers.
Jackpot hunters will be happy to find out that Jackpot Race runs in this slot too for selected casinos. There are 3 tiers of pots to be won - just ensure that it’s enabled on your slot.
Scopa is a high volatility slot which means that players must have the bankroll to sustain their gameplay. Payouts may not be frequent, but they can be a hefty amount when they do.
Our Verdict
As an adaptation of a card game, Scopa had a lot to live up to. Habanero completely outdid themselves with this slot. This gaming slot has everything from free spins, multipliers to expanding wilds - plus a jackpot as well.
Visuals are beautiful and the sounds fit in great. The only downside to this slot is that it isn’t medium volatility so that new players could enjoy this slot as well. Don’t let that put you off this experience though as it’s refreshingly unexpected. Perhaps one of the best slots Habanero has released.
