Tarasque

Paul Clare
Reviewed by Paul Clare Last updated:

The French used to fear the Tarasque until St Martha lobbed some holy water over the beast and threatened it with a crucifix. It's now one of the most obedient and friendly dragons you'll ever come across, and this amiable creation is offering a 20,000x max win and a fun base game packed full of modifiers.

Tarasque Features

Feature fans are going to fall in love instantly with Tarasque from Print Studios. This game is one big bonus feature and you don't even need to go to a separate area to enjoy all the modifiers. Base game, bonus game, call it what you like, it's all there for you to enjoy the same as everybody else.

Across this 8x8 grid, you'll need to find winning clusters of at least five matching symbols. The four lowest payers will provide 100x for 64 of them while the highest of the four picture symbols provides 1000x for 64 matching symbols.

Morphings & Blessings!

If any symbols land with a blue outline, this tells you that they could form a Morphing Cluster. If they find themselves in a winning group, then they won't just simply disappear, as is the norm, they'll take on the form of one of the symbols next to the cluster and another win will be yours.

As wins occur, you may receive a Celestial Blessing with a multiplier added up to 20x and Wild symbols can also substitute for other paying symbols.

All of these winning clusters help you climb the progressive meter and each section provides you with a brand new modifier. You'll either get Wilds added to the grid, low-paying symbols removed, new Morphing Symbols added or the Tarasque increasing in size until there are no more wins.

As soon as one of the aforementioned features begins, the Tarasque will make its way down out of the tower and appear on the reels as a Wild symbol. It will munch its way through any winning clusters and start throwing them up back onto the grid as the progressive features run out. More wins could be found here if it throws the symbols up in the right order!

Tarasque - Morphing Symbols

Morphing Symbols

If a winning cluster matches the designated (blue outline) morphing symbol, the winning group turns into another win that matches an adjoining symbol and increases the payout.

Tarasque - Progressive Features

Progressive Features

Winning clusters increase the progress bar and each new level releases a modifier. Wilds can be added, low-payers removed, Morphing Symbols applied or the Tarasque can keep growing.

Tarasque - The Tarasque - Devour & Unleash Feast

The Tarasque - Devour & Unleash Feast

The Wild Tarasque symbol arrives when the first Progressive Feature is activated. He’ll eat any winning symbols that are part of his cluster and start spitting them all back out again to try and form a win.

Tarasque Review

Print Studios has done us proud in recent months with other top titles such as Pine of Plinko II and Darkness, so it's fair to say that you're almost guaranteed a cracking game from these guys. Still, there's always a chance that you'll get your hopes up and a game doesn't deliver the goods - not so this time!

Design

Medieval France appears to be our destination given that the legend of the Tarasque hails from those parts. The background is like a beautifully crafted oil painting and the reels are set on the front of a castle - you also get a sneak preview of what's inside each time the symbols are removed. I love the little Tarasque character, who appears to be more carnival than carnivore as it makes its way onto the screen to unleash some very favourable conditions.

Gameplay

I was wondering how and when I could get into the bonus area while playing Tarasque when it dawned on me that the whole thing is pretty much a bonus game! This is fantastic news for the UK market even though they won't be able to take advantage of the Feature Bet to increase the number of Morphing Symbols that arrive. You get to witness everything that this creation has to offer at any time and in my experience, you'll see it all happen fairly frequently. One of the best base games I've come across for a while.

Win Potential

To continue my praise, it’s time to move on to the stats, which are only going to help the situation. The volatility isn't ridiculous with a 4/5 setting and this means that you should see some decent wins while also trying your best to maintain your balance - budget carefully all the same. The RTP is a fairly standard 96.30% and need we say more about the 20,000x maximum win?

My Verdict

It's a great effort from Print Studios as it goes against the grain and offers a lot of fun and excitement that everyone can enjoy without having to pay a fortune to see the bonus features. The Morphing Clusters will occur fairly regularly if you are lucky, and making your way up the progress bar isn't an arduous task as it so often is. Do yourself a favour and get a little Tarasque in your life!
