Hugo is a 5 reel, 10 payline video slots game from software provider, Play ‘n Go. The game is based on the popular character from Danish television, the mining troll named Hugo. The game includes a wild multiplier symbol, the Treasure Bonus feature that takes you through a mine to collect treasure and a free spins bonus game with three options. Players can win up to 10,000 times their stake.

A trip down memory lane

Players will be introduced to Hugo and encouraged to not only find the hidden treasures, but to rescue his wife, Hugoline from evil. The game is set near the entrance to a mine with leafy trees surrounding the reels and the track to the entrance of the mine visible behind the transparent reels. The reels are surrounded by wood and the symbols include gold nuggets, a bag of gold, a pickaxe, sticks of explosives and high playing card values. Scylla the witch is the scatter symbol and is the key to the free spins feature. The treasure chest is a bonus symbol and triggers the bonus game. Hugo is the wild symbol and substitutes for all other symbols, except the scatter and bonus symbols, to help create a winning combination.

Three Scylla the witch scatter symbols landing anywhere on the reels activates the free spins bonus round. You will be able to choose one of three free spins games:
– 5 free spins with each scatter paying 3x your total bet
– 10 free spins with each scatter paying 2x your total bet
– 15 free spins with each scatter paying 1x your total bet

During the free spins, an extra Hugoline scatter symbol will be available which can appear stacked on the reels. In addition, any Hugo wild that helps to create a winning combination, will double your win.

Three or more treasure chest bonus symbols landing anywhere on reels 1, 3 and 5 activates the Treasure Chest bonus game. You will be taken to a separate screen where you will need to pick doors to work your way through the mine to the main treasure. Each door offers a prize with a big lump of treasure awarding 150x your stake. Finding Don Croco, the crocodile henchman, behind a door will end the round.

The wide betting range of 0.10 to 100.00 per spin makes the game suitable for players with all sizes of bankrolls. Search for your own big treasure when you play Hugo Slot.
