Slot Review: Days of the Tsar

The days of Tsarist Russia are gone with the wind, but the glamour and intrigue of this historical and geographic epoch remain with us. Days of the Tsar is a well-designed, slick online slot machine title from Microgaming. If you are enraptured by the mystery of the Princess Anastasia and tales of the court mystic Rasputin, you will be intrigued by this game dedicated to the beauty and allure of the Tsar’s court. “Tsar,” of course, is a derivative of the world “Caesar,” which of course means a ruler or king.

Days of the Tsar is playable with coins ranging from one cent to one quarter, with max coins of five hundred. There is a jackpot of ten thousand coins, or just twenty-five hundred dollars. The only good thing about such a small jackpot (which, admittedly, won’t make you rich) is that it pays out very often… as much as a few times a day!

The reels are depicted on a background of ornate crimson and gold. Symbols range from the Kremlin and a statue of a horseback rider to letters and numbers drawn to look appropriate to the era and theme. The scatter symbol is the Faberge egg, those beautiful and unique jeweled creations made by creative geniuses of the era. There are plenty of free spins up for grabs, which can greatly multiply your winnings! Go back to the “Days of the Tsar,” and explore the beauty of historical Russian culture… minus the revolution and freezing chill of the winter snow!
