Slot Review: Spinning For Gold

The story of Rumpelstiltskin is one that is very popular in our culture, and has subsequently popped up in many different forms. Basically, the tale is that of a miller’s daughter. She is very beautiful, but the miller is very poor. He boasts to the king that his daughter can spin straw into gold. The king locks the girl up in his tower, and orders her to make good on the bargain. If she can do so for three days, he’ll marry her. If not, she’ll lose her head. Luckily, an industrious imp comes along and helps the poor girl out. He’s happy to do her a favor, with one condition – she must forfeit her firstborn child when she marries the king. The story proceeds happily, until the girl has her baby and the imp demands his payment. The tearful new mother begs for some reprieve, and the imp says that he will leave her alone with the baby if she can guess his name. The queen sneaks out to spy on the imp, and hears him speak his name – Rumpelstiltskin. The imp is furious, but has to leave the queen in peace. This online slot game is dedicated to that legend.
