How to play Pretty Kitty Video Slot

When the game screen loads you will find that this to some a bit of a gaudy looking game with its images of cats along with jewel symbols all sitting on white reels with a predominately purple backdrop. It is quite striking though in its own way and as mentioned earlier, cat lovers will enjoy this slot. There are no standard card symbols with this game but you have 5 gemstones instead of various colours.

You then have 5 cats each with their own ‘bling’ but not all look that happy. If you have seen those images of ‘grumpy cat’ then a couple of these cats we think are from the same family. You also have a glittering cat collar as the scatter symbol and a sparkly ‘Pretty Kitty’ logo symbol as the wild substitution. The latter can replace all other symbols apart from the scatter symbol and the scatter symbol can trigger the free spins feature as long as you land at least 3 symbols.

Before starting you play on the Pretty Kitty online slot make sure you set your cost per spin and that this is at a level you are comfortable with. Using the ‘Bet’ button at the bottom of the game screen you can set the coin size at 1p, 2p, 5p, 10p, 20p, 25p and 50p along with a multiplier of how many coins to bet. This can be set from 1 up to 5. Therefore, adjusting these options allows you to set the cost per spin to as little as 30p up to a maximum of £75.00.

To start playing Pretty Kitty you just need to select the oblong looking purple button on the bottom far right of the game screen marked ‘Spin’. There is also an ‘Auto Play’ button along the bottom section of the game screen. Clicking the AutoPlay feature allows you to have the game spin the reels automatically. You can set the number of spins from 5 up to 100 or use the pre-set buttons for 10, 25, 50 or 100 spins. There is no bet max button on this video slot.

As you play the game you will be trying to achieve the free spins bonus feature by landing a minimum of 3 scatter symbols. Two scatter symbols award a cash prize but do not trigger the bonus feature. 4 or 5 scatter symbols simply increase your win for that spin but you are still awarded the same amount of free spins. Once you activate the free spins bonus feature you receive 15 free spins. However, you can land the scatter symbols during this bonus round and re-trigger the free spins.

During the base game, you will have certain cat symbols ‘stacked’ on reel 1 so that they could possibly fill the reel. If they land and are part of a winning combination, then all other similar symbols in the remaining reels will expand to fill their reel. During the free spins feature, this is the same but you also have the Wild Symbol stacked which can also be expanded on other reels in the same way.

Is Pretty Kitty the right video slot for you?

The Pretty Kitty Slot by Microgaming has a theoretical RTP (return to player) of between 96% and 97% giving a house edge of up to 4.0%. When we tested the game over 100 spins at £1.50 per spin we did feel that in our opinion this is a medium variance slot. Although wins appeared to be frequent with the maximum dry spell being 8 spins without a win, the cash value of these wins was of a smaller amount.

We did manage to land the free spins bonus twice with a £58 win and a £12.90 win, however, we were still down on our initial starting balance by the end of our 100 spins. This is generally the case with many of the Microgaming slots, however, Dragon Dance to a degree breaks the mould as you can spin individual reels to try and pull in a win. Overall the Pretty Kitty video slot is a fairly standard Microgaming game that is not too exciting. If you were using a free casino bonus and looking to meet the wagering requirements then this slot may not be the one to use that full amount of free cash on but is worth a few spins to see if you can hit the bonus feature.
