Queenie

Queenie is not without some charm, but it will definitely help if you appreciate Wild Streak's particular style to recognise it. For one, the darker, more grown-up presentation of Alice in Wonderland makes a change from the psychedelic cartoon approach studios often take. Half the time, we kind of forgot we were playing an Alice game; the steely-eyed unblinking gaze of the Queen was a tad unsettling. There are touches, though, such as the Rabbit, the Card Soldiers and so on, making Queenie a minor celebration of Lewis Carrol's work. One star of Queenie is the heart symbol. It lands quite often but teases a lot in the base game since there is no guarantee it will trigger the wheel feature. When it does though, the game steps up and most of the prizes it awards go on to do something special. Not hugely special; this is noWhite RabbitorPlunderland, after all. Despite being able to win up to 50 initial free spins from the wheel, not to mention score some pretty large multipliers and mid-range jackpots, Queenie payouts max out at4,200x the bet. Still, there is amusement value here for hardcore Alice fans or players into the sort of physical, older style of play the Wild Streak/Pragmatic Play collabs often turn out to be. Unfortunately, that doesn't really include us. Queenie simply failed to set our hearts a flutter which may or may not be ironic given the subject matter. If you really like the idea of repeat wheel prizes during free spins, fair enough; it's just there are better options out there in terms of both Wonderland theme and Jackpot style gaming.
