This 5-reel slot from Microgaming alludes to popular Christian celebrations of Shrove Tuesday held in Brazil, the United States and some other countries. The festive events include carnivals, parades, masked balls and theatrical performances, which attracts millions of local people and tourists. The symbols used in the slot recreate the look and feel of that picturesque holiday, displaying a jazz band, a paddle steamer, cocktails and etc.

Сoins range in size from $0.01 to $0.50, with up to 10 coins accepted per line. Given the slot has 20 adjustable paylines, the minimum and maximum stakes are $0.20 and $100 per spin. The game surprisingly lacks a wild symbol; however, this is somewhat offset by a second-screen bonus game and a gorgeous free spin feature. The jackpot prize in Mardi Gras Fever is $10,000 and is awarded for hitting five Clown scatters or five slot’s logos.

Bonus features

The slot has two scatter symbols. One of them depicted by Clown triggers 5 free spins if 3+ land in any position. Besides, five scatters pay an instant x100 a total bet. The amount of free spins is not very impressive but the multiplier of x10 is able to give a powerful boost to your coin balance.

Another scatter symbol is represented by the Bourbon Street sign. Hitting five of them pays x50 ($5000 at max) and three scatters start the Mardi Gras bonus feature, which is a typical pick-to-win type round. You will see 12 balconies and have to pick any three of them. There is no difference whether you have landed three or, say, five scatters in the triggering round; you always get 3 picks for that bonus game. As soon as you make a selection, a lady appears at the balcony, throws her beads at you and awards a random number of coins.
