Dansband P? Turné

Dansband P? Turné: Slot Overview

Swedish software provider Play'n GO explores its musical side, not in a rock/metal release for a change, but in the feel-good, nostalgia-laden online slot Dansband P? Turné. If you don't reside in Scandinavia, there's a good chance you'll be unaware that 'Dansband P? Turné' is Swedish for a dance band on tour. These singing, dancing events are a big cultural phenomenon in Sweden, often associated with summertime, cruises, a.k.a. having fun and enjoying life. Wherever you live, however, it is common knowledge that Sweden has forged a strong connection with music, dominating the charts via acts like Abba and Avicii, as well as creating powerhouse streaming services such as Spotify and Soundcloud. The question now is, has Play'n GO deepened Sweden's musical legacy with the addition of a brand new powerhouse musical slot?

Let's pause things for a moment because if you're thinking Sweden… Abba… Eurovision… Extravagant concerts, it might be good to temper those thoughts. The reason why is that Dansband P? Turné is held in a low-key countryside setting, its gaming matrix accompanied by trees, rocks, grass, and that's about it - in the free spins bonus game. While meandering through the base game, all you can really see on the edges of the grid are glimpses of a retro tour bus, presumably weaving its way through Scandinavia. Wherever we are in this game, it appears to be a warm summer's day, and Dansband P? Turné's tunes provide a jolt of feel-good factor featuring classic Dansband's like Vikingarna and Thorleifs. Unfortunately they left out one of the most epic Dansband tunes of all time, Black Jack's 'Inatt.'

Dansband P? Turné's gaming takes place on a 5-reel, 3-row space, where 10 paylines are used for calculating wins - winning combinations pay left to right from the leftmost reel. Coming in with an 8 out of 10 for volatility rating (high), Dansband P? Turné is available in five RTP settings, depending on the market, where the highest value possible is 96.24%. Bet levels start at 10 c per spin, rising to $/€100, and there are no extra betting options or bonus buys attached.

Musically styled 10 to A card royals make up Dansband P? Turné's low pays, awarding 7 to 12 times the bet when landing a line of 5 matching symbols. Up from them are a band outfit, an accordion, and a saxophone, paying out 20 to 30 times the bet for a 5 OAK winning line. Note that symbols can land stacked, and this you want to happen as much as possible since stacked reels are linked to a rising win multiplier. Helping connect winning lines is the bandmate-adorned wild symbol, substituting for all of the regular paying symbols. What's encouraging is the wild always lands fully occupying the reel. Also, a line of 5 wilds has a value of 50 times the stake.

Dansband P? Turné: Slot Features

It might be a vibrant cultural experience, but Dansband P? Turné is a little light on features. What it has is a win multiplier, they're handy, and a free spins session.

Win Multiplier

The win multiplier is available in all phases of play. It increases by +1 for each reel with a full stack of symbols. A reel of stacked wilds adds +2. In the base game, the win multiplier resets on each spin.

Free Spins

Hitting the Sign and the Bus scatter symbols triggers free spins, where a random number of 5 to 15 free spins is awarded. The win multiplier carries over from the triggering spin, where it is unlimited, and carries over across each free spin. The bonus can also be retriggered by landing 2 scatter symbols, awarding 5 to 15 additional free spins. In theory, the free spins round can be retriggered unlimited times.

Dansband P? Turné: Slot Verdict

And who says online slots are a cultural wasteland, all cherries, flames, sevens, jokers, and bells? Well, probably not that many people anymore, at least not those acquainted with the wide variety of gambling entertainment available online these days, but you know, you get the point. Dansband P? Turné is one of those fun, locals get it, slots which arise from time to time, like Kulta Jaska Megaways or Flodder - both from Red Tiger, for the record. If experiencing different cultures - or celebrating your own culture is of personal interest, then Dansband P? Turné is a nice way of combining the urge with an additional dash of gambling on the side.

Laidback simplicity was surely one of the driving concepts when Play'n GO set about designing Dansband P? Turné. Its features are neither the biggest nor the most complicated set of extras you're likely to see when inspecting an online slot. In fact, the slot reviewed just before this one was Nolimit City's spooky, feature-heavy number Beheaded, and moving from that to Dansband P? Turné's rule set was like going to a restaurant with 3 choices on the menu. Limited food options don't necessarily translate to a bad meal, though, and you can see how Dansband P? Turné might tug at the nostalgia strings for the right gambler. Naturally, more so for those in its regional scope, but the soundtrack might promote a moment or two of 'oh yeah, is that?' for non-Swedes as well.

However, unless you're really familiar with the concept, it might be easy to miss Dansband P? Turné's point. The visuals aren't hugely engaging, and the features are pretty mid. The game's 10,000x the bet max win is less easy to dismiss, though, and if you dig the tunes that go with it, then Dansband P? Turné could be a sweet wee ride through the countryside.
