Faust Slot

For those of you who aren’t aware of who Faust is, then the title of this slot may be quite confusing. He is actually the protagonist of a classic German legend. A scholar who is highly successful, but is yet not satisfied with his life. Therefore, he makes a pact with the Devil, exchanging his soul for an infinite amount of knowledge and worldly pleasures. This legend has led to many literary, artistic, cinematic and musical interpretations and works. And, of course, it has led to this Novomatic slot game interpretation as well. And while it is a great slot game visually and in terms of its gameplay, there’s one slight niggle to it. As is the case with the majority of this developer’s games, Faust has a terrible soundtrack. And not just any soundtrack, but the grating arcade soundtrack that Novomatic overly uses. However, if you can play a slot without sounds, the mute button is easily found in the top right corner.

Setup and Play for Faust

The overall design of the game presents players with a five reel and three row layout. So, with this being a standard video slot design, it should prove to be quite familiar. In addition to these reels and rows, players will find that there are 10 different pay lines in the game too. These can also go through customisation, if you have a preference for wagering on fewer lines. Simply utilise the relevant plus and minus buttons at the bottom of the reels. You can also find the addition of the ‘Bet/Line’ buttons there as well. These allow you to change your wager around. With these, you can select a value between the minimum of $0.01 and increase it up to $50 per line. This means that all players have the opportunity to place a maximum overall wager of $500 per spin.

As we made mention of previously, you’re able to see some intriguing graphics in play on these reels. This is true when it comes to the icons that are present. However, these do begin with the often seen playing card icons. Therefore, you’ll see the yellow A, the red K, the green Q, the blue J and the purple 10 are all present and correct. These provide the game with its lowest paying symbols. Next in line you will be able to see a weighing scale with a goblet, two apples and a rose on it. Then comes a second weighing scale, which holds a couple of books and three vials of liquid. Finally, there are two character images on the reels as standard icons too. These are of Faust himself, who offers up the highest standard pay out of $50,000. And the second one is of his female assistant, who can provide up to $20,000 as a reward.

Faust Bonus Games

This game actually contains a great base theme, so it should also be the holder of some intriguing special feature rounds and symbols, right? Well, let’s take a look. To begin with, Faust provides an icon of the Devil himself. He works first of all as a wild icon, standing in for all other standard symbols on the reels in order to form a winning combination. Furthermore, if five of this icon come into view, he can provide a maximum pay out of 20,000 coins. However, this is not his only perk. He is also the game’s scatter icon at the same time.

As a scatter, he can also provides random pay outs whenever three or more of the icon show up across the reels. Not only that, but you’ll receive a total of 10 freespins from him as well in this instance. This round also contains a special expanding symbol as well. This special expanding icon cannot be substituted by a scatter during freespins though. The symbol is chosen at random from the entire standard range at the start of the freespins round.

Finally, the game also contains a gamble round, which becomes active whenever you form a win in the base game. If you opt to play the gamble round, you will receive a new screen with a face down playing card. You simply need to guess what colour the card will be when you turn it over, red or black. If you make a correct guess, you will see your winnings receive a double multiplier. Any incorrect guess that you make will see them lost.

Similar Games

There aren’t really any other games which centre themselves around the theme of Faust. However, there are some with similar inbuilt features, such as Red Lady, which is also a Novomatic slot. This one contains the same 10 pay lines on a five reel, three row layout. Furthermore, you can win 10 freespins which trigger from three scatter icons. What’s more, both games contain expanding scatters in freespins. The same is true for another Novomatic game, known as Lord of the Ocean. Book of Ra from Novomatic is yet another exact match, if we’re not counting the theme. And if you’re looking for an exact match from an alternative developer, check out Page of Fortune Deluxe from Zeus Gaming.

Faust – Conclusion

We love this game, as it happens. The theme is not such a familiar one, which makes it quite novel and unique. Add the expanding scatters in the freespins round as well as the wild and scatter icon in one symbol and you’ve got yourself an appealing slot from Novomatic.
