Now, you have to have the Enchanted Garden on reel 1 and the Princess on reel 5. This greatly alters your chance of hitting the feature. I sure didn't notice it popping up very often on reel one, and I have no idea if any of the other pays have altered, or the reel strips.

I think it is grossly unfair to change paytables on established games without any notice to players. While I do read the paytable on new games, I don't check them every time I go to play a slot.

Now, there may be other changes so the payout percentage stays similar, but I don't really have a clue.

Not impressed


I am sure it has always been garden on reel 1 and princess/fairy on reel 5 to trigger the feature.
I quite liked this one when it came out, and played it a fair bit.

I have not played RTG for quite a while because I fell victim to a string of rather odd bugs, and further I KNOW something "under the bonnet" has been changed because of the fact that things that used to work fine suddenly developed bugs.
The bugs were to do with the WR counter, suddenly it began to FAIL to zero out when the balance was zeroed, and the session logged off. Then, a load of games simply disappeared without any official explanation, and this happened TWICE, the second time being the removal of 5 new slots soon after release.
During the time I didn't play, it seems slots that once worked, were "upgraded", and now have bugs in them.

Since we KNOW that RTG casinos can set different payouts on their games, within a range, it is reasonable to suspect that experiences of poor RTP might be down to that particular casino using a lower RTP setting than others experienced in the past.

If the feature seems to hit less often, it could be down to a lower RTP version of the game, perhaps with longer reels on 1 and 5. I think I have even seen a post where someone found out that there was a lengthening of reel 5 on Enchanted garden at one RTG casino compared to another - this would make the feature less likely to hit.
