Legends have all sorts of fantastical, unbelievable stories. Some are more obvious, like dragons razing villages, or swimming across the sea. Others certainly sound plausible enough, but are just a little too good to be true. The fair lady’s nude ride on horseback as protest of her husband’s sharp taxes on the peasantry likely never happened. Then again, when has truth ever gotten in the way of a good story? So if you’re not stingy about historical facts, then let’s try this slot out!
Gameplay
Simple and elegant graphics are a safe bet, unless you’re a visual powerhouse like NetEnt. It seems like Pragmatic Play wisely keeps to this advice. At least, they do in this game! The symbol designs are a mixture of playing card royals and characters mentioned in the legend. Meanwhile, the background image depicts a village during night time, with the moon watching over the well-lit streets. Our only gripe with the visuals are the falling petals. Everyone knows it’s a repeating animation, but there’s no need to make it so blatantly obvious!
You play Lady Godiva on a 5x3 board with 20 fixed paylines, which pay left to right only. In terms of special features, there’s officially only one: a free spins round. There are two ways in which this free spins bonus is better than your usual fare. First, all except one extra turns round give you a multiplier. And you can probably guess the second from the first: there’s more than one free spins round! You can pick between four different special features, all of which give you a different combination of extra turns and multipliers.
Pragmatic Play continues to have one of the best user interfaces on the market. It’s remarkably easy to use, especially when it comes to setting your total bet! If you so choose, you can keep hitting the plus and minus keys until the wager you want appears. If you prefer to have a little more control, you can directly tweak coins per payline and coin value. No matter which option you choose, the total stake can only be set between GBP 0.20 and GBP 100 on each spin, which is a good betting spread.
That’s not to say this release is without flaws. For example, its top prize cannot reach over 120x, even if you make use of the best multiplier. That’s to be expected with Lady Godiva’s low volatility, but we can’t say we weren’t a little bit disappointed. The developer has known to create slots with fantastic payouts, even if their volatility was on the lower side of things. The RTP doesn’t fare much better, only sitting at 94.05%. This is almost two whole percentage points below the current industry average RTP of 96%, putting this game in a significant disadvantage.
Bonus Rounds
Of course, there is an upside to low variance: frequent free spins! And since they appear often, you’ll be able to try out all four extra turn round relatively quickly, and find the one you like best. You win free spins by collect three or more Scatters. When the bonus is finally activated, you pick one of four special features to play:
• 30 free spins with a 1x multiplier
• 15 free spins with a 2x multiplier
• 10 free spins with a 3x multiplier
• 5 free spins with a 6x multiplier
This does give you a small bit of control over your volatility. But even then, you’re only choosing what mild flavor of low variance you want. Unfortunately, even the maximum multiplier cannot save this release from its greatest enemy: its own paytable.
Summary
Honestly, short of the obvious animation loop with the falling petals, we quite like the graphics. They’re stylish despite Lady Godiva getting on in the years! Our main concerns are related to gameplay, however. The lower than average RTP is something to keep in mind, as is the fact you only have one bonus. If you can get past these flaws, then you’ll find a fun slot waiting for you!
