A harmonica plays something that belongs in a theme park queue line. The grid tells a different story. Greedy Alice sits inside a carnival cart framed by twisted lollipop trees and purple fog, and the symbols staring back from the 5×6 panel are Cheshire cats with exposed fangs, one-eyed monsters in top hats, and a ghostly creature that might have been a rabbit once. Peter & Sons built a dark Wonderland slot around scatter pays and cascading multipliers, and the cheerful soundtrack makes the teeth sharper by contrast.
No paylines. No ways. Greedy Alice uses scatter pays across its 5×6 grid. Land 8 or more of the same symbol anywhere on the panel and the game pays. Position does not matter — only the count. This format turns the entire thirty-tile grid into a single playing field where every symbol contributes regardless of where it sits.
Every win triggers a cascade. Winning symbols are removed, new symbols fall from above, and the multiplier doubles. It starts at x1 and climbs to x2, x4, x8, x16, and beyond with no cap during free spins. In standard play, the multiplier resets after any non-winning spin or cascade end. During free spins it carries forward across every spin for the entire round, and the multiplier ladder displayed on the left side of the cart tracks its progress visually.
A random event that advances the multiplier one position without a cascade. Can trigger up to three times consecutively, pushing the multiplier forward before a single symbol has moved. During a cascade sequence, jumps stack on top of win-driven doublings.
Four or more pocket watch scatters award 7 free spins, with each additional scatter adding 2 (up to 11). The multiplier persists across every spin. The feature runs to completion without any retrigger option. The Hatter character presents the round, and the grid shifts to a nighttime backdrop with a notably more intense soundtrack.
Golden Bet costs 1.2x extra per spin (2.2x total stake) and boosts the chance of landing free spins. That 1.2x premium is steeper than the 0.5x Golden Bet on most other titles from this studio. Two buy options are available. One awards 7 guaranteed free spins at 100x bet, the other a random allocation of 7 to 11 spins at 200x bet.
Eight matching symbols on a thirty-tile grid. That is the threshold for a win, and it changes how the reels read compared to a payline or ways format. Every position on the 5×6 panel contributes to every potential match, and cascade chains clear large clusters at once when the count is high. Bets run from $0.20 to $50 per spin. High volatility with a 20,000x cap. Hit frequency sits around 26%, so roughly one in four spins produces a win before cascades extend the sequence. RTP defaults to 96.18%, with operator alternatives at 94.0%, 90.5%, and 86.0%.
Four monster characters and five card suit symbols. At a $1.00 bet, values scale across three tiers: 8–9 symbols, 10–11, and 12 or more. The pocket watch scatter triggers free spins but carries no cash value.
| Symbol | 12+ | 10–11 | 8–9 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Red Monster (Crown) | $10.00 | $2.50 | $1.00 |
| Green Hat (Hatter) | $6.00 | $1.50 | $0.75 |
| Purple Cat (Cheshire) | $4.00 | $1.00 | $0.50 |
| White Ghost | $2.50 | $0.75 | $0.35 |
| Silver Diamond | $1.50 | $0.50 | $0.20 |
| Green Club | $1.00 | $0.35 | $0.15 |
| Purple Spade | $0.75 | $0.30 | $0.15 |
| Red Heart | $0.50 | $0.20 | $0.10 |
| Yellow Cross | $0.40 | $0.15 | $0.10 |
The Red Monster with Crown leads the paytable at $10.00 for 12 or more on a $1.00 bet, a 10x return before the multiplier. The jump from 8–9 symbols ($1.00) to 12+ ($10.00) is a tenfold increase, which means landing higher counts on character symbols is where the scatter pays format delivers its biggest base values. The five suit symbols form the low tier, with Yellow Cross returning just $0.40 even at maximum count. Without the cascading multiplier, suit wins contribute little at any count level.
A 3.2 out of 5 reflects a concept that nails the visual identity but runs into the same high-variance pattern that defines most of the Peter & Sons catalogue. The 96.18% default RTP runs at high volatility. A 20,000x ceiling sits on top of this foundation. routed through a persistent free spins multiplier. The scatter pays format on a 5×6 grid gives it a different feel from the payline and ways titles in the studio's range. The dark Wonderland theme and carnival framing create something visually distinct, even if the maths underneath shares DNA with Barbarossa DoubleMax and Bad Santa.
The loading screen dropped the theme immediately — a reimagined Alice, red-eyed and hungry, descending into a Wonderland that looks like it was designed by someone who grew up on Tim Burton films. The carnival cart that frames the reels sits in a clearing surrounded by oversized lollipops, gnarled trees, and a purple-grey sky. The harmonica-led soundtrack is bright and bouncy, which creates a deliberate dissonance against the fanged characters occupying the grid. That contrast is the first thing you notice, and it works.
Standard play connected frequently. Small clusters of suit symbols cleared at 8 or 9 matches, triggering short cascade sequences that pushed the multiplier to x2 or x4 before resetting. The hits came often enough to maintain the balance, but the returns were minimal. Suit symbols at 8–9 count return $0.10 to $0.20 on a $1.00 bet. The real action sits behind the scatter trigger.
The 100x free spins buy opened with 4 pocket watches and 7 spins, presented by the Hatter character against a nighttime backdrop. The soundtrack shifted from bouncy to urgent. Cascades connected across the first few spins, pushing the multiplier up through x4 and x8. Then the chains stopped and the remaining spins produced nothing. The final total sat at 19x — a significant loss on the buy price but a window into how the format behaves when the cascade chain stalls mid-round. The 20,000x cap requires the multiplier to climb deep into double digits while character symbols fill the grid at 12+ counts, and 7 spins with an early stall was never going to reach that territory.
The scatter pays system showed its range during extended play at $0.20 minimum, allowing the cascade multiplier to climb across several sequences and demonstrating how the 5×6 grid format creates a markedly different reading experience from the studio’s 5×3 titles. The visual presentation is among the strongest in the Peter & Sons catalogue, and adequate free play time in the demo lets you see whether the numbers match the art.
