Crescendo Description
Crescendo from ELK Studios is a game that does things differently. It blends poker with slots to deliver one of the most innovative games around. Anyone who has played other games from this developer, such as Deadeye, will know just what to expect.
The unusual grid design sees five reels but just one single row. The aim is to form winning poker hands on this row to trigger payouts. These hands start at a Pair and go up to Five of a Kind.
A funky disco-style soundtrack is present, while the neon-infused graphics really stand out.
This slot adds even more to the mix with its bonus features. From Respins to Feature Inventory and Free Spins, these features bring more depth to the basic play.

Crescendo Bonus Features
The Crescendo slot has a few bonus rounds. Let’s take a look at them in more detail.
Respins
Each time a winning hand is formed, any reels that do not contain winning cards spin again.
Respins are also awarded when no winning hand is formed but the combo shown is one card short of a Flush or Straight.
Any winning hand that includes cards on all five reels triggers a respin and the win multiplier is doubled when the round finishes.
Feature Inventory
There are two boxes above the reels. The left one represents the base win value and the right the current win multiplier.
The base win value shows winning hand payouts, while the multiplier value increases when you land special features.
When each spin starts, one of five features appears in the Feature Inventory (Add to Base Win, Multiply Base Win, Add to Multiplier, Multiply Multiplier and Add to Wild).
Free Spins
Land three bonus symbols to trigger the Free Spins round.
This awards five free spins and sees all features/multipliers collected on the initial spin carry over. These and any new features awarded remain sticky until the round finishes.
