About Mr. Hallow-Win
Released on October 1, 2018 to coincide with the Halloween season, Mr. Hallow-Win is one of the very first titles published by PG Soft, at a time when the studio was still building its identity. The setting is a haunted theatre: ghosts, pumpkins, skulls, spiders and a graveyard in a dark, mystical atmosphere. The format stays classic — 5 reels, 4 rows, 30 paylines — with an official RTP of 95.86% and medium volatility. That RTP should be read in context: it trails the 96.7% PG Soft commonly posts on current releases, which is consistent with the title's age. Its split illuminates the game's structure nicely: 47.32% for the base game, 18.52% for the Mini Haunt feature and 30.02% for the free spins. In other words, the game offers two distinct bonus tiers, not one. The Mini Haunt is the intermediate function: it triggers on 4.21% of spins, which is relatively often, and serves to keep the rhythm going between two bigger events. The free spins are much rarer: 0.77% of spins. Overall hit frequency sits at 34.84%, of which 29.86% comes from the base game. On the symbol side, the mechanic runs on walking wilds — wilds that move from one reel to the next each spin instead of disappearing — and on sticky wilds that freeze on the grid. The win ceiling is 5,000x the stake, a modest figure next to the studio's modern titles but consistent with a medium-volatility profile. One last thing clearly sets this title apart: the bet range runs from 0.30 to 375. That maximum bet ranks among the highest in the PG Soft catalogue, where the cap often sits around 100. No bonus buy is listed.
