Deck of Scurra Slot Review

Deck of Scurra - Game Overview

Deck of Scurra from Print Studios drops you into a secret parlour with a single candle and a heavy green felt table. The layout is a 5x3 deal of 15 cards, using 243 ways to win rather than fixed lines. Wins land when three or more matching cards hit on adjacent reels from the left. After each hit, winning cards are removed and new cards slide in, giving classic cascade action.

I like how Deck of Scurra feels closer to a physical card game than a standard slot. Every card placement matters once the Alteration Cards start queuing up beside the grid. The tone is dark and slightly playful, matching the jester theme, while the gameplay sits on the sharper side. This is a high volatility slot where dead patches are common, yet single rounds can explode when the modifiers align.

Theme, Audio and Symbols in Deck of Scurra

Theme wise, Deck of Scurra is all about moody card play at the turn of the twentieth century, backed by a tense piano soundtrack. On the table you see coin pouches, a book marked with a moon, and that flickering candle. The reels themselves are just playing cards laid on the felt. It feels like sitting in on a private game where the jester deals from his own curious deck.

The paytable in Deck of Scurra keeps things clean. Low pays are Jewel, Clover, Spear and Heartroot cards, paying up to 1x for five of a kind. High pays are the four Queens of Minds, Nature, War and Desire, which reach 5x for a full way. There is no wild symbol, so value comes from the Alteration Cards and the Jester scatter, which stores up access to the bonus game.

How to Play Deck of Scurra

Playing Deck of Scurra is straightforward once you grasp the win ways engine. I set my stake between 0.10 and 50 per spin, though UK limits may cap the top end in practice. Hit spin, watch 15 cards land, then look for three or more matching suits or Queens from reel one onwards. Cascades can string several wins together, while Alteration Cards revealed underneath winning cards are collected for later.

Bonus Features in Deck of Scurra

Alteration Cards are the heartbeat of Deck of Scurra. They sit face down beneath regular cards and appear only when a win clears the card above. Any revealed Alteration Cards move to a collection area and wait until cascades stop. Then they apply their effects to the remaining cards. Coronation upgrades low pays to matching high pays, while Blue and Purple Lunar cards shift suits to set up stronger connections.

Crow cards are where Deck of Scurra can really open up. Regular Crows add a number from one to eight onto matching cards, acting as extra copies and inflating the ways to win along that path. Golden Crows double every visible number, which can change a flat board into something explosive. When several modifiers sit in the queue, I sit forward and watch each change like a proper sweat.

Evolving Deck Bonus free spins land when three or more Jester scatters are collected in one round. Three, four or five Jesters give five, seven or nine spins and start you with upgraded cards plus several Alteration Cards already baked into the deck. All alterations are persistent between spins. Outside the UK you can pay 81x, 162x or 678x stake, or a 150x mystery, or use a Scatter Boost side bet. Those feature bets raise the RTP slightly into the 96.27% to 96.46% band, at the cost of extra risk.

Volatility is high, rated nine out of ten, with a hit rate of 24.63% and an average bonus every 209 spins or so. The max win sits at 20,000x bet, with long odds, roughly one in 4.8 million spins.

My Verdict on Deck of Scurra

After a good stretch with Deck of Scurra, I see it as a thinking player’s slot that still carries proper punch. Early on the Alteration system feels busy, yet once you recognise the suits and card types, you start planning ahead during each cascade. The tension when a stack of modifiers waits beside the table is outstanding, because a dead board can still flip right at the last moment.

The Evolving Deck Bonus is where this slot shows its teeth. Some bonuses barely fire, especially if your starting upgrades miss, but others turn into wild rides where every extra Jester extends an already charged layout. The presentation ties everything together with style and atmosphere. For me, Deck of Scurra works best for patient players who enjoy intricate mechanics and are comfortable riding long, high variance swings chasing rare but hefty hits.
