Red Door Roulette
Red Door Roulette is Evolution splicing two of its own ideas together: the multiplier layer from Lightning Roulette, and the bonus-round showmanship from Crazy Time. You play roulette, collect Bonus Numbers with Keys, and those keys are what open the door into the bonus game.
Bonus numbers and keys
The base game is roulette. On top of it, the game awards up to 15 Bonus Numbers in a round, each of which can carry a Key. Those numbers can turn into multipliers, in the same way Lightning Roulette's struck numbers do.
The keys are the difference. Rather than only multiplying a straight-up win, collected keys are what qualify you for the bonus round behind the red door — so the base game is doing two jobs at once, paying multipliers and building toward the bonus.
Behind the red door
The bonus is built in the mould of Crazy Time's, which is to say it is a separate hosted round with its own set and its own multiplier ceiling rather than a variation on the wheel.
Evolution does not publish full round mechanics or return figures on its public site, so the game's own rules panel is the source worth trusting for exactly what the bonus pays and how many keys are needed. Open it before you bet — as with every show of this type, the bonus is where the variance lives.
Who it is for
Players who like Lightning Roulette but want something at the end of the round beyond a multiplied straight-up win. If you play roulette on outside bets — red or black, odd or even — most of this game's machinery does not apply to you, and a plain European table will cost you less.
As with the rest of the Lightning family, the multiplier and bonus layers are funded by adjusting the base payouts rather than added for free. Check the paytable at the table.
Where it sits
Lightning Roulette is the simpler version of the same idea, and Crazy Time is where the bonus-round format came from. For roulette with no extra layer at all, see online roulette or the live dealer tables.
Everything settles in rand at a licensed operator.
Frequently asked questions
How does Red Door Roulette work?
It is roulette with two layers on top. Up to 15 Bonus Numbers can be awarded in a round, each able to carry a Key and to turn into a multiplier. Collected keys qualify you for a hosted bonus round behind the red door.
How is it different from Lightning Roulette?
Lightning Roulette multiplies struck straight-up wins and stops there. Red Door Roulette adds keys that build toward a separate hosted bonus round, so the base game is both paying multipliers and qualifying you for something else.
Do outside bets benefit?
Largely no. The multiplier and key machinery attaches to numbers, so if you bet red or black, odd or even, most of it does not apply and a standard European table will cost you less for the same play.
Where can I check what the bonus pays?
The game's own rules panel in the client. Evolution does not publish full round mechanics or return figures publicly, and the bonus round is where nearly all the variance sits, so it is worth reading once.
