Overview
Sherlock Holmes themed detective slot with a jackpot collection meter and sticky wilds.
How It Plays

Key Features
- Jackpot: a distinctive gameplay feature of this slot. See the in-game info panel for full rules.
- Free Spins: a bonus round of spins where enhanced features (extra wilds, multipliers, etc.) are usually active.
- Sticky Wilds: wild symbols lock in place for the duration of the feature, accumulating across spins.
Return and Volatility
The flagship RTP of 96.8% is in line with the industry standard of around 96%. That means over millions of spins, the game theoretically returns 96.8 units for every 100 wagered. Individual sessions can deviate wildly from this average — this figure is a long-run statistic, not a guarantee for any given play session.
Holmes and the Stolen Stones is classified as a medium volatility profile — the balanced middle ground. Expect regular small wins, occasional meaningful payouts, and a bonus round that can produce both modest and strong returns.
Max Win Potential
The maximum payout on a single session is capped at Jackpot. Specific details on the max-win calculation can be found in the in-game paytable.
Demo and Real Money
Like most Yggdrasil titles, Holmes and the Stolen Stones is typically available in both demo and real-money modes at licensed casinos. The underlying math is identical in both — the RNG, symbol weights, RTP and volatility are shared. The only differences are the use of fictional credits in demo, and that progressive jackpot networks (if the game connects to any) can only be won with real wagers.
