Microgaming has launched its new spooky new game 'Halloween'. The slots is based on the movie Halloween and jam-packed with some great features such as the Trick or Treat Bonus Wheel, the Boogeyman Bonus and the highly favoured Free Spins. Playable on desktop and mobile.
Halloween slot has 50 fixed paylines, with 5×3 reels with 5×4 Wandering Wilds, Scatter symbols, and multipliers to increase winnings up to 10x! Enjoy Wandering Wilds which are made up of a group of 3 reels that spin together. Wandering Reels contain Jumbo Blocks, which are large high symbols that span the 3 reels. The reels will stop in one of three positions which will determine the reels and lines played, which are the first 3 reels or the 3 middle reels or the last 3 reels. The Wandering Wilds positions during the base game are chosen randomly. However, during the Free Spins feature, the position of the Wandering Wilds will shift to each position in order, starting from the left position, the centre position, then the right position. When all 3 positions have been used, the Wandering Reels will move back to the centre position.
• Trick or Treat Wheel Bonus
The Trick or Treat Bonus Wheel is triggered when players land 3 or more Bonus symbols. During this feature, each cash prize will multiply by the bet staked up to 10x. Michael (the main character) will lead players into the Boogeyman Bonus. When players land the wheel on any of the characters except Michael, they will trigger 9 Free Spin. They will collect prizes until the Boogeyman Bonus or Free Spins are won.
• Boogeyman Bonus
During this feature, players will be given opportunities to pick from the random hidden leaves to reveal cash prizes which are combined with the multiplier, which will be increased by 1 after a cash prize is revealed. The Boogeyman feature will end when the player finds all 10 cash prizes, or when they find a Stopper that awards a half bet and ends the bonus. Immunities can be collected to block a single stopper from ending Boogeyman Bonus.
• Free Spins
When players land on a character (other than Michael) during the Trick or Treat Wheel Bonus they will be awarded with 9 Free Spins. All the bets played will be the same as the game that triggered the Free Spins feature.
Halloween is a 5 reel, 50 payline sinister slot powered by Microgaming, and the Boogeyman which benefits from free spins, cash prizes, stake multipliers, wandering reels and jumbo blocks is back. The game can be played with 50p a spin across desktop, mobile and tablet devices. The Halloween logo is the wild symbol. Symbols on the reels include matches, knitting needles, wool, telephones, clown masks, knives and guns. Based on the movie, 4 characters show up: Lynda, Annie, Loomis and Laurie. The latter is the most lucrative symbol giving you 30 times your stake for 5 across a payline.
Look out for the Bonus scatter as 3 or more will trigger the Trick or Treat Wheel feature, spin the wheel and probably win cash prizes. Carry on spinning and collecting prizes until you trigger the Boogeyman Bonus feature or Free Spins feature.
Overall, Halloween is a decent branded slot from Microgaming.
