I’ll play the games you suggest and reply to your comments, letting you know how I got on!

• Muertos Multiplier Megaways (Pragmatic Play)

Celebrate the Day of the Dead on Pragmatic Play’s creepy new slot, Muertos Multiplier Megaways. This 6-reel video slot utilises the popular Megaways reel mechanic to deliver up to 117,649 ways to win and the chance of a 10,000x top prize. At the top of the reels is a horizontal reel that adds another 4 symbols per spin – something we see in a lot of Megaways slots. You form winning combinations when you land 3 or more matching symbols on consecutive reels. To aid your chances of profits is a cascading symbol (tumble) feature that ensures new symbols drop into place when winning symbols disappear.

During the base game and the free spins round, wild symbols can land to help create those combinations. When they do, the wild can have a 2x or 3x multiplier that applies to any wins gained from that spin.

Of course, the main feature is the one you will want to trigger, and that is done by landing 3 or more scatter symbols anywhere in view. That earns you between 5 and 14 free spins. How many you receive depends on the spin of a wheel before the round starts. You can even decide to gamble for more spins too. However, lose and you lose all that you have won so far.

During free spins, each new tumble increases a global multiplier by 1x. Plus, any wilds that land will increase that global multiplier by 2x or 3x. That means by the end of the round you could have accrued a massive win multiplier. Also, if you’re not one for hanging around, you can just purchase that bonus feature for 100x your stake via the Bonus Buy option.

Combination Spin Bet Multipliers: There are 10 regular symbols on the reels and a wild symbol. Most symbols require 3 or more matching symbols to form a winning combination. The exception is the skull which requires just 2. This is the 6-symbol combination multipliers for each symbol. Skull (5x), Drink (3x), Cactus (2x), Taco (1x), Tortilla Chips (0.75x), Banjo (0.75x), Diamonds/Spades (0.60x), and Clubs/Hearts (0.50x).

• 𝐑𝐚𝐠𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐖𝐢𝐭𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐬™️ (Betsoft)

As ever at this time of the year, it is all about Halloween-themed slots and yet another to launch last week was Betsoft’s 𝐑𝐚𝐠𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐖𝐢𝐭𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐬™️. On the 5×3 reel format that provides 30 paylines, you will find skeletons, witches, bats, candy, and other Halloween-related symbols. However, while the theme is perfect for this time of year, it is the bonus features that really sell this new title.

Aside from a wild symbol that will substitute for all regular symbols is a free spins round that has an increasing multiplier. You need to land 5 or more scatter symbols to receive 10 free spins. However, the more you land, the better. 5 will give you 10 spins with a starting multiplier of 1x, which increases by 1x for each spin. If you land 6, that starting multiplier is 2x, and each spin increases the multiplier by that amount. 7 scatters and it is the same, except the multiplier, starts at 3x and increases by 3x on each spin. Essentially, that means you could have a multiplier of 10x, 20x, or 30x by the time you reach your final spin.

Another fantastic feature of Rags to Witches is a progressive jackpot. Triggered randomly, you can win one of the Mini, Minor, Major, or Mega jackpots. The one you win depends on the spin of a wheel.

All in all, Rags to Witches is another excellent slot from Betsoft. It features the firm’s trademark top-notch graphics and animations that look great on all desktop and mobile devices. In the background are scary pumpkins, hands that come out of the ground, and gravestones. As for the audio, as it is creepy and eerie, it perfectly matches the theme. Don’t forget that you can check out this new slot for free. On the Betsoft website, there are demo versions of all its games.

Combination Spin Bet Multipliers:There are 11 regular symbols on the reels of Rags to Witches. They pay when you land 3 or more matching symbols on an active payline from left to right. 5-symbol combinations pay as follows: Witches (16.66x), Skull (8.33x), Bat (6x), Cat (5x), Candy (3.33x), Candle (2.66x), Ace (2x), King (1.5x), Queen (1x), Jack (0.66x), and 10 (33.33x).

• Hot Slot^TM Magic Bombs (Wazdan)

Wazdan has thrown everything at its new Hot Slot ^TM Magic Bombs video slot title. Well almost everything. It comes with the Collect to Infinity^TM and Stick to Infinity^TM feature, and as per usual, you get to choose the variance you want to play out via the Volatility Levels^TM feature.

Also, just before I get into this slot’s explosive features, don’t forget to look out for the Wazdan Halloween Cash Drop promo coming to Wazdan online casinos. 0x wagering on all prizes dished at random to players spinning on the brand’s range of fantastic slot titles, including this brand new Hot Slot^TM Magic Bombs (Wazdan).

On the Hot Slot^TM Magic Bombs title, you’ll find a ‘Buy Feature’ to get yourself into the free spins bonus or you can wait for the scatter to roll in and trigger the bonus. Along the way, you also have a wild symbol helping you link up symbol combinations across the slots 10 pay lines. Land the Bell 5x or with a wild to make it 5x on a pay line and you will land a mega 50x spin bet payout.

However, for the big money on this slot, you need to hit the free spin bonus. The Stick to Infinity^TM feature and its mystery symbols can help you land one of the jackpots – Mini, Minor, Major or Grand. Also, look out for the Collect to Infinity^TM symbol. It appears at random in the base game and will remain sticky on the reels. The ‘Free Spins Collector’ will increase by 1 and by the time the reels draw out 3 scatters, you are in the free spins where you could end the round with up to 6,000x your spin bet.

Each time you land a payout, you can then head over to the gamble feature to double your win. Plus, on top of using the Volatility Levels^TM for your base gameplay, the ‘Buy Bonus’ comes with ‘Ultra’, ‘Extreme’, and ‘Triple Extreme’ Volatility Levels^TM!

Combination Spin Bet Multipliers: Symbol combinations pay when there are 3, 4 or 5 on a pay line running from left to right on adjacent reels. Here are the 5-symbol combination win values: Bell (50x), Crown (20x) Red 7 (2x), Melon (1.5x), Strawberry (1.2x), Lemon (1x), Grape (0.8x), Plum (0.6x).

• Halloween Bonanza (BGaming)

BGaming comes out with its first Halloween dedicated video slot, and what a release this spooky-themed slot is. Packed with features including ‘Refilling Reels’, ‘Scatter Multipliers’, ‘Free Spins’, ‘Additional Free Spins Trigger’, ‘Free Spins Bonus’, and ‘Multiplier Symbols’. Not only that, you can buy your way into the slot’s bonus free spins game or double your chances using the ‘Chance x2’.

What’s more, this slot comes on 6×5 reels using the ‘Pay Anywhere’ mechanic. That means there are no pay lines and the ‘adjacent reels’ feature used for most no-pay line slots is not needed. Simply land 8-9, 10-11 or 12+ symbols anywhere in view on the reels to get paid. It is one of the most popular and easiest reel mechanics to get to grips with.

Thanks to the refilling reels feature, you get to land multiple wins from a single spin. It is essentially a cascading reel (or tumbling reels you may know it as) feature removing winning symbols from the reels and adding new symbols in their place at no extra cost to you. Each time the refill creates new winning combinations, it continues to repeat itself.

While you collect ‘Pay Anywhere’ combination wins there is a scatter multiplier that not only pays out multipliers of your spin bet up to 100x, but this symbol is also the key to the free spins bonus. During the bonus, you can earn additional spins with more scatters, plus there are multiplier symbols added to the reels with 2x up to 100x added to your total bonus win. If this sounds like a Halloween slot for you, then check out the full review and demo mode here.

Combination Spin Bet Multipliers: All you need to do to win is land 8 to 9, 10 to 11 or 12+ symbols anywhere on the reels to trigger a payout. The 12+ symbol payout values are as follows Pumpkin Scatter (100x), Female (50x), Frankenstein (25x), Mummy (15x), Ghost (12x), Red Candy (10x), Green Candy (8x), Yellow Candy (5x), Blue Candy (4x), Purple Candy (2x).

• Mongol Treasures II (Endorphina)

Mongol Treasures II from Endorphina is one of the video slots we reviewed during the week. However, as it is so good, we have decided to give it a mini-review as well. As the title suggests, this is a sequel to Endorphina’s smash hit, Mongol Treasures. Both celebrate the Mongolian dynasty, which once ruled a large portion of the planet.

This is a 5-reel, 3-row, and 10-payline slot that offers wilds and scatters, a buy bonus feature, a gamble feature, and 3-fixed jackpots. However, it is the Archery Competition bonus feature that will appeal the most. When you land 3, 4, or 5 scatter symbols, you will receive the bonus with standard prizes, 2x prizes, or 3x prizes, respectively.

This is a respins-style feature that has shields and targets as the only symbols. The idea is to land those symbols in vacant positions. You receive 3 respins which reset every time a new symbol lands. When target symbols land, arrows get fired at them. Whenever an arrow hits the target, it is collected to the right of the reels. When a shield hits, it means you win one of the three fixed jackpots above the reels. The round ends when you have filled all positions or you run out of respins. In the end, the number of arrows collected determines how much you win from 2x to 4,000x your stake. Plus, the shields reveal which jackpots you won. Those are Bronze (25x), Silver (50x), or Gold (100x).

If you do not have the patience to find scatter symbols to trigger that excellent bonus, you can buy it via the Buy Bonus feature. It costs 87x your stake, which is fairly generous compared to similar features on other slots. Of course, it means you need to win at least 87x to break even.

Combination Spin Bet Multipliers:There are 9 regular symbols on the reels of Mongol Treasures II. They pay when you land 2 or 3 (depending on the symbols) matching symbols on an active payline from left to right. 5-symbol combinations pay as follows: Mongol Warrior (500x), White Stallion (200x), Black Stallion (275x), Brown Stallion (275x), Ace/King (15x), and Queen/Jack/Ten (10x).
