Graphics, Sounds and Animations

The soundtrack of Blade and Fangs consists of rattling chains, mournful cries, and spooky laughter. A low drumbeat ensures that tension remains high while wins are emphasized with plenty of chimes and cheerful digital notes.

The reels are filled with eerie characters including a young zombie with blood dripping down her chin and a werewolf with bared fangs. A skull with glowing eyes and a terrifying bat in flight appear. Each creature is illustrated in deep shades of blue, green, red, and gold.

One of the most striking symbols is a lush rose with a knife in its center. Players will be left wondering if this strange act of destruction is part of an ancient spell.

Behind the reels, players will see a heap of skulls illuminated by candles. Further in the background, majestic stone pillars suggest that the setting of this slot is a particularly grand house or perhaps a church.

The reels are framed in metal and chains, adding to the unsettling atmosphere. Players will be left with no doubt that this is a frightening place to spend the night.

Overall, the soundtrack and animation of this slot create an entertaining world of horror.

Gameplay

Blade and Fangs has a base game structure of two 5x3 reels. During special features, these reels combine to form a single 5x6 reel structure.

Wins are awarded for landing matching symbols in adjacent reels, starting with the leftmost reel. During the base game, there are 243 ways to win per reel. Wins may form separately on each of the reel sets.

If players wish, they can buy directly into the Bonus for 100x of their total bet.

The maximum win for this slot is 5,000x of the player’s total bet.

Wilds, Bonuses and Free Spins

The Scatter symbol appears on reels 2, 3, and 4 and pays as follows in the base game:

• 3x Scatters = 2x total bet
• 4x Scatters = 15x total bet
• 5x Scatters = 100x total bet
• 6x Scatters = 500x total bet

The 1x Multiplier symbol can appear on reel 1 of the upper reel set. Meanwhile, the 2x Multiplier symbol can appear on reel 5 of the bottom reel set.

In the event that both Multiplier symbols land at the same time, the separate reel sets will merge into a single 5x6 reel grid. Then, a respin is awarded and a 2x multiplier is applied to any wins. If a 1x Multiplier lands during the respin, the general multiplier will increase by 1x. Alternatively, if a 2x Multiplier lands during the respin, the general multiplier will be multiplied by 2x. Once the respin is complete, the reels will divide into separate sets again.

The Free Spins feature is triggered when players land at least 3 Scatter symbols on any of the two reel sets. The feature begins with 8 free spins and the round is played on a single merged 5x6 reel structure.

A general multiplier is active for the duration of the round, starting at 1x. Every 1x Multiplier symbol adds 1x to the general multiplier. Every 2x Multiplier multiplies the general multiplier by 2.

If players land 3 additional Scatter symbols during the Free Spins feature, 4 more free spins are awarded.
