The Cage takes players into an unforgiving world of mixed martial arts.

As onlookers cheer and rattle the ring of metal bars, players will begin the fight of their life. The other fighters’ faces are slick with sweat as players are pushed to their limits to emerge victorious.

This slot would suit fans of mixed martial arts, boxing, and wrestling.

Graphics, Sounds and Animations

The soundtrack has a retro feel with fast-paced digital notes that add tension. The ding of a bell and moody vocalizations add to the chaotic cage match atmosphere.

Behind the reels, players will see intimidating bars that confine them to an opponent. A shadowy crowd screams support among neon lights. The humidity of the crowded space is palpable and there are signs that this fight is less than official.

The reels are filled with an array of fighters with bare chests and raised fists. Each man is illustrated in a vivid style with dark outlines that bring to mind a classic comic book.

As different opponents face blows, the animators have not held back on the details of their bruises and spittle. There is a video game flavor to the nature of the combat, and fans of this type of game will feel right at home.

Overall, the soundtrack and animation of The Cage create a dramatic, gritty world of cage fighting.
