Blood Suckers Megaways Slot – Free Demo

324 to 117,649 ways on six blood-red reels

Blood Suckers Megaways is another game from Red Tiger Gaming. I played it for 340 spins at a 5.00 stake, starting from a balance of 1,000.00. It is a 6-reel, 117,649 ways video slot, and it is available from a 0.10 stake. Each reel shows between 2 and 7 symbols, changing at random on every spin, so the number of ways moves between 324 and 117,649.

Vlad on top, Garlic at the bottom

The paytable is painful to look at, not only optically, and the symbols comprise Garlic, Crossbow and Vlad. The latter is worth 3 times the stake for 6 of a kind on adjacent reels. Garlic and Crossbow sit at the bottom, paying 0.4 times the stake for 6 of a kind.

The wild substitutes for all paying symbols. Winning symbols are removed in Chain Reactions, and new symbols drop in until no new wins form. There is a Super Wild as well, which only shows on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5. It covers the full reel and carries a multiplier equal to the number of symbol positions on that reel, up to x7.

The Minty Take: A stated 97.66% met a session that returned 70.9% over 340 spins, and the single Free Spins round supplied 220.00 of the 1,205.50 I got back.

What the Vampire Bride’s coffins hold

The free games feature is triggered when hitting 3 or more Vampire Bride Scatters. It then grants 5 free spins, and the manner the free spins mode is run is a little different from what you may have seen before. My one trigger came on spin 24 with exactly 3 Scatters. You receive one coffin pick per Scatter, up to 5 picks. My 3 picks included one that added 3 extra spins, for 8 free spins in all. The coffins contain the following:

On every spin, Random Wilds brings 2–5 Wilds. Two of the 10 coffins hold Random Wilds, and picking both gives 4 to 10 Wilds per spin.
On every spin, Super Wilds brings one Super Wild reel. There are 2 Super Wilds coffins, each adding its own Super Wild reel.
Adding together up to x10, Win Multiplier brings x2, x3 or x5. Picked modifiers stay active for the whole feature.

The Bonus Spins coffins, moreover, grant +1, +2 or +3 additional free spins. Modifiers that were not picked can still trigger at random during the free spins.

Spin 199 and a 505.50 close

Although the max win is capped at 20,521.9 times the stake, it's difficult to state for certain what sort of promise rests within this slot. My biggest win was 545.00 on spin 199, or 109 times the stake, and a base-game spin on spin 67 paid 40.50, which is 8.1 times the stake.

Suppose you would trigger the bonus with the 5 Scatters it requires to obtain all 5 coffin picks. Free Spins with 5 coffin picks can also be bought directly for 1,000 times the bet, against 150 times for 3 picks. Having to rely on such an improbable occurrence to transpire to have a chance at a substantial win is a little disheartening, however. Over the session the balance went from 1,000.00 to 505.50, with a lowest point of 472.00.

With that stated, the free spins were fairly scarce. They landed merely once in 340 spins, with that one yielding a return of 44 times the stake. That round paid 220.00, which was 18% of the 1,205.50 I won from 1,700.00 wagered, for a session return of 70.9%. I could have simply been unlucky at the moment of course.
