Slot Features
Wild symbols in the game will help you form more winning combinations by substituting in a win line, and it can substitute for all the symbols except for the Scatters.
Holy Water
Each spin offers a chance that 2 or more positions on the middle reels, 2 through 4, will get hit by Holy Water. Any high-paying symbol that gets sprinkled with the holy water will turn Wild and increment a win multiplier for that spin by 1. The win multiplier will start at one and will get reset on each spin in the base game.
Free Spins
There are 2 Scatters in the game, the regular Silver Castle and the Gold Megascatter Castle, and 3 or more of these, anywhere on the reels during the base game, will award 12 spins and trigger the feature. Anything beyond 3 triggering Scatters will award +3 Scatters on the initial 12. If at least one of the triggering Scatters is the Megascatter Castle, you will trigger the Enhanced Spins.
Win Multiplier in the Free Spins feature will start with 1 and increase by x1 each time one of the high-paying symbols turns into a Wild. If you trigger the Enhanced Spins, the win multiplier will start with 2 and increase by x2 when holy water hits the grid. Each time you manage to get a multiplier hit x20, you will get awarded with additional 6 spins.
Win Exchange
Each time your win hits x100 the stake or more, you will get to choose whether you want to exchange this stake for 12 spins or collect the win. When you win between x25 and x100 the bet, you will get the option to exchange your win for the gamble bonus option. In the Gamble Bonus, you will spin the wheel with interchangeable segments of win and lose which puts you in a 50:50 win-lose position. Hit a green segment and you will get awarded 12 spins, but if you hit a red one, you will lose the gambled win.
Summary
Castle of Terror may have a terrifying name, but the design is not that terrifying at all, and it looks like a B-production horror film from about 50 years ago. However, looking past the design and artwork, there is a true surprise hidden in this castle that we personally did not expect. The slot is definitely not a ground-breaking type of game but these perfectly blended features are capable of delivering a breathtaking maximum win of x61720 the bet. The promised terror might not be there, but the creepy edge with high volatility and massive potential is, and if you ask us, definitely worth a shot.
Castle of Terror Slot is a brand new game that was released by the renowned slot provider company, Big Time Gaming, a studio that is widely famous among the slot communities due to its unique online slot games and most importantly the megaways slots. In regards to the slot game, it offers a minimum bet of just 0.20 cents per spin while the max win potential can reach up to 60.000x the initial stake.
The theoretical RTP in Castle of Terror Slot is 96.72 %, which is considered to be very high and ideal. The game offers 6 reels and 4096 pay ways, across a 6x4 set. In case you do not want to hustle through the base game, trying to trigger the bonus feature, you can select the bonus buy feature and choose between 2 bonuses. The first one is the regular one, which requires 70x the initial stake while the second one is the enhanced one and requires 200x the initial stake. Personally, a 200x for a super bonus is not so bad, compared to other slot providers and slot games that require an extreme amount.
When it comes to the main bonus feature, you need to land at least 3 silver bonus scatter symbols anywhere on the reels, in order to activate 12 free games. During the bonus game, you will get the holy water feature one each spin and of course win multiplier which does not reset until the end of the bonus game. Reaching a 20x multiplier, you will get 6 additional free games.
To trigger the enhanced bonus feature, you need to land 2 silver bonus scatter symbols and 1 golden bonus scatter symbol. During the bonus game, the multiplier is added by 2 and not by 1. I played the slot a couple of times and I managed to trigger the regular bonus game. It paid around 63x and i have to say that finishing the bonus game takes longer than i thought, but this is the fun part, it is enjoyable.
To be honest i quite enjoyed the slot and i think i will be playing it in the near future, but it is quite hard for me to pick it over other Big Time Gaming slot games.
