Day of Dead slot is Pragmatic Play new release inspired with the Day of Dead holiday which is, of course, easily deduced from the title. The game runs on 5 reels and 20 paylines and is ready to send some shivers down your spine with this spooky experience. If you like the thrill of fear tingles, you can test this slot at any Pragmatic Play Casino for real, or here for fun.
How to Play Day of Dead Slot
Get into the festive Halloween spirit but before you get the reels in motion, make sure to set your bets.
- Hit +/- buttons will draw up a panel where you can increase or decrease coins per line and coin value that will constitute the bet, or you can simply increase the total bet value.
- Spin button will get the reels moving.
- Autoplay opens up a panel where you can choose Turbo Spin, Quick Spin and the number of automated spins.
- Buy Free Spins will get you into the feature without waiting for regular triggers.
Slot Features
Wild symbol in the game can sub in for all the paying symbols to help you form win combos, and it can appear on all reels. There is also an Expanding Grave Stone Wild that can expand to cover the entire reel and then trigger the Walking Wild Respin feature.
Walking Wild
Each time when an Expanding Wild hits it will spread and cover the entire reel on which it land. Once it pays out wins it will initiate a Respin where the Wild will move one reel to the left until it falls of the screen. There is also a possibility that multiple Wilds can hit and expand during respins.
Free Respins
Scatter symbols can appear on reels 1, 3 and 5, and once you hit three of them you will trigger the Free Repins feature. During the Respin the reels will continue spinning for as long as there are Walking Expanding Wilds on the screen. If the Grave Stone symbols lands, it will take the role of a collectable Wild only during the Free Respins feature. Collectable Wild symbols are gathered at the top of the game and they can go to the reels as Expanded Wilds.
The round will start with 2 collectable Wilds already awarded, and when respins start one more collectable Wild will be sent to screen, turn into Expanding Wild and then start Walking towards left side. The round will end when there are no more Expanded Wilds on the screen and collectable Wilds that can go to the screen.
Summary
Day of Dead looks really festive and is completely being fair to the symbolism of the Dia de Muertos. In terms of numbers, the game is highly volatile with 96.49% RTP and a max win cap that is set to x4500 the bet. In terms of features, looks like all cards are put into the Free Respins feature that can get pretty interesting and rewarding, however, we found this game lacking that special something, but that does not mean that it is not worth giving a chance.
