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.

A slot from Pragmatic Play based on a Mexican holiday theme Dia de los Muertos, It does come with a very low 0.20 bet per spin and that makes it quite nice when you just want to have some low rolling sessions.

When it comes to this slot you will need to get the scatter symbol on reel 1 and 3 and 5. Yes all 3 scatters in one spin starts the feature. There is nothing to pick before the feature starts it just starts and the tomb stones can get collected during the feature to give you better chance of better wins. Now when it comes to features having 1 scatter on reel 1 and 1 on reel 5, or needing 3 scatters on reels 1, 3 and 5 or 3 or more scatters I am fine with all these types of methods and it find when playing slots with different methods. During the feature a reel can be turned wild when a tomb stone symbol gets beamed onto it and if you get several of these fully wild reels together then can pay off well and each time a wild reel reaches the left side it raises the multiplier.

The sound and music is suitable for this Dia de los Muertos theme and I have not had issues when it comes to the music and sound effects with Pragmatic Play slots even though I sometimes end up turning off the background music to concentrate on the reels with just the sound effects on. Depends on the mood.

Now when it comes to real play with this slot I have given this slot two sessions and they were like night and day, the first session was rough where no feature at all while in the next session it was great 3 free spins in under 200 spins. When it comes to the features I had my first over 50x feature on my 3rd real mode feature and while I would have liked to win more than what I did it was still nice to get it. When it comes to the base game there is some potential there too and best was just under 30x.

As for the RTP that is with this slot, I played the 94.47% RTP versions in both of my real mode sessoin on it and while the slot is available at other sites in it’s 96.49% version. But sometimes the casino offers the lower RTP version it is what it is if the slot plays well then play it anyway which is what i did in my case.

Found it hard to get my first feature on it but eventually it did show up during the next session 3 times. But still it was tough during the first session. The walking wild reel is rare to get and appears for me usually just once during a session. It is not as frequent at all like you would find for example in JATB slot. In that slot however it was not a whole wild reel.

Here’s one more Pragmatic Play game that looks good to play but isn’t so after playing it! Well, okay, not to everybody perhaps but that’s how it has been for me anyhow. What makes the game looks good, you may ask? That’s mainly because of the nice and interesting visuals in the game, with very colourful icons and symbols in play, and quite striking to the eye. But of course, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, as the saying goes, but beauty doesn’t always mean it’s good either.

Day of the Dead is an annual event in certain countries to commemorate their beloved dead ones. Participants would put on elaborate make-up and colorful clothing, looking like dead souls and ghouls, and parade the designated route with music and dancing. Sounds interesting, right? Yeah, well, you can get a small taste of all those festivities by playing this Day Of Dead game, but be warned though, you may end your day or night feeling rather unhappy instead, hahaha.

Here is one game that plays with 20 lines but doesn’t offer any free spins feature game. What it offers is a ‘Walking Expanded Wild Reel Respins’ feature, which can be randomly triggered in the base game, or by getting 3 Scatter symbols on the reels. There’s no multiplier whatsoever in the base game, but there are increasing multipliers during the Respins feature game. Every new Wild Reel Respin adds +1 to the multiplier, but I really don’t know how high that multiplier can go up to. The highest that I can recall was 11x, or maybe even 15x, but the maximum possible single win is stated in the paytable as 4500x.

So, what does the Respin feature game do? You start off with 2 Wilds collected in the top collection row and 1 full Wild Reel randomly placed on any 1 reel. This Wild Reel then moves one step at a time towards the left, collecting any wins created by it, and finally goes off the reel. Then a new Wild Reel comes down from the collection row, adding +1 to the multiplier counter, and repeats the same walking steps. Each time a RIP symbol lands, it adds to the collection row at the top. This Respin feature game continues on for as long as there’s a Walking Wild Reel on the reels, so you may get more than 10 respins in any one session.

Despite the seemingly good and interesting Walking Wild Reel feature, getting any big win of over 200x can be very hard to come by indeed. My best win, believe it or not, after several plays on this game, remains at a measly 122x. Not enticing at all I must say, and other games can pay much higher that Day Of Dead can.

Day of Dead is a 5 reel slot from Pragmatic Play that was launched quite some time ago. I had played this game before, however this year I was playing it more, as one of the casinos I was playing at had Halloween promotion free spins on this game. Of course, this is one of the games that gets more promoted during the Halloween period as the game is inspired by the De la muerte theme or as the name says- the Day of the Dead. I personally really like this theme, it can be a bit spooky but in a good way. And I can certainly say that Day of Dead has really nice game design and it's a game I can play for hours and not get tired of the looks of it.

When it comes to the game features, this game keeps it simple yet entertaining. The slot has 5 reels and 20 paylines and the minimum bet is 20 cents per spin. In the base game there are two types of wild symbols- a regular wild and a wild that expands. The expanding wild will also give you a respin as he will move across the screen. While it's a really simple feature, I really like a good wild symbol and I've had a few decent base game hits due to winning combinations with wilds. Also I find that the base game keeps the balance quite steady, which I enjoy.

As a bonus feature, the game offers respins. To get the free spins, you can either buy them for 100x your bet or by getting 3 bonus symbols. Thenyou get to play the respins- there's no set amount of respins, as it's all about the walking wilds. You start off the respins with 2 collected wilds which land as a stacked wild. Then the wild moves across the screen to the left hand side until he leaves the screen. What you really want to see is more tombstone symbols as collecting them gives you more wilds. I've had a few decent hits when I had 3 wild reels with multipliers at the same time, which at best has paid me over 200x bet. The respins end when there are no more walking wilds on the reels.

Overall I quite like this game. I'm a fan of the Halloween-looking slots and I do enjoy the game features. In some ways it reminds me of Jack and the Beanstalk due to the walking wilds. All in all, it's a decent game and while I haven't had any major wins, I'm happy with the few wins around 200x mark I've had.
