Red Tiger is taking us to a spooky dungeon where three monsters are chained and locked up, and the only light we get comes from the torches attached to thick brick walls. You might wonder why anybody wants to unchain monsters and release their powers, especially in such surroundings. Well, because monsters in this game bring special features that potentially increase your wins.
About Monsters Unchained
In its base game, Monsters Unchained is a 5x3 video slot with 243 paylines. It is a highly volatile slot game. This Red Tiger slot has nine paying symbols, five lower-paying card symbols, and four higher-paying symbols that you would expect to find in a dungeon: a shackle, an axe, a lantern, and a treasure chest. The game also features progressive hourly and daily jackpots.
Nicholas Peters, Chief Business Development Officer Europe at Evolution, briefly described the game: “Red Tiger’s Monsters Unchained brings mythological monsters to the reels. The team has come up with a superb concept of freeing the beasts from their chains to unleash exciting features on every tenth spin.”
The short stateful progressive nature of the slot keeps players engaged as they hope to get all the three Monsters Unchained.
Unchain the Monsters
First, let’s meet our monsters. They are familiar creatures from Greek mythology, the Minotaur, part bull and part man, Medusa, with her snake hair, and Cerberus, the three-headed dog. Each monster has its own colour and a grid meter that fills gradually when a golden hammer with a matching-colour gem lands on the reels.
Monsters get released every tenth spin if any part of their chains was broken during the previous nine spins:
- Minotaur expands the playing grid up to three rows, depending on how many of its chains the player breaks.
- Medousa adds Wilds to the tenth spin to help players form more winning combinations. One, two or three broken chains add from two to seven Wilds on reels 2-4.
- Cerberus awards multipliers from 2x to 7x depending on how many of its chains get broken.
Monster Free Spins
Getting at least Monster Spins scatter symbols triggers the Monster Spins round. You will get ten Free Spins, and every feature you activate becomes active from the next Free Spin. Expanded reels and multipliers remain active throughout the feature, and Medousa randomly adds Wilds to each spin.
If you manage to break all three chains for one monster, you will get additional three Free Spins, and it is possible to break all the chains during the Free Spins round, meaning that you could end up with up to 19 Free Spins.
We bet monsters never sounded less scary!
