Slot Review: Spooky Slots

We really like scary movies. Our philosophy is: the more terrifying, the better! On any given Friday night you can find us at the video store, perusing the horror section and debating between the freaky, the gory, the supernatural, and the “just plain weird.” Spooky Slots was probably intended to be a Halloween slot game, but we decided to go ahead and review it – after all, this is one pokey that is right up our alley. Ultimately, we decided that Spooky Slots is a fruit machine title that is less spooky than serviceable, and less blood-curdling than cute and cuddly.

Spooky Slots is a five-reel, five-payline online slot machine title by Gamesys. Coin values start at a value of twenty cents and range upwards to a value of one dollar. Max coins is set at a value of twenty-five, or five coins per payline on a single wager. This makes the per-spin max one of twenty-five dollars. The jackpot is two thousand coins, or two thousand dollars. Not a bad little jackpot by any means, but nothing exceptional, either.

The black-hatted witch is the jackpot symbol for this terrifyingly terrific online slot. Her cartoon-y purple face fits in perfectly alongside toothless depictions of a jack o’ lantern, a mummy, a werewolf, and the Frankenstein monster (complete with Hollywood-authentic bolts in his neck.) There are no wilds, scatters, multipliers, or bonuses. This means that slot novices are more likely to enjoy Spooky Slots than anyone else, charming though it may be.
