Blade & Fangs Slot Review

Blade & Fangs Slot Overview

Blade & Fangs sees one of the most diverse developers in the business turn to the dark side, as Pragmatic Play reveals their taste for all things horror. The skull-strewn floor suggests that entering this slot crypt may be unwise, whilst the unsettling reel symbols do little to lighten the mood. Of course, we are perfectly safe from our side of the screen (aren’t we?), and the game easily offers enough to make it worth digging out your brave pants and setting foot inside. Why have one 5x3 grid when you can have two appears to be the motto of Death and his minions, and who are we to argue? Double the reels means double the number of winning ways, and things become even better when the ghastly grid merges into one in the game's feature. Escape this horrifying lair in one piece, and you may return to safety clutching a 5,000x max win!

A horrifying theme, spookily portrayed, and a soundtrack apparently recorded in the land of nightmares, but it all adds up to a great genre slot. As far as the audio and visuals go, Pragmatic Play has hit the nail on the head and bludgeoned it some more, just to be sure ... and the gameplay isn’t too bad either. The presence of those dual reels will grab your attention at once. Happily, they are more than a gimmick, thanks to the doubled Winning Ways and Merged Reel Respin feature – both aspects which shriek into turbo mode in the progressively exciting feature. If we are being picky, we would have liked a more generous Max Win from the master of the undead, but if horror and reels sound like an enticing combination, you will love what you discover here.

Blade & Fangs Slot Features

Merged Reel Re-spin

The game features two types of Dagger Rose Symbols. The first is a +1x Rose and may appear only on reel one of the top grid. The second is an 2x Rose and may appear only on reel five of the bottom grid. Land both Roses on the same spin, and the Merged Reel will crank into gear. This feature sees the two grids combine to create a 5x6 grid, resulting in a massive 7,776 winning ways! All Merged Reel Re-spin wins benefit from an 2x Multiplier. If a +1x Rose hits during the re-spin, the winnings Multiplier increases by one. If an 2x Rose lands, the Winnings Multiplier doubles.

Free Spins Bonus

Fiery Head Scatters may appear on reels two to four of either grid. Land three, four, five, or six on a single spin, and you will be handed an instant win of 2x, 15x, 100x, or 500x on your way into the Free Spins Bonus.

You begin with eight free spins, which take place on the merged 6x5 grid. Landing three or more Scatters during the round will add four spins to your tally.

7,776 winning ways on every spin is an obvious benefit during the feature, but things get even better thanks to a General Multiplier. This multiplier begins at 1x but will be added to, and doubled, whenever Rose Dagger Symbols appear during the round and does not reset between spins.

Bonus Buy

Those wishing to skip the waiting process can move straight into Free Spins via Bonus Buy. This option randomly triggers a three to six Scatter spin for a cost of 100x the total bet. Bonus Buy is only available in eligible jurisdictions (not available to UK players).

Our Verdict Landing a single Merged Reel Re-spin adds plenty of excitement to the base game, and it’s rewarding to see the monstrous feature unleashed from its shackles in the feature. Combining a vastly increased number of winning ways with a climbing Multiplier creates a Free Spins Bonus with real bite.

Blade & Fangs Slot RTP & Volatility

RTP	Variable RTP	Volatility
96.05%	Yes	High

The top-end 96.05% Return to Player (RTP) percentage is the tip of a scythe above the industry average RTP of 96%.

The Blade & Fangs horror screams into the High-Volatility sector of the slot-o-sphere. As such, you should expect a fair share of ups and downs but a better chance of hitting a big win in a short session than in a low-medium-volatility release.

Our Verdict The top-end RTP of 96.05% represents rock-solid value. However, as a variable RTP release, alternative, lower settings of 95.02% and 94.03% are also available. We always recommend consulting the information section of the game to discover the setting in use at your online casino of choice. A game taking place in a creepy crypt populated by all manner of undesirables could only ever fall into the high category.

Blade & Fangs Slot Graphics & Audio

Graphics

The macabre setting boasts an eerie cinematic quality and has been beautifully created by the graphics team. The dust motes sparkling in the air and carpet of skulls suggest that this place hasn’t seen much sign of life in quite some time. The excellent use of shadows and flickering candles perfectly fit the theme and lend real depth to the scene. The reels themselves spin on a chain-powered, blood-spattered gurney/guillotine, gruesomely enhanced by the detailed illustrations of the sinister cast, which pop nastily against the darkened backdrop.

Audio

If the visuals leave you a little unsettled, prepare to be seriously unnerved by the outstanding soundtrack. An unrelenting blade scrapes over stone throughout, being sharpened by who knows whom and for who knows what. That’s bad enough on its own without the addition of howls, swooping spectral wails, and a baritone voice speaking in a thankfully unintelligible language. And there’s the screaming. Oh god, the screaming…

Our Verdict Simply brilliant. As fans of the genre, we were always likely to be drawn into this one, but even so, the visuals stand out as being a notch above those found in many similar titles, and the effort and work put in by the sound team is stellar.

Blade & Fangs Slot on Mobile

We certainly wouldn’t enter this deathly setting without our mobile, as a phone call for help would likely be required. Playing the game on your small screen device isn’t quite as harrowing, and it's also very easy.
