Blood Suckers was released by Net Entertainment back in 2009 and to this day it remains one of their most played online slot machines.
This week NetEnt announced that Blood Suckers will be going mobile, with the release date set for 21st August, as part of their incredible Touch series of games. Their Touch range of games is rapidly growing with popular titles such as Gonzo’s Quest and Subtopia already available.
The Blood Suckers slot machine, as the title suggests, is a Vampire-themed game which has a dark and murky feel about it. It contains a total of 5 reels and 25 paylines, with 1-4 coins available to bet each line and coin values ranging from €0.01 to €0.50, meaning a maximum bet of €50 is available on each and every spin. There is also an autoplay feature built in to Blood Suckers where you can set the slot to spin for between 10 and 1,000 times, with settings available to stop the slot should it activate a bonus feature or land a win worth a specific total you enter which is a nice touch.
The gory symbols used by NetEnt add to the overall theme of the slot (as does the spooky background music) and include Count Dracula, Vampire Bride (scatter), Dracula biting a female (wild), bloody stake (bonus symbol), garlic, holy water, bible, a crossbow, and several other spooky characters. The symbol of Dracula biting a female is the games Wild symbol and highest value in the game, with 5 of them on the reels at one time landing you 7,500 coins and it substitutes for any other symbol apart from the bonus and scatter symbols. Garlic is the lowest paying symbol in the game with five of them earning you a mere 75 coins.
The Blood Suckers slot machine has two bonus features on offer – a free spins mode and a basic bonus game.
In order to activate the free spins mode on Blood Suckers you will need to land three or more of the Vampire Bride symbols (scatter). This triggers your free spins with a total of ten awarded to you which contain a 3x multiplier bonus and they can prove to be very lucrative indeed.
The other feature is the bonus game which is activated by landing three or more of the Bloody Stake symbols (bonus) in a row from left to right on the reels. You are then taken to another screen where you will see twelve coffins, each with a skull logo on the front of them. This is a basic ‘click me’ game where you must select coffins at random and should a Vampire be in one you will stake it and be rewarded with a random amount of coins. This continues and your wins are combined until you open an empty coffin, which sees the bonus feature end and your winnings awarded.
Overall this is certainly one of the best NetEnt slot machines and it is a welcome addition to the NetEnt Touch selection of games, adding a little spooky variety to the games available on mobile.
