Reading Time: 2 minutes
Provider’s bone-chilling slot is back for a second instalment and with bigger bonuses, bigger frights and even bigger wins
Think you are brave enough to return to the Castle of Terror? This lab experiment-horror sequel from Big Time Gaming is a bone-chilling adventure packed with electrifying features designed to give you the fright of your life.
This is a slot where players find themselves in a spooky lab where they must brace themselves for Bonus Respins that are triggered by landing Scatters. When they drop, they awaken monstrous reels with different Bonuses coming into play depending on where the Scatter lands.
This includes:
Brains – extra Brains land on the reels.
Alive – A random Win Multiplier is applied to all wins.
Shock – Wilds reveal Random Multipliers.
Monster – A random symbol becomes Wild on reels two to five
Horror – A random reel will be filled with Wilds.
If one or more Scatters appear during the Bonus Respin, the lab erupts into chaos, triggering 10 Free Spins for a spine-tingling time. But if two or three Scatters drop, the experiment escalates with another 10 Free Spins awarded.
During Free Spins, the Win Multiplier begins at 1x but mutates after every winning spin, amplifying rewards with each electrifying jolt. Free Spins also come infused with Bonuses, which collide to make each round terrifying and thrilling.
Depending on which reels the triggering Scatters landed, players might find that the machine gun surges again, granting four Extra Spins plus two more for each additional Scatter beyond the second.
For those who dare to take control, the Bonus Buy feature lets players pull the lever instantly. For 100x the stake, charge up 10 Free Spins with two bonuses, or for 300x, unleash 10 Enhanced Free Spins with three bonuses.
With Castle of Terror II, players get to step into the lab but must brace themselves… their creation may be more powerful than they ever imagined.
Nik Robinson, CEO at Big Time Gaming, said: “Castle of Terror II is a terrifying slot that’s not for the faint-hearted. Players find themselves in a spooky lab where creepy experiments take place, but if they can hold their nerve, there are plenty of bonus features to discover.”
“The action starts with the Bonus Respins and the various features that can play out across the reels. But the real experimental stuff happens in the Free Spins, where bonuses collide and big wins can emerge from the chaos.”
“Castle of Terror II really does put players on the edge of their seats with heart-stopping action and plenty of unexpected jump scares. Think you have what it takes to enter the Castle of Terror for the second time? There’s only one way to find out.”
