Lord of Darkness Slots

When you go down to the woods tonight you’re going… to find blood, gore and lots of screams when you play Lord of Darkness. This Stakelogic slot machine isn’t playing around when it comes to delivering the horror factor; they’re in it to win it, as the atmospheric reels demonstrate. When you surrender yourself to the darkness, you’ll be saying a bittersweet goodbye to the life you once knew.

We’d hate to scare you before you even get started, but we feel it’s only fair that we recite the dastardly tales of what’s befallen others who’ve ventured this far into the game. Some of them walk away with buckets of money, having beaten the lord himself, but others aren’t so lucky. They leave, that’s for sure, but usually horizontally, with their bodies soon reanimating once night falls.

Trick or Treat

It might be a Halloween saying, but you can actually ask this of those who knock upon your door all year round (though they might become creeped out). Should you want to be that horror loving gamer, wearing fake fangs and sitting in a white sheet, you need to try the 3D extravaganza that is Under the Bed, from Betsoft. As the title suggests, this is all about the fears we had as children, only now they’re all in one easy to play place.

Unlike Lord of Darkness, the visually are more modern and have a slightly more colourful undertone to them, however it’s still essentially about being scared to death. What is more, it too delivers free spins and wilds just like Stakelogic have here, with the only difference being that there’s a gamble feature included. Basically, you’ll get a similar but very different experience if you try this alternative out.

Unleash Your Monstrous Side

Assuming you’ve loaded up the 5 reels and 25 paylines of this slot machine, you’ll have seen that on either side of the gruesome matrix stands a man and a woman. They look like upstanding citizens that seem to have found themselves in the wrong place at the wrong time. So much so that they can transform into monsters at the drop of a hat, a process that also takes place on the reels as well.

This is because the two figures are extra wilds; there’s already a wild icon in the mix, but then these two can show up and triple your wins. That is if they all turn up in one go, which is highly unlikely in all honesty, but at least they look really cool when they monster out and go all feral. The minimum bet here is 0.25, while you can go all the way up to 50.00.

Let Me Out!

Alongside the wild and extras, there’s the bonus symbol, which takes the form of a flaming coffin. Creepy though it is, you’ll want to find this icon as often as possible because it’s linked to the free games feature of the slot machine. The number of spins you can get depends on the number of symbols you match, as well as which of the symbols on the grid you select to reveal your prize.

It’s a simple system that we’ve all come into contact with at one time or another, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t enjoy the simplicity of what it’s offering. So many real cash slots are desperate to be the next big thing, so much so that they try all sorts of (unsuccessful) features. With a slot like Lord of Darkness, you get a feature that you know delivers every time, well, in a sense. As always, you have the issue of volatility to contend with.

After Dark

We always go the extra mile when we play slot machines, so you can rest assured that we’re delivering the most honest and accurate information possible. Lord of Darkness is an excellent slot machine, but it’s not going to steal the limelight from other slots of the same theme. The reason being is due to the fact that adheres too closely to what we’ve come to know and expect of the horror genre; we get what we expect, but not always what we want. Personally, we want change, followed by more depth.

However, while we have some negative feelings toward this title, we have to say that overall we enjoyed playing it and would give it another go. Preferably with the lights on and all the doors locked - you can never be too safe. We’d like to keep our experiences inside the matrix and on our screens, not bring them to life.
