Bloodsuckers

Blood Suckers is a rather unique release from the popular game developer NetEnt which came out in 2013. It could be argued that the graphics haven’t aged as well as the immortal main characters, but it is still one of the most popular slots to this day. Why you ask? The reason lies in the fact that it is the NetEnt slot with the highest return-to-player (RTP) rate ever, an impressive 98.0%! Very few slots out there are able to offer a number of this calibre.\n\nThe game itself, as the name indicates, is a story of the undead and the player holds the role of vampire hunter.

Besides the fact that all symbols of value are from the legends of vampires, you will also find a bonus game where you, as tradition dictates will have to kill blood sucking creatures by pushing wooden stakes through their hearts. If you ever wondered which online video slot offers the best odds look no further, and this makes Blood Suckers one of the greatest casino games ever created. We recommend it wholeheartedly. If the graphics feel a bit dated, check out the sequel Blood Suckers II.

Blood Suckers is a slot developed by NetEnt. It has 5 reels and 3 rows in view. There are 25 paylines, or ways for the symbols to align in order to create a win, and we need a series of three or more symbols of the same kind starting from the leftmost reel. That is all, super easy, even for first time vampire hunters.

Before you venture down the eerie castle catacombs and begin your hunt for the undead you need to select your bet level and coin value. There are 4 bet levels available and the coin value can be set from £0.01 to £2 (note that this can be adjusted on the operator side as well, but the number we just gave is the most commonly used).

This will result in a rather slim wager range spanning from £0.25 up to £50 per spin. When the game was first launched the max bet went all the way up to £500 per spin, but we have a feeling that the high RTP made online casinos vary of allowing higher bets and drastically reduced the number. Once you have adjusted the bet size the only thing left to do is to douse yourself in holy water and let the hunt begin. Hit the spin button to set the reels in motion, which you can do manually or by using the auto spin option, and sit back.

Three or more bonus symbols in a row on a payline will take you to the bonus game. You will now be taken deeper into the vampire castle and a chamber filled with coffins. Here, in the shadows, hidden from lethal sunlight, vampires are getting their beauty sleep.

Your job is to pick a coffin, if there’s a vampire in it you will hammer your stake through their chest and win a random number of coins. If the next coffin that you open also contains a vampire you will continue with the game, and so on, until you run out of coffins or open an empty one. Completing the bloody bonus game flawlessly will net you 178 times your wager. We can all probably agree that this is the only time in our lives where we actually wish to stumble upon a vampire.

Let’s get into the Free Spins feature which is by far our favourite part of the game. There's no doubt that most slot fanatics love a good Free Spins feature, and Blood Suckers’ free spins round does everything the right way. You trigger the your free rounds by having 3 or more of the Vampire Bride symbols showing on any of your reels, in other words it is a scatter symbol, independent of paylines. But there’s more...if you happen to have 4 of these symbols you will also win a coin win worth 25x your stake, and with 5 symbols you will win 100x your stake! Stake...get it? Vampire stake? Never mind.

The Free Spins feature starts with 10 free rounds and works just like the main game, but with a multiplier (x3) present during all of them. During your free spins you can win additional rounds by the same mechanic as the main game, i.e. 3 or more scatter symbols. Additional free spins won't be multiplied. The possibility of winning additional free rounds, in combination with the multiplier, is simple and far from revolutionising, but this isn’t necessarily a bad thing. You will find plenty of excitement during Blood Suckers’ free spins and a single round can actually give you up to 900 times your bet!
