Creature From The Black Lagoon

If you are acquainted with the film, it is almost a certainty that you are acquainted with the classic Creature from the Black Lagoon. This now cult horror film from 1954 ran in New Zealand under the title the horror of the Black Lagoon, and although we are probably few who have seen it, it has a solid place in the horror films hall of fame. The title basically reveals the plot-a Black Lagoon hides a terrible creature that feasts on those who dare to dip their toes into the water. Almost 60 years after the film was released, it is time for entry into the world of slot machines.

The slot machine Creature from the Black Lagoon has a great appearance with a clear 1950s look. This is a 5-reel, 3-row, and 20-bet-line machine (you have to play all 20 bet lines, but you can choose how many coins and what value to set for them). A spin costs between 2 and 1,000 dollars, depending on how you configure the number of coins, the value of the coins, and so on. Obviously, that makes the range very clear.

Symbols and functions

Basically, it's the very heart of the game mechanics of Creature from the Black Lagoon that centers around the free spins. Activate the free spins with 3 or more free spin symbols anywhere on the reels. 3 symbols mean 10 spins, 4 means 15 spins, and 5 means 20 spins. When you actually get to play the free spins, a cinematic sequence plays out. We don't want to spoil it for you, but let's just say that you get a chance to 'spank the monster' and save the beautiful Kay. The better you do this, the better your profits.

The slot machine has another core component: wilds. Wilds work very similarly to how they have always worked in slots—substituting for other symbols to create more and better winning combinations. What makes wilds in this game even more interesting is that they are "sticky" wilds. This means that a wild symbol not only substitutes for the other symbols but also grants you an additional spin. And what could be better than winning more with wilds? So there are the wilds (the sticky kind), and there is no extra pay for getting a wild. But could the wilds get any better?

Summary

Creature from the Black Lagoon ranks among the most scrumptious slot machines we have laid our eyes on. If the 50s aesthetic, a comfortably cozy milieu, and very cinematic scores strike your fancy, you will be in your element. When you set loose a number of free spins and expanding sticky wilds, the pace of the possible wins can reach a fever pitch, and we promise you will have an absolute blast.

If you want to try another sea-themed slot machine, we can recommend Silent Run from Netent.
