Zombies

Launched in 2012, Zombies doesn’t pack in as many features as is often the case with NetEnt slots. Still, it offers exciting and interesting gameplay in spite of this and it’s hard to fault a slot that has such an engaging atmosphere to it. The characters may be dearly departed but this game is as fresh as we’ve come to expect from NetEnt’s production team.

Zombies bonus features

On launching this casino game, players are treated to a horrific sight. A shopping mall, its walls splattered with blood, the sound of saws on the air, is teeming with zombies, all of whom seem to suddenly notice your presence.

Not to worry though. You’re in no real danger, only the chance to claim some serious wins on this game. Even before bonus features are activated, there are some generous symbols that come into play.

The blood-soaked circular saw is the most valuable symbol on these reels, capable of delivering up to 1,000 coins. In second place, the gas mask, which awards up to 700 coins, and an unaccompanied brain is also valuable, worth up to 600 coins.

A lone eyeball symbol, which makes us wonder who exactly is donating all these body parts, can award players up to 500 coins. A bloody baseball bat, complete with nails embedded in it, and an axe each have the potential to award 400 coins. The other, low-value symbols are the card suits, which appear to have been daubed on a wall in blood.

Wilds

The standard Wild symbol appears as a disembodied heart and can substitute for all other symbols except the Scatter. The Wild can appear on all reels except reel 3.

Wilds can appear as Stacked, which only occurs on reel 5 and can cover up to 3 symbols. When it appears only partially, it gets a helpful nudge in order to complete any winning combinations. The Stacked Wild does not occur during free spins.

Random Wilds can appear, you guessed it, at random on any spin that did not land a free spin or stacked wilds. In this feature, up to 6 symbols can be transformed into Wilds, boosting the chances for a win.

Zombies Free Spins and Zombie Score

Free spins are triggered by the Scatter symbol. Land 3 symbols on reels 2, 3 and 4 to receive 5 free spins. Winnings are subject to a multiplier after every spin in this mode, so the first spin will be x1, the second spin x2 and so on, until the maximum of x10 on the fifth spin. No additional free spins can be triggered during free spins mode.

During the features, the Zombie Score comes into play. After every round, the reels fade away, revealing several zombies just waiting to take a bit. Take up the rifle, aim and fire – each shot can hit between 2 and 5 zombies, each of which will award a coin win.

Zombies jackpot

There is no progressive jackpot in Zombies. However, it does have an enticing max win and an RTP that will have risk-taking players paying close attention.

RTP

The Return to Player for this scary slot is 97.2%, which places it higher than average for many slot games. In combination with a medium variance, this means that players can expect slightly higher wins at an average frequency.

Zombies on Mobile

We’re not sure many people would like the idea of bringing a zombie to anything but mobile players who want to play Zombies can do so. This NetEnt mobile slot is accessible on iPhone, iPad and Android devices.
