Fear the Dark Slot Free Play & Review

Fear the Dark slot free play consists of a playing field with six rows and six reels as well as Clusters payouts. The volatility of the game is medium, and the RTP varies, with the highest value being 96.25%. The maximum amount you can get as a payout is 5,000 times your bet, which can start from a minimum of 0.10 CAD and go up to 100 CAD.

Hacksaw has had several slots recently with Horror themes. We have to admit that they’re not one of our favourites, but they clearly have their fans since the developer keeps releasing similar games. Naturally, the game looks a bit creepy as the action takes place in a graveyard, and the symbols consist of many ghosts, monsters, pig and clone heads, a cross, a tombstone and a candle. When a multiplier appears on any of the symbols, which is shown above the playing field, at the same moment, the moon also appears.

Features of Fear the Dark Slot

• You have won the game if you have landed 5 or more matching symbols in a cluster anywhere on the grid. The premium symbols have the potential to pay up to 120 times your initial wager.
• Every winning symbol is eliminated by the Cascading mechanism, and it is then succeeded by brand-new symbols or previously seen symbols that cascade down from above. This continues for as long as you keep hitting fresh winning clusters.
• You will see that there are five symbol-formed spots that are vacant above the standard grid. Depending on where in view you land the Moon Head Scatter, two to five of these locations will become active. The active spots are filled with premium symbols, and the win multiplier for each activated position ranges from 2x to 100x, depending on the value of the premium symbol that is present. Winning clusters that are formed from the relevant symbols will get an increase in their multiplier thanks to the Symbol Multipliers.
• In order to activate the Bonus Round, you must first locate at least three or four of the candle Scatters. This awards you with 10 or 15 Free Spins, depending on which you land, and during the bonus round, your chances of getting the Moon Head Scatter symbol are enhanced. During the bonus round, every Scatter that you land awards you with an additional four Free Spins.
• After you have used all of your Free Spins, the bonus round will go to the Darkness Mode, and each time you enter this mode, you will get an additional two Free Spins. If you are playing Darkness Mode, the grid will decrease to 4×4 for the first spin, then to 2×2, and then it will return to its normal size of 6×6 if you are successful in landing the Moon Scatter symbol.
• There is a Bonus Buy Menu with four different choices.

Our opinion

The game proved to be quite interesting, with cluster wins appearing almost constantly, and then, thanks to the cascading reels, this led to a series of payouts. We also have two types of Scatters, with one bringing us a multiplier on certain symbols and the other sending us into the Free Spins round.

There are plenty of opportunities to win; unfortunately, most of them are low paying. The maximum win of 5,000 times your bet may sound quite tempting, but you have to be very careful and keep an eye on your account as it is possible that, despite the many consecutive clusters you form, it slowly то decreases.
