Frankenstein Slot

While there are many slot games based on one of literature's most infamous monsters, the Frankenstein slot from Net Entertainment could easily claim to be a creation of epic proportions. Thanks to a deal with Universal Pictures, the game has a real cinematic feeling to it. The gamescape, graphics, and icons are of superb quality. The game's characters have been stylised to have an air of movie character mystery to them, with Doctor Frankenstein, his nephew and assistant Fritz and the Monster itself spinning across the moody reels. They're joined by symbols featuring jarred brains and classic card icons, in addition to Windmill Scatters and Lightning and Fire Wilds, which unlock free spins and bonus features. The return-to-gamer level of 96.7% also gives kudos to NetEnt for fair payouts.

You can spin the Frankenstein slot from as little as 0.01 over one payline, all the way up to a max bet of 100.00, with coin sizes from £0.01 to £0.50 giving plenty of bankroll options. The 1,500 coin jackpot is by video slot standards relatively unspectacular, but it comes with the advantage of being paid out more often than mega jackpot games. There's also a large range of winning combos and bonuses to enjoy:

Scatter Free Spin Bonus

The Windmill was infamously the place where Frankenstein was nearly scorched to death in the finale of the original film – and the icon holds bonus power when unleashed, delivering 10 free spins when it appears. You can gain five to ten more free spins when two or three Windmills appear during the bonus round. Lastly, the Windmill bonus also enables you to land 5x multipliers on reel five – show me the money, Dr F.

Fire and Lightning Wild Power

Frankenstein comes with two powerful Wilds – Lightning and Fire. The Lightning Wild can appear on reels two, three and four and turn two or more adjacent reel positions wild to enhance win potential. The Fire Wild appears exclusively during the Free Spin bonus and acts in the same way as the Lightning – with the bonus that you're guaranteed to get one or more on every spin.

The lab results are in: NetEnt's Frankenstein slot is something of a modern masterpiece and with a higher chance of a jackpot than mega-payout machines, it's definitely worth a few of your shillings. There's no interactive bonus screen game, which is surprising, but it still goes down as one of the most impressive slots around.
