Frankenslot’s Monster
You ever wonder what would happen if the good Dr. Frankenstein built himself a slot machine instead of a monster? Well, good news! You don’t have to wonder anymore!
Frankenslot’s Monster comes at you just in time for the Halloween season but with plenty of minigame action to keep the wins coming at you all throughout the year! The Doctor has teamed up with BetSoft to bring you this 3D slot with its 20 paylines, free spins, and minigames to jolt up Frankenstein’s Monster and get him to come off of some of that money!
Screenshots
What’s in the Lab?
Visually, Frankenslot’s Monster is not the most beautiful slot of all time, but it’s still nice, BetSoft did come up with a very nice background for this. The player will find themselves in the Doctors Lab messing around with his equipment while they spin away to get their wins. The artist(s) did work hard on this and it shows, however, this background image is a static image. The Monster is just kind of staring off into nowhere while the creepy little Doctor just stares at you while you do the work. When you hit a win the Monster will look at you and smile, so that’s nice, but even then this image is static, it’s not animated, so you’re really just looking at a solid background while going through the normal spins.
Audibly, this is where one of the 2 problems arrive. While spinning, you’ll hear the reels turning and hear the reels stopping, but there’s no background music. After playing for a while the player may get tired of hearing the same “Thud thud thud thud thud” over and over. That’s just not pleasant for an otherwise great slot. Our advice? When the player is taking money from the Doctor load up some music from somewhere else and listen to that!
Electric Wins
Paylines
The 20 paylines that are in Frankenslot’s Monster are not adjustable meaning that you’re going to get no more, no less, you don’t get to control them which may be the other downside to this otherwise great slot machine, (along with the lack of audio). The player can, however, adjust the amount of bets per line, (1-5) and the amount of credits each bet is worth, (0.01-0.35) making this slot within reach of any player regardless of the size of their bankroll.
Bonus Symbols
Frankenslot’s Monster does come along with some Wild Symbols to be on the watch for. These take the form of an Electric Panel with the word “Bonus” slapped all over it making sure that you don’t miss it. Get 3 of these symbols on the board and it’s mini game time! (These symbols will appear on reels 1, 3, and 5.)
Mini Game
When the player gets to the minigame, Frankenslot’s Monster leaves a little to be desired in the form of not really explaining what the player should be doing. They’ll be presented with a box with 4 levers on it. The player is then expected to adjust the levers to their liking and then “hit a switch” to collect their prize which is the players bet, multiplied by up to 25x.
So, it stands to reason that it doesn’t really matter what the player does during this minigame, the prize has already been selected by the slot itself, it’s really just giving you a little something else to do for a moment and feel as though they made a difference. However, the players bet being multiplied by as much as 25x? Well, that’s nothing to sneeze at at all!
Scatter Symbols
Who doesn’t love some Free Spins? They’re really the best and Frankenslot’s Monster loves to hand them out! To get these spins the player will be looking to match up 3 of the “Scatter Symbols”. These are like the Bonus symbols we have discussed but they have “Scatter” written on them so that the player doesn’t miss those! Match 3 of these and the free spins will start up. The player will originally be given 8 free spins during this initial round and it is possible to obtain more free spins while doing this!
Double the Wins
And for the last feature here, it’s the favorite of many players, the Double Your Wins feature! How this works is this: After you win on any spin you’ll be given the option to “flip a coin”. Choose this and the player will then be asked to choose from Heads or Tails. The coin will then flip and the player will either, A) lose the toss and forfeit their wins, or B) win the toss and double those wins! Feeling lucky? You can do this just as many times as you want!
Reanimated Gameplay
Like 99% of the other slots that are out on the market, the player will be looking to match 3 or more symbols going from left to right with the slot paying out for these matches, the highest win per line paid.
As for these symbols, this is what one is playing with while fooling around with Frankenslot’s Monster as well as what they pay:
- 10’s | Match 3 = 5, Match 4 = 10, Match 5 = 20
- Jacks | Match 3 = 10, Match 4 = 20, Match 5 = 40
- Queens | Match 3 = 15, Match 4 = 30, Match 5 = 60
- Kings | Match 3 = 20, Match 4 = 40, Match 5 = 80
- Aces | Match 3 = 25, Match 4 = 50, Match 5 = 100
- Lab Lamp | Match 3 = 30, Match 4 = 75, Match 5 = 150
- Evil Eye | Match 3 = 50, Match 4 = 100, Match 5 = 200
- Full Moon | Match 3 = 75, Match 4 = 150, Match 5 = 300
- The Doctor | Match 3 = 80, Match 4 = 200, Match 5 = 400
- The Monster | Match 3 = 100, Match 4 = 250, Match 5 = 500
And then last, but not least, is The Wild Symbol!
The Wild Symbol can show up anywhere, anytime, and will substitute for any other symbols except for the Bonus and Scatter symbols. Matching some of these will net the player:
- Match 3 = 200
- Match 4 = 500
- Match 5 = 1000
Final Thoughts
There is a specific group of people that will always love the Universal Classic Monsters. Dracula, the Mummy, Wolfman, and of course, Frankenstein. Will those players love Frankenslot’s Monster? Oh, absolutely.
For everyone else, they may not have the same love for it, but it’s still worth at least checking out! We hit up on the 2 downsides of this slot, (the audio and the non-adjustable paylines) but if you were to look over those 2 issues you’ll still have a great time! BetSoft made a great looking slot here and once you add in the wilds, the scatters, the minigames, the free spins, and the possibility to double all of your winnings and you’re looking at a fantastic time!
