Horror Hotel

Horror Hotel Review

This feels more like a playful horror game than a genuinely spooky one, with vibrant animations and pleasing graphics throughout. Horror Hotel uses a 6x6 grid with cluster wins, offering potential payouts of up to 5,000x from a single cluster. The grid is set in a graveyard with a looming castle under a bright moon.

The bonus round takes you inside the castle reception. The base game centers on a Mystery symbols feature where winning symbols become mystery symbols for a respin, repeating if the win improves or a new win is formed. The bonus round offers a progressive multiplier and increasing guaranteed wilds. The 20,000x max win is substantial.

Horror Hotel Slot Features

Symbols pay between 500 and 5,000 x your stake for 35+ in a cluster, and between 0.1 and 1 x your stake for at least 5 matching symbols. The Wild symbol substitutes for other symbols to help create wins, and non-winning symbols are removed via a Cascading mechanic that operates uniquely.

All winning symbols, including wilds, transform into Mystery symbols. A respin follows as all non-winning symbols vanish, with the mystery symbols falling to the grid's bottom before new symbols appear. The mystery symbols transform into a randomly selected matching symbol. The process continues if the original win is improved or a new win occurs.

The Bonus Round activates with 3 scatters, granting 5 free spins. +1 additional free spin is awarded per extra triggering scatter. Scatters also award +1 extra spin during the feature. You are guaranteed one wild on the first spin, and another is added per following spin. The win multiplier increases by +1 per cluster win, without resetting.

Players in eligible regions can use the Bonus Buy feature for 100x your stake, guaranteeing at least 3 triggering scatters on the subsequent spin. The RTP increases to 96.5 % with a purchased bonus round.

Review Summary

This game evolves beyond just a simple copy of an older game. You don't need a wild to trigger the mystery symbol feature, but symbol values are adjusted. Winning up to 5,000x is still possible.

Getting only 5 free spins remains a risk, potentially cutting the feature short. The mystery symbol respins offer extension, while the increasing wilds aid in generating cluster wins. This enhances the value of extra spins, where you can still win up to 20,000x your stake. Overall, Horror Hotel is a high-quality release.
