The Winning Dead Slot
We don’t even need to see a screenshot to know what this slot from Arrow’s Edge is themed around. The hit series The Walking Dead has been running for a few years now, so it was inevitable that a slot inspired by it would be released eventually. Here we have such a slot, in the form of The Winning Dead from Cayetano.
This 5-reel, 25-payline slot gives zombie fans the chance to win a jackpot of 5,000 coins or even the progressive jackpot linked to this game. With symbols including guns, zombies and chainsaws fans of the zombie genre are sure to enjoy a spin on this slot game.
Time to Slay Some Zombies
What many fans might not realise is that The Walking Dead series was originally a comic book series and appropriately, the characters and artwork of this game are of a somewhat cartoonish 3D style. The backdrop here is a rundown city, with skyscrapers and a movie theatre visible behind the reels.
The symbols here include characters Jackson and Anne Belle, our hero and heroine in this battle against the zombies. We also have a couple of items of weaponry in the form of a gun and a chainsaw, and possibly medicine or an antidote in the shape of a syringe. Of course, we also have a zombie, who acts as the Wild in this game. We’re not sure why there’s only one zombie featured in the game; anyone who’s watched the TV series will know there are many, many zombies to battle and run from.
Fortunately, we do see some more zombies in the bonus game, which is triggered when 3 zombie Wilds land on the reels, taking you to one of four creepy backdrops such as a graveyard or amusement park. Arriving at one of the scenes give you the chance to shoot up to five zombies in the head, giving you a win.
What’s What
This 5 reel, 25 payline game has a potential jackpot of 5,000 coins and is also linked to a progressive jackpot which can randomly drop at any time. Coin values range from 0.01 to 10.00, meaning your maximum bet for all 25 paylines being active is 250.00 and on this slot, you can adjust the number of active paylines.
The Zombie Wild is a good feature on this game; if you land one of these in a winning combination then it doubles your win. Unfortunately, this is not a stacking wild so landing two won’t multiply your win any further. However, landing 3 will give you access to the cool bonus game, where you must spend a night in one of four spooky settings and kill up to five zombies for extra cash prizes.
The other nice feature here is the Syringe Scatter symbol, landing three of these anywhere on the reels gives you 10 free spins that can also be retriggered so may go on for a little while. During this free spins round you’ll also receive a 3x multiplier on your wins and when combined with the Zombie Wild, a 6x multiplier. The luckiest outcome of these free spins would be to land three of the Zombie Wild, as you can play the bonus game during the free spins feature and have your winnings from this bonus game also multiplied 3x!
Other symbols here include the characters, a couple of weapons and some generic symbols, all of which will payout a minimum of 100 coins when landed on all five reels. The pay table below has all the details.
Grab a Gun and Take out Some Zombies
This is a fun slot game, which while its graphics are not as advanced as many other video slots out there, does have enough features and a cool theme to appeal to players. The top prize of 5,000 coins is also a draw and accessible to all budgets as stakes start as low as 0.01. The bonus game is definitely the star here and if you’re lucky enough to trigger this during the free spins round then you could be in for some great wins, multiplied three times!
Grab a weapon and join Jackson and Anne Belle in their quest to defeat the zombies.
