Scatter Brains Slot Machine
You know what doesn’t help during a zombie outbreak? Having a scatter brain! You see it all the time in the movies - someone forgets the most basic of rules and ends up with their brains inside a zombie's’ mouth, and that can never end well.
In a twist of fate, well, irony, Scatter Brains from Geco Gaming has given you a glance into the post apocalyptic outlook of the future, and it seems pretty bleak. Bleak but colourful. Players will be immersed and welcomed into a group of survivors, all of them trying their hardest to save their brains, limbs and general body parts from the horde that awaits them.
Although it sounds very 28 Days Later, this online slot machine is a lot more gentle on the eyes and softer on the nerves, making it a charming little trip down gore lane. Awwww.
With wandering zombies, a whole lotta brains and a whopping 30 paylines to game with, how will you make it out of this alive?! Read on to find out - think of this as a handy survival guide from us to you.
Mmmm, Brains
Sorry, but you’re going to have brains on your… brain when playing this game, mainly because of the title, but also due to the fact that the scatter is a bloodied up pink lump that comes from of our craniums. Tasty it isn’t, but rewarding it is. This is because three of these babies will gift you five free games and a little bit of cash for good measure, though it’s only 27.00 credits so don’t get too excited just yet.
During the course of these bonus spins, you’ll note that a few wandering undead start to appear on your 5-reels, subbing icons as they go (as they’re the wild). While they can deliver a comfortable 150.00 credits should you get five of them, what is most entertaining about them is that they can eat the survivors you’ve come to know and trust. We mean bye bye Ray (whoever he is), and hello to zombie Ray! The more wandering zombies you have the better, as odd as that sounds – it’s almost like Geco Gaming is rewarding you for being in such a sticky situation.
If you’re fortunate enough to get more brains landing on your grid when you’re playing these free rounds, then you’ll experience a x2 multiplier to help along those winnings, which we can’t grumble at. Though given you’ve just been transformed, we have to admit that brains would be better now that you’re all zombified.
Paying the Ultimate Price
Luckily for all involved, you don’t have to sacrifice your life for real in order to play, in fact you only need bet from 0.30 credits and you’ll be off on your apocalyptic adventure in no time! Setting the amount you wish to bet is easy thanks to the plus and minus symbols, making clicking through the total a breeze; the max you can put down at any one time is 45.00 credits.
From what we’ve gleamed, the paylines are fixed into place, which is probably why the starting point is so low – as a peace offering to those gamers out there that dislike having to play with the full amount as it normally means high betting ranges.
Your autospin option is quite thorough here and will ask you a few questions that you need to confirm before it gets started. It will want to know the max amount you want to stake, how many rounds you want to automatically spin, and then whether you have a loss or win limit you want to impose. Finally, when you’ve set all that you can get to it. Sometimes options feel tedious when you’re desperate to get to it, but this is actually a great way of ensuring the title does everything you want it to, at least gameplay wise.
Will You Survive?
This slot machine from Geco is a good ‘un, not the best, but it’s pretty darn close and that’s enough of a win for us. The features aren’t as extensive as they could be, but the fact that the company has made it so unique makes up for that fact.
Scatter Brains is great for all players, but we reckon it’s the die hard zombie fans out there (we’re looking at you) who will really connect with this title.
