Hell’Sing Slot Review

Introduction

My third decade of life revealed a hidden talent I never knew I possessed – shapeshifting. No matter how many times I went to the gym during the week, and irrespective of how clean the food was that I shoved down my gullet, the only shape I managed to achieve was round.

I think the issue might be that I’m not getting enough protein. I mean just have a look at the characters in this next game – Hell’Sing slot from Mascot – they’re shredded, bro!

Gameplay

Cue ominous music and some wonderful graphic novel-type images across 5 reels and the scene is set for a game that’s a little out of the ordinary.

While the title intimates that it’s all about vampires – Dr. Abraham Van Helsing was a character in Bram Stoker’s Dracula after all – you’ll also find some werewolves lurking about for some added drama.

I quite like how Mascot Gaming has opted not to add a background as this makes the grid, and its characters, your focal point.

If you thought that would make this game a winner for portrait-style mobile play, well you’d be dead wrong. The grid is tiny and overshadowed by the buttons and controls – especially the teal-colored SPIN button.

Things look a lot better when you flip the phone, as the reels take up almost all the real estate. So yeah, playing this game in landscape mode is totally doable.

Now comes the bad news. The RTP is just below the level that I’d like to see – coming in at 95.30% – and as for the max win, well that’s the pain in the neck right there. The most you can hope to score in this game is €4,500.

What might be of some comfort to certain players is the low volatility. In other words, you’ll have to settle for regular, low-paying wins rather than a noteworthy max win.

Features

The WILD symbol is our dapper doctor Van Helsing. He replaces all symbols other than the Vampire’s Sign and Werewolf’s Sign symbols, which are the Scatters. You can get 15 Free Spins in exchange for 3, 4, or 5 of either Scatter.

VAMPIRE HUNT FREE SPINS
While this feature is doing its thing, you’ll see a random bunch of vampire symbols added to the reels. All of these will expand to take over the symbols that they occupy.

So here’s the thing, right – the expanding symbols are a bit disturbing! They’re a naked and ripped creature that mercifully has his junk hidden, but it’s like a train wreck – you can’t stop looking at it! I feel dirty now.

WEREWOLF HUNT FREE SPINS
The werewolf symbol becomes a special symbol during this round. He’s not as ripped – or as porno – as the vampire symbol but I guess it's because he’s not on a liquid diet.

The werewolf symbols will expand on the reels when they land, and they’ll also pay out on non-adjacent positions.

The last thing to note here is that you can retrigger the spins for even more goodness during both the Werewolf and Vampire Free Spins.

RISK ‘N’ BUY
This feature will come about after each spin, irrespective of whether you land a win or not. You can score anything from 10 to 15 Free Spins by either risking your current win or buying your way to glory.

Performance

Hell’Sing slot played fangtastically well. It didn’t matter which device or browser I was using – the results were always flawless.

Maximum Win

The top prize isn’t the biggest chunk of change in the world, as it tops out at only €4,500.

Conclusion

Let’s be honest, there’s not much going for this game. The RTP is sub-par, the max win is anemic, and the only features it sports are Free Spins. That’s not exactly a recipe for awe and wonder.

I’d venture to say that it could be attractive to some, due to its low volatility, but many other games offer this and more.
