Theme

The Creature from the Black Lagoon is based on the black and white horror movie that was released in the 1950s. The 4 central characters all make an appearance on the reels, as does the creature himself. Everything from the front used for the title to the dramatic opening sequence stays true to the original source material, except this time we get to see it all in colour instead.

Special Symbols

Wild – Wild symbols will substitute for all symbols other than Free Spins. When it land it will trigger a respin, during which the Wild will remain in place. This process will continue as long as more Wild symbols land on the reels. If you land a Wild on the triggering spin of the Free Spins feature you will be given your respin after the Free Spins. There are other Wild symbols available during the Free Spins, but I will explain those in that section.

Free Spins – If you can land 3 or more of the Free Spins symbols anywhere on the reels then you will trigger the feature.

Bonus Features

Free Spins – If you can land 3 , 4 or 5 Scatter symbols then you will be awarded 10, 15 or 20 Free Spins respectively. In the Free Spins a Target symbol can appear at random on the 5th reel. When this happens you will shoot the Creature from the Black Lagoon and will lose one health. The more health it loses the more you move up through the levels, which are described below:

Level 1 – You begin on level 1, during which all Wilds act as sticky Wilds during a respin as they do in the base game.

Level 2 – You trigger level 2 once you have collected 3 target symbols. During this level when Wilds land on the reels they spread horizontally to the left for one additional respin.

Level 3 – You trigger level 3 once you have collected 6 target symbols. During this level when Wilds land on the reels they spread horizontally to the left and to the right for one additional respin.

Level 4 - You trigger level 4 once you have collected 9 target symbols. If this happens you will be given 10 additional Free Spins and your Wilds will continue to act as they did in level 3.
