NetEnt has decided to bring a frightening monster back to life with the Frankenstein video slot, in the same way doctor Frankenstein did in Mary Shelley’s original story. Frankenstein has five reels and 20 fixed paylines and is another example of collaboration between Universal Studios and NetEnt, like their Dracula and some other slots.

Frankenstein will surely stand the test of time, just like Mary Shelley’s novel did and still does, if we were only to judge from the spectacular animations and high-quality graphics that keep the game as enticing as the original story to this day.

Graphics & Theme

Frankenstein starts with a 3D animated sequence of two men robbing a grave in the dark of the night and taking the lifeless corpse to Frankenstein. This reminds of Dracula, another chilling and exciting title that was the product of a unique teamwork between Universal and NetEnt. The visuals are outstanding, bringing to life every character in the game.

The frightening background soundtrack is one of the more thrilling we have heard, and is responsible for creating a truly unique and horrifying atmosphere that permeates every single spin of the reels throughout the game, sending chills down your spin while playing.

Gameplay

Frankenstein introduces the Lightening Wild symbol, which will substitute for all other symbols except the Windmill Scatter, which activates the special bonus game.

The Lightening Wild will turn all adjacent symbols into Wilds when it lands on reels 2, 3 or 4 by electrifying its surroundings.

Frankenstein has a Free Spins feature, which is activated by landing three or more Scatter symbols anywhere on the reels during the base game. Players initially receive 10 free spins, while landing 2 or more scatters during the bonus will award with either 5 or 10 additional free spins. During the free spins bonus round, a multiplier can land on the reel 5 and multiply all wins up to 5x. As soon as you reach the 5x multiplier, it will vanish from the reels.

Frankenstein is ideal for fans of monster and horror movie-themed slots as well as outstanding games with endless hours of gameplay. It will, no doubt, provide a memorable and entertaining gaming experience for players of all shapes and sizes.
