How To Play Blood & Shadow Mobile Slot
The Blood & Shadow slot by NoLimit City lets you walk into an abandoned cathedral where you are likely to be cursed or pleased by the devil.
Blood & Shadow is a 5×4 1024 ways-to-win slot machine with avalanching wins collected at the reels’ bottom. The more you collect, the higher the levels, the fewer low-paying symbols you’ll find on the reels and the richer the wins.
It’s a simple concept that could see you win up to 6666x your bet, especially if you hit the free spins and find the xSplit symbol. This symbol will split the reels and give you up to 3125 ways to win.
It’s a popular feature by NoLimit City studios, from the xWays Hoarder xSplit slot to the recent Benji Killed in Vegas review. And it’s popular because it allows you to have lots of wins in a very quick series of spins.
Is the Blood & Shadow slot game any good?
That depends on how familiar you are with NoLimit City games. In many ways, this Blood & Shadow mobile slot is a simpler machine than many of the ones that have come before.
You play, and every win is collected per round. The more wins you collect, the richer the reels get. The richer the reels, the higher the level, and the more chances you have to catch the free spins or super free spins.
Normal free spins turn 3 of the low-paying symbols into one high-paying symbol. The Super free spins remove all low-paying symbols and leave only the high-paying witches and monsters on the reels.
Win 6,666x your bet on the Blood & Shadow slot
The best version of this Blood and Shadow slot machine has an RTP of 96.13% with a wide betting range of 0.20 to 200 a spin.
Use the betting range wisely, as you’ll need a fair amount of spins to hit the Candle Free spins – never mind the Cursed Free spins.
And forget buying them – the Cursed free spins cost 500x your bet, which is more than most Buy Options. You might need to stick with your budget and patience to hit those bonus spins with sticky wilds and xSplit symbols.
If you don’t have either, maybe go with something a little easier on the wallet, like the Walk of Shame slot also by No Limit City.
