Yggdrasil and Bang Bang Games are “set to reveal their dark side” ahead of Halloween with the upcoming slot launch, Jekyllz Wild Ultranudge.
The 5x4, 40 payline slot includes an Ultranudge feature whereby any win featuring a wild, in the form of either Dr Jekyll or Mr Hyde, nudges down one position on the reels, increasing win potential and offering an additional chance to trigger the bonus feature on each winning spin. These nudges continue until no more wins are present.
The slot is also designed with a money collect style feature, Potion Cash. Random potions with a cash value of up to 50x can land on the reels and are collected if part of a winning combination with the Mr Hyde wild. Each Mr Hyde in view can increase its multiplier by 1x for every Ultranudge; with the total potion cash in view multiplied by that much at the end of the round.
Three bonus symbols will award the free spins, which see the Ultranudge streak triggered for any win in the round, regardless of whether a wild is present, while Mr Hyde multipliers can grow until it’s nudged out of view. Before entering the free spins, players can gamble to enter the round with a starting Mr Hyde multiplier value of 10x.
In certain jurisdictions, players can progress immediately to the bonus through the Buy Mode.
Stuart McCarthy, head of product and programs at Yggdrasil, said: “As Halloween creeps upon us, we thought it was the perfect time to launch the ever so devious Jekyllz Wild Ultranudge. Players will be keeping an eye out for the nefarious Mr Hyde, as he increases the multiplier in search of huge wins.”
Frank McPolin, managing director at Bang Bang Games said: “We always strive to bring innovation and excitement to our games, and that is evident through the addition of Ultranudge to our latest creation. It’s a game filled with win potential and plenty of fun, and we couldn’t wait to approach the classic Halloween titles with a different spin this year.”
