Many are the fans of steampunk, an alternative cultural genre which incorporates the elements of fantasy, science fiction, and even horror. All of them now have reason for joy as they’ll be able to see their favorite theme in the dark but electrifying release by Microgaming software developer – “Steam Punk Heroes”, which will take them to the depths of the alternative world and keep them tied to their computer chairs for a long, long time.
“Steam Punk Heroes” Main Characteristics
Aiming at bringing this interesting, fantastic genre to wider public, Microgaming has introduced its 5-reel, 25-payline online slot in powerful graphics and interesting sounds. The characters you’ll encounter on the reels include a gorgeous steampunk girl, different animals and poker symbols, all presented in rich, detailed graphics, which to some may seem a bit too detailed and dark, though, for such small icons. Apart from them, you’ll be able to benefit from generous wilds and scatters which trigger an interesting, theme-specific bonus round with free spins and multipliers.
In terms of the moneys you’ll need in order to give this tempting online slot a try, there’s just a few choices you should make before you can start spinning. Therefore, based on how much you want to spend, you should select your coin denomination, which can vary from 1 to 20 cents, a range that would not be big enough for more daring players if it were not for the option to place up to 10 coins per payline. In return, you can win a hefty jackpot as a reward for making a potentially small investment.
Special Features:
“Steam Punk Heroes” is a game of not too many special features, but that does not mean it’s terribly stingy – its payouts are not spectacular, but can occasionally be quite decent, particularly thanks to the features, which include:
A graphically interesting wild, which comes quite often on all reels, and creates additional winners which have one major benefit – the prize gets doubled when one or more wilds take part in a winning combination.
A scatter symbol which does not only pay any, but triggers a bonus round with free spins as well. Namely, when you get three or more of these anywhere on the reels, you’ll get transferred to a second screen with two gears. Each of the gears determines a part of the bonus – one is for multipliers and the other for the number of free spins. You’ll start the gears by pulling a handle and you should wait for them to stop in order to see your award. As a hefty amount of free spins and multipliers can be won here, this is definitely the feature worth waiting for.
Conclusion:
There’s definitely something about this game that will grab your attention. It has its tiny downsides, such as the aforementioned graphical details which cannot be perceived in their full glory, but even these are actually in line with the theme, which is dark, beautiful, fantastic and exciting at the same time. Considering that it does offer decent winning odds, “Steam Punk Heroes” has good prospects to become a successful title in this competitive industry.
