I’ll happily admit that before playing the Black Mamba pokie, I was expecting it to be based around one of the most venomous, and therefore deadly, creatures in the entire world. This would have made sense, as there are many other slot games based on animals, so surely this one would be too, right?Wrong. In fact, what Play ‘N Go have actually given us is a pokie based on a Italian band called Black Mamba. A surprise yes, but a nice one, as like all of Play ‘N Go’s previous slots, a lot of care has gone into the production and design, with a great background, characters and reels.
In this Black Mamba slot game review, we’ll hope to inform players how the game is played, what the return to player rate is, and if there have been any fun bonus features included.
Gameplay
The Black Mamba pokie has five reels and five rows. Players will need to select the number and size of their coins before setting off, and there is also an autoplay feature, if you aren’t a fan of having to click spin each time.
There aren’t any of the standard card symbols, so the lower value ones are instead all band related, with the microphone, headphones, plectrum and cymbals being worth between X0.10 and X1.5 of your original bet, depending if you match them three, four or five times on the reels.
So it is the band members who are worth more. All of Alexandra, Cecilia and Fred are worth X0.30 when landed three times, X1 when landed four times, and X5 when matched on all five of the reels. This doesn’t seem like a lot compared to other slots, but you can achieve wins on either horizontally or vertically, so you can land multiple bigger wins with each spin.
Black Mamba Free Play
If you are still a bit unsure with pokies, and you don’t quite feel ready to play with your own money, then the Black Mamba free play edition of the slot is a good idea, so you can get some practice in before trying out the main game.
Black Mamba Slots Feature Bonuses
It would not be a great Black Mamba slot game review without getting to the feature bonuses, and thankfully Play ‘N Go have included several here. There are two Wilds, with the band logo being worth more, (X25 for five) and will stick to the reels.
Each of the band members has their own feature. Some of the bonuses they offer are multipliers, extra Wilds and the ability to transform the symbols if winning combinations aren’t made.
If you clear the grid of symbols, you’ll be awarded with eight free spins, as well as a multiplier. This is a good chance to earn some great winnings.
RTP
The RTP for the Black Mamba pokie is 96.5%
So there we have it. We really enjoyed this slot game. It is the multiple Black Mamba slots feature bonuses that really make the game stand out, and we feel they will keep players coming back time and time again.
