Lordi Reel Monsters Review
Mr Lordi and his brand of monsters are rising from the depths of hell to show you how to rock and roll! Developed by Play'n GO, Lordi Reel Monsters is based on the heavy rock metal band known famously for winning the Eurovision Song Contest in 2006 for 'Hard Rock Hallelujah'.
This branded slot plays on a grid of 7x7 and features Cluster Pays as the core gameplay. Each winning cluster builds up to lead to fill up the Monster Charge and can award free spins with wins reaching up to 4,000x your stake.
Design
Inspired by The House of Hammer Horror comics, all the characters in this slot are cell-shaded with a darker edge. This design choice fits the band perfectly and makes this slot a wonderful horror slot.
All the band members are featured in this slot including Amen, Mana, Hiisi, Hella and Mr Lordi - but they all look a little darker like they have actually been living in hell. The entire slot is set in a cemetery and is exactly what you'd expect.
As the game opens up, there is an amazing cinematic opening up the slot with the gang coming out of a crypt. This just enhances the atmosphere and experience of this slot even more.
Of course, there is a heavy metal rock score playing in the distance with Lordi's songs and it's absolutely incredible. There is literally no other slot that rocks as heavy as this!
Gameplay
If you have played any sort of grid slot, then you'll be familiar with this one. There are no paylines and players must instead form clusters to lead to wins and the other features.
At the bottom of the screen, there is the spin button followed by the bet level. Interestingly, all of the bar is designed to match the gothic tone with a hand creeping up.
Win Potential
Lordi Reel Monsters is fantastic in terms of gameplay and design - but what about win potential? The RTP for this slot is pretty standard at 96.20% and there is a medium volatility level leading to a mixture of high and low volatility wins.
Sadly, the maximum win for this slot is 4,000x your stake which is quite mediocre for an online slot as we'd expect this to at least be closer to 10,000x your stake.
Our Verdict
Almost everything about Lordi Reel Monsters is absolutely incredible! The overall design and aesthetic are perfect for creating a dark and twisted world. This paired with the fantastic gameplay and the branding of Lordi makes this slot unmissable.
Our only issue with the slot is the low maximum win, but it's not a complete deal-breaker. If you love dark and twisted slots with cluster wins, then be sure to give Lordi Reel Monsters a spin.
