Springbok Casino: October Feature Offers Free Spins on Alien Wins

The leading South African online casino is giving away 25 free spins to all players on Alien Wins slot until October 31st, for an out-of-this-world month.
Halloween Invasion: The Alien Animals Hiding in South Africa
“I invite you to explore the October feature story, where delightful South African animals are revealed as mischievous extraterrestrials with grand schemes for world domination. From the powerful elephants of Zorthon to the crafty baboons of Blorvax, discover the hidden motives behind their charming antics, as each movement may signal an impending intergalactic invasion. Join us in uncovering their secret identities and plans while you spin the reels on Alien Wins!” Daniel Van Wyke, Springbok Casino Manager, said.
Alien Elephants (Trunkalonis Colossus) are on a mission to transform Earth into a new ‘Zorthon’. They use their trunks as suction devices to survey and plan the drainage of Earth’s water supplies and replace it with liquid helium. Their trunks serve as antennas, intercepting human communications.
Baboons from ‘Blorvax’. When cheeky South African baboons create chaos and pranks, they’re actually running invasion drills to gauge human weaknesses.
Killer Penguins of Bolders Beach (Glacionoids) have taken on the form of South Africa’s adorable African penguins. But don’t be fooled by their waddle; these aliens are anything but harmless. They’re using their cuteness as a weapon to distract beachgoers while they plant mind-control devices.
The feature also covers: the Sinister spying Squirrels, the Watchful Warrior Meerkats of Mirkron, Saturnian Leapers disguised as Springboks, The Rigoronian Titans as robust Rhinos, Woxarian Packlords, disguised as South Africa’s Wild Dogs, Zebras of Zorgon: the Hipnotic Hoofers, and the Hippos of Hydraxis: The Water War Generals.
