Spinomenal Reveals Apocalypse-Inspired Slot Book of 4 Horseman

Published

Reading Time: < 1 minute

 

Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has revealed its apocalypse-inspired title, Book of 4 Horsemen.

Spinomenal’s new game is set within a 5×3 framework, featuring ten paylines and brought to life by a dark and ominous soundtrack.

The scene is set by the medium symbols, each represented by the striking figures of the Four Horsemen: Conquest, War, Famine and Death. A burning 4 Horsemen book serves as the wild symbol, capable of substituting for any other symbol on the reels.

Hitting three or more scattered wilds in a spin triggers payouts: three symbols award 2x, four symbols award 25x and five symbols award 250x. Additionally, players who find three scattered wilds launch the free spins feature, granting players ten spins from the off. The bet per line from the main game carries over into the free spins feature.

Before leaping into free spins, players must face the wheel of fortune to determine the expanding symbol. This chosen symbol, excluding the scatter wild, will expand to form new paylines alongside existing ones from the base game. There is a chance to retrigger the feature, rewarding players with an additional ten free spins to extend gameplay. Once in free spins, the determined expanding symbol expands only when accompanied by a win.

“Despite the 4 Horsemen traditionally representing the apocalypse, this entertaining take on the fable offers players a chance for new horizons,” the Chief Commercial Officer for Spinomenal, Nir Ronen, said. “An epic soundtrack builds an intense ambiance as players look to conquer the reels for riches.”
