How To Play The Jekyll And Hyde Slot
Playing the slot couldn’t be any easier. Once you’ve got it up on your screen, all you have to do is choose a total bet value. This is a multiple of twenty-five, which is how many paylines the slot has. The options start at 0.25 and go up to 60.00. When you’re happy with your bet, hit the ‘SPIN’ button to start playing. Go for the ‘AUTOPLAY’ button if you want the slot to spin the reels for you. Choose a number (10, 25, 50 or 99) and the reels will then be spun this number of times.


Jekyll And Hyde Slot Features

• Jekyll And Hyde Theme. The slot is heavily inspired by Robert Louis Stevenson’s novel The Strange Case Of Dr Jekyll And Mr Hyde, which was released in 1886. It tells the story of a London lawyer who investigates a number of strange goings-on between an old friend, Dr Jekyll and the evil Edward Hyde. It turns out the two are the same person: Dr Jekyll uses advanced science to ‘transform’ himself into his alter-ego, Edward Hyde. The slot is very atmospheric and creepy. It’s set against a brick wall with green smoke rising up on either side of it. The special features are specially designed to fit the theme, which is great to see.
   
• Twenty-Five Paylines. The slot uses a three-row, five-reel grid with twenty-five paylines active on all spins. To win, three or more instances of the same symbol have to land on a payline, with the first symbol on reel 1 and the other symbols on adjacent reels.
   
• Symbols. There are fifteen low-paying symbols: these are five card ranks, each of which has three different appearances. The five high-paying symbols are an open notebook, a top hat and cane, a blonde assistant, a brunette assistant and Dr Jekyll. The most valuable of these is Dr Jekyll, who rewards you with a prize equal to 1,000x your line bet for landing five on one of the slot’s paylines.
   
• Bonus Symbols. The slot has several bonus symbols. There are two potion bottle scatters - one containing a bright green potion and one with a red potion. The green one is the standard scatter, while the red one is the powered-up scatter. There’s also the Mr Hyde wild, which appears on reels 2, 3 and 4 and can expand to fill the reel it’s on if this helps create a win.
   

Jekyll And Hyde Bonus Features

• Free Spins. To trigger the slot’s free spins round, you need three potion bottle scatters to land. The slot has a Feature Bet mode that doubles your bet. When this mode is active, potion bottle symbols are powered up and turn red. These powered-up scatters can help you trigger the free spins round even if they land one space off the grid. Choose one of two free spins rounds:
  • Jekyll Spins. Every scatter on reel 5 increases the value of the multiplier wilds that can appear. The multiplier values can get as high as x5.
  • Hyde Spins. Every scatter on reel 5 turns one of the slot’s high-paying character symbols into a wild.

For both options you keep on getting free spins until four potion bottle scatters have landed on the fifth reel. Once this has happened, the free spins round comes to an end.
