Testament Slot Review (Play’n GO)

13.03.2020, 18:47

For 30+ years, the Legendary Bay Area Thrash quintet Testament has consistently delivered unadulterated & unbridled cacophony in its purest form with notable albums such as Demonic, The New Order, and The Legacy. Most recently, they have teamed up with the iGaming industry giant Play’n Go to release a video slot that entertains punters with hits from their critically praised 2012 album Dark Roots of the Earth as they toil on a slot mechanic that promises to shell out up to 20000 times their stake!

Rules & Gameplay

Despite always managing to outdo themselves every time they decide to collaborate with a famed band, the creators at Play’n Go seem to copy the layout of the controls from one slot to the next. As usual, expect to see a slot info button at the bottom left corner, a linear bet selector at the middle, and a spin & auto-spins button at the bottom right corner. After using the bet selector to set a bet ranging from €0.10-100, its time to hit the spin or auto-spins button and prepare to focus on what’s inside the grid- just like the slot geniuses at Play’n Go.

Thrashers like Dark Roots of Earth, Cold Embrace, and Throne of Thorns are a major highlight of the Testament Slot as they inspire every aspect of the gameplay from the soundtrack to the symbols on the paytable. On the latter, for instance, you can easily point out the vampire girl from the song Cold Embrace and various poses of a beast, we presume- the one that sits on the Throne of Thorns.

Appearances aside and on to the mechanics, Testament is a high volatility slot with a low Return to Player percentage of 94.2%. This might sound harsh but the slot packs a flurry of features that guarantee a win in virtually every spin.

Wilds and Transforming Skulls

An eerie creature with a tongue as big as its horns is the games wild and also the premier icon in the paytable, offering up to 15X for 3-5 appearances. With its substituting powers, it can replace help you complete winning combinations involving the regular symbols.

Even more thrilling, the skull symbols on the paytable can magically come back to life upon landing and turn into the fearsome wilds. While this will only happen randomly during normal play, it will happen in every spin during the bonus round (discussed later).

Song Features

Land 2 scatters to trigger 3 free spins featuring one of the following song features:

Free Spins Round: Rise Up & Testament Features

The cover art of the Dark Roots of Earth Album is the game’s scatter. Land at least 3 of these anywhere on the grid to gain entry into a 9 Rise Up Free Spins Screen, which is similar to the one in the Throne of Thorns feature, only that it has blockers on some of the ways. These blockers can, however, be broken by landing scatters on the corresponding reels.

If you manage to break all the blockers before the 9 free spins run out, you will be awarded 3 additional free spins. These, together with any remaining Rise Up free rounds, will play on the maxed-out Testament Screen where all the Song Features will be active to help you win more.

Also important to mention, landing 3 & 4 scatters on the triggering spin will pay out an instant 5 & 20 times the bet respectively.

Final Word

Some slots have good graphics, others have first-rate gameplay, but the Testament Slot brags both of these characteristics. Everything looks quite realistic and runs smoothly on all platforms, while the prospect of increasing the win ways from an already impressive 243 to a whopping 2400 gives you all the more reason to stick around, headbanger or not.
