Yggdrasil Gaming launches Pumpkin Smash
A great number of slot developers generally tend to release Halloween-themed slot machine games throughout October, in the run-up to the month’s main event – Halloween. However, so many of these developers produce games which are so Halloween-centric that they actually fall from the popularity scale and are scarcely played throughout the rest of the year – you know, until Halloween resurfaces the following year. Yggdrasil Gaming have tried to produce a Halloween-themed slot which will last with their latest effort, and we have to say, we’re rather impressed.
About the Slot
This week, Pumpkin Smash comes to online casinos. We know what you’re thinking – another ghoul and goblin-themed slot? Well, not really. Pumpkin Smash is more closely related to the Día de Muertos festival in Mexico (the Day of the Dead) rather than traditional Halloween festivities.
The new Pumpkin Smash slot offers up a basic 5-reel, 20-line gaming platform, and players are going to find that smashing pumpkins to pocket prizes isn’t just found in the Mexican Day of the Dead festival, but also in this game.
As well as that instant win feature, there are free spins to be won, with multipliers rise as high as 7x at certain times in the game, and cash prizes could be worth as much as 2,000 coins if you manage to play your cards right when spinning the reels of this slot’s bonus feature.
Pumpkin Smash is fanciful, it is creative, and it is an online glittery retelling of one of Mexico’s proudest and finest traditions. Yes, it has been released at Halloween, and that will surely draw in a crowd, but there is every chance that Pumpkin Smash has what it takes to prove itself a popular slot throughout the year, unlike many of its counterparts which were released this October.
