It has been a very long time coming, and finally, the xenomorphs have landed at Net Entertainment casinos across the web. Net Entertainment’s Aliens video slot launched last week, to huge critical acclaim. Officially licensed by 20th Century Fox and based on the James Cameron’s 1986 hit sequel to the original Alien movie, this slot is simply epic.

Superb 3D graphics play just one part in the sensation that is the Aliens slot. If you’re looking for one of the most interesting bonus rounds every devised for the online gaming world, then you need look no further than Aliens.

Cheap as chips

Players can start playing Aliens for just 15p per spin, as it only contains 15 paylines spread over its 5 reels. Every time the player successfully wins a payline, a number of icons above the reels will become highlighted. When the bar reaches the end of the fifth reel (completely full), the bonus will be triggered. Should the player have a losing spin, the bar will decrease in portions, until the player wins again. It is actually not that difficult to trigger the bonus round.

Collect the coins

The bonus round begins with The Search. Players must collect icons on the paylines to win coins, and at the same time spin a weapons metre. You need bullets to defeat the aliens in the corridor. The more bullets you have, the further you get. Players can pick up amazing multipliers along the way. If they survive The Search, and make it all the way to the end of the first stage, they will enter The Encounter. Again, the task is to get to the end of the Alien Activity Metre without dying, by collecting bullets. If you do this, you’ll enter the final bonus stage, which is The Queen’s Hive. Here, players must defeat The Queen, to win the largest jackpot that the game offers.

Aliens is simply a fantastic video slot, totally faithful to the movies and console games and a jewel in the crown of this long-lasting franchise.
