Bloody Murder

By Zena Grantham | Updated 17 October 2025

Bloody Murder is a video slot developed by Red Tiger Gaming, released on 16 October 2025. Bloody Murder immerses players in the foggy streets of Victorian London, drawing inspiration from the notorious serial killer Jack the Ripper. The mood is dark and atmospheric, featuring gaslit alleyways, blood-spattered symbols, and the looming presence of a mysterious killer that sets the tone of what lies ahead.

The game plays on a 5×3 grid with 20 fixed paylines. Bloody Murder is available on desktop and mobile devices from 10p to £50 per spin. The slot is highly volatile with a below-average RTP of 95.76 % and an impressive max win of 16,400x the bet.

Design

Bloody Murder takes players back to the gas-lit backstreets of Victorian London. The setting is steeped in fog, rain, and unease – a world inspired by the notorious Jack the Ripper. The reels sit against a shadowy alleyway lined with flickering lamps and faded crime posters, each detail soaked in tension and atmosphere.

The soundtrack reflects the mood with the distant sound of rain, echoing footsteps, and violin notes that increase in intensity when wins land.

To land a win, you’ll need at least three matching symbols across one of the 20 paylines from left to right, beginning on the first reel. The slot is compatible with desktop and mobile devices, maintaining the same sharp visuals and smooth gameplay as the desktop version.

Symbols

The low-value symbols are represented by the 10, J, Q, K, and A card suits. Five of a kind awards between 3x and 5x. The high-value symbols are a purse, a pair of blood-stained gloves, a crimson fan, and a high-heeled shoe. Five matching symbols award between 15x and 100x. There’s no Wild in the game, but a Scatter is available to trigger the free spins round.

Bloody Murder Features

In terms of features, Bloody Murder focuses on quality over quantity. There’s a Cash Collect mechanic with multipliers, a Free Spins round and a Bonus Buy option for non-UK players. It’s not overloaded with features, but when they align, the numbers stack up fast.

Victim Symbol

Victim symbols appear on reels 2, 3, and 4, each displaying a cash prize as a multiplier based on the current bet. Multiplier values range between 0.5x, 1x, 1.5x, 2x, 3x, 5x, 10x, 15x, 25x, 50x, and 100x.

Ripper Symbol

The Ripper symbol appears exclusively on the 5th reel. When a Ripper symbol lands alongside a Victim symbol, their multiplier values are combined and awarded.

Bloody Letter Symbol

The Bloody Letter symbol appears on the 1st reel. It appears with a random multiplier value of 2x, 3x, 5x, 7x, 10x, 15x, 25x, 50x, or 100x. When it lands with a Victim and Ripper symbol, the multiplier is applied to the combined total collected by the Ripper symbol.

Free Spins

Landing a Scatter symbol on reels one, three, and five awards eight Free Spins. Each extra Scatter that lands during the feature awards 3 extra spins. When the round begins, the Ripper remains sticky in the centre position of the 5^th reel for the remainder of the feature.

Buy-In Options

There are a couple of Feature Buy options (not available to UK players):

⭐ Ripper Feature Buy: 12× the bet awards a Ripper symbol with at least one Victim symbol (i.e. triggers the Cash Collect)

⭐ Free Spins Buy: 75× the bet triggers the free spins feature, awarding 8 free spins with the Ripper symbol on reel 5.

Verdict

Blood Murder transforms one of London’s most notorious serial killers into a high-stakes thriller. It is every bit as sinister as its title suggests. Red Tiger has built something that’s more about timing and progression than endless features. However, when Victim, Ripper, and Bloody Letter symbols align, it becomes explosive.

Visually, it nails the atmosphere with rain-soaked alleys, an eerie soundtrack, and blood-stained detail. The Cash Collect feature delivers steady bursts of action. Additionally, Free Spins with the sticky Ripper symbol give you a chance to win the big prize. The Feature Buy (not available in the UK) is available for those who prefer to skip the base game drag.

The downside? The base game can be flat at times. The high volatility, therefore, requires patience; however, Bloody Murder rewards both nerve and persistence equally. Moreover, if you enjoy dark, intense slot games that can deliver significant impact when everything aligns, then this one is certainly worth exploring.
