ASSASSIN MOON SLOT REVIEW
Triple Edge Studios decided to take the James Bond route with the Assassin Moon slot.
In fact, Agent Luna gives Mr Bond a run for his money in the same lush setting as the Brit usually operates in. More on that later, but for now, let's have a look at the general details of this online slot.
The Assassin Moon slot is a high-volatility game featuring the standard five-by-three grid and 25 paylines. The RTP (Return to Player) stands at 94.08% but it changes depending on the game stage.
DISCOVER THE ASSASSIN MOON SLOT
As with most movies and novels of this genre, the Assassin Moon slot is set in a glamorous private villa where some neat landscaping meets true architectural beauty.
The layout of the online slot is equally neat. On the left, players can find the max. win (12,500x) as well as the Win Booster, which will be covered at a later stage.
Assassin Moon includes quite a number of bonus features to make the gameplay interesting without rendering it too complex.
The four in-game jackpots are just the icing on the cake as far as win potential goes.
PLACE YOUR BETS
Before hitting the spin button, players must adjust their bet size. The minimum bet in the Assassin Moon slot is €0.10, while the maximum bet is €20.
Should players wish to speed things up and avoid clicking through every single spin, they can use the Autoplay function.
Players could choose how many times the slot can be spun (10x, 25x, 50x and 100x) but they can stop the spins at any time.
We strongly recommend players establish a gaming budget and a win and loss limit to avoid excessive money loss. Gaming must only be done in a responsible manner, so when the fun stops, stop playing.
SYMBOLS
Like many online slots, Assassin Moon includes numerous symbols that contribute to players' wins differently.
The game features Jack through ace, two dice, a drink with playing cards, a Monte Carlo-esque car and a man with an eyepatch.
The Wild symbol is represented by Luna and the Scatter takes the form of a coin with 'free spins' emblazoned.
Finally, the Link&Win™ symbol, which simply depicts a moon, is integral to unlocking one of the Assassin Moon bonus features.
SPECIAL FEATURES
There's much to evaluate in an Assassin Moon review owing to its multiple features. Consult this section to discover how each feature is unlocked and functions.
WIN BOOSTER FEATURE
Unlocking the Win Booster feature is entirely optional. Triggering this feature can be done by hitting the Win Booster button at the left of the grid.
In doing so, the stake increases to 2.5x but so does the number of moon symbols.
Consequently, the probability of unlocking the Hyperhold feature also increases, allowing players easier access to that feature (mentioned later on). The Assassin Moon RTP also hikes up to 96.33%
FREE SPINS FEATURE
A Free Spins feature has almost become a necessity in today's online slots market, and the Assassin Moon slot isn't lacking in this regard.
To unlock this feature, players must land at least three Scatter symbols on reels two, three and four.
In doing so, players will be granted 10 free spins. During the Free Spins bonus game, the middle reels combine to form three-by-three Jumbo blocks.
A Jumbo block equates to nine individual symbols, greatly helping players land a winning combination.
Landing more Scatter symbols during the Free Spins round will grant 10 more free spins and 1x total bet.
HYPERHOLD FEATURE
Landing at least six moon symbols will unlock the HyperHold bonus feature.
Upon doing so, the six symbols stick to their position while the others disappear. Three spins are then awarded, resetting upon landing another moon symbol.
All HyperHold moon symbols have a value between 1.5x to 20x but they could also equate to the Mini, Minor or Major jackpots.
The two ways this feature could end is either when the spins finish or if the special symbols take up all of the grid.
If the latter happens, the Mega jackpot will be awarded, which is a fixed jackpot that grantis players 5,000x their bet.
ASSASSIN MOON DEMO PLAY
Before trying your hand at the Assassin Moon online slot, it would be a wise idea to free-play it first.
You can play free games thanks to the demo version — an identical copy of the base game that grants you a virtual balance to spend on some educational spins.
This means that you could bet on the Assassin Moon slot without having to place a qualifying deposit. The size of your virtual balance is predetermined by Triple Edge Studios, but in the unlikely event that it runs out, you could simply reload the game and try spinning the reels again.
However, keep in mind that any winning combinations you land cannot be withdrawn into a real cash prize.
Whether you win the top prize or any of the four jackpots, you won't be able to withdraw any winnings. To do that, you'll have to play the Assassin Moon slot for real by placing a deposit.
Do note that there might be registration required before access to the demos can be granted at LV BET. Once you're signed up, all you have to do is sign/log in to your account, load up an online casino like LV BET and search for the slot game you would like to try.
Once the game's interface pops up, simply toggle the slider to 'Demo mode'. In cases where verification is not necessary, you may be able to play as a visitor.
Whenever you feel ready to try the Assassin Moon slot out with real money, simply toggle the slider to get started.
Our online casino is licensed and regulated by the Malta Gaming Authority (MGA), which guarantees that your online gambling experience at our casino will be as safe as possible.
THE VERDICT
With an uncanny resemblance to Pragmatic Play's Wolf Gold, Assassin Moon delivers on all fronts: high-quality graphics, great entertainment and solid win potential.
The espionage theme is easy to get wrong, but a few simple features managed to get Assassin Moon over the line in our books.
Where the Assassin Moon slot falls short is its Mega jackpot potential, which only stands at 5,000x. When considering the sheer rarity of this jackpot dropping, 5,000x doesn't seem to suffice.
Overall, we believe that Triple Edge Studios did a splendid job with Assassin Moon and that it offers a potentially rewarding gaming experience.
