Fear the Dark Slot Review

Spooky monsters roam free in the Fear the Dark slot by Hacksaw Gaming. This game offers a 6x6 layout with the cluster pays mechanic. The winning symbols always disappear, and symbols cascade to make way for the new symbols. The Moon Man triggers the Full Moon bonus where 2 to 5 symbol Multipliers of up to 100x are activated and then removed one by one when no wins occur.

This game awards 10 to 15 Free Spins where you have higher chances of landing the Moon Man symbol. After the Free Spins, you get 2 Darkness Spins, where the grid shrinks to 4x4 and then to 2x2. A Full Moon can reset Darkness Spins, or you can go back to regular Free Spins after landing a Scatter. Hacksaw Gaming offers various Bonus Buy options, but they are risky.

Fear the Dark video slot is perfect for those who want to play something less volatile and still very rewarding.
