Creepy Cuddlers Slot

Creepy Cuddlers Slot Machine

It’s not often we come across an online game that combines cuddly elements with a touch of the macabre, but that’s exactly what SimplePlay has achieved with this slot machine. While we wouldn’t necessarily call it a groundbreaking achievement, the ability of this brand to create a semi-adorable yet eerie theme is enough to pique our interest.

Before you jump to conclusions about the word ‘cute’ being used, keep in mind we inserted ‘semi’ in front of it. We don’t expect you to swoon with delight while spinning the 5 reels of this slot game; rather, we believe you’ll find it less terrifying than most. This, in turn, means that players who are usually put off by horror themes might now (hopefully) feel more at ease with the gameplay.

Off to the Farm with You

If our comment about the game not being too scary hasn’t reassured you, you can always explore the reels of Funny Farm, another title by SimplePlay. In this game, you’ll find the same gameplay mechanics, including free games and a low to medium level of volatility. Essentially, it’s the same game with a different theme, a fact that some players will either love or hate. For us, we appreciate being able to play similar games to those we enjoy, so if Creepy Cuddlers is your cup of tea, you might also enjoy other SA titles.

Ways of Terror

The paytable of Creepy Cuddlers is on the larger side, offering players a total of 14 different symbols to play with. While this is commendable, it’s not as thrilling as having 243 ways to win, which is what this game provides.

We understand that this feature is not groundbreaking and that many slots are moving away from traditional paylines. However, the freedom to explore the eerie night streets is enough to get you excited. Landing a five-of-a-kind combination should theoretically be easier here than with 50 fixed lines. But as we all know, slots can be unpredictable.

Danger Zone

We’ve all seen our fair share of zombie movies – an epidemic breaks out, leaving most people dead. Warning signs are posted around cities, cautioning individuals about entering contaminated zones at their own risk. In this game, that warning sign is your scatter symbol.

The scatter icon resembles a caution sign, but ignoring it means missing out on scattered payouts and free spins. You can’t avoid these symbols, and landing a five-of-a-kind win will reward you with 30 times your bet and trigger several rounds of free spins. Even just three scatter symbols can activate the bonus games.

Pick Your Zombie

It’s not every day you’re asked to pick a zombie, and if you are, we might have concerns about your well-being. In Creepy Cuddlers, before the free games begin, you must choose one of three options, each offering different benefits.

• Zombie 1: Choose this to have reel 2 as a wild for 6 spins.
• Zombie 2: Opt for reel 3 as the wild with 9 extra spins.
• Zombie 3: Select this option for the entire fourth reel to transform into a wild with up to 12 free games.

Although we reviewed this game, we can’t explain why there’s a discrepancy in the number of spins based on the chosen wild reel. We didn’t get to activate this feature, so we can only speculate. It’s disappointing because this special feature could add significant value if we could access it.

Cuddles for All

We must acknowledge that while SimplePlay hasn’t hit it out of the park, they’ve created a slot machine that offers a fair amount of enjoyment. However, the game could have been enhanced with more refined features and a more diverse paytable. This is not a low-variance real money slot, but it may lack the variety some players seek.
