Alien Robots Slot

Alien Robots is a cute and cheery sci-fi slot, reminiscent of old-fashioned space-invaders-style arcade games. Its alien robot symbols are designed to be sweet and friendly rather than the scarier type of alien. The reels are set in outer space, with stars and planets in the background. This sci-fi slot’s animations are basic but amusing. There is not enough (other than the FREE SPINS round triggered by the SCATTER) to keep free spins players spinning for long, but real-cash players will be attracted by the STICKY WILDS (expanding wilds), and the 243 bet way feature, which is basically an interesting way NetEnt has come up with to offer maximum bets, which, if you win, can prove very lucrative indeed.

Symbols

All the symbols on the Alien Robots Slot display some animations when triggered in a payline (mostly moving their limbs or jumping up and down), but these are nothing to get too excited about. The special symbols are the WILD and SCATTER; the rest of the symbols are made up of the alien robots themselves and high-value playing cards from 10 to Ace. The symbol you most want to see coming up on the reels is the red robot: he’s worth a maximum of 10,000 coins for five symbols on an active payline. The lowest paying symbol is the blue robot: if you land two of him on an active payline you’ll be rewarded with just five coins.

Wagers and Jackpots

Alien Robots is a 5-reel, 30 payline sci-fi slot. (NetEnt calls its paylines “bet lines.”) This game also comes with a 243 BET WAYS feature (mentioned several times above). You can activate this feature by clicking on the green button to the right of the line bet button. When you do this, you enable no fewer than 243 possible winning combinations for each spin. This vastly increases your chances of a big win, but could also cause you a large loss if you’re unlucky (of course, this only applies if you play Alien Robots for real money). As mentioned above, the highest possible jackpot is 10,000 coins. The minimum is 5 coins. There is no progressive jackpot on this sci-fi slot.

Other ways to win

The other ways to win on the Alien Robots slot are by means of the STICKY WILD (it expands to cover an entire reel and sticks there, thereby increasing your chances of landing a winning combination of symbols including the WILD as a substitute symbol) and the FREE SPINS round (triggered by 3 or more SCATTER symbols landing on the reels). You get 10 FREE SPINS for 3 SCATTER symbols, 20 FREE SPINS for 4 SCATTER symbols, and a whopping 50 FREE SPINS for 5 SCATTER symbols. If 3 or more SCATTER symbols land on the reels again during the FREE SPINS round, further FREE SPINS will be awarded.

Music, audio and graphics

As we said above, the graphics and audio on this game are enjoyable but not particularly complex or intricate. Free spins players won’t need more than a couple of minutes to find out what this game’s all about. Players spinning for real money will enjoy Alien Robots for longer.
