Creepy Castle

Simple to set up

Creepy Castle from Chance Interactive is played against a backdrop peppered with enough detail to add interest and some extra touches that really reflect the overall theme yet remain simple enough to make it easy for even novice pokie players to play independently from the start. The main icons needed to set up and play are neatly arranged around the 5 x 3 board, depicted on shapes dripping a good amount of either gunk or slime. There are 25 paylines in total, and players are free to choose between 1 and 25 each spin. Simply clicking the relevant icon reveals a plus/minus button for adjustments.

Meet the characters

Ballie, Bato, Tally and Squid are the key players - the “monsters of importance”, if you like - but they have an equally interesting support cast in the form of the creepy castle (Scatter) and the usual number 10 and A to K playing card letters. The latter are unusual as the designer have, unusually for pokies like this, given them mini-monster features in their own right. The result is a charming and comical set of letters with single eyes and sharp teeth.

Monster up your winnings

Creepy Castle is a generous pokie, with regular payouts for matching several icons being complemented by the possibility of much bigger rewards on the Creepy Spins feature. This is triggered when at least three of the castle scatters appear on the reels at the same time. Regular play is suspended while the player chooses doors to reveal monsters, which then turn wild. There is no need to fear because wild is good in this case, and these free spins are often extremely lucrative payers.

Spinning five matches of the regular icons rewards players with anywhere from 20 to 150 for the number/letter cards, with five monsters paying anywhere from 200 to 375. However, the most lucrative non-free spins combination involves the wild, wherein five promises a 500-coin payout. Even small wins get the full-blown celebratory treatment, with flashing scores and icons galore. This is a nice way of recognizing winners regardless of the actual total gained.

Three ways to wander around Creepy Castle

This charming pokie is a pleasure to play, whether you choose to use the desktop, mobile or tablet version. Either way, the graphics and overall experience are of equally high quality, and the game is compelling enough to make even a long commute or endless boring wait somewhere a pleasure. It is possible to play and win wherever you happen to be.

Make monsters that are as industrious, smart and friendly as these your new pals, and enjoy a pokie experience like no other.
