Blood Bank Introduction
Dracula's Blood Bank is a spooky online pokie from 1x2 Gaming that is available to play on both browsers and mobile or tablet devices. Despite the darkness and blood, this is very much a light-hearted and irreverent take on the Dracula mythos, complete with a host of animated characters and bad vampire puns.
This game features a wide range of normal prizes plus a number of special features. Overall, the style is surprisingly bright and cartoony, with Dracula et al. rendered as colourful ghouls. Little animations such as twitches, blinks and foot tapping really help underline the cartoon aesthetic.
The graphics are of a good quality, which makes it easy to keep track of key information and easy on the eye, and the general game mechanics and layout should be familiar to anyone who has played a number of our other free online pokies.
Layout
This game has five reels in a 3x5 format and up to nine paylines for you to select. Prizes are awarded to lucky players for successful two, three, four and five-of-a-kind symbol matches on active paylines. In addition to regular prizes, there are also free spins, special wins, a doubler and a special substitute symbol for even more chances to win.
There are a total of 12 symbols in this game: ten regular symbols that award prizes and two types of special symbol - free spins and wilds.
Prize Table
The prize table contains ten regular symbols consisting of four higher-value and six lower-value ones. These award prizes for symbol matches of two to five and three to five respectively. The most valuable of the higher-value symbols is the count himself, which awards a generous top prize of 400 coins for finding five in a winning configuration.
Next up is the female vampire, which awards slightly smaller maximum prizes of 350 coins. At the other end of the scale is the coffin symbol, the least valuable of the lower-value symbols, which is only worth a total of 20 coins. However, with bonus functionality such as free spins and a doubler, even these smaller prizes can soon add up to bigger and bigger wins.
Bonus Features
Aside from regular prize-winning symbol matches, it is also possible to get a super valuable special win. Any lucky player who happens to find all four of the undead character (higher-value) symbols on an active payline at the same time will win a massive prize of 150x.
The first of the special symbols is the free spin icon, which awards a variable number of free spins for instances of three or more symbols appearing in any configuration, regardless of active paylines, on the reels. Finding five symbols will award the maximum number of 15 free spins. In addition, all prizes won during free spins mode are doubled.
The wild bat is the second of the special symbols. This is a substitute, meaning that it can be used instead of any other symbol except for free spins as part of a winning combination.
