Bloodlines Introduction
If you have a vampiric thirst for free online pokies, then Bloodlines from Genesis Games might just be the pokie for you. Inspired by the vampire myths and legends of Eastern Europe from which our modern-day vampire fiction is derived, its dark themes will have you shuddering in front of the screen. Blood drips from the logo over the reels, while gothic music plays and the reels thump into place with an ominous, eerie sound.
Each time the symbols line up for a win, bats are disturbed and fly across the background, and the animations on each symbol add to the chilling theme. This 5 reel pokie has all the standard features - a wild, a scatter and a bonus game - together with a whopping 100 paylines to wager on.
Written in Blood
The letters of the Wild are spattered with blood, and it substitutes all the other symbols except, of course, the Bloodlines scatter. Emblazoned with an ornate 'B', three Bloodlines scatters in any position will trigger the vampire free spin bonus. Watch the lines of blood run between the reels as the whole screen seems to be bathed in a red glow, and the music changes in readiness for the bonus game.
During the 15 free spins awarded, any win will be multiplied by 3. The Wild symbol is replaced with a stacked Wild in the form of a vampire's coffin, giving more opportunities for wins. The bonus can be retriggered, too, earning you another deathly 15 free spins. And when it's over, the blood drains from between the reels and a terrifying shriek from the vampire's victim will take you back to the main game.
Pay Table
The top scoring symbol on the reels is the feeding vampire, taking a bite from the neck of his female victim. That will earn 1,000 credits for 5 of a kind, 500 credits for 4 shows and 50 for 3. The snarling vampire on his own will get you 500, 250 and 25 credits, while the chained damsel in distress will pay out 250, 150 and 25.
The man in the white suit - perhaps a vampire, perhaps her ill-fated lover - will yield 250, 100 and 20 credits. Perhaps we'll never know his secret. Interspersed with these chilling icons are those of the Ace, King, Queen, Jack, 10 and 9, each with its own set of payouts. The Ace has the best set of payouts of the set, giving 150, 75 and 15 credits for 5x, 4x and 3x.
The King will give 100, 75 and 15, the Queen 100, 50 and 15, and the Jack 100, 50 and 10 credits, while the 10 and 9 will pay out 75, 25 and 10, and 50, 25 and 10 credits respectively. The Bloodlines Scatter will get you 50, 10 and 5 credits for 5, 4 and 3 appearances, in addition to the triggering of the bonus game.
Available on mobile too, you can play Bloodlines anywhere you want. But beware, you might want to think twice about playing this pokie after dark!
