Gremlins Introduction
Gremlins is a classic horror/black comedy film from 1984. It is about a young boy who receives a pet called a mogwai, which can spawn more mogwai who turn into gremlins – who are destructive reptilian creatures who cause mischief. The film is about the havoc that they wreak on town. It was a hugely popular movie, and spawned a sequel called Gremlins 2: The New Batch.
The Land-based game
In this WMS poker machine, the designers have done a great job in bringing Gremlins to life in a new way. The art style is quite cartoony with gremlins swinging from the reels and causing all sorts of mischief on the screen. The game features characters from the film, including Billy, Gizmo and more.
Bonus Features
One of the interesting features of the game is the option to pick from two different game modes:
Gizmo Mode:
- 35 credit minimum bet
- Multiplying wilds
- Jackpot prizes
Gremlins Mode:
- 150 credit minimum bet
- Higher payouts
- Mystery bonuses
- Progressive jackpot prizes
Here is an overview of some of bonus features available in the new Gremlins poker machine from WMS:
Multipliers: A gremlin will tear apart electrical wires and create a huge shock. As the shock electrifies the screen, the multiplier amount increases.
Added Wilds: The girl gremlin will appear at the top of the screen and blow kisses. As the kisses land on the screen, they will create additional wilds on the reels to help boost the player’s chances of winning a generous prize.
Free Spins: In the free spins round, players collect clock symbols. The more clocks the player collects, the further the hands on the clock spin. When the clock strikes midnight, extra wilds are added to the reels.
Progressive Jackpot: Throughout the game, you can collect progressive jackpot symbols. Eventually, they will either pay out credits or a progressive jackpot prize. There are five jackpot levels available: Mini, Minor, Major, Grand and Mega.
The design team at WMS have done a fantastic job with the design of this interesting and engaging new poker machine. Whether you’re a fan of the film or have never seen Gremlins before, you will certainly enjoy spinning the reels on the Gremlins poker machine from WMS.
