KISS: Shout it Out Loud Introduction
KISS: Shout it Out Loud is an online pokie from WMS that is based on the classic glam metal band. With expanded symbols, a heavy soundtrack and a free spins round that can offer a multiplier worth up to 20x, it is certainly no wonder why KISS: Shout it Loud has become such a hugely popular game in land-based, online and mobile casinos.
Theme
This online pokie is based on the band KISS, which was well-known in the 1970s for their outlandish stage outfits and facepaint. The band used all sorts of exciting special effects in their shows, including breathing fire, spitting blood and shooting rockets. When designing this online pokie, WMS ensured that he same excitement would be conveyed in the gameplay.
As players spin the reels, a heavy metal tune plays and the reels light up with pyrotechnics. When players are close to hitting a big win, a crowd chants ‘KISS’ which further enhances the excitement and really makes you feel like you’re at a gig. If you’re a fan of the band, then you’ll really enjoy this title. The soundtrack features some of KISS’s most popular songs: Detroit Rock City, Rock and Roll All Night and Shout it Loud.
Format
KISS: Shout It Loud features a very unique format with a regular set of reels and an expanded set of reels on the side. This is so the game can fit 100 paylines to provide players with extremely generous winning potential. Both sets of reels feature stacked symbol to help boost the player’s chances of winning big.
This Colossal Reel set is a staple in WMS games. So, if you enjoy this format, you will want to try games like Towers of the Temple, Giant’s Gold and L’il Red. Players can choose to wager on any number of paylines (but it is recommended that they bet on all 100 to maximise their odds of winning). The game should appeal to players of a wide range of budgets, as bets between 1c and $5 per payline are accepted.
Expanded Symbols
Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley are the highest paying symbols in the game, and they appear in stacks. They occupy more than one vertical position on the reels to help boost the player's chances of hitting generous winning combinations each time they spin the reels. This is a great added feature, as it amps up the excitement during the base game of KISS: Shout It Loud.
Win Up to 20 Free Spins
When 3 or more scatter symbols appear on the reels, the player will enter the bonus round. There are three different outcomes:
- 3 scatter symbols trigger 8 free spins with a 2x multiplier
- 4 scatter symbols trigger 12 free spins with a 5x multiplier
- 5 scatter symbol trigger 20 free spins with a 20x multiplier
It is not often that you encounter a pokie that offers up a 20x multiplier, even in its bonus round. So, KISS certainly offers up one of the more generous free spins bonuses out there.
