Introduction
Based on the success of the hugely popular rock and heavy metal band, Twisted Sister is a 6x6 pokies from Play’n’Go that is based on two of their biggest hits… I Wanna Rock and We’re Not Gonna Take It. Battle the angry dads and enjoy some amazing themed bonus features, which we will look at in detail later in this pokies review.
Twisted Sister takes a slightly different approach to other Play'n GO pokies in that it does away with traditional paylines and instead pays cluster wins, so as long as you have at least 5 matching symbols touching on the reels, you’ll win a payout! There’s a funky Wild symbol in Twisted Sister, which can substitute for any symbols, excluding the Scatter, to help you win bigger and better prizes. This game also includes Cascading Wins. This feature means that any time a win is landed, the winning symbols will be removed and symbols will fall from above to fill the vacant spaces.
This continues until no new wins are formed and gives the chance to win some really impressive prizes. To the left of the reels, you’ll see a fabulous electric guitar. This guitar will fill every time you land winning combinations of band members. Whenever you reach a set charge point, one of the member’s bonus features will activate.
This could cause selected symbols to transform into Wilds or other symbols, or it could remove selected symbols from the reels.The angry dad meter is also found to the left of the reels and gives you the chance to trigger the We’re Not Gonna Take It / Angry Dads feature as well as increasing the available Multipliers. Again, we’ll look at this feature in more detail later in this review.
Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack
Based on the awesome '80s band, Twisted Sister is set on a white stage with large speakers blaring “I Wanna Rock” throughout the game (with the exception of the Angry Dads feature, when “We’re Not Gonna Take It” plays instead). The symbols include the band members along with plectrums and other rocking symbols to immerse you in the game.
