The Phantom Demo Slot - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Introduction 

The Phantom is a branded online slot from game designer Vibra Gaming. It has a 5x3 reel set which generates 25 fixed bet ways which pay left to right. Players benefit from a stacked wild in the shape of the horse, Hero, which substitutes for all other symbols, apart from the free spins Wolf, and the skull money symbols. 

Once free spins mode is entered, more free games can be won, and the games are played with a giant symbol on the centre reels. Meanwhile, six or more skull money symbols trigger 3 re-spins and lock. Prizes are added up at the end of the round. 

In all there are eight paying symbols, the main ones are the eponymous Phantom, Diana Palmer, Skull Ring and Revolvers. These are supplemented by four playing card symbols ranging from Ace to Jack.

Fans of this designer’s work will find many more Vibra Gaming online slots to play in demo mode here at Slots Temple. 

Theme, Graphics and Soundtrack 

The Phantom is based on the Lee Falk’s comic strip hero first published in 1936. Although the character has been adapted for the screen, and is still running, the graphics hark back to the original and feature the hero’s horse and pet wolf which appear as the wild and free spins symbols.

The reel set reflects the comic book heritage of the slot and is set against the background of a jungle with a giant skull outside the entrance to a cave, which we enter during the free spins mode of the game.

The soundtrack is a gloomy refrain suggesting danger ahead and is reminiscent of movies of the 1930s.

If you enjoy the retro slot theme you will find many more here in demo mode at Slots Temple, including the Batman and the Joker Jewels slot which has similar RTP and variance ratings to The Phantom.

The Phantom RTP and Variance 

The official RTP of this slot is 95% and it is medium variance with the game designer rating it’s volatility at 3/5, bang in the middle. Players will find winning lines form at a regular rate, but the special features of free spins and the skull cash prizes are harder to land.

The Phantom Bonus Features and Free Spins 

Six or more skull heads on the screen triggers the Money Re-spin Bonus with an initial three spins. These symbols lock in place, as does each further skull which appears, this also adds another three re-spins. When the feature ends the cash prices are totalled up. If the player fills the screen with the skull symbol a jackpot of x1000 is available.

The Phantom’s pet wolf is the free spins symbol, and rewards the player with 5 free games when they appear on reels 1, 3 and 5. During free spins a giant symbol appears on the centre reels, and free spins can re-trigger during this phase of the game.

The Phantom Review 

This is a great retro-themed game from Vibra Gaming, and although few gamers will remember the original outings of The Phantom, many will appreciate the work that has gone into capturing the era of classic comic book heroes.

Free spins are a little difficult to trigger but this pales into insignificance when it comes to triggering the Money Re-spin Bonus. Despite this, we can recommend this slot to all but high rollers.
