Invaders Takeover - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Invaders Takeover Slot Review

This is one of the more exciting ways to conduct an alien invasion, when a video slot takes on the look of a classic arcade game. It’s bright and colourful, with an unusual 6x4 layout, a starting figure of 4096 ways to win that can increase, and layers of bonus feature on bonus feature where free spins can also bring extra wilds and multipliers. How does it compare to other Light & Wonder slots? Let’s see.

Step Aboard my Spaceship

You probably guessed from the “Invaders” in the title. Yes, that could mean an invading army from another country, but contextually it’s more like the title of a retro arcade game where little spaceships head toward earth filled with their crews of little green men. It’s a fun take on an old idea, with a certain amount of retro charm but also some shiny and modern 3D graphics.

Cometh the Invasion

We’re on the spaceship with the reels, looking out through the viewscreen where we can just make out the stars and purple-tinged sky of space, but it’s hard not to look at symbols that include the alien invaders themselves but also some comical images like a rather perturbed-looking cow being levitated up into the waiting sky. It seems the invasion has begun, but there’s also a human scientist, with the mad hair traditional in this sort of role. Who knows what he’ll do next?

Invaders Takeover RTP and Variance

The Invaders Takeover slot has an RTP of up to 96.1%, but it’s possible some casinos may set it lower. The variance is unknown.

How to Play Invaders Takeover

Are you ready to defend the earth?

1. Start on the left. That’s where you’ll find the gear that opens the menu. In addition to a mute button, it has a link to the paytable.
2. Once you’ve explored payout potential of winning symbols, game rules, and the Invaders Takeover bonus features, set an appropriate bet by clicking on the coins and then using the plus and minus signs. There is a 0.20 minimum.
3. You should have your responsible budget and limits all set up already.
4. Press the spin button, feel the anticipation, and hope for the best but be prepared for a loss. Try to enjoy yourself, which is easier if you don’t focus too hard on winning.
5. Stay in control, and stick to your limits.

How to Win at Invaders Takeover

It’s possible you noticed that Invaders Takeover has a more expansive layout than most slots. The common format is 5 reels and 3 rows, but here you have 6 reels and the row total is 4. This means that the ways to win - not narrow paylines but every possible route starting on the left - number 4096. Just match at least 3 symbols, and preferably 6, and look out for opportunities to trigger bonuses as you go.

Top Wins

• There are 6 card symbols. The lowest valued of them, the 9, has a 0.4x win multiplier to apply to your bet when found six times.
• The four themed symbols are worth more. For the biggest total win from the regular paytable, you need 6 game logos. That will earn you a 10x win multiplier on your original stake.
• Overall, the max win is x14,596.

Invaders Takeover Bonuses 

Now for one of the most exciting parts of our Invaders Takeover slot review: free spins, multipliers, extra wilds, gamble, and all sorts of other ways to try to boost your total win while also having some extra fun. If you’d rather not take additional risks, consider trying some free demo slots first.

Free Spins

A bonus scatter symbol, appearing 3 times, can trigger free spins. The number of spins is decided by how many planets you destroy. New positions appear above some of the reels. Wild symbols on the regular reels can fly up into these positions and make them active. Wilds lock in place to be added to subsequent wins. You’ll see a multiplier representing how many wilds are in each reel.

Alien Attack Bonus

Two bonus symbols may trigger the alien attack bonus, but only if the onboard computer detects a threat. No threat, no bonus. If the bonus starts, the triggering symbols will turn into bonus wilds, and you'll receive a laser gun that can shoot up to 5 wilds onto the reels.

Gamble

Slots with gamble features give you the chance to risk what you already have for a chance at a prize. You could end up pocketing a bigger prize, but if you lose, the original payout vanishes. This gamble feature involves a little dial, and if the arrow lands on green, you win. Land on red, and it’s a loss. You could win cash, and you could win free spins.

Invaders Takeover Review - Summary 

Many players will enjoy this bright and fun take on a classic alien invasion story. It’s not all about the look and theme or even finding winning symbols across the thousands of available ways. There are multiple bonus games and each one has layers, so you have lots of chances. Just remember that timeout and self-exclusion can still be valuable to stop you from getting overly excited and forgetting the sometimes capricious nature of slots.
