Horror Castle Slot Machine - Play Horror Castle Slot Free

Introduction

Horror Castle from World Match is a 5x3 reel, 25 payline game with some basic features. But if you’re looking for a classic halloween themed slot, does Horror Castle deliver?

If you’ve played other World Match slots like Gentleman Thief you’ll know exactly what to expect. Rudimentary graphics, a decent soundtrack and basic but classic features. That’s exactly what’s on offer in Horror Castle with wilds and free spins up for grabs.

The graphics are a little better than in other World Match slots and new players will be able to cut their teeth with some high-value wins - if the reels fall for you. Horror Castle is mobile optimised so you can play on smartphone and tablet, and you can enjoy fun money spins at Slots Temple.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

The graphics in Horror Castle cover every type of monster and creepy crawlie in the book, from vampires and zombies to skulls, tarantulas and even Death himself. 

It’s a good choice for Halloween but you won’t get many jump scares out of this game. It’s pure old fashioned horror. Just listen to the camp but fantastic soundtrack which summons up everything from Universal classics of the 30s to Hammer Horror’s heyday in the 1970s. Atmospheric music is something World Match does well. It’s a shame the graphics aren’t quite up to the same standard.

There are 11 symbols to look out for including a blood-stained cleaver and a bloody eyeball - are the two connected? The background to the reels is also dripping with blood. The cartoon-style graphics and soundtrack together have a definite retro vibe and new players will love the simplicity.

Horror Castle RTP and Variance

This World Match slot offers medium volatility and a below average RTP of 94.9%. Most seasoned players will steer clear but if you’re a new player or in it for the fun and kudos this is a perfectly adequate classic slot.

Horror Castle Review

Games like Horror Castle are great when you’re new to slots, and the high-value paytable let’s you rack up some decent fun money prizes when you play no-deposit spins. For more experienced players, the lack of a bonus game will be a drawback and the big wins don’t land often enough to make this slot worth the while of risk takers.

There are thousands of horror themed slots out there, but if you fancy a few thrills and chills while you play, we recommend the Vlad's Castle slot from Eyecon with its 5,000x top prize.
