Black Beauty Slots
Sometimes, all you need to create a great slot game is decent graphics, a solid gameplay and a little bit of mystery on top – not to mention high stakes.
Black Beauty is a video slot game designed by the Gamomat (formerly Bally Wulff) team that gathers all these elements together and manages to create an original game universe powerful enough to simply draw players in and have them hooked in a matter of minutes. No need for a complex back-story here, Black Beauty brings enough original elements to be interesting on its own.
Stay around a little longer and read our complete review of the game if you want to put all chances on your side to hit the jackpot on the reels of Black Beauty.
Enchanting Natural Settings
The Gamomat team bet on the graphic quality of the game environment when they designed Black Beauty, and this clearly shows in the final product.
As a player, you will be transported on a riverbank somewhere deep in the forest. You could almost hear the sound of the water cascading at your feet during the game. There are plenty of details to look at and get lost into in the background, which is clearly visible through the semi-transparent reels of the game. As we will see later in this review, the game also draws from the universe of horse races as it is directly inspired by the 1994 motion picture of the same name.
Add a pleasant melody to the mix and you have the lovely, entertaining mix that is Black Beauty. Now that you probably feel a little intrigued, let’s move on to the gameplay itself in the next section.
Tame the Wild Horse
Black Beauty leaves players in control when it comes to customise the settings. Thus, you will have quite a lot of freedom right after loading the game into your computer.
The game matrix is a classic 5x3 setup, that is to say that it features five reels of three symbols each. You can choose between 10 or 20 active paylines thanks to the side tabs that frame the reels. You need to line up winning combinations of symbols of these paylines in order to trigger a cash prize, which will depend on both the type of combination and the size of your initial wager. Use the command bar below the reels to adjust your bet settings and click the Spin button in order to start the game. For maximum efficiency, try the Bet Max button and you will go all-in on all paylines for the following spin. This is probably the easiest way to increase the size of your future winnings.
With the Autoplay shortcut, the game will keep on spinning the reels on its own for as long as you like. Click the button again to come back to single-spin mode, but remember that your earnings will be moved to your credit total automatically regardless of the game mode you are playing in.
Big Prizes are on the Menu
The paytable of Black Beauty contains nine basic symbols in total, which we could split into two different categories according to the cash value of the combination they can form.
The classic card symbols range from number 10 to the Ace and are the most frequent of the game. Their payouts are more modest than for the rest of the paytable, but still quite generous in comparison with other games.
Aim for the Tiara, the Necklace, the Saddle and the three Horses for the biggest rewards in Black Beauty. With their realistic design, you cannot miss those very valuable symbols when they show up on the reels.
Some Special Features for Extra Big Wins
Each win on the reels of Black Beauty is an occasion to play a Gamble mini game. Guess correctly the colour of a spinning card and your earnings are doubled. Tread carefully though, as a wrong guess can make it all disappear.
The mysterious Black-Haired Woman is the Wild card of the game. She can easily substitute for any basic symbols and thus help you score a few extra winning combinations across the reels.
Finally, the Black Horse is a Scatter symbols that awards no less than 10 Free Spins, regardless of its position on the screen. During the free games, the very same Black Horse will serve as an extra Wild card as well.
What a Beauty
Black Beauty is a beautifully designed slot game that should appeal to a wide range of players, whether or not they are familiar with the film or even the original novel it was based on.
With generous rewards and plenty of Bonuses to enjoy, Black Beauty is full of arguments in its favour.
