Play Bitten for Free

Bitten is an online video slot based on the mysterious life of a vampire. Symbols include the standard Ace, King, Queen, Jack, and 10 icons, as well as the Crypt Bonus Symbol, the Bitten Logo, the Goblet of Blood, the Candelabra, and the Celtic Heart icon, complete with coffin embedded within in, which is the highest paying regular symbol, paying 500 coins when 5 of these icons land on a reel with a max payout worth 250,000 if player is spinning at the maximum bet value of 100.00.

Bitten offers a good span of features from regular features like wild, multipliers, and scatter symbols, to the custom-made Crypt Free Spins Bonus Round, specifically designed to fit the theme and a bit more complex than the archetype IGT free spins bonus offered on the majority of their slot games.

The Bitten Logo is the wild symbol. One or more on a payline doubles the reward on any winning combo it completes. This symbol also doubles as a scatter icon and offers scatter pays that are separate from regular payline winnings. Scatter pays for Bitten Logo symbols can go as high as 250X the total bet if the spin results in 5 Bitten wild symbols on one payline. This is where a max bet would be most beneficial in this game. Four scatters will yield a 10X multiplier; 3 scatters will provide a 5X multiplier ; and 2 scatters will result in a 2X multiplier on the bet. The scatter feature is added to the total amount paid when they are awarded. Only the highest paying scatter is awarded to the player. There is yet another scatter pay scale that is relevant in the free spins bonus round, detailed in the next section.

The bonus feature in the Bitten slot game is the Crypt Free Spins Bonus. This bonus feature has a much larger paytable and can really enhance player wins, much more so than winnings incurred in base play. To trigger the free spins bonus round, 3 or more Crypt Bonus symbols must fall on any of the 5 reels. As mentioned above, the Crypt Free Spins Bonus also comes with scatter payouts. When 3 Crypt Bonus symbols fall anywhere on the reels, the reward is 5-14 free spins and a 3X scatter pay multiplier; 4 Crypt Bonus icons will bring from 8-17 free spins and a 10X scatter pay multiplier; 3 Crypt Bonus icons will initiate anywhere from 10 to 20 free spins and an impressive 200X scatter pay multiplier, in addition to any line wins you incur.

The number of free spins is determined when the player is asked to select from 3 coffins presented to him at the onset of the Crypt Free Spins Bonus event. The selected coffin will reveal the amount of free spins you’ve won. The amount of free spins can increase with the amount of times the bonus is triggered. For instance, in base play, up to 20 spins can be won, but if free spins are retriggered during free spins, up to 50 free games can be won. Additionally, free spins are played out on a different set of reels, although the bet for all free spins will be the same value as the bet placed on the initiating spin, another benefit of maximizing your bet to at least cover all 20 lines. Furthermore, with each free spin, a free spins wins multiplier is applied to payouts received during the bonus spins, beginning at 1X on the first free spin and going up in increments of 1 with each subsequent free spin, up to 50X if free spins are retriggered. Consequently, 50 is the max amount of free spins that can be retriggered, then base play resumes until the Crypt Bonus Free Spins are triggered again.

Bitten the video slot actually offers a more budget-friendly limit scale, where between 1.00 and 5.00 coins can be applied to each line and paylines can be activated in 5-line increments beginning with 1 and increasing to 5, 10, 15, or 20 paylines. Thus, a minimum bet of 1.00 on all 20 lines will only cost you 20 credits; whereas, you could bet up to as much as 100 at a 5.00-coin level applied to all 20 lines. It is to the player’s benefit to play the max bet on Bitten, especially if he hopes to score the 250,000-coin max payout. However, if you can’t afford to wager 100 credits on every spin, at the very least, it is recommended that you bet 1.00 on all 20 paylines in order to optimize payouts in both base and free spin bonus play.

The online video slot Bitten is one of the more developed slot games by IGT, though it might not look so on the surface. Stay and play a while, though, and you will be rewarded for your perseverance. Fans of vampire literature and films like Twilight, as well as those who are just interested in vampires, will enjoy this game for its theme. However, any slot connoisseur will appreciate the well-developed and planned out bonus that is not the typical free-spins-only bonus that we see in IGT slots, but also includes scatter multipliers and a click-me-style component, not to mention the opportunity for payouts.
