Play After Dark for Free

After Dark has a simple theme and relatively simple graphics, which is not to say that the game does not have character at all.

The dark and red background looks like flames licking the reels placed in the middle. The symbols are bright and very visible, while the command buttons at the bottom of the game screen are kept rather discreet to help players immerse themselves within the game universe.

In a nutshell, After Dark bets on simplicity and a classic spooky theme to attract players. The result is quite convincing, without being revolutionary. Let’s see what we can learn about the gameplay in our next section.

After Dark has a simple gameplay and few rules to follow. As a result, beginner players will be able to start betting right away.

The game matrix features 5 spinning reels and 5 fixed paylines, which indicate where on the screen symbol combinations have to land in order to change into cash prizes. Use the bet button under the reels to choose a wager, that is to say the amount of credits you will be risking on the next turn. Spin the reels when you are ready and see if luck is on your side.

The more money you decide to bet on the reels, the more you can get in return in After Dark. You wager determines your future payouts as much as the symbol combinations do. Keep that in mind, and do not hesitate to use the bet max button to go all-in and see if you can hit the jackpot. Finally, After Dark also features an autoplay game mode. Activate it to allow the reels to spin freely, placing your wager over and over again.

After Dark has an original paytable that is split between classic and more original reel symbols quite evenly. We will have a look at the menu here and see how much money is at stake during the game.

The most common symbols of the game are colourful dice numbered from 1 to 6. Their winning combinations consist of 3, 4 or 5 identical symbols on a payline, and you can win from 1 to 16 times your total bet value with them. A modest start, in other words.

The crow, cat, bull, vampire and Dracula symbols come next on the list. Most of them also allow short combinations of 2 icons to trigger a small cash prize. The largest reward available here is the equivalent of 500 times your current wager. And there is still more to discover on the reels of After Dark.

After Dark has a few spooky and rewarding surprises to offer to the most courageous players. All you have to do is stay focuses and keep an eye out for some of the special features that we will detail here.

First of all, the fang symbol is the wild card of the game and as such you can use it to replace any other symbol on the reels. This will give you an extra chance to score some more winning combinations. Besides, fangs expand on the entire reel they appear on every time they show up.

The dice labeled 1, 2, 3 and 4 also have a special feature that is worth mentioning here. Clusters of these dice can trigger win multipliers to make their payouts a little more interesting. For instance, filling up the entire screen with one of them multiplies the entire payout by 5. Check out the paytable to find out more about the other multipliers available.

After Dark is a fun and spooky slot game with an Halloween theme and decent graphic that make it very pleasant to play, if not unique on the market.

The payouts are decent without being exceptional, and the few special features of the game still add a little spice to the mix. That being said, After Dark is relatively low-key and could have used a few extra bonus symbols.
