Play Orcs' Battle for Free

If you are a fan of epic fantasy fiction, then this slot machine will be right up your alley. The game's theme is based on a battle between some gruesome orc armies, meaning that the game screen is filled with a number of un-pretty sights such as green goblins characters, bloodied bludgeons and fearsome battleaxes. So, this slot is perhaps more suited for the strong-stomached fantasy fanatic because there are no princesses or unicorns in sight!

For such as gruesome theme, this slot machine is full of colour and interesting design features to encapsulate the whimsical nature of the otherworldly setting. That's not to say that the game is spectacularly designed, however, because it does suffer from being a little bit out of date with some cartoon illustrations and minimal use of animations. Nonetheless, the artwork adequately places players into the heat of the battle with volcanic underground environment, strong metallic reels and some suitably deformed and ugly looking orcs. What's more, the reels will spin to an epic theme tune that is worthy of any film soundtrack from the fantasy adventure genre.

We can imagine that the strategy behind a real Orcs’ Battle consists of nothing more advanced that “see enemy, hit enemy”. However, players of this slot machine are afforded a bit more leeway when it comes to determining their spinning strategy. That is because the game offers a wide range of wagering options, as calculated by three separate factors: the number of lines in play, the number of coins placed next to each active line, and and the size of those coins. All in all, punters can spin with a total bet that is as small as 0.01 or as big as 125.00 credits, with many different wagering permutations in-between.

With all 50 paylines active, players will have many opportunities to find winning combinations of matching icons on the 5x4 reel grid. In fact, whenever three or more identical symbols appear on a payline from left to right, a multiplier value will be applied to the value of the bets on that line to award a prize. You can see those line bet multipliers in the table below:

Players can also win with the Orcs’ Battle scatter icon, depicted by the game's logo. This icon will award total bet multiplier wins no matter what position it appears on the reels. Three will pay 2x the total bet value, four will give a 10x total bet prize and five will fetch a 50x win. In fact, this icon will award the slot machine's biggest jackpot of 6,250 credits if players were to find five with a maximum total bet of 125 coins.

This game doesn't go overboard on the bonus gameplay front, but there are still a few special features to give players an extra chance to emerge victorious from Orcs’ Battle. First up, there is a simple wild icon that will sit in for other symbols to complete line wins – except, of course, for the scatter.

The game also offers some free spins, 10 of which will be played whenever three or more scatters appear on the reels. That might not sound too exciting since nearly all video slots out there offer the same feature, but this round of freebies is a little bit different with wild symbols that will lock into place for the duration of the free spins.

Orcs’ Battle may not be the most contemporary adventure slot out there, and it certainly doesn't offer the most interesting gameplay features, nor is the 6,250 credit jackpot particularly mind-blowing. However, players who enjoy their fantasy games to be big, bold and bloody will surely find this slot machine by Genesis Gaming to be suitably entertaining for a spin or two.
