Voodoo Hex Slot Review

Voodoo Hex Slot RTP, Details & Wager Limits

The Voodoo Hex slot is played with 3 reels, 3 rows and 5 fixed paylines. A winning combination is simply formed when 3 matching symbols appear across the 3 reels, across any of the paylines.

Bet levels vary between 10p and £100 per spin. There’s a ‘bet’ button below the reels. When clicked on, it will bring up a screen with all 15 bet amounts. Next to this there is a Lightning Bolt icon which, when clicked, will activate Turbo Mode. To the right there’s an Autoplay button where you can choose infinite autospins. Both the last 2 options aren’t available in the UK though.

The Voodoo Hex RTP is 96%. This is exactly the online slots average. There is also a 94.1% RTP version so check at your chosen UK online casino before you play. The volatility is in the medium to high bracket and there is a 22.66% hit frequency rate. This means a winning combination lands every 4.4 spins on average.

In terms of max payouts, the maximum win is 9,800 x your total bet. Won once every 1 billion spins on average, the larger wins come the progressive multiplier which is present in 2 bonus features.

Theme – transform Mardi Gras into a magic ritual

With a dark magic theme, you head deep in the New Orleans French quarters with the Voodoo Hex slot. As Mardi Gras takes place across town, the former priest is at work in the Voodoo Shop at the end of a dark and sinuous street. The priest attempts to win Oshun’s favour by casting spells and transforming the streets into a magic ritual.

With a creepy jazz soundtrack, the visuals are brilliant. With a dark and sinister feel, it comes with Peter & Sons’ unique design flair. The reels are set on the Voodoo Shop’s wooden shutters.

Symbols include moon, eye, bones and potion tarot cards as well as voodoo dolls, goblins, snakes and a female character. The Oshun character symbol is the best paying with 3 in combination awarding 2.5 x your total bet.

Then you have Potion Wild symbol that substitutes for all symbols above. 3 on a payline also pays 5 x your total bet. Other symbols you’ll come across include Mystery Stacks, Scatters and Coins.

Voodoo Hex Mobile

With Peter & Sons producing all their slots with HTML5 technology, Voodoo Hex is available to play on mobile, tablet, laptop and PC devices. The 3×3 setup is perfect for playing on a smartphone, including those operating with iOS, Windows and Android technology.

Voodoo Hex Bonus Features

The Voodoo Hex slot comes with 3 bonus features. There are Mystery Stack respins where the progressive multiplier rises with every respin. This also applies in the Free Spins feature where the multiplier can increase even quicker.

Mystery Stack Respins feature

Filling at least 2 reels with the same symbols will trigger the Mystery Stack Respins feature. The triggering symbols transform into Mystery Stack symbols and the remaining symbols respin. All Mystery Stacks then reveal a randomly chosen symbol, including coins with up to 100 x bet.

Then all symbols equal to the reveal symbols become Mystery Stack symbols again. These Mystery Stacks move 1 step down for the next respin. The respins continue until there are no Mystery Stacks left. Furthermore, you’ll begin with a 1x and this progressive multiplier increases by 1 with each respin.

Free Spins feature

The Free Spins feature is played when 1 Priest Scatter symbol lands in the middle of the reels (middle position on reel 2). You will be randomly away 5, 7, 9 or 11 free spins.

The Mystery Stack Respins feature is in play and unlocked. This means the progressive multiplier increases with each respin and free spin.

Outside the UK, there is a Buy Free Spins feature. 7, 15 or a random number of free spins will cost 52, 111 or 70 x your total bet respectively.

Voodoo Hex Review Summary – progressive multipliers key to great rewards

As expected from a Peter & Sons release, the Voodoo Hex slot is superbly designed. The graphics are high definition and the animations really bring the symbols to life. The soundtrack offers a nice balance of New Orleans jazz and black magic.

In terms of the gameplay, a screen full of the female character will result in a 12.5 x bet win. If you fill all positions with wilds, you’ll win just 25 x bet. Therefore, the key to big wins is from the progressive multiplier that is present during the respins and free spins.

With 9,800 x bet max wins, I found the Free Spins feature to be the most lucrative as the progressive multiplier can increase in 2 ways. That said, the Priest needs to cast some serious spells for the multiplier to rise to a very high level. Hopefully the Mystery Stack symbols will reveal coins which can be worth up to 100 x bet each.

In summary, Voodoo Hex is brilliant to look at but only comes with 2 bonus features. With big wins possible, the simplicity of the gameplay will appeal to certain players. If you like the theme, you have Voodoo Gold (ELK Studios) which comes with up to 262,144 ways to win and 5,000 x bet top wins.
