Undead Fortune by Hacksaw Gaming

Hacksaw have embraced the season of horror with this slot which is set in an Ancient Egyptian tomb. It’s a high variance game with 5 reels and just 10 fixed paylines. Hacksaw fans will notice that it uses the DuelReels feature which sets you up against an undead monster. Defeating the ghoul earns you a multiplier of up to 200x, a Stacked Walking Wild and a Re-Spin. There is also a bonus round with locking reels and more 200x multipliers.

If you like the sound of that, why not try Undead Fortune at Duelz Casino – sign up there and you’ll get a 100 Book of Dead spins when you make your first deposit.

Castle of Terror by Big Time Gaming

Keeping the horror theme going, Big Time Gaming are unleashing their own undead slot this October with Castle of Terror. This is a high variance slot as you might expect, with a 4,096 payline game engine and a soaring top win of 61,720x. A tranquil castle with apparently mild inhabitants by day turns into a nightmarish scene by night as blood-lust ensues.

A core feature is the Holy Water that turns standard symbols wild and brings a multiplier into play. There are also two free spins rounds in which Holy Water lands on EVERY spin and your multipliers do NOT re-set between spins.

Where can you find this spooky mayhem? Casumo would be a good choice – a slots fans paradise with over 2,000 games and 20 Book of Dead spins for first depositors.

Big Bass Bonanza Keeping It Reel by Pragmatic Play

If you don’t want to be scared out of your wits whilst you spin the reels this month, you could always try something more relaxing. How about a spot of fishing?

Arriving late in the month, Big Bass Bonanza Keeping It Reel is a high variance game with a 5,000x jackpot to aim for. Key to unlock the best action here will be the Wild and Golden Wilds which add more free spins and multipliers to the reels during the bonus round. This popular franchise usually deliver something special and were betting on this being one of the best new slots in October.

You can enjoy this slot at Casino Lab from Genesis Global. They have the full Pragmatic Suite of games and you’ll also get 300 Reactoonz Spins with your first deposit here.

Dream Drop Diamonds by Relax Gaming

Relax Gaming continue to grow their Dream Drop Jackpots network with Dream Drop Diamonds, a game built exclusively for the progressive format. This one will help you escape the dark evenings with the promise of an aspirational prize. The same luxury scenery and symbols you find in games like Mega Fortune from NetEnt can be found on the reels which appear against the backdrop of an opulent resort with swimming pool, palm trees and sunshine!

As well as Cascading Wins there is a Dream Drop prize ladder in the game. Every Diamond symbol that lands gets you further up the ladder towards a 4,000x top win. But it’s the Mega Jackpot we all want. It’s one of five Dream Drop prizes available in this game!

You have to be in it to win it, and you can be at MrPlay, the Aspire Global casino currently offering 100 Free Spins on NetEnt games to new depositors.

Superstars by NetEnt

And finally, we come to this all-star video slot released in October by slots heavyweights, NetEnt. It’s like a Marvel superheroes event in the movies. Gonzo, Brute, Finn, Lady Pigg and a Star from Starburst all come together on the reels in this game that has no less than 11 (yes … 11) features to trigger.

So, you’ll get to enjoy free spins, multipliers and cloning multipliers as well the joy of seeing all your favourite NetEnt characters appearing on screen at one time. Is there enough space for all those egos? Time will tell!

Superstars is available at any slot site in the UK but our recommendation is you try this slot at Voodoo Dreams. It’s another SuprPlay casino but this one has a suitably spooky, almost supernatural theme. Join them today and you’ll get 50 Book of Dead Spins with NO wagering requirement on your winnings!

That concludes our recommendations for October 2022. Don’t forget to keep your eyes on our slot reviews page for the our take on the latest games, with new reviews added every week.
