Hey, there casino fans! The time has come for me to make good on my promise on bringing you fresh and exciting news from the iGaming industry. And boy, have I got news for you! On September 24, the renowned Swedish software provider NetEnt released their latest creation under the shape and form of Captain Hook, much to everyone’s delight! NetEnt has accustomed its fans to one or two slot releases per month, thus seriously increasing an already rich and vivid collection of games.
Their products are renowned for their mesmerizing graphics, the enticing soundtracks and let’s not forget the huge number of betting and playing options, such as the flexible Autoplay function, which can be set to stop or play as you see fit. NetEnt has recently received the ‘Digital Industry Supplier of the Year’ at the 2015 Global Gaming Awards, after adding no less than 34 desktop and mobile titles to its portfolio over the past 12 months, including its first game entirely created in HTML5.
Meet the Infamous Hook’s Heroes
The newest NetEnt slot will tickle the child in you, taking you on an adventurous journey filled with pirates and enticing treasures. Hook’s Heroes is a 5-reel, 3-row video slot that features wild and scatter symbols, free spins with different winning combinations and a special feature spin mode. During the free spins rounds, there are 3 features. With the first one – the Fairy Feature there will be 2 wild symbols placed in random positions on the reels. During the second one, The Mermaid Feature, all wins will be multiplied by 2, but if you are lucky enough to have 1 or more wilds, then all wins will automatically be multiplied by 4. And last, but by no means least, the Pirate Feature pays off according to the visible symbols, no matter how they are spread across the reels. Once you hit 3 or more scatter symbols, you can choose between the three features and your choice will also determine the number of free spins: 7 for the Fairy, 10 spins for the Mermaid and 15 free spins for the Pirate Feature. The theoretical RTP (return to player) for this slot is a decent 96.82%.
As a passionate fan of NetEnt games, I have to say that I always look forward to their new slots and this one has truly been a delight to review. The infamous Captain Hook – the enemy of the jolly Peter Pan character has obviously been a great inspiration for the Swedish software company and they managed to turn it into another jewel in the NetEnt crown. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
