Nightmaker is an casino slot game by ELK Studios, that invites players to explore the dark lair of a mysterious creature alongside a masked hero, and that can be played at iWild Casino. The aim is to defeat the beast and uncover ancient treasures worth up to 50,000 times your bet.
The dark abyss can intimidate even the bravest adventurers, but our hooded hero wields magical powers through four powerful features that illuminate the path ahead. Charge symbols with multipliers, split them, and fill the grid with Wilds as you navigate the treacherous caverns where dangers lurk at every turn. When you finally reach the last chamber where the monster is chained, free it and allow it to transform into a massive 3×5 symbol before you defeat it once and for all, claiming the treasures guarded by its cursed soul.
The game featuring 5 reels, 3-5 rows, and an initial 1,125 ways to win, which can expand to 25,000 with specific features. Players can select their bet from a variety of options, starting with a minimum bet of $0.20 and going up to a maximum bet of $100. The game has a default RTP of 94.00%, with medium-high volatility and a maximum win limit of 50,000 times the bet. The average base hit frequency is expected to be 24.90%.
The game’s action unfolds in a dark tunnel filled with sharp rocks, with rubble scattered across the ground and chains hanging from the ceiling. Sinister whispers, slow droning sounds, and eerie acoustic effects layer over a gloomy music track, creating a truly chilling atmosphere. Instead of waiting for something to leap out from the shadows, it’s wiser to concentrate on the grid where rewarding features and cascading wins can lift your spirits.
To achieve a standard winning combination, you need at least 3 matching symbols to line up on adjacent reels, starting from the leftmost reel.
The paytable is split into two clear groups of symbols. The low-paying symbols are blue, green, purple, and red runes etched on stone tablets, each offering 0.4x the bet for matching 5 on a winning line. The high-paying symbols consist of intricate artifacts adorned with blue, green, and purple gems, along with the image of the beast, paying between 0.8x to 10x the bet when 5 matching symbols align on adjacent reels. Additionally, Wilds appear as a fire-glowing emblem, while Scatters take the form of the game’s masked hero.
