Life and Death Demo & Review

Life and Death review

Life and Death puts the Four Horsemen on reels 2 to 5, each as its own wild multiplier. Pestilence on reel 2 carries 2x to 4x, War on reel 3 carries 5x to 9x, and Famine and Death on reels 4 and 5 bring larger values still. Several horsemen in the same win add their values together.

The bonus rounds turn the horsemen into expanding wild reels, so a full line-up can light up the middle of the grid. Because each horseman is tied to a reel, it's easy to see what a spin is building toward. The maximum is 15,000x.
