Devil's Finger

Each year, thousands of new online casino games come to market, with a large percentage of them destined to be forgotten about shortly after being released. However, every now and then, a new game is released that takes players by surprise for all the right reasons. And that’s exactly what’s happened with **Shady Lady’s** debut release titled **Devil’s Finger**, which has garnered rave reviews from virtually everyone who has had a chance to play it. **Game Introduction** Set on a 6x4 reel grid, **Devil’s Finger** is a hauntingly beautiful game that features 4,096 ways to win, which can expand to 20,736 ways to win thanks to the game’s extra rows that can open above reels 2-5. As **Shady Lady** puts it, **Devil’s Finger** is played in a dark parallel dimension, where the game’s main character named Cosmo battles it out with the devil himself. In addition to this game’s terrifying graphics, it features a remarkably haunting soundtrack complete with perfectly timed sound effects that almost makes it seem like you’re watching a movie rather than playing a slot machine. This is quite an achievement in itself, but it’s just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to all the bells and whistles that **Devil’s Finger** has to offer. **Paying Symbols** As noted above, this game is equipped with 4,096 ways to win by default, which requires you to land 3 or more matching symbols on adjacent reels beginning with the leftmost reel in order to trigger a payout. The available paying symbols in this game include a series of satanic symbols that offer payouts ranging from 0.1x to 1x your bet along with an assortment of character symbols that offer payouts ranging from 0.3x to 2x your bet. There is also a wild symbol, represented by a dragon cat, which substitutes for all paying symbols. If you’re wondering how much you can potentially win while playing **Devil’s Finger**, you’ll be delighted to know that this game boasts a maximum win of 20,000x, which definitely puts it amongst the highest paying slots of its kind. Additionally, **Shady Lady** has rated this game a 9 out of 10 on the volatility scale so it’s certainly possible to score some major wins from time to time while playing **Devil’s Finger**. **Cosmo Feature** While playing **Devil’s Finger**, whenever the Cosmo symbol lands on the first reel without the Devil symbol landing on the last reel, Cosmo will add a random number of wild symbols onto the reel grid. In doing so, you’ll have an increased chance of triggering a sizable payout from one or more winning combinations. **Devil Feature** Similar to the Cosmo feature described above, whenever the Devil symbol lands on the last reel without the Cosmo symbol landing on the first reel, you’ll be rewarded with a re-spin. During the re-spin, the closed rows sitting above reels 2-5 will open and each finger on the reels will move up a random number of spots while the column multipliers are upgraded accordingly. **Free Spins** In order to trigger the free spins bonus round while playing **Devil’s Finger**, you’ll need to land the Cosmo symbol on the first reel along with the Devil symbol on the last reel in the same spin. In doing so, you’ll be awarded 7 free spins, with the closed rows sitting above reels 2-5 opening for the bonus round. After each free spin, a random finger moves up one spot, with its corresponding multiplier increasing by one. Throughout the bonus round, it’s possible to land spell bottles on the first and last reels, which will grant a Heal, Lightning Bolt, Conjure Dragon, Frostbite, or Necromancy spell. **Fingers & Multipliers** During both the Devil feature and the free spins bonus round, the devil’s fingers and column multipliers are activated. Each finger that’s activated can move upward to cover up to 5 rows, while symbols beneath each finger cannot be used to form a winning combination. Whenever a finger moves up, its corresponding multiplier increases in relation to the rows it covers (one row equals a 2x multiplier, two rows equals a 3x multiplier, etc). **Bonus Boosters & Bonus Buy** If you’re the type of player who appreciates a good bonus buy, you’ll be thrilled to know that **Devil’s Finger** offers several bonus boosters that increase your chances of triggering the bonus round for a cost of either 1.5x or 5x your bet. Alternatively, for a cost of 100x your bet, you can buy directly into the bonus round without any delay. **Highlight Reels** For a new twist on bonus buys, **Shady Lady** is using its debut release **Devil’s Finger** to introduce what they are calling highlight reels. With this unique feature, you can purchase a batch of spins, where you will receive the 3 highest-paying ones. These will be presented to you in ascending order based on the win size, saving the biggest one of course for last. The cost of this feature is 73x your bet to be awarded the top 3 results out of 100 spins, 182x your bet to be awarded the top 3 results out of 300 spins, and 275x your bet to be awarded the top 3 results out of 500 spins. **Loot Boxes** Last, but certainly not least, **Shady Lady** has included a new feature in **Devil’s Finger** that it refers to as Loot Boxes. There are actually three different options, which are the rare loot box, epic loot box, and legendary loot box. These can be purchased for a cost of 150x, 307x, and 506x your bet respectively. Once purchased, you’ll be presented with a selection of tiles to choose from, where you’ll have a chance at triggering one of nine enhanced bonuses that on average will outperform a regular bonus round. **The Final Say** Although **Devil’s Finger** is **Shady Lady’s** first release, it’s quite evident that they’re poised to disrupt the online casino industry in a way that hasn’t been seen in quite some time. Not only does this game boast a massive maximum win of 20,000x with a generous RTP of up to 96.4%, but it’s also loaded with tons of great features that are designed to keep players entertained and engaged with each and every spin. This includes the Cosmo feature, the Devil feature, and of course the free spins bonus round. And on top of that, **Devil’s Finger** introduces innovative highlight reel and loot box options to go along with traditional bonus buys, which make this debut release from **Shady Lady** an absolute must-play game.
