Special Features
The special features of Alien Hunter includesa wild symbol, scatter icon and double bonus games. It is themed in a cartoon graphic style, in the always popular science fiction genre. Basically the player gets to be the hunter, and as usual the aliens are the baddies. As opposed to the aliens we have come to know in the series of films, there is no gore in this game, it is a fun to play outer-space mission.
These reels have been popped into the backdrop of a star-ship type control panel, where three different aliens need to be captured. The archetypal green alien is an icon, with purple octopus and goldfish-looking counterparts. Other symbols include aliens in cages, their eggs, the alien hunter of course, and card indices Ace, King, Queen, Jack and 10. Ambient sounds accompany every action, and these too are in theme.The caged alien icon is the wild symbol, and is suitably animated as it rattles the bars of its cage creating winning combinations, while scatter spaceship are also ever so useful for lining up generous multiplier awards. The more scatters line up, the bigger multipliers are.
Bonus Features
Alien egg icons landing on the reels trigger the first bonus round – another screen replaces the reels with an eerie cave, filled with eggs. The player clicks on these eggs and is hopefully rewarded with multipliers. Click on an egg containing an alien, and this ends the bonus round. Land three or more alien hunter icons to go head to head with aliens and win cash. This bonus feature puts a gun in the players’ hand. Shoot aliens in either manual or automatic mode, you have fifteen seconds to win.
