About Annihilator
Play ‘n Go’s Annihilator is a music-themed slot loosely based on the Canadian thrash metal band, Annihilator. Of course, if you happen to be a fan of the band, then you are in luck here, as there are plenty of tracks to listen to as you spin the reels. Annihilator is hardly the most prolific metal band of all time, despite having seventeen albums to their name. For that reason, the market for this game may be somewhat niched. However, the slot itself is a decent effort from Play ‘n Go. It is not as exciting as NetEnt’s Motorhead or as popular as the Scandinavian developer’s Guns ‘N’ Roses slot, but it is in the same vein. Annihilator offers 5 reels and 10 lines to bet on, with stakes rising from 0.10 up to 100.00 a spin. Prizes are fair, rising to 5,000x a bet, but this is a highly volatile release. Moreover, its RTP fluctuates from an unacceptable 84.2% up to a fair and reasonable 96.2%.
Special Features
Wild symbols appear as Jeff Waters, and these will double up as top-paying icons but also substitute symbols, as you would expect. Doll symbols appear as scatters, and they can appear on the three central reels. You will need them to show up on all three to trigger the Fun Palace bonus.
In the Fun Palace round, players can choose from doll symbols to pocket prizes rising from 1x up to 5x and pick again. If you win prizes ranging from 10x up to 50x, the bonus ends. You could also end up landing a free spin scatter behind those dolls, at which point the Set the World on Fire round begins.
During the base game, a In Command bonus may be triggered at random. This will see any wilds that appear on the screen transformed into expanding wilds. You will get a re-spin with those wilds, too, giving you an added shot of winning.
Bonus Feature
The Set the World on Fire bonus can be triggered via three scatters or via the Fun Palace round. It promises eight spins with expanding wilds. The expanding wild will shift to the left or right a random number of reels on each spin. This can leave trailing wilds that could stretch from one to three rows in height. Moreover, if a new wild lands in those fiery spots, it can turn the entire reel into wilds. Keep an eye out for scatters, too, as they can add up to fifty additional spins to your tally.
