Aliens is a branded slot machine from Net
Entertainment and it's based on the movie with
the same name from 1986. As most branded slots,
this one also has a lot of the known elements
from the movie shown during the game play. It
features a unique game play unlike any other
slot machine I've seen during all my years as a
slot machine player. During the base game you
actually collect winning symbols and win streaks
to activate the bonus game. Aliens features a
combined bonus and free spin game where you need
to proceed in the free spins to get to the bonus
game. The maximal win for Aliens is listed to be
3.800x the stake per spin, which is on the high
side for Net Entertainment slots. This prize can
be won by completing the bonus game when it
offers the max win.

Let me first start of by telling a bit about the
special game play on this slot machine. The game
play on Aliens is divided into 3 different
levels, the first level is named The Search.
This is the base game level, where you have to
collect winning combinations and symbols to move
on to the second level. The second level is
named The Encounter, this is the free spin level
where you have to survive waves from the monster
by collecting ammunition during the free spins.
If you manage to stay alive during the second
level, your taken to level 3. This level is
named The Hive and this is the bonus game where
you get the chance to kill the monster and
collect a decent cash prize.
Aliens has wild symbols on reel 2, 3, 4 and 5
during the base game, while it has wild symbols
on all the reels during the free spin feature.
These symbols substitute for all other symbols,
but they do not substitute for any multipliers
or add any symbols to the top line. Aliens has a
combined free spin feature and bonus game that
can be triggered in different steps. The free
spins are triggered from the base game, and the
bonus game is triggered from the free spins.
It's a little but complicated, but I'll try to
explain it in the below section.
The Search base game: This is the base
game on Aliens, here you'll see a normal slot
reel set with 5x3 reels. What’s special about
the base game on this slot is the 9 open squares
on the top of the screen. This is where you have
to look to activate the free spin feature. For
each win you get during the base game, one spot
on the top line is filled per winning symbol in
a winning combination (wilds does not count
towards the top line). So if you get 3 yellow
monsters on a payline, spot 1, 2 and 3 from the
left is filled on the top line. In addition to
filling the top line, all winning symbols also
get an added multiplier.
This multiplier will apply to all wins with that
current symbol during the base game and during
the free spins if you manage to get there. The
multipliers will start at x2 and then increase
by an additional x1 for each additional symbol
of the same kind. If you have 3x3 symbols of
different value, they all get a multiplier of
x2, x3 and x4. Each new spin that is made will
move the top line symbols one step to the left,
meaning that one symbol will be removed from the
top line for each spin. This will also decrease
the multiplier value for the symbols that are in
the left position on the top line. New wins will
add more symbols to the top line to help you to
fill it up. The goal is to fill the whole top
line with at least 9 symbols. This is what you
need to activate the free spin feature and level
2 named The Encounter.
The Encounter free spins: This is the
free spin feature on Aliens, and it's activated
from the base game as described above. The
amount of free spins you get is determined by
how much ammunition you manage to collect in
between each spin, as you can see in the down
right corner you start off with 1 ammunition.
All the free spins start with a guaranteed 3 of
a kind combination on line number 1, this
combination will reflect one of the 10 symbols
that are highlighted on the top line, and it
starts on the left side and moves to the right
side one step at a time. During the free spins
the topline has expanded to contain 10 symbols,
one for each of the different symbols in the
game. All multipliers that where collected
during the base game, are now added to the
corresponding symbols during the free spins.
After each spin you have to fight a monster,
this fight starts with a spin on an ammunition
wheel where you can win 1, 2 or no additional
ammunition. After each ammunition spin you have
you use 1 ammunition to keep the monster away
from you, as long as you have enough ammunition,
you get to carry on to the next free spin. This
process continues for 10 spins unless you run
out of ammunition and get killed by the monster.
If you get killed, you return to the base game,
but if you manage to stay alive for 10 monster
waves, your taken to the third level named The
Hive. This is the bonus game on Aliens.
The Hive bonus game: This is the bonus
game on Aliens, and it's triggered from the
previous mentioned free spin feature. This is
where you can manage to kill the monster and get
a decent cash prize for doing it. On the top of
the screen there are 60 health symbols that
represent the monster’s total health. There are
also 4 different cash prizes shown above the
lives, these prizes will be won if you manage to
take away 15, 30, 45 or 60 health from the
monster. You start the bonus with 4 ammunitions
which represent 5 spins on a grenade strength
wheel and 5 spins on a grenade multiplier wheel.
Each grenade can have strength of 1, 2, 3, 4 or
6, while each multiplier can have values from
x1, x2, x3, x5 to x10. The grenade you get will
be multiplied with the grenade multiplier, so if
you hit 3 on the grenade and x5 on the
multiplier, it equals to a total grenade power
of 15. This is then the amount of health symbols
that will be removed on the top of the screen.
To win the main prize all 60 health symbols need
to be removed, but if your unable to kill the
monster entirely, there's some smaller prizes to
be won during the shooting.
