An Upcoming Slot Worthy Of A Look – Hint: Squid Game

Squid Games: One Lucky Day is based on the hugely popular Netflix fantasy series where a group of strangers battle it out (to the death) to win a life-changing sum of money. Participants are thrown into the spotlight to see if they have what it takes to walk away with the cash…

..the frightening thing is, 99% of those who signed up will not be walking away with anything – not even their lives! Powered by Light and Wonder, Squid Games: One Lucky Day features characters from the TV series and it perfectly recreates the unhinged terror viewers once encountered, oh, and if you think you’ve got away from the “red light, green light” statue, think again!

Instead of royals that are a frequent feature on the reels of many an online slot, Light & Wonder have thrown in those moreish oriental crackers bearing the outline of umbrellas, stars, triangles and circles. Fans of the show will know they’re not for eating though!

Spin in a trio of golden piggybank symbols and it’s time to spring into a bonus game time! Once the piggybank symbol on reel 5 stops spinning it will award one of the following possible bonus games:

• Red Light, Green Light Bonus: It’s time to explore! Choose one, two, three or four steps to try and reach the finish line before the statue turns around and eliminates you! If you complete your chosen steps you will be awarded a stake multiplier! One step can award 1x, 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x or 10x, two steps can award 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 10x or 20x, three steps can award 3x, 4x, 5x, 10x, 20x, 40 or 50x and four steps can award 4x, 5x, 10x, 20x, 30x, 40x, 50x and 100x. High steps means higher potential rewards but greater risk of “death” (elimination!). Reach the end and you’ll unlock the jackpot!
• Jackpot Bonus: Pick mystery soldiers until you match 3 to win the corresponding jackpot. This feature guarantees either 4.56x, 45.6x or 4560x your stake.
• Glass Bridge Bonus: One of the most terrifying “rounds” played on the Netflix show and now you can try to get from one side to the other for great rewards! The aim of the game is to choose left or right to try and get to the other side of the glass platform (max 18 moves). A successful move will see you progress while an unsuccessful move will result in your falling through the glass panels, it’s not all bad news though as this will award an extra upgrade and move you onto the free games part of this bonus. Every successful move upgrades your free games with either 1, 2 or 3 additional bonus spins, a wild upgrade (walking wilds, locked wilds and moving wilds), additional 1x multiplier and low paying symbols being removed.
• Tug of War Bonus: Strength matters not here, thank goodness! This feature has wild reels and every tug pulls that wild reel to the left or right (for increased wins). The bonus will continue until the wild reel is tugged off the end of the reel engine.
