Cthulhu is the latest creation from Gluck Games, an exclusive for Yggdrasil. Are you brave enough to challenge the spine-chilling monster to bag the top prize of 2,000x the bet.
About Cthulhu
The action takes place across 5 reels with 10 winning ways. It’s available on all devices from 20p- £20 per spin. It has a medium variance, and a slightly below average RTP of 95.42%.Inspired by Cthulhu a mythical creature said to be part octopus, human and dragon. Set in the underwater city of R’lyeh, Cthulhu stares from above the reels which are flanked by 2 scary statues and the soundtrack creates suspense as the reels spin.On the reels are the low value blue, red, green and purple gemstones, a diamond, and 5 high value adventurers worth x15-x50 the bet for 5. The treasure chest is the wild and has no value on its own, but it substitutes all symbols barring the Cthulhu scatter.
Gameplay
The Craze of Cthulhu feature is central to the game and helps towards pocketing the top prize of 2,000x the bet. To active the feature you need to land a Cthulhu scatter on the 1st, 3rd and 5th reels awarding 10 free spins. It can be retriggered after landing another 3 scatters.After landing any one of the adventurer symbols they may engage in a battle against Cthulhu’s minions. If the adventurer wins it transforms into a sticky wild until the feature ends. If a scatter lands on the same position it acts as both a wild and scatter for that spin.
Verdict
Cthulhu has superb visuals and animations with a unique theme, totally immersing you in the game. There’s plenty of action throughout especially in the bonus game with the help of the sticky wilds. The top prize of 2,000x is a tad disappointing but it is worth a spin or 2 for the experience alone.
