Design and Symbols
The scary designed background fits so well to this game with a nice purple colour. Non-Premium symbols (9, 10, J, Q, K, A) can remind you from the summer/autumn/winter/spring queen slot series, as they look same, but are still a bit different. In premium symbols, we have two rings which pay the same amounts, a silver lady, and finally a gold lady, which is the best symbol of the game. Music is ’scary’ as in every tales of Darkness games, but we would still keep the sounds on, as it sounds good! The scatter symbol in Lunar Eclipse is a Moon symbol, which doubles as a wild symbol in the game as well. The symbol is easy to spot, as the words “scatter” and “wild” covers the moon in this game.
Special Features
In this game, we have only one special feature, namely the Lunar Eclipse feature in addition to the normal gamble feature. This is triggered by the scatter symbol, which also doubles as a Wild both during free spins and the base game.
Lunar Eclipse feature
Three to six scatters will trigger a Lunar Eclipse bonus, and you will get 10 free spins with a selected special symbol on reels two and five. In the bonus feature, the real potential will show up, as you can get a full screen of your special symbol. When you get your special symbol to the reel two and/or reel five, the symbol will expand to reels 1 and 3 and/or to reels 4 and 6. If you get full reels of your special symbol on reels 2 and 5 you got a full screen! Free spins can also re-triggered during the bonus game, which we find great!
Our thoughts on Lunar Eclipse
We think that Lunar Eclipse has the most potential and is the best game in the Tales of Darkness series. We really like the bonus game, as we haven't seen a feature like that from GreenTube before. We’re looking forward to more similar releases from the provider. , It is great that every new Novomatic release is different than before! The game looks great, it wagers well, and the bonus shouldn't be too hard to hit. We totally recommend this new novomatic release.
