Under the Bed Slots

BetSoft has delivered another breathtaking slot. The brothers bring a new angle, attempting to keep the monstrous inhabitants of their nightmares at bay. A fair number of extras—bonus games, free play, and so on—let you sample the experience before committing any cash.

What’s it about?

Under the Bed is a five-reel video slot that brings to life all the things that bump at night. The gameplay occurs over 30 pay lines and includes wilds, free spins, and a pick-to-win bonus game where the main characters face the scary monsters. That cute pair is just a taster of what is to come, as when you start spinning the reels, you will see a range of other impressive animated vignettes play out before your very eyes.

Slot Design

The animated graphics are top-notch, and so is the creative theme that gives life to what would otherwise be a standard slot machine. If you merely glance at the game, it looks fantastic, but if you take the time to appreciate the visuals, you’ll find something special. It features two siblings—Jesse and Jane—who are the scary part of this children’s nightmare. The duo is incredibly animated; the frights the ghouls serve them are computer-generated. As the game flickers and flashes, Jesse and Jane can be found trembling, jumping, and otherwise freaking out as they experience a nonsensical tempest of terror.

The Game Symbols  

Jesse and Jane appear on your reels as animated icons. They are joined by four monsters that jump from boxed icons to scamper around your reels. Other icons include a bedside lamp, a bed, a mysterious door, and a big window. The sound effects add to the gameplay, with suspense, a fast tempo, and monster sound effects that match the visual action perfectly.

How to Play  

You will join Jesse and Jane, trying to fend off the ghoulish monsters that appear. You are presented with five playing cards, from which you will select monsters to make your reveal. Each monster drops onto the bed and scares the living daylights out of the siblings, and you continue to choose and reveal until you find all the monsters in your set, in which case you have made a complete collection. Everything ends well, though, with a scene where the kids’ mum comes in and tucks them into bed.

Betting Options

You can wager between $0.02 and $75. Bet on just one pay line, or increase the active number incrementally using the buttons at the bottom of the game window. Betting across all 30 pay lines is a good idea because this is the only way to qualify for the game’s jackpot. There is a bet maximum button to click if you want to go all-out on a single spin to optimize your payout.

Bonus Features

When you play, you’ll notice this game offers many good features, including the main bonus round and several other mini-rounds with a wild and a double-up feature. In the main round, you can get random credits by killing monsters. Free spins are hard to come by because you must spin in the mysterious door symbol on the center position and the center reel.

Mysterious Door Bonus

To activate the Mysterious Door bonus, you must land that symbol on your central reel to unlock the Free Spins bonus feature. By doing so,  you get many free spins. The bonus round can give a good multiplier with your wins during the free spins. You may win some nice payouts in the bonus round.  

Sticky Wilds

Under The Bed has an interesting wild feature that gets triggered when the silver-trimmed monsters appear during any spin. This awesome ultralight event solves the cool animated sequence that plays before the icon flips over to reveal a wild symbol. But hold on a second; this wild doesn’t work like an ordinary wild. Instead, it has a randomly triggered number that denotes how many spins the wild will stick around for. It works brilliantly and is a fantastic change from other slots with standard wild features.

Round Up

The creepy cupboard door symbol lets you win free spins, while the double-up feature enables you to multiply any win you earn by two if you get lucky as part of a traditional double or quit setup. With a great range of animated symbols—all unique to the game rather than being replicated from older titles—a compelling soundtrack, and brilliant bonuses, Under the Bed is a slot adventure everyone should try at least once.
