In most stories and fantasy games involving goblins, they’re usually side characters you can do without. And by this, we mean, well, they aren’t exactly the top monsters out there, are they? Then consider when have you ever felt goblins were helpful or of a good nature? Probably never. But, while the goblins in this online slot machine by Nolimit City retains many of their typical characteristics. They are also incredibly useful to punters spinning the reels because if they want to trigger the game's best bonus features, they will need help from the collection of evil green monsters.
After the success of Fire in the Hole xBomb, you could suggest that Nolimit City decided to take everything that was good about that casino game into what we see in Evil Goblins, so there are naturally many similarities. Aside from the xBomb attached to the end of the slot’s title, all the action takes place below ground, and the soundtrack has similar vibes to what plays in Fire in the Hole xBomb, which isn’t a bad thing. Evil Goblins xBomb, although it comes with the xBomb function, which can see rows expand up to seven spaces high, is one of the more conventional slot releases by Nolimit City, which is saying something. Other titles of theirs, such as San Quentin xWays, often break convention where possible. But Evil Goblins is more of a conventional offering, even if it’s not entirely there on the meter.
And, let’s face it, being conventional can get boring at times. So, when you see that this Nolimit City slot machine has six reels and 729 paylines as standard, a number that can increase, it’s easy to see why Evil Goblins xBomb has been somewhat of an explosive arrival at Canada's online casinos. We mentioned above who thanks to xBombs, can increase the number of rows, which naturally means more symbols, and more online casino thrills because of the additional ways to win that will come into play. Well, they can remove symbols and increase multipliers, too, making them an exciting inclusion.
When you’re spinning the reels of a slot titled Evil Goblins xBomb, it’s only right that they’re the stars of the show. There are four of them in total, and instead of having names, they’re known as Goblin 1, 2, 3 and 4, respectively. As far as payouts go, they pay more than the royal icons that populate the reels, which are 10, J, Q, K and A, with Goblin 4 delivering up to 1.5x the stake. But, of course, the four standard goblins can’t be left to their own devices, so there is a menacing Goblin King, and he pays the most in the game and double that of Goblin 4.
Another icon to keep an eye out for is, of course, the infamous xBomb. There are several more special icons, but the xBomb can affect the game in multiple significant ways. First, any adjacent symbols will be removed, bar scatters, Dead Wilds and Resurrection Wilds. Second, when xBombs explode, it will result in a +1 increase to win multipliers. And another row of symbols will be added into the mix too.
Describing Evil Goblins xBomb as feature-rich would be a fitting tribute to a game with tons going on where bonuses are concerned. You have goblins sacrificing themselves by throwing grenades at matching symbols to turn them wild, and there are three types of wilds – regular, Dead and Resurrection.
The scatter, as always, will play a crucial role where bonus features are concerned as three or more will trigger Fresh Meat Spins, with Dead Wilds guaranteed to appear. And, there is the chance to upgrade the feature if all four goblins at the top of the reels are the same type, in a phenomenon known as the Evil 4.
Upgrading to Goblins feast will mean four free spins, but a multiplier will be in play, too. A matching goblin at the top of the reels will increase the multiplier by 1, and xBombs landing in the feature can further enhance the mayhem.
Evil Goblins would have been fun, but add xBombs into the mix, and you have another well-crafted Nolimit City masterpiece full of winning potential. Tons is going on in the goblin cave, and they, as you will expect, are the stars of the show. All the game’s top features and winning potential come via their involvement, so don’t be too hasty hating on them, even if they are peculiar looking.
