ABOUT THE BAT STAX SLOT 

Bat Stax by Greentube is based on a spooky Halloween theme. In addition to scary black bats, the slot features some other eerie Halloween symbols including black cats, owls, and pumpkins. The slot’s background is a yard graveyard covered with mists to create an even more scary effect. 

A mix of creepy tunes and other scary sound effects play in the background as you spin the reels and get even louder when you trigger bonuses or land a winning combination. The soundtrack further contributes to the overall Halloween vibe and spooky atmosphere of the slot. 

GAMEPLAY 

WAGER

Bat Stax is played on a five-by-three reel setup with 20 fixed paylines. The aim of this slot is to line up three to five identical symbols side by side on a win line. The only exceptions to this are the Wild, bat symbols, and owl symbols which only require two symbols to form a win. The symbols must align from left to right to be considered a valid win. For each spin, you must place a minimum bet of $0.20. 

SYMBOLS

Bat Stax has both high and low-value Halloween-themed symbols. The lower value symbols are the 10, J, Q, K, and A card symbols and they pay between four times to five times your wager for a five-symbol combination. The spider and black cat symbols both pay 10x for five matching symbols on a win line while the owl pays 25x for the same combination. 

The Wild symbol unlocks a payout of 50x your wager when it forms a combination with itself, but also forms a winning pattern by substituting for any of the other symbols. The pumpkin is the Scatter symbol and it triggers the free spins bonus round. Bat symbols unlock a payout of five times but can also appear as an overlaid expanding symbol unlocking a payout of up to 100x your stake. 

SPECIAL FEATURES 

The purple witch's hat is the Wild symbol in Bat Stax. It substitutes for any of the regular icons to form a winning combination. It also unlocks a cash prize of up to 50x if it forms a winning combination on its own. 

The highlight of this slot is the bat symbol which triggers the overlaid expanding symbol. In the main game, landing three bat symbols anywhere on the reels will make the symbols expand to cover the entire reel anywhere they appear. 

These overlaid bats will transform reels one, two, and three into stacks of bats, four overlaid bats will transform reels one to four while five overlaid bats will transform all five reels into stacks of bat symbols. In addition to transforming whole reels, this feature will also unlock the top prize of 100x your bet amount. 

BAT STAX FREE SPINS FEATURES

The pumpkin Scatter is the bonus symbol in this Bat Stax. It offers a payout of up to 25x if you get up to three anywhere on the reels. Three, four, or five Scatters will also trigger 10, 15, or 25 free games. 

If two or more bat symbols appear on the reel during the free spins bonus round, the icons are held in place and a re-spin is triggered. This will continue until no new stacks are formed on the reels, granting you big wins. 

Apart from the in-game bonus spins, online casinos also grant players free games through all kinds of casino bonus offers or promotions. For instance, new players on EnergyCasino will get no deposit-free spins as a welcome bonus as soon as they register and verify their account. Older players will also get free spins through deposit bonuses, tournament prizes, or other casino promotions..
