Habanero Drops Slot for Halloween Season

Habanero, the big player in the gaming field has just released a frightening and sensationally eerie slot which will revolutionize the whole online casino world. Introducing Shivering Strings, a ghostly playhouse setting game, that is not only scary but also makes your wallet happy.

It isn’t just any typical spin-and-win deal. Imagine that you are in an old theater where puppet shows are malfunctioning, and the marionettes are thinking for themselves. Yup, the atmosphere is unsettling as if you are in a scary movie, but the silver lining? Players can earn up to 2,877 times their wager. Not a bad deal at all when it comes to conquering your fears.

The game rocks a classic 5×3 setup with 25 paylines, keeping things simple while the features go absolutely wild. Speaking of wild, the walking wilds in this bad boy don’t just sit pretty – they march across the reels like possessed puppets, sticking around until they’ve done their damage.

Here’s where things get really interesting. The Macabre Masquerade feature is basically the puppet master’s ultimate power move. When those creepy hands show up on screen, they shuffle all the symbols around like a twisted game of musical chairs. Then boom – the hands transform into wilds, potentially turning a dead spin into a massive win.

Want to dive deeper into the madness? Three scatter symbols unlock the free spins round, where the real show begins. The Marionette March feature turns wild symbols into full-reel monsters that slowly creep across the screen, leaving a trail of winning potential in their wake. Players can score extra spins by landing +1 symbols or retriggering the whole shebang.

For the impatient crowd, there’s a Buy Bonus option in certain regions, plus a Super Bet feature that cranks up the scatter symbol frequency – though it’ll cost you extra.

Toni Karapetrov from Habanero summed it up perfectly, calling it a perfect blend of ghostly storytelling and solid gameplay mechanics. The game also supports Jackpot Race, making it a no-brainer addition for online casinos looking to spice up their Halloween offerings.
