This Captain Scarlet slot from OpenBet instantly transports me back to reruns of this indestructible hero, when puppets fighting evil warlords was all the rage. OpenBet has gone all out with themed reels, authentic music and cracking sound effects to create the ultimate homage to Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons. But can it satisfy gamblers? I took a detailed look to find out.

Captain Scarlet Slot Theme

Once the slot has loaded you are greeted by the familiar theme music from the show, the slot uses a 5 reel, 30 pay line format. This is a little unorthodox but is great news for gamblers because it gives you more opportunity to win.

The background taken from the show, it depicts a blurred Captain Scarlet and Lieutenant Green on a mission. Toward the bottom there is an awesome control panel which looks suspiciously like the one from the TV series, OpenBet hans’t simply opted for their standard buttons here!

The reels are also suitably designed, with icons of characters and equipment used in the show. These include an array of aircraft, weapons, vehicles, Captain Scarlet, Lieutenant Green and various themed letters and numbers. Each bounce into life with a win with cut scenes from the show, sound effects or simple animations depending on the icon involved.

So the visuals, sounds and gameplay are all good. But, is it any good for gambling? The short answer is yes, it offers a number of betting options which will satisfy gamblers of all budgets. You can set the slot up to play from as little as 30p for all 30 lines, if you want to lessen this you can play a single line for 1p a spin.

More adventurous gamblers can configure the slot in a number of ways all the way up to £750 per spin!

Captain Scarlet Features

The Captain Scarlet Icon is a scatter, it bases wins on the total stake per spin. Three of these icons awards 2x your stake, 4 awards 3x and 5 multiplies it by 5.

The SIG scatter symbol substitutes for all other symbols apart from the scatters, it doesn’t multiply any winnings but seems to pop up quite often to increase odds of winning smaller amounts.

The special wild card is a whole different story, when this triggers it has the possibility of setting off the ‘Mystery Retro-Metabolism’ wild which fires off super wilds all over the reels creating massive wins. This is one of the most creative super wilds around at the moment.

OpenBet have done a great job with the features and general design of this slot. Very entertaining and suitable for all budgets, great job!
