Tome of Madness

Rich Wilde could probably write several books of his own by now, given that this enigmatic character has travelled the world exploring ancient civilisations, crumbling museums and fascinating times in history. With his latest adventure, he’s gone beyond the world of books and delved into something more serious: a tome! Tome of Madness is a rollicking adventure that whisks you into a disturbing place in the imagination, a gothic horror novel-styled pokie. The madness in this game is the kind of insanity that Victorian writers dreamed up, the chaos created when humans and the unseen worlds beyond the veil collide. If you like an entertaining Rich Wilde story, then this could be your game! Take a closer look with Wildz Casino.

Design

Join Rich Wilde in an abandoned mansion where cobwebs shift in the breeze and lightning illuminates shattered glass in the windows. This murky place is the perfect environment for a theme based on H.P. Lovecraft’s fictional universe Cthulhu Mythos, where the godlike creature Cthulhu reigns supreme. The reel symbols include lesser-value green, blue, red, and purple stones with obscure scripts on them, while the more valuable symbols include Cthulhu skulls, rings, daggers and octopus pendants. These symbols glitter in the darkness, inviting you to take part in the adventure.

Gameplay

Cascading pokies can offer astounding action that seems to snowball out of control sometimes, and Tome of Madness is just such a game. Symbols drop down from the top into the 5x5 play area of the grid. If winning combinations result when they land, those symbols are removed from the grid to be replaced by new symbols dropping down into the gaps left behind. Three different Wilds are available, the Tome which acts as the standard Wild symbol, the x2 multiplier Wild represented by Rich Wilde and the Cthulu creature as the Mega Wild which only appears in the bonus round. These can really help to shake things up.

Bonuses and features

The Portal Effects feature comes into play with a variety of opportunities if you can fill the portal meter to the left of the reels by scoring successive cascading wins. The more cascades and Wilds present, the more engaging the features become. With 7 symbols, 2 Special Wilds are awarded and added to the grid; with 14 symbols, 2 Special Wilds are awarded and added to the grid. The Abyss feature may also be activated. With 27 symbols, 2 Special Wilds are awarded and added to the grid and a Void Portal Effect feature is activated. With 42 symbols, the Other World Free Round feature is triggered.

Overcharging the portal feature provides additional multipliers and features are added, so this game can really take off if the cascades work in your favour. The Play’n GO game Reactoonz has a similar style of action, and this has appealed to legions of fans over the years.

Tome of Madness on the move

You can play Tome of Madness on a desktop PC as well as a mobile device, since the developers have made sure that their games can be played on the go. Even though it has complex action in it as well as some smaller animation sequences, none of the seamless activity is lost in any format.

Volatility

The high volatility setting inTome of Madness means that players need to be prepared for some win-free rounds, although the wins can accumulate in a satisfying way if the cascades keep tumbling down. The Return-To-Player value comes in at 96.59%%, a pretty decent figure by online pokies standards.

Worth a try?

Each game Rich Wilde visits is quite different in terms of gameplay and design, so he is something of an icon on online pokies. In this case, the cascading action that can trigger a huge variety of Portal effects makes a welcome debut. The design is a little spooky, but even the Cthulu symbol, when it transforms into a Mega Wild is quite fun to watch rather than terrifying. This game is ideal for players who love additional features, especially if they’re not too intimidated by the volatility rating and they are keeping an eye on their bankroll. There are frequent opportunities to win some lucrative rewards, too. It’s an ideal title for high rollers and newcomers looking to explore how a cascading slot works.

A tip: look out for a companion game at Wildz featuring a schlock-rock god: Alice Cooper and the Tome of Madness!
