Immortal Romance

Immortal Romance is like the adult version of Twilight, or the gothic version of Clue. It has four main characters: Amber, Troy, Michael, Sarah. The journey through the four levels of the Chamber of Spins bonus game uncovers secret parts of their lives and relationships. It brings the players one step closer to unveiling the full truth. But, just what is that truth?

The story starts with Amber (image to the right), a descendant from a line of Caribbean witches who possess supernatural powers. Sarah is her ordinary mortal friend (or so it seems) from childhood, who falls in love with Michael – a vampire. Sarah doesn’t know that, because Michael is disguised as a genetics professor. Amber, being a caring and protective friend, threatens Michael that if he comes close to her, she’ll inflict some serious damage.

Sadly, her plans are thwarted by Troy – another immortal vampire born in the early 19th century from Hungarian aristocracy. Troy throws Amber for a loop, because he develops an interest in her. This guy’s bio labels him as a ‘vampire playboy‘ – no joke.

There’s some extra plot thrown in here and there, but at the final level you’ll discover that – shock! horror! gasp! – Sarah isn’t exactly 100% human herself. If you care enough, you can read up about each character’s individual story in the paytable.

The tone of the overall slot is very dark, and the graphics are some of the better ones that Microgaming has produced. The narrative touch is definitely a bonus to this slot, because it does essentially circle around the Chamber of Spins bonus game. It’s very similar to another Microgaming slot, Thunderstruck II, in this way but with higher payouts. Still, as with most great slots, it’s the gameplay that makes this slot a success more than the graphics and storyline.

There aren’t a crazy amount of special features in the Immortal Romance slot, but the ones that it does have can be very lucrative for the players. It has all the normal aspects of a video slot, like Wilds and Scatters, but the most unique and special part about this slot is the bonus game. It has four levels, one for each character, which bring with them different amounts of free spins and different special features. For a more detailed description of what each level brings to the table, check out the below sections.

Keep in mind that Immortal Romance has 243 ways to win, not so much fixed paylines. ‘Way wins’ are basically awarded for left to right adjacent symbol combinations, there aren’t any ‘patterns’ or ‘combos’ which you have to hit to get winnings.

As with most Microgaming slots, the paytable of the Immortal Romance slot is at the higher end. Even the lowest symbols, with the lowest frequency combo of 3, still pay out 1 coin. The wild symbol pays out a max 300 coins, which is very generous for a main game symbol. Overall, this paytable should suit high-rollers and casual players alike, according to how much they bet per spin.

The RTP of this slot ranges between 96.01% and 96.86%. We suspect this is because there is a huge difference between the main game and the bonus game, which is a drawback to us. You’re not going to win much from the main game alone, you have to cross your fingers and hope that you unlock the bonus game to get some real winnings. But, based solely on our experience of the slot, even the hit frequency of the bonus game isn’t that high. You have to really bet low for a while until you unlock Amber, and unlock Troy as well. Once Troy is unlocked, you can start aiming a little higher.
