Kraken's Hunger is a versatile slot game that lets players choose their level of challenge and reward by selecting between three grid sizes: 5x3, 5x4, or 5x5. Depending on the chosen grid, the game features 5, 10, or 20 paylines, giving you control over how intense your hunt for the Kraken's treasure will be. The slot’s theme is brought to life with deep-sea visuals, ominous audio effects, and symbols that reflect the lore of the fearsome Kraken.

Reel Setup and Paylines

Players can choose between a 5x3, 5x4, or 5x5 grid. Each size offers a different number of paylines: 5 paylines for 5x3, 10 paylines for 5x4, and 20 paylines for 5x5. This customization allows for varied gameplay experiences, from simple to complex.

Symbols: The game’s symbols include compass symbols (the key to triggering Free Spins), pirate ships, and squid Wilds. These symbols, combined with the Kraken theme, immerse players in the dark, treasure-laden depths of the ocean.

Free Spins and Bonus Rounds

Compass Symbols: The Compass symbol, wrapped in tentacles, is crucial to accessing the Free Spins feature. Landing 3, 4, or 5 Compass symbols on the reels triggers 10, 15, or 20 Free Spins, respectively.

Squid Wilds

During Free Spins, the squid Wild symbols become the player's best friend. Every 4th Wild that appears grants an additional 10 spins and applies increasing multipliers to the total spin wins. The first four Wilds add a 2x multiplier, the next four add a 3x multiplier, and the last four add a massive 10x multiplier, leading to potentially huge payouts.

Ship Symbols

In the base game, pirate ship symbols carry random values and act as direct payouts when 3 or more align on a payline. The payout varies depending on the grid size and the number of symbols matched.

Free Spins

During the Free Spins round, these ship symbols offer even greater rewards when combined with a squid Wild. When a Wild lands with ship symbols on the reels, it collects the value of all visible ship symbols in a single spin, leading to a substantial payout.

Chance x2 Feature

Players looking to boost their chances of hitting the Free Spins feature can activate the Chance x2 option. This increases the bet but also doubles the likelihood of landing the required Bonus symbols. However, enabling this feature disables the Buy Bonus option, adding a strategic layer to your gameplay decisions.

Reel Size and Payline Impact

Adjusting the grid size alters the complexity and potential of the game. Smaller grids with fewer paylines offer more straightforward gameplay, while larger grids with more paylines provide more opportunities for significant wins, especially during the Bonus rounds.
