Voodoo Candy Shop Slots
Sometimes, the title pretty much says it all. Voodoo Candy Shop is a video slot game designed by BF Games that takes place in a one-of-a-kind shop, where innocent sweets are mixed with magical artefacts and zombie-making potions. An odd choice for a slot game, but also one that will stand out and make a strong first impression - which is clearly what the developers were going after.
With 20 paylines and a very average volatility, Voodoo Candy Shop gives every player a good chance to win small or big at any time. The game is also quite rich in special features, not to mention the intricate graphic atmosphere that will not fail to impress even the most experienced gamblers out there. Let’s see what exactly Voodoo Candy Shop has to offer in our complete review of the game.
Creepy Magic Shop
Voodoo Candy Shop is taking place in a very special store, one that sells both candy and magic. The candle-lit shop is full of strange artefacts, from African masks to colourful pieces of parchment hanging from the ceiling and covered in mysterious symbols. Add a couple of voodoo dolls to the mix and there you have the recipe for a spooky and original game universe.
Voodoo Candy Shop is properly unique on the slot market and manages to blend spooky with funny in roughly equal parts. The creepy sound effects add to the Halloween feel of the game, and we really had a blast looking around this unique shop as the reels were spinning.
Zombie in the Making
Voodoo Candy Shop is played on a 5-reel setup with 20 paylines available. You can adjust the number of paylines that you want to bet on with the side tab on the left of the reel set. Place a bet between 0.05 and 50 credits per turn thanks to the command bar and spin the reels when you feel ready to go. Voodoo Candy Shop also includes a bet max button and autostart mode, in case you were in a hurry.
As mentioned before, and as you will realise soon enough once you start playing, Voodoo Candy Shop is sticking to an average variance. This is good news because it translates into equal chance to win big or small prizes at every turn, which puts the emphasis back on pure chance. Experienced gamblers usually favour this type of slot game for a reason, after all. On the paytable, you will find various colourful candy, from lollipop to tiny wrappers, followed by masks, dolls, empty skulls and voodoo practitioners. The top prize so far is a very modest x50 reward, which is clearly not as much as we would have expected from such an exuberant slot game.
Why Pay When You Can Play for Free?
Voodoo Candy Shop is quite rich in special features, such as an optional gamble game that becomes available after any win on the reels. Hit the gamble button to try and double up your latest reward by guessing correctly the colour of a hidden card. This is a classic feature, by no means unique to BF Games slots, but still quite useful if you feel that luck is on your side.
On the reels, you will find a lantern that plays the part of the wild card and replaces all of the basic symbols easily, giving you more chances to score higher rewards during the game. The candles, however, cannot be replaced and work as scatters. Three of them appearing on the reels at the same time, aligned or not, award 12 free spins, during which wild lanterns will be stacked on entire reels at once.
The Curse of the Small Jackpot
Voodoo Candy Shop was a hit for us for different reasons: the original and beautiful graphics, which give the game a unique atmosphere, and the original paytable. Otherwise, the game was not particularly generous in terms of cash prizes, and we were forced to play all-in most of the time in order to attempt to win more interesting prizes.
Steampunk Big City is another BF Games slot game with a somewhat similar atmosphere as Voodoo Candy Shop, but otherwise the game is really a unique creation. Will it be enough for you to decide and spend your money there? The final decision is yours entirely.
