The Motörhead video pokies game is the third and final instalment in the classic ‘Net Entertainment Rocks’ series – a set of three immersive ‘rock-themed’ online and mobile slots titles that now include Guns N’ Roses, Jimi Hendrix and Motörhead.

Set against a stage back drop with guitars, lights and amplifiers, players can choose to enjoy the game in ‘rock mode’ (with classic Motörhead hits playing in the background) or in ‘regular mode’ (no music). We recommend ‘rock mode’, always.

Motörhead gameplay features

Motörhead boasts some unique and exciting gameplay features that offer up some huge payouts, as described below:
The Ace of Spades wild: The wild will substitute for all symbols, except the scatter icon, to complete a winning combination.

The skull scatter symbol: Land three scatter icons anywhere across reels three, four and five (in the base game) and you will be rewarded with 10 free spins. During the free spins, the mystery reels (described below) will consist of both wilds and mystery symbols.

Motorhead online pokies gameplayThe mystery reel feature: On each spin in the base game and during free spins, one or more reels will be mystery reels. The mystery reel features one or many mystery icons (the Motörhead skull). Once all reels have stopped, the mystery icons (which can stack all positions on the reel) will transform into random symbols (except the scatter) for the potential to create some giant wins. Note: the mystery reel will always be active unless the bomber feature is active instead.

The bomber feature: This feature is activated randomly before your spin, in the base game only. When activated, the reels will turn dark, lights will flash, a siren will sound and Motörhead skulls (bombs) will appear across the reels. These skull bombs (at least 10) will then spin and turn into overlay mystery symbols to create some massive winning payouts.

Our verdict on Motorhead

The Motörhead video slot game pays a great tribute to the classic rock band, following the 2015 death of front-man Ian ‘Lemmy’ Kilmister. The band remains one of the most successful and beloved rock and roll bands ever, having released 22 studio albums, 13 live albums, 12 compilation albums, four extended play albums and having sold more than 30 million albums across the world, during a career that lasted 40 incredible years.

It boasts some awesome graphics (including strong flashing lights that the game warns may not be suitable for photosensitive epilepsy), incorporates classic hits from the band (songs listed in the ‘information’ section), owns the unique ‘grid-style’ slot design, offers up some exclusive high paying bonus features, and is the perfect concluding game to the ‘Net Entertainment Rocks’ series.

Combing out love for rock music and gambling, this online and mobile interactive slots title is one that has already become a fan favourite.
