Go on a quest for alien life forms in Little Green Men Nova Wilds, a 5 reel, 20 payline video slot from IGT. Look out here for 4 modifier extras that can deliver plenty of wild extras or a re-spin with a boosted paytable. There’s also a free spins round that’s played on a 40 payline machine where the modifiers hit more often. Play on all devices from between 20p and £40 per spin.
The design here is done cartoon style and works pretty well. You’ll see a planet and plenty of stars behind the reels. There you’ll find A to J symbols which are carved into meteor rock. More rewarding are a control panel, a helmet, a ray gun and a mini android. The most lucrative symbol is the Little Green Men logo. Land 5 of these and you’ll get a payout of 25 times your total bet.
Helping to create those winners is the wild which substitutes for everything bar the scatter. The wilds are central to 3 of the 4 modifier extras which can strike at random on any spin during both the base game and the free spins round:
- Horizontal Wilds feature – 3 or more standard symbols on the same row are replaced by wilds.
- Vertical Wilds feature – 2 or more wild reels are in play here.
- Giant Wilds feature – you’ll see 1 or 2 giant 2×2 blocks of wilds here. Get this during the free spins and the wilds blocks are 3×3 in size.
- Re-Spin feature – you’ll receive a re-spin here. The symbols are all upgraded too.
- Multiplier feature – once your modifier is complete, you could see a multiplier flash onto the screen. This can boost your payout by 2x, 5x, 10x or even 25x.
Land 3, 4 or 5 of the flying saucer bonus symbol on the same spin and you’ll trigger the Free Spins Bonus feature with 6, 12 or 24 free spins. These take place on an expanded set of reels which offer 40 rather than 20 paylines. The modifier extras hit more often during the feature rather than in the base game too meaning you could benefit from wild reels, a row of wilds, 3×3 wilds, re-spins and multipliers up to 25x on each free spin!
There’s plenty to like about Little Green Men Nova Wilds. The anarchic visuals are nicely done and there’s a 1950s alien invasion movie feel to the soundtrack. The modifiers scrub up pretty well too, as does the Free Spins Bonus feature.
We’ve not always been big fans of IGT video slots but Little Green Men Nova Wilds is one of the developer’s better efforts. Medium to high variance, you can win a whopping 25,000 times your total bet on each free spin with the 25x multiplier! If you like aliens, WMS’ Invaders from the Planet Moolah has a very similar feel.
