Witness a Spooky Puppet Show

Habanero highlighted Shivering Strings as the latest in its line of high-performing slot games. The company said that players can look forward to a variety of engaging features, such as walking wilds, a thrilling free spins round, and other bonus mechanics that further optimize the winning potential.

The Macabre Masquerade feature will dramatically shift the course of the game. Once players land on a symbol representing the puppet master’s hands, he will rearrange all symbols on the grid, allowing players to win big. The symbol in question will then turn into a wild, further enhancing the spin’s potential.

Reach the Show’s Culmination with Free Spins

The game boasts a free spins round that can be triggered by collecting three scatter symbols. Players can activate the Super Bet feature and increase the size of their bet but also increase the chance of landing on scatter symbols. Alternatively, players can buy free spins in markets where this is allowed.

During free spins, players can earn additional spins either by landing on a +1 symbol or by retriggering the feature by collecting three scatter symbols in a single spin.  

The free spins round also boasts the Marionette March feature, which will expand all wild symbols to cover the entire reel. The wilds would then remain on the grid, shifting to the reel to the left with each spin, until they exit the board.

Dramatic Style Meets Rewarding Gameplay

The stunning visuals, outstanding atmosphere, engaging features, and support for Jackpot Race make Shivering Strings a versatile slot that will sit well in operators’ portfolios.

Toni Karapetrov, Habanero’s head of corporate communications, described Shivering Strings as a “captivating story” that combines a ghostly narrative with engaging mechanics, allowing players to win big.

He concluded: “The combination of a dramatic style teamed with rewarding gameplay underlines our focus on providing operators with content that delivers both appeal and commercial results.”
