Silent Run

About Silent Run slot machine

The New Zealand gaming company Netent are known for their high – quality games, and now they have spat out an underwater adventure for everyone who is fascinated by submarines-and of course big wins. Silent Run is the latest addition, and the game is now available at most casinos that provide NetEnt games.

Riding a submarine in reality is supposed to be a really claustrophobic and boring story – but these underwater vehicles probably do well in movies and in games! Here we have a slot from Netent with a submarine theme. More specifically, this automaton takes place during World War II, under the surface of the Pacific Ocean.

We at casinolist.co.nz love the atmosphere of the game, and both sound and graphics as well as features and bonus games immediately move the player to a completely different place and time. The submarines of reality are supposed to be a little claustrophobic and quite uncomfortable – but Silent Run gives a nice taste of life under the sea surface, while you do not have to leave your favorite chair.

Do you like classic movies like The hunt for Red October or The Boat this will be the perfect game for you. Silent Run is an incredibly atmospheric slot machine that dots that mysterious underwater feeling just right. With the chance to win up to a good million, there is nothing wrong with the winning opportunities either!

On the technical side, Silent Run is a modern video slot with 5 reels and 3 rows. There are 25 bet lines – but as on many other new machines, it is actually not possible to set the number of lines yourself, but it is 25 that applies. However, you can of course change the coin value and bet level. All in all, you can bet between €0.25 and €125 per spin, so finding a suitable level is no problem.

In the game you can win up to 250,000 coins. In real money, this corresponds to 125,000 euros, which at today's exchange rate will be about 1.07 million New Zealand dollar. Not bad! The game offers a lot of innovative, submarine-related features such as Echo Wilds and Echo Bonus radar systems that reveal hidden wins. The bonus game allows you to sink ships with long-range missiles and can offer really nice winnings.

Symbols and functions

The Wild symbol in Silent Run is represented by a red light. Just as we are used to, wilds can substitute for other symbols, thus ensuring that you get more and bigger winning combinations. In Silent Run, however, there is an additional wild feature called ”Echo Wild”. These are designed like a red radar, and when you get one on any reel, it scans all reels for hidden wild symbols. This way, your wild chances will be even better.

Silent Run also offers an integrated bonus game. This is activated by getting a green radar symbol on reel 3 – not to be confused with the red radar symbol representing Echo Wilds. When you receive such a symbol, a radar is sent out over the reels to find hidden torpedoes. The number of torpedoes hidden is between 2 and 5, depending on your luck. Once you have your torpedoes, you move on to the bonus game itself. Use torpedoes to shoot down enemy ships. Each ship has a certain value, and each torpedo has its own multiplier, so the winnings you can get per ship sunk vary greatly.

Silent Run is a welcome addition to NetEnt's stable of top-notch machines and we dare say that anyone with the slightest interest in World War II will be a little extra excited about the game's lovely design and layout. At the same time, it is a relatively easy game to get into, which ensures that it should also appeal to other players. In any case, submarine life has never felt so exciting as now – take the opportunity to audition and you will quickly see what we are talking about.

Summary

Silent Run is the perfect game for those who like that dark, slightly mysterious atmosphere we recognize from submarine films. With the opportunity to win up to €125,000, original wild symbols and a well-made Bonus Game, this is a welcome addition from NetEnt. The only thing we can miss is some kind of proper freespin feature, otherwise this is really good. If you want to try another underwater-themed slot machine, we can recommend Creature From The Black Lagoon from Netent.
