Play’n GO have another smash hit on their hands as they give this Black Mamba mobile slot the star treatment and those 5×5 grids we love.
We’re not going to lie, we’d not heard about the Black Mamba band before we started researching this slot game review. However, the contemporary rock flowing through every spin of these reels is fun and certainly easier on the ears than the hard metal in the Sabaton slot game.
With spotlights shining down on a 5×5 grid slots and speakers booming every sound, this Music themed game feels authentic, both to the type of music and to the band.
If you’re not a fan, we’d still recommend you turn off the sound, get some classical on, and take a few spins. Why? How about 5,000 times your bet max win?
The problem with a lot of very volatile slot games is that they can feel a little slow – lots of dead spins, with nothing much happening. Frustrating.
Not so here with this Black Mamba slot machine as you never seem to go more than 5 or 10 spins without one of the band members popping in and giving their own rift to the game.
Alexandra may destroy any two sets of symbols, Cecilia may add up to 2 random wilds. Fred transforms symbols into better-paid ones, whilst Martina destroys whole rows and leaves a 2x multiplier behind. It’s exciting.
In order to get those 5,000 times your bet max win, you are probably going to need to clear the board of symbols. How? Well, like in the Energoonz mobile slot, every win will make those sets of symbols disappear.
You get a win by matching 3 or more symbols along any horizontal or vertical line – so not quite like the clusters in (say) the Viking Runecraft slot.
It’s harder than you think and requires a succession of wins that increases the multipliers enough for those symbols to be worth more than just your bet. And that’s the key her: the multipliers.
Getting that avalanche of wins isn’t easy. Of course, it isn’t. Getting more than 2 or 3 successive wins in this Black Mamba slot will take time and patience – that’s why this is a risky game to play.
But at least you have four companions willing to rock out to keep you company, and once you hit the free spins or catch a concert, you’ll wonder why you ever played on the Guns n Roses video slot before.

Cluster Pays and Exploding Symbols: Wins of 3 or more symbol in a row, whether horizontal or vertical, will create a win. Those symbols will explode and no more symbols will come tumbling down, unlike Avalanching Reels, but a multiplier does increase with every drop.
Wilds: When a win is made using band member symbols you get a 2x wild Martina Symbol. When a win is made using any other symbol, you just get a wild.
Solos: Activated on any random non-winning spin in the base game, one of the four stars may trigger any one set of bonus features:
Concert: Charge the meter with a 4-6 symbols of Alexandra, Cecilia and Fred to start a concert. Each of the four members then take turn performing each of their solo features. 4 simple gives you spin with all the features, 6 gives you a spin with the multiplier still in place
Free Spins: If you manage to clear the whole grid you trigger 8 free spins. You then get two of the member on the side of the reels. The active band member plays his or her solo on each non-winning spin, but Martina plays it on every spin.
The Free Spins can be extended by charging up the on-screen meter, with the same rules as above. If you overcharge it by 6 symbols you'll get 4 spins, and 4-5 charges award 2. The concert can be activated during Free Spins and if you clear the full grid during the free spins and you'll get 50x your total bet.
The Black Mamba slot game is fun and you don't need to know the rock band in order to enjoy this wonderfully themed game.
Don't let the quick easy win's fool you though, this game is as volatile as the tunes you'll hear in the background, full of surprises and features.
The fact that each and member gets their time to shine helps, though we would have loved to see that multiplier put to good use or at least see it rise beyond 3x or 4x more than once every 100 spins.
A little frustrating at times, but once you start rocking out to this concent, you'll find it as if not more compelling as any Ozzy Osbourne or Jimi Hendrix slot concert.
