Black Mamba is the fourth in a series of rock band themed slots developed by Play'n GO - the other 4️⃣ ones being House of Doom, Sabaton, and Demon. As was kindly pointed out in the comment section of the Demon 4️⃣ review by rock artist Marielle Tengström, much of our criticism that time around stemmed from ignorance of the classic rock 4️⃣ scene. Safe to say, we learned a lot from her input and made a promise to ourselves to do better 4️⃣ research going forward.
If Demon was a niche slot, Black Mamba is even more so. Not in terms of gameplay, it's 4️⃣ a rather typical Play'n GO grid slot offering as you will see, but in terms of the theme. So, who 4️⃣ are Black Mamba then? Well, turning to Wikipedia didn't make us much wiser. All that came up was an article 4️⃣ about a Ugandan anti-terrorist organisation going by the same name - great guys we're sure, but not what we were 4️⃣ looking for. Going by their Spotify bio, Black Mamba is an Italian four-piece hard rock band made up of vocalist 4️⃣ Martina Cori, bassist Cecilia Nappo, guitarist Alexandra Maiolo, and drummer Fred Maragoni. Being a relatively small and unknown band, it 4️⃣ comes off as a bit of a strange choice for a branded slot. At the same time, it gives us 4️⃣ a chance to discover new music while also helping struggling bands with some publicity.
On the production side of things, you 4️⃣ can expect loud music, lots of moving parts and blinking lights vying for your attention. A rock club serves as 4️⃣ the setting for the game with the actual reels being positioned on a stage. Instead of Greek gods, as is 4️⃣ the case in Rise of Olympus, you'll see one of the band members standing next to the reels to indicate 4️⃣ the active feature. When it comes to symbols, the lower value ones are represented by various music-related items such as 4️⃣ microphones, headphones, guitar picks, and drumsticks with cymbals. More rewarding are the band members - Alexandra, Cecilia, Fred of which 4️⃣ 5 in a cluster will give you 5 times your stake. Any combination of those three symbols will give you 4️⃣ 3 times your stake.
There are also two wild symbols included in the game - a regular wild which comes in 4️⃣ the form of the band logo, and a 2x wild which is represented by vocalist Martina Cori. Land a combination 4️⃣ of 5 of her and you'll win 50 times your stake. Highly volatile, you can play the Black Mamba slot 4️⃣ across all devices from 0.20 to €/$100 per spin.
