The rumble of large planes flying overhead greets players to this online slot machine from Habanero Systems which celebrates the destructive squadrons which roamed the skies during the Second World War; it’s called Bombs Away and it offers players free spins and explosive wild bonuses.

Bombs Away is a five reel slot with three rows and fifty fixed paylines; those reels spin on some sort of radio apparatus against a backdrop of grey skies and bombers being prepped for their next mission.

There are six theme-related symbols and these include the shark-faced bomber, the tank, the soldier, the backpack, the hand grenade and the jeep; 10, J, Q, K and A make up the lower values.

The wild is an explosive ‘Wild’ which will substitute for all symbols to help create winning combinations except for the ‘girl-riding-a-bomb’ scatter symbol.

Bonus Features

Bomb Wilds

On any spin bombs may drop onto the reels, transforming into wild symbols which can then also change adjacent symbols wild.

 

Free Spins

Landing at least three of the girl/bomb scatter symbols anywhere in view will trigger this round and you’ll receive ten free spins. Unfortunately it’s not possible to win any more free spins from within this round but the good news is that Bomb Wilds are also active during this feature and even more of them will barrage the reels with the potential for some bigger wins.

Verdict

We’re never entirely sure about glorifying war with an online slot but Bombs Away certainly does the business in some style – the graphics seem somehow contemporary but high quality while the sound effects add some realistic authenticity to the gameplay. Bombs will drop onto the reels regularly to help the luckier players out with some big wins.
