Voodoo Pokie Review
There are many strange and unusual elements to Endorphina’s new Voodoo pokie machine, not least the extra “o” in the title of the game, which we’re sure you will have noticed.
The pokie can see players able to wager on some very spooky and mysterious reels, with the imagery present on them nothing short of nightmarish. Voodoo contains all your classic voodoo symbols, such as pincushion dolls, cobwebbed high playing cards (which is a particularly nice touch), as well as voodoo practitioners themselves.
The good thing about the design of the Voodoo pokie is that it is appropriate no matter what time of the year it is. Endorphina have tried hard to ensure that Voodoo is not regarded as another simplistic Halloween themed pokie.
How to play
Voodoo offers players the chance to bet on a total of 10 paylines over its 5 reels, and you can alter those lines by selecting the lines button from below the reels.
Players can also choose the value of their coins by selecting the coin button in the top right-hand side of the screen. Coin denominations range from $0.01 up to $1, and players can stake up to 10 coins per line. Voodoo contains a floor bet of just $0.01 per line per spin. It also contains a ceiling bet which is fixed at $100.00 per spin.

Features
Wild and scatter symbols: Endorphina has chosen to combine their wilds and scatters into one symbol in this game. This is great news, since its cuts down the number of symbols which appear on the reels of the game, boosting your chances of landing wins.
These symbols appear as the voodoo priest, and they can substitute for all other icons in the game. They are the best-paying icons in the pokie.
Free spins bonus: Land 3 or more of these scatter wilds anywhere on the reels, and you can trigger the free games bonus.
Players can start the bonus round with a total of 10 free games under their belt. During the bonus round, all symbols which appear in winning combinations can expand to cover three positions on the reels. This can see you pocket impressive big wins via stacked icons.
Maximum pay-outs
As we’ve mentioned, the best-paying symbols in this pokie are the wild scatter icons. When playing with the maximum wager, players can win a non-progressive jackpot which is worth as much as 20,000 coins in total by landing 5 such symbols on any active payline.
When playing with the minimum wager, players can still pocket wins worth 200 coins with the same combination appearing on a single payline.
Summary
Voodoo is an expertly designed pokie. Alright, so its features – as far as they go – may not be out of this world. They may not be original, but they are rewarding. We love the idea of combining scatters and wilds since they allow you to win more frequently.
We are also fans of the broad wagering range and the theme which ensures that Voodoo doesn’t limit itself to being a Halloween only pokie. There are a few voodoo themed video pokies out there on the net, but Endorphina’s Voodoo is easily one of the best of them, and well worth a look.
