Jean-Claude Van Damme was one of the premier martial arts action heroes of the 1980s and 1990s; Bloodsport was one of his iconic films and this tale of a fight-to-the-death tournament in Hong Kong has now made it to the spinning reels in this online slot from Skywind which tempts players which loads of themed bonus features and two progressive jackpots.
Bloodsport is a five reel slot with eleven rows and eighty eight fixed paylines; behind those lofty reels Frank Dux (Van Damme) faces off against Chong Li (Bolo Yeung). Rows five, six and seven (where the lit up blood spatters are) is the ‘Fight Zone’.
The five standard symbols are all the main characters from the movie including Li, Pumola, Sadio Hossein, Paco and Ray Jackson; Frank Dux is wild, the blood spatter and the Dim Mak are the scatter symbols.
Bloodsport Bonus Features
Dim Mak Bonus
Landing at least three of the Dim Mak scatter symbols anywhere in view will award this picking game in which you can work your way up through three levels with maximum prizes of 1500x the stake in level one, 2500x in level two and 5000x in level three. ‘Advance’ will move out to the next level and ‘Exit’ ends the round.
Big Time Fight Wheel
This is triggered by landing fifteen blood spatters in the Fight Zone or by reaching the end of the Dim Mak bonus successfully; you’ll now get to spin the Big Time Fight Wheel which will award one of the following features:
- Dux Bucks – awards up to three spins in which you’re looking for various symbols to land in the Fight Zone which can result in one of the jackpot form progressive jackpot prizes or a stake multiplier of up to 50,000x. You can collect the prize or spin again for a better prize up to three times.
- Kumite Free Spins – awards fifteen free spins in which your task is to fill the Blood Meter by landing blood scatters (fills up one section) or ‘KIAI!’ symbols which can fill up to twenty five sections. When the blood count reaches 100 Sadiq Hossein becomes wild, at 125 Pumola becomes wild, at 150 Paco becomes wild, at 175 Ray Jackson is wild and at 200 Chong Li is wild. If you can reach 300 then all KIAI! and blood symbols in the Fight Zone act as wilds. Three Kumite scatters awards five more spins.
- Kanata Free Spins – awards five free spins with any +1 symbols in the Fight Zone increasing the win multiplier by 1x; two Katana symbols awards five extra spins.
Bloodsport Playing Tips
A close inspection of the paytable will reveal that there’s an optimal strategy for playing the Dux Bucks feature:
- Fight Spin One – take the win if the prize is at least 13,600x the stake.
- Fight Spin Two – take the win if the prize is at least 10,950x the stake.
Verdict
Bloodsport is great fun and a excellent tribute to JCVD and his action movies which kept us entertained when we were younger; the characters will be instantly recognisable to any fans of the movie and this only adds to the enjoyment of a slot which promises so much in the way of features and prizes.
