Aliens is a game inspired by the iconic movie of the same name. Developed by NetEnt in collaboration with 20th Century Fox, the game was launched in 2014. Even though Aliens made its appearance to the market two years ago, it’s still worth playing because it has some of the most innovative bonus features ever created.
When you first start the game, you will be transported into space on-board a spaceship. The vessel will then land on a planet where the action takes place.
The game has 15 pay lines, 5 reels and 3 rows. Aliens has ten different bet levels. The minimum coin value is £0.01, and the maximum coin is £1, which gives you a max bet of £150 per spin. You can win up to 570,000 coins in this game. The game’s symbols are different aliens, and the red ones pay the most.
Bonus features
There are three bonus features in Aliens:
Level 1: The Search, takes place in the base game and consists of a progression though the alien activity meter. Each winning spin will bring you one step closer to completing this bonus level while each losing spin will deduct a symbol and a multiplier from your progression bar.
Level 2: The Encounter. Video games fans are in for a treat with this feature as it is a first-person shooter free spins game. In this chapter, you will walk through a tunnel infested by aliens and shoot them while making sure you don’t run out of ammo. Each spin will bring you a win with three matching symbols activated at random. After each spin, a mini-feature will be activated where you’ll have the chance to replenish your ammunition.
Level 3: The Hive, is the final stage of the bonus rounds and is located at the end of the tunnel in level 2. When you have reached The Hive, your objective is to destroy The Queen. The Queen’s health is displayed at the top of the reel and has four different levels with different win amounts. After each shot you fire at The Queen a random feature will be triggered, and will give you the chance to earn more ammo. If you are lucky, you can also kill The Queen with one single grenade.

Overall Verdict and Final Thoughts
NetEnt always delivers great games, and Aliens is no exception. The quality of the animations and graphics is simply mind-blowing but can be heavy to run, meaning players who have a slow internet connection or who are playing on a mobile device on a 3G internet connection would benefit from changing the graphics setting to low. Doing so will increase the game performance, and won’t affect the quality much.
