How To Play Baron Samedi Mobile Slot
The king of Voodoo welcomes you to his parlour where only the Tarot cards will decipher your fate – will you get the riches you deserve in this Baron Samedi mobile slot? Or befall the curse of the dead?
With a gorgeous Haitian gothic look and dark magic seeping from every corner of this Baron Samedi slot, our inner 14-year-old goth fell in love with the look of this Yggdrasil phone game.
With a shot of rum and cigar in one corner, a dead skull, candle and dice in the other, this brings the myth of the Voodoo king of the dead onto your mobile casino screen in a way that is certainly fun.
Add a generous 97% return to player rate and a low minimum bet of 0.25 a spin, and what could possibly stop you from playing?
It feels more complicated than it looks…. and it looks complicated
As soon as you load up the mobile or online slot you are told that you’ve been given 8- cards to add to your collection. What collection? What cards?
The tarot cards of course. When we said that these will define your fate, we weren’t kidding – each card represents a different feature, giving you stacked symbols, multipliers, wild reels, extra wilds, mystery symbols and so many more combinations.
It’s a little overwhelming, but don’t panic. Because at heart you can ignore all of that and just focus on the spin at hand, much like their multi-bonus slot Jungle Books.
Namely because the card collection bonus feature hits once every 200/500 spins at best, so it’s really just a fun way to see all the features available, rather than something to look forward to.
The good news is that, as long as you play this Baron Samedi online slot at the same casino, all your cards will be saved between gameplay.
You get to experience all the Baron Samedi slot bonus combinations anyway
2 scatters will trigger a Voodoo respin. This will make the baron turn 3 tarot cards from the pack of 36 that you are meant to be collecting.
In that one spin, you get those 3 features: maybe a super stacked symbol, with a wild reel and a 10x multiplier? Who knows, only the cards will tell.
The free spins are even more intense as you get three different cards on every spin and you just don’t know what you are going to get! It’s fun, it’s wonderful, and it’s magical.
Just don’t get too bogged down in the strength and cards, enjoy the spins and the surprises at every corner… and every once in a while, enjoying that card collection as it gets you 3 spins with even one feature front and centre – more satisfying than the Wolf Hunter slot features that’s for sure.
This Baron Samedi slot is full of dark magic that, once you get used to the gameplay, you’ll appreciate if only because you’ll rarely know what’s around the next corner.

Baron Samedi Bonus Features
Wilds: The Voodoo priestess is the wild symbol and will replace any other on any of the 25 paylines to create a win.
Voodoo Respin: Landing two scatters will trigger one re-spin with three Tarot cards showing. Each Tarot card has it's own individual special power that it adds to the reel after the symbols have settled from the win.
Free Spins: Catch 3, 4 or 5 bonus scatter symbols and you'll trigger 7, 12, or 15 free spins. During every single spin, 3 new cards are dealt, giving you an endless possibility of combinations. (see card collection and features below).
Card Collection Free Spins: Complete a card collection (usually 50 - 10 cards) and you'll get 3 extra spins with that card locked in the first card position for all spins, with two additional cards being drawn each time.
How the Card Feature and the Collection Works: When you load up the game for the first time you'll automatically receive: 40 Mystery Reel cards (I), 20 5-of-a-kind cards (I), 10 Best Wild Position cards (I), 5 Wild Reel cards (III), 3 Super Stacked cards (IV) and 1 Multiplier card (IV) to start their collection.
There are a total of 36 different cards you can collect by triggering the free spins or Voodoo re-spin. Once a collection is complete you get the 3 extra spins.
Cards have different strengths and depending on their strength you need to collect more or less:
- Strength I (weakest) - 50 cards to fill the collection
- Strength II - 40 cards to fill the collection
- Strength III - 20 cards to fill the collection
- Strength IV (strongest) - 10 cards to fill the collection
Why do you have less to collect of the strongest cards? Simply because they are rarer.
There are 9 different features you can trigger - within each category you have different strength cards.
So, for example, in the 5 cards with super stacked symbols, strength one gives you super stacks with the green Voodoo doll, whilst strength 4 gives you super stacked symbols with the wild.
- 4 Cards will give you super stacked symbols on the reel
- 4 Cards will add 3 to 9 mystery symbols to the reels
- 4 Cards will add stacks of mystery symbols to the whole of 1 to 4 reels
- 4 Cards will add a multiplier from 2x, to 3x, to 5x, to x10 on a win in that spin
- 4 Cards will transform symbols into higher paying ones on the paytable
- 4 Cards will give you guaranteed 5 of a kind wins with different value symbols
- 4 Cards will add 2 to 8 random wilds to the reels
- 4 Cards will add 1 to 5 wilds to the best position or adjacent to each other
- 4 Cards will turn different reels wild, with up to 3 wild reels.
