Dark Summoning — RTP, volatility and max win

Hacksaw Gaming frames Dark Summoning as a dark demon summoning among insects, birds and a pyramid, washed in blue and red. Winning symbols vanish in cascades, new ones drop in, and wilds can bring multipliers along.

Dark Summoning came out on November 27, 2023. The 6×5 grid is a large one with 24 paylines; each spin costs between €0.10 and €100. An optional bonus bet and a bonus buy are part of the package, and the horror backdrop stays dark throughout.

Dark Summoning pays on 24 paylines across its 6×5 grid. When a win lands, the symbols involved disappear, the rest slide down and new symbols fill the gaps. As long as fresh wins keep forming, the cascade carries on within the same spin. Wilds fill gaps in a line.

In the base game Dark Summoning drops extra wilds onto the grid at random, and wilds can carry a multiplier that boosts the win on their line. A random multiplier can also strike without warning.

Scatters and bonus icons open the free spins, where a dedicated free spins multiplier applies to wins. The bonus bet costs more per spin, while buying the feature skips ahead to the free spins.

In Dark Summoning wins keep rolling as a cascade while new hits drop in; other Inferno titles that play with cascades are listed under inferno slots with cascading reels.

RTP 94.34%, lower than 82% of the 400 Inferno slots. Background: how RTP works on a slot. Volatility Medium-high, like 14 of the 114 slots in the Demon theme. Background: what slot volatility means. Max win 10,666× (€1,066,600 at the highest stake). Background: what max win means on a slot. Hit frequency 29%: roughly one spin in 3 wins.

The 10,666× cap outranks 82% of the collection, while the 94.34% return is on the low side.

Medium-high volatility works on two levels: given the 29% hit frequency, about one spin in three pays, but the big swings only come when multiplier wilds and the free spins multiplier line up.

Dark Summoning is offered at more than one return level, and even the highest one is low; how far the levels of other Inferno slots reach is shown on the RTP of inferno slots page.
