Eye of the Kraken Slot Game Review
The Eye of the Kraken slot game is derived from the mythological creature of the Icelandic sagas of some eight hundred years ago.
The Kraken tales have, however, changed over the years with the story now regarded as one of a giant squid which is big enough to engulf ships and drag them to the bottom of the ocean.
Eye of the Kraken is powered by Play ‘n Go and the theme on this fantastic creature does well to bring out the best features of the game.
The Eye of the Kraken is a 3 reel slot with 8 paylines which are intermingled in horizontal, vertical and diagonal lines.
The game’s action takes place underneath the water.
