Blockbusters
Blockbusters is an online scratchcard game at Bet365 Casino that will be greeted with absolute delight by any fan of the 1980’s television game show of the same name. The blockbusters game show, which was a big hit in the UK, was presented by Bob Holness and required contestants to answer questions in order to get from one side of the Blockbusters board to another. There are no questions involved in the online scratchcard version of the game, but there are plenty of other familiar references to the original show that fans will love. And for those of you who haven’t heard of Blockbusters until today, we can tell you that this online scratchcard is a superb game in its own right, so even newcomers will enjoy it.
When you launch the Blockbusters online scratchcard you will hear the familiar Blockbusters theme tune, a variation of which loops throughout the game. The scratchcard itself shows the main Blockbusters game board with a single contestant on the left and a team of two contestants on the right. A mascot sits in front of each contestant/team, as used to be the tradition on the television game show. You can change the mascots, which is a nice touch, but it has no bearing on the outcome so if you choose not to then you won’t be at any kind of disadvantage whatsoever.
As you would expect, the Blockbuster game board is central to the scratchcard game. It consists of nine hexagonal scratch panels arranged in a 3x3 grid format and your job is to scratch each of the panels to reveal the symbol hidden underneath. Symbols include the Blockbusters logo, a Hot Spot, mascots, a game show host and a Gold Run logo. Find three matching symbols after you have scratched all nine panels and you will win a cash prize – and you won’t have needed to answer a single question!
Each of the symbols used in the Blockbusters online scratchcard game is worth a different amount and you can see how much each symbol is worth by clicking on the Paytable button at the lower left of the screen. You set your stake by using arrows at the lower centre of the screen, and the more you stake, the more each symbol is worth, with the Blockbusters logo always giving the top prize.
Fans of the original Blockbusters television game show will obviously love this game, but as we said earlier, the game itself is entertaining (and potentially profitable) enough to appeal to everyone who plays online scratchcards. So why wait? Play Blockbusters today and your lucky mascot just might help you win a jackpot!
