Voodoo is as fascinating as it can be creepy. It’s probably because people, myself included, don’t really know what it is and how it works, which is why it’s often referred to as witchcraft. I’m sure it might have been a bit “Westerners”, but one thing I have to give Bokors (yes, I looked it up) and Vodouisants credit for is an epic fashion sense!
I’m telling you, if you haven’t decided on a Halloween costume yet, keep reading because I might have just found mine.
BGaming Brings Back Voodoo
As far as Voodoo’s influence on slots, one of the better ones is Beheaded by Nolimit City. I’m a fan of the theme which is why I was happy to see BGaming dropping one recently called ‘Voodoo People’. Please don’t confuse it with the Village People because it is way different.
We’re about to step into the realm of mystery and dark magic, where the unimaginable becomes reality. Priest Baron Fortune is in charge and with Voodoo Respins, Soul-snatching Multipliers and lord knows what else. I’m curious to see what kind of power Voodoo People is packing.
So, get your needles out and let’s start sticking them into this gris-gris doll of a slot as I’ll break it down for you!
Voodoo People looks great
Let the Magic Begin
There’s no doubt this is a great looking slot. Voodoo People is filled with crisp, detailed symbols and I also approve of the color palette BGaming decided on. No matter the symbols, the logo and overall look, the one stealing the show is of course the Bokor called Baron Fortune on the right!
This guy looks super cool and I don’t know a lot of people that could pull off a feathered look like that but damn it, I want one! I mentioned it earlier but I’ll say it again, I’m seriously considering this for Halloween.
Voodoo People highest paid symbols
As far as symbols go, the above image shows the highest paid ones and it was expected for a gris-gris doll to be the most valued. Also, keep an eye on the Baron’s hands during the play and you will see how he’s shuffling the cards he’s holding.

Triple scatters gets the job done
Voodoo People Free Spins
Now it’s time to go through the various features and why not jump straight into Free Spins. Just like in most cases it takes 3 scatters to get things going. The scatter symbol is a wooden mask with bright green eyes that are quite mesmerizing.
8 Free Spins coming right up
The scatters will appear on reels 1-3-5 and when all three of them land, 8 Free Spins will be yours.
What does the crystal ball show?
The change of scenery is nice and you can see it in the above screenshot. During Free Spins, you’ll see the blue/green mist floating across the floor while Baron Fortune sits with his crystal ball in the background.
Total Free Spins Win
All the lowest paying symbols are removed during Free Spins but it didn’t make much of a difference for me. Maybe I’ve messed with the wrong spirits because Priest Fortune made sure I left with just over €3.
Voodoo Respin
Unlock Voodoo Respins
BGaming knows how to get my approval because they’ve made sure to throw in another bonus game. This one goes under the name Voodoo Respins and is basically a Hold ‘n Win type of game.
6 Green Voodoo symbols will trigger the Respins
The way to unlock them is by landing 6 or more of the green Voodoo symbol. When that’s done, you’ll get your classic 3 spins that will reset every time you land another symbol.
Each Voodoo symbol comes with a certain value and the possibilities are anywhere from 1x up to 20x your bet.
Land as many symbols as possible
How to Get an Extra Multiplier
While you’re playing Voodoo Respins, you want to land as many symbols as possible of course but check this out. If you can fill an entire row or column, you’ll get a random multiplier.
The multiplier will be applied to the sum of your Voodoo symbols for that particular line or column. This multiplier can be as big as 100x!
Another failed bonus round
Wow, after my unsuccessful Free Spins round, I thought for sure I would have a much better run in the Voodoo Respin game. Wrong! A sad €2.40 was all I managed to pocket and I started to realize that perhaps Voodoo just isn’t for me.
Get the Grand Jackpot
There’s a Grand Jackpot in Play
You should know that if you can manage to fill up the entire grid, you will be able to get your hands on the Grand Jackpot. How much is it worth? A pretty good 1,000x your bet will be all yours.
Keep the chance button switched on
Increase Your Chances by 2.5x
In the bottom left corner of the screen you’ll see the Chance 2.5x switch. This will increase your chances of triggering either Free Spins or the Voodoo Respin feature. It will slightly increase your bet size as well but to me it’s worth it to always have it switched on.
Keep in mind that you won’t be able to reach the Buy Bonus feature if it’s active.
The Buy Bonus feature
Voodoo People Buy Bonus
I appreciate providers giving you the option of paying for Free Spins via the Buy Bonus feature. You’ll find it on the left hand side and it will let you pick either Free Spins or the Voodoo Respins.
Paying the requested amount will guarantee the feature being triggered in your next spin. The asking price is 50x for Free Spins and 80x for Voodoo Respins.
It’s time to play
Voodoo People – Pass or Play?
As soon as I laid eyes on Baron Fortune I was hoping Voodoo People was a slot that I could recommend to you guys. Excellent graphics and a cool Voodoo theme goes a long way and add to that two different bonus rounds, Buy Bonus and the Chance 2.5x option? I tip my imaginary hat to BGaming for this release.
Ok, if I’m honest I can’t say the game blew me away in any way but it’s definitely worth your time to play.
I won’t hesitate to revisit Voodoo People but my main reason for doing so would be to get my revenge on both bonus rounds. Two failed attempts is one too many and I’m not ready to give up on Voodoo just yet. Especially with a fashion sense like Baron Fortune!
If you’re looking for something fun and a different theme than what you’re used to seeing everyday… Voodoo People will be waiting for you. To be fair, Baron Fortune has probably already seen your arrival and success in his crystal ball
