Blood Suckers

Blood Suckers is a NetEnt classic that Kiwi pokies fans return to for one simple reason: it carries one of the highest RTPs in the whole online slot catalogue. Set in a shadowy castle full of coffins, garlic and hungry vampires, this gothic horror pokie has been a favourite in New Zealand for years. You can spin it in NZD at online casinos or try the free demo on this page with no account needed. If you search for a Blood Suckers slot or check its RTP before playing, this is the game people mean.

How Blood Suckers plays

Blood Suckers runs on a 5 reel, 3 row layout with 25 fixed paylines, so wins land left to right across a compact grid. The vampire hunter acts as the wild, standing in for regular symbols to complete lines, while the goblet scatter pays from two or more anywhere on the reels. Land enough scatters and you trigger the free spins round, where every win is multiplied by three for the duration of the feature, and the round can retrigger if more scatters appear. The signature extra is the Vampire Slaying Bonus Game: line up the coffin bonus symbols and you move to a second screen where you hammer wooden stakes into coffins to slay vampires and reveal cash prizes, one coffin at a time.

Blood Suckers RTP, volatility and max win

The headline number is the RTP of 98.00%, which is why Blood Suckers is so often named among the most generous NetEnt titles. It is a low volatility pokie, meaning wins tend to arrive frequently in smaller amounts rather than in rare big hits, which keeps sessions steady and your balance ticking along. The most you can win is 900 times your stake in a single paid spin. That top figure is modest next to some modern high volatility slots, but the trade off is the consistency and the very high theoretical return that make this game a long standing favourite.

Playing Blood Suckers in New Zealand

You will find Blood Suckers at the offshore-licensed online casinos that serve New Zealand players, and the casinos listed on this page offer it in NZD. New Zealand does not yet have its own licensed online casino market: the DIA's Online Casino Gambling Act is due to bring domestic licensing from December 2026, so until then Kiwis play at casinos licensed abroad. The free demo above lets you spin Blood Suckers with no deposit and no sign up, which is a good way to see the free spins and bonus game before you play for real money.

Is Blood Suckers worth playing?

If you like frequent, steady wins and value a high RTP over the chance of a single huge payout, Blood Suckers remains one of the safest picks in the NetEnt library, and its 2009 vintage has not dented its appeal. Newer players like it because the low volatility makes a bankroll last, while veterans appreciate the near-98% return. Whatever you play, treat it as entertainment and set your own limits.
