Theme and Storyline
Release the Kraken takes its title from a line in the 1981 Ray Harryhausen movie: Clash Of The 🛡 Titans. The slot appears to have little to no interest in the movie beyond the borrowed line. Nor does it 🛡 seem like the makers knew exactly what a kraken is.
Instead, what you get is a by the numbers undersea treasure 🛡 hunt slot. With some vibes from Finding Nemo and a few from Pirates of the Caribbean. Not a kraken in 🛡 sight.
It remains a fun little setting though, with some cute characters and fun design features.
5 of a kind win with 🛡 top paying symbol of the game
