Blueprint Gaming has recently introduced a fresh take on the cult classic film from the 1980s, The Lost Boys, through its latest release. The game features an enticing bonus round and cash rewards, accompanied by the studio’s innovative new jackpot mechanic.
Santa Carla amusement park
Set against the backdrop of the Santa Carla amusement park, the game takes place on a 5×3 grid where the familiar characters from the film appear alongside two distinct cash collect symbols and fang-themed bonus symbols.
Players can expect various cash-collecting mechanics during gameplay. Landing a cash collect symbol on the rightmost reel triggers the collection of all Mooncash symbols on the screen. Additionally, the respin collect feature initiates a respin, gathering the values of any cash symbols that appear.
Boost collect feature
The boost collect feature enhances the value of cash symbols by up to 5 times the initial bet before collecting them, while the super collect symbol collects all cash symbols in view with a potential multiplier of up to 5 times.
Free spins
By landing three fang-themed scatter symbols, players activate the bonus feature, receiving 10 free spins. Throughout this round, the cash collect feature remains active, and accumulating collect symbols can grant additional free spins and multipliers of up to 10 times.
Players may encounter various modifiers during spins, such as the Blood Lust feature, which randomly adds wild symbols to the grid, and the One of Us feature, which replaces low-value symbols with winning icons.
Rapid Fire jackpots
Moreover, The Lost Boys introduces Blueprint Gaming’s new networked jackpot system, Rapid Fire Jackpots. Triggering the rapid fire wheel by landing five rapid fire symbols offers stake multiplier wins ranging from 5 times to 1,000 times, or a chance to win one of five progressive pots, from mini to mega king.
This release is part of Blueprint Gaming’s summer slot lineup, showcasing the studio’s expertise in transforming popular cinema and pop culture themes into engaging slot experiences. The Lost Boys joins a portfolio of player-favourite titles like Ted, The Goonies, and Rick and Morty, to name a few.
Jo Purvis, director of marketing, PR and events at Blueprint Gaming, said:

The Lost Boys (Rapid Fire) slot is an artwork version of the 1987 film release, where horror and vampires prevail. There's 10 lines here over 5 reels of 3 rows with the game logo best 5-of-a-kind at a scary 100x bet, down to 5x for the J. Symbols can be stacked including the Wilds and bonus scatters can land only on the middle three reels. You have a cash collect too whereby cash coins can land on reels 1-4 and if a collect symbol lands on 5 you get the aggregated values. There are different ones, like a respin collect which collects the cash then respins the other reels for more, a super will collect values multiple times and finally a boost increases the collected cash values. There's also 4 modifiers in the game: High Stakes which adds random cash symbols to reels, Bonus Boost adds more scatters to the reels, Blood Lust adds Wilds and One of Us takes symbols away and drops new ones down. The free games are probably familiar by now - 10 spins where any collect symbol in view takes the cash values.
