This game has a bright and attractive carnival game theme, with the high-paying icons being balloons of different colours. This slot features a brand new reel mechanic, where the reels spin both up and down. It offers players a wide range of bets from 0.10 up to 20 credits per spin. This is a highly volatile game, and the maximum win potential is 14,407x your stake in the base game. In the bonus spins feature, the maximum win potential goes up to 66,960x your stake.
What Pop is All About
In this game, the low-paying icons are the 9 to Ace royals. Unusually, the royals only payout when four land in a row across the reels. The higher-paying icons in this Pop slot are the green, blue, red and purple balloons. Landing 3 or 4 in a row will form a win. In addition, the rainbow-coloured balloon is wild. This can substitute for all other symbols except the scatter. The gold BTG coin is the scatter symbol. Landing three of these on the reels triggers bonus spins, the main bonus feature. However, there are some additional features to be found in the base game. Landing a winning combination triggers the Reaction feature, which continues until no new winning combinations land. Multipliers are also in play during both the base game and the bonus spins.The Reactions feature
All winning combinations run from left to right across the reels. Whenever a winning combination lands on the reels, the symbols that make up that win “pop” are removed. After this explosion, balloon icons float gently up from the bottom of the screen to fill those empty spaces. In this way, further winning combinations can be created. Even better, if any of the 9 to Ace symbols are part of the win, when they pop they are only replaced by the higher-paying balloon symbols or by the scatter symbol. The Reactions continue until no further winning combinations occur. Landing the rainbow balloon wild will increase the chances of creating a winning combination as it substitutes for other symbols. In addition, these rainbow balloon wilds can randomly carry a multiplier.The Bonus Spins Feature
Landing at least three of the gold BTG scatter symbols on the reels triggers this feature and awards you 12 bonus spins. During these bonus spins, each of the 16 positions on the reels can hold a multiplier. All start at 1x, apart from the scatters, which have a 2x, 3x or 4x multiplier, decided at random. Any multipliers awarded remain in place throughout the bonus spins. When a winning combination involving balloons or wilds lands, a 2x, 3x or 4x multiplier is added to one or more of those winning positions. With each win, new positions can acquire multipliers. In addition, these bonus spins can be re-triggered: landing another three scatters will award you a further three bonus spins.The Rainbow Wild Feature
Most slot games have a wild symbol and this Pop slot is no exception. In this game, the rainbow coloured balloon is the wild. However, it will only appear on the second, third and fourth reels. In the base game, this rainbow wild can help make winning combinations by substituting for other symbols. It can also carry a 2x, 3x or 4x multiplier. If one or more of these multiplier wild symbols form part of a winning combination, the win amount increases by those multiplier values. In the bonus spins feature, the rainbow balloon wild can also substitute for other symbols to create winning combinations. When this happens, a multiplier may, or may not, be added. If added, it remains sticky in that winning position for the duration of the bonus spins.Pop: Conclusion
