Yggdrasil have teamed up once again with AvatarUX to create Tikipop, the tropical, Polynesian-inspired slot is the 5th title featuring the PopWins mechanic. With up to 33,614 ways to win, features include PopWins, multipliers, and free spins.
About TikiPop
TikiPop is available to play across all devices from 20p up to £50 per spin. With 5 reels the ways to win depend on how many symbols are on each reel, this can be anywhere between 486 up to 33,615. An average RTP sits at 96.1% so volatility is just about hitting the high end.Set deep within a dense jungle, dark reels are complete with brightly coloured symbols including basic royals, and five brightly coloured totem masks. The jewel-encrusted Tiki mask is the most lucrative, landing 5 in a combo pays 10x the total bet.
Gameplay
What makes TikiPop stand out from standard video slots is the PopWins mechanic which expands the reels after a winning combination. Each symbol in a winning combo ‘Pops’ and two symbols replace each one. As long as you land more winning combos the ‘Pops’ continue and more symbols are added, the reels expand, and the ways to win increase.To grab between 7 and 15 free spins you’ll need 3 or more scatters. Depending on the number of scatters you land, you’ll receive a payout of 2, 5, or 10x the total bet. Here the game area is larger and 5×5 symbols are now in play and each PopWin you get the multiplier gets a 1x boost after each one, the value is unlimited. As you create more wins in this feature the game window expands and does not reset, so if you manage to expand the reels fully the multiplier is now boosted 2x, and any retrigger awards 2 to 4 rounds.
Conclusion
TikiPop is a great addition to the PopWins series of titles developed by AvatarUX, exclusively for Yggdrasil. Although the slot does not come with a myriad of features, the PopWins and free spins provide plenty of action. During the free spins, the reels expand and extra multipliers contribute towards top payouts of up to 32,000x the total bet.
