Developer 4ThePlayer returns to the Himalayas with its 90K Yeti Gigablox slot, which makes bigger nearly every single aspect of the original9K Yetislot. Produced in conjunction with Yggdrasil, the 90K Yeti slot is built on the Gigablox engine, and like in the previous release, the number in the title indicates the max win. Aside from flashy reel mechanics, players will benefit from loads of features, including 3 different modifiers and a Free Spins bonus game.
The outer look hasn’t changed a lot since the original release, apart from the enlarged6x6 reel canvasproducing up to46,656 ways to playon each spin. The same image of the majestic Himalayas serves as the backdrop to the grid, and the reels are made up of familiar symbols that we’ve seen in 9K Yeti. Anyway, 4ThePlayer has buffed the graphics a bit, and the game now looks more pleasing to the eye. The friendly Yeti who’s the game’s jovial host is sitting on the left, puffing mostly but one in a while giving you his battle cry to award a random reel modifier and produce a win. Cutie indeed.
Players drop in by setting bets from£0.1 to £10, which is quite a half of a standard betting range though. Thevolatility is high, or rather extreme as rated by the developer, but the RTP is well below average at95.5%. Anyway, wins should occur roughly in 1 out of 4.5 spins according to thehit rate of 22.22%. Speaking of wins, the potential is surely one of the main reasons why players might feel drawn to spin the reels on 90K Yeti Gigablox, as the maximum win is a staggering90,000x the stake.
As alluded to earlier, the paytable remained mostly the same, and it’s made up of 12 regular symbols that are split into three categories. On the lower side, we see classic A-10 royals, which are worth0.8x your betfor 6-of-a-kind, while medium value symbols include in ascending order ropes, picks, and tents that pay1.2x the stake. Next are three climbers and a yeti, and these are worth from2.4x to 4.8xfor 6 symbols on a line. There’s also aSnow Bloxsymbol, though, it’s a dead symbol, which does nothing but blocks the wins. Finally, Mount Everest is Wild, and it appears anywhere on the reels and substitutes for any other regular symbol to help you achieve payouts.
Look out for footprint Scatter symbols since landing 5 or more instances anywhere in view awards theFree Spinsfeature. The number of spins given is equal to the number of triggering Scatters, and you get also get +1 additional spin for each Scatter symbol that lands during the free games, up to 36. During the bonus game, allSnow Blox symbols are removedfrom the reels, whileSnowstorm and Giga Summon modifiers have a greater chance to trigger, and at least one is guaranteed.
Players outside of the UK can use theBuy Featureto immediately access thefree games with 5, 10, or 15 spinsfor the cost of60x, 120x, or 240x the stakerespectively, or trigger aGiga Summon Spinwhere either4x4, 5×5, or 6×6 Gigablox reelis guaranteed, which costs150x your bet.
With everything beefed up, the sequel couldn’t benefit any better. 4ThePlayer kept the original DNA in terms of appearance but enhanced the visuals to make it more appealing, while the gameplay and math have been bumped up significantly. The three modifiers can result in solid prizes in the base game, though the action amplifies in the Free Spins, where it’s now possible to win a mouth-watering 90,000x payout. That was hit in 100,000,000 simulated rounds, and it’s surely a thing worth playing for.
