Atlantis Crush takes players on a journey to a mythical underwater city of Atlantis. The visuals depict a vibrant and colorful world beneath the ocean waves. An atmospheric soundtrack complements the underwater theme.
Gameplay Mechanics
The slot features a unique dual-reel system. The top two reels contain Block symbols, while the bottom three reels contain regular paying symbols and Wild symbols. Winning symbols trigger cascading reels, where winning symbols are removed from the grid and new symbols fall down to fill the empty spaces, potentially creating further wins.
Block Symbols
Block symbols come in various types, each offering a special effect when activated. These effects can be triggered by winning symbols on the reels below them or by the effects of other Block symbols. Here's a breakdown of some Block symbol types:
- Empty Block: Has no special effect.
- Destroyer Blocks (Horizontal, Vertical, Diagonal): Destroy symbols in their respective rows, columns, or diagonally.
- Bonus Block: Increases the Free Spin counter by the number displayed on the block.
- Multiplier Block: Increases the win multiplier for the current cascade. Possible values range from 2x to 500x.
- Gem Blocks (Fire, Water, Plant): Destroy all symbols of the corresponding element (fire, water, or plant) on the reels, and only symbols of that type appear in the following cascade.
Free Spins
Landing 3 or more Bonus Block symbols triggers Free Spins. The total number of Free Spins awarded is the sum of the values displayed on the activated Bonus Blocks. The win multiplier earned during the triggering spin carries over to the Free Spins and persists between spins. Additionally, any activated Bonus Block during Free Spins increases the Free Spin counter.
Super Free Spins
There's a chance to enter Super Free Spins after triggering regular Free Spins. During Super Free Spins, only Multiplier, Bonus, and Gem Blocks appear on the top reel, offering the potential for bigger wins with multipliers and symbol removal effects.
Wild Symbol
The Wild symbol substitutes for all regular paying symbols on the reels, helping players form winning combinations.
Scatter Symbol (Not Applicable)
Due to the scatter pays mechanic, Atlantis Crush doesn't utilize a Scatter symbol. Wins are formed by landing four or more matching symbols anywhere on the reels.
Other Features
- Destroy All Paying Symbols Feature: If all paying symbols are destroyed in a single cascade, the following cascade will consist only of the same symbol type.
- Destroy All Blocks Feature: Destroying all Block symbols in a single cascade triggers the appearance of only Multiplier, Bonus, and Gem Blocks for the remainder of the game round.
- Bonus Buy: Players can opt to purchase Free Spins or Super Free Spins for a set cost, bypassing the need to trigger them organically.
