HippoPop™ Free Slots in Demo » from AvatarUX

Anyone in the know or up to date with the latest goings on in the slot game world will know that AvatarUX’s PopWins mechanic is one of the most spoken about right now.

It features in the slot we’re checking out today, which is the sixth instalment in a collection of games that continues to expand, much like the game area, thanks to PopWins.

AvatarUX know what works now in terms of features, so in HippoPop, they have taken a different approach and dedicated more focus to the theme and design, and it’s worked a treat.

A lot of what players will see is Aztec-inspired but with modern visuals, and this is a strategy that has become synonymous with this studio in a good way.

Of course, if you want to take a trip to an Aztec jungle, it’s going to cost, but thankfully the betting range in HippoPop sees wagering begin at 20c per spin, with a max bet of €40 available.

The symbols that go towards forming winning combos are divided into four groups, with the likes of zebras, flamingos, cats and a hippo being the top payers.

There are 243 ways to win in the base game, but thanks to the PopWins system, that number can increase dramatically when winning combinations are found. And this is significant in terms of the winning potential, making it another appealing AvatarUX title.

Game Features

The aim of the game in HippoPop is for the rows to reach six high across the board. Not only will this see a win multiplier each time a new row is added, but it will eventually unlock the bonus game, which is a free spins feature.

While players will be given five free spins from the get-go, they don’t necessarily have to begin with five, but it will require some luck.

Punters can choose to gamble their free spins in the hope of collecting twelve. But, if the gamble doesn’t pay off, they will not get to continue with the feature at that moment in time.

It can be fun aiming to get enough rows to trigger the bonus game. But for some people, it can become quite tiresome. It’s something that AvatarUX considered, and it’s why they added a feature buy-in of 85x the bet, allowing players to go direct to the bonus game. It’s certainly a time saver.

As the free spins play, it’s possible for the number of rows to increase to eight, rather than the standard six, which means the winning potential is greater too. When all rows are at full capacity in the bonus game, there will be a huge 65,536 ways to win. It’s also possible for more free spins to be added during, and there is the potential for multipliers to grow too.
