Yggdrasil Gaming’s extensive portfolio of titles continues to grow at a rapid rate thanks in increasing part to the YG Masters platform. The new slot, TikiPop, was developed in collaboration with the Hong-Kong-based games studio AvatarUX.
The highly volatile game boasts up to 33,614 ways to win and a massive maximum win potential of 32,000x your stake. TikiPop is the fifth title in the PopWins slot series, following the releases of PopRocks, WildPops, CherryPop, and BountyPop, all of which were released in 2020, the studio’s debut year.
The PopWins mechanic is triggered by a successful symbol combo, causing the reels to expand with each win. Two extra symbols will replace the popped ones and this process repeats until no more wins appear.
If you land three or more scatters, you will trigger the extra spins mode and any additional scatters will award you a higher starting level. While the feature is active, the reels are expanded and the multiplier increases by +1 with every win. Once all the reels are unlocked, the multiplier increase rate doubles and you will receive extra bonus spins.
A handy gamble feature gives you the chance to upgrade your extra spins level if you are willing to test your luck.
The Managing Director for AvatarUX, Marcus Honney, said “Our PopWins mechanic has allowed us to reach players all over the world and provide a thrilling gaming experience, and we’re ecstatic to launch our latest game, TikiPop. “With a level-based free spins mode, players can enjoy watching wins pop even more in this tantalising tribal tale.”
YG Masters appears to be the gift that keeps s on giving and the release of TikiPop follows hot on the heels of the February 11th launch of Labyrinth of Knossos MultiJump, a mythological themed title by Dreamtech Gaming.
Dreamtech’s title was launched via the Cherry AB subsidiary’s advanced Game Adaptation Tools & Interface (GATI) advance. This system enables studios and game developers to leverage standardized technology to continue to produce cutting-edge products.
In an official press release, The Head of Partner Programs for Yggdrasil, Stuart McCarthy lauded the popularity of their partner studio’s innovation.
“AvatarUX’s PopWins games are real highlights in our YG Masters offering and we’re delighted to welcome the newest addition to the family. TikiPop features an engaging theme while the wins are bigger than ever in this immersive adventure.”
