Yggdrasil Gaming invites you to experience the explosively festive side of Rio with Brazil Bomba online slot. Rio’s Carnival is, perhaps, the most famous street parade in the world and has inspired similar events all around the globe. This world of elaborate costumes and night-time partying is vividly captured in the design of this slot. The 6x8 reels are decorated like a carnival float with a beautiful, costumed performer on the left side and a giant multiplier counter on the right. The game’s win mechanics are unusual, with the expected paylines nowhere to be seen. A Brazilian nightscape is the background, featuring purple-hued sandy beaches and palm trees, rounded off with a generic samba soundtrack. Brazil Bomba is packed with in-game benefits such as dropdown wins, cluster pays, free spins with increasing multiplier, and “the bomb” feature to ease your way to a festive win.
Brazil Bomba slot includes the familiar dropdown wins mechanic where symbols that form winning combinations will disappear, leaving room for more symbols to fall, creating the possibility for multiple wins off a single spin. Things get unorthodox with this title though. Instead of a traditional payline or ways-to-win game mechanic, you create winning combinations by landing a cluster of 6 of the same symbol. The symbols can be connected horizontally, vertically or even diagonally.
Each successive win that you manage adds to the slot’s multiplier counter. Each win increases the multiplier by 1x with no stated maximum value that you potentially could reach. A dropdown that does not result in a win will reduce your multiplier back down to zero.
If 3 free spins scatters appear on the reels, the game shifts into free spins mode. If 3, 4, 5 or 6 scatters land on the same spin, you will receive 5, 10, 15 or 20 free spins respectively. During the free spins, the multiplier does not disappear with a winless dropdown and can only increase with more wins. The free spins feature can be retriggered to give you up to 40 free spins in total.
The Bomb is a randomly occurring special feature. When the special symbol appears, the carnival costumed beauty standing to the left of the grid aims a festively decorated cannon at the reels, detonating the bomb which removes up to 16 symbols, making room for winning combinations or even that 3rd scatter that you may have been hunting for.
Brazil Bomba online slot doesn’t quite mimic the frantic energy of the Rio carnival. Once you get playing, it comes across as more of a laid-back affair; however, Yggdrasil has achieved a fine balance and flow of features that create consistent excitement throughout the game. The base game is well-paced, with either or both the increasing multiplier and bomb features creating chains of successive wins that can lead to handsome rewards. The free spins mode also rewards you with chained wins and a sticky multiplier that can result in a maximum cash prize of almost $450,000. While this slot plays it safe in many areas, the unusual cluster win mechanic and impressive win potential means it’s certainly worth a go.
