Yggdrasil invites you to splash into some winning action in its new aquatic title, Golden Fish Tank 2 Gigablox.
This slot is the follow-up to the hugely popular 2016 slot title, Golden Fish Tank. While the sequel retains the cute fish characters from the original, you will find it is a much-improved game with the addition of the Gigablox mechanic and an increased 5000x your stake maximum potential.
The Gigablox mechanic kicks in on every spin during the base game, causing two or more adjacent reels to merge so they can contain oversized 2×2, 3×3, or 4×4 Gigablox symbols. Things get even bigger when free spins are activated with massive blocks up to 6x6 in size making an appearance.
When you land at least five scatters, you will activate the bonus round where you get as many free spins as triggering symbols, and you can choose from one of six bonus features. These include including Wild Fish where one fish symbol transforms into a wild, expanded reels, a 2x multiplier, stacked fish symbols, random wilds, or additional extra spins.
For a little more winning potential, engage the Golden Bet mode, which boosts your bet by 20% and adds an extra feature pick. And if activating the bonus round feels too challenging you can always use the Bonus Buy feature and gain instant access to free spins for 60x your stake or 100x your stake with Golden Bet activated.
The wins keep flowing as Treasure Chest symbols appear on the fifth reel to award you prizes worth up to 500x your stake, or up to 16 free spins.
Built to Thrill
Stuart McCarthy, the Head of Product and Programs at Yggdrasil, shared his thoughts on the new title in an official press release, saying,
“Golden Fish Tank 2 GigaBlox combines a fun theme with one of our most popular mechanics. Adding huge riches to the recipe ensures this is one wealthy fish tank. We’re constantly striving to create our own dynamic content to sit alongside our YG Masters portfolio and we’re very pleased to launch this game which is a sequel to one of our most popular titles of all time.”
“GigaBlox is a high-performing mechanic for us, and it is something we will look to incorporate even more in upcoming releases, to continue to meet player appetite,” he concluded.
The new slot was introduced in the wake of the successful release of Hunters Moon Gigablox, another Yggdrasil title that also integrates the Gigablox feature which is listed as one of the developer’s five GEM (game engagement mechanic) features, which include MultiMAX, Splitz, GigaRise and DoubleMax.
