Milkshake XXXtreme Theme and Symbols

The theme for this game is the popular sweet drink, the milkshake. The history of the milkshake is rather interesting. When the term "milkshake" was first used in print in 1885, milkshakes referred to alcoholic whiskey drinks that were described as a "sturdy, healthful eggnog type of drink, with eggs, whiskey, etc., served as a tonic as well as a treat". However, by 1900, the term referred to "wholesome drinks made with chocolate, strawberry, or vanilla syrups." By the "early 1900s, people were asking for the new treat, often with ice cream. Now the milkshake has taken on many forms, but for whatever reason still enchants and delights people worldwide. This slot is a testament to their allure.

Each milkshake can randomly have a colour of red, green, orange, or blue, a multiplier of between x2 to x100, or starting points of 2-12. When you find wins in this game, winning symbols matching the colour of the milkshake are added to it, increasing the points value by the number of symbols added.
