Kluster Krystals Megaclusters

Kluster Krystals Megaclusters from the development team at Relax Gaming who have beat all their rivals to use the Big Time Gaming’s Megaclusters mechanic. Having seen what Big Time Gaming accomplished it is only natural to wonder what this mechanic can do for this grid slot. It has not been that long since BGT released their initial slot Star Clusters which they followed up quite swiftly with Cyberslot. You will notice that this slot offers a different gaming experience, so, if you are ready to see what Kluster Krystals Megaclusters has to offer read on.

Kluster Krystals Megacluster Overview

When it comes to the first impressions it becomes obvious how different this slot is, with this slot modelled more on a prehistoric game of Tetris rather than a 70s Star Trek and Flash Gordon mix. The 5x5 grid is transparent and sits in the middle of two stone columns under a dark night sky whilst the stars glitter in the backdrop. The soundtrack may easily have taken its inspiration from the flower fortunes Megaways and sets the mood and establishes the atmosphere whilst the overall effect is adequate the developers could possibly have put a little more effort into things to make a bigger splash with the Megaclusters part of the slot.

Gameplay, Facts and Figures

When you are ready to spin the reels the first thing you need to do is to choose the bet range that you are most comfortable playing with. The bet range starts from just 10p per spin up to a maximum of £100 per spin. The developers have stated that the return to player sits at 96.49% which means that the house edge sits at 3.51%. Remember though whilst the slot is quite well-balanced, the math model can be ruthless because of the high volatility however this does go hand in hand with the high win potential. The free spins frequency is rather low, and you are more than likely to come across a time of dead spins, because of this you could see the slot as a case of all or nothing and with this in mind I would expect this to be a favourite amongst hardcore gamers.

Symbols

To form a cluster, you need to land eight or more identical symbols and although this may seem quite a stretch on the 5x5 grid, but you need not worry as the Megaclusters are on hand to help you out. Every position on the grid can house singles, doubles, trebles, and quadruple versions of the symbols. You will not find that many symbols in fact there are only five gems, and these are green, blue, purple, pink, and orange and they will reward you with 20x to 50x your stake when you land a cluster of 20. There is no wild in this slot however this is equalled out by the number of features there are on offer.

Features

The features integrate with the Megaclusters mechanic in some way and you can expect to come across avalanches with symbol upgrades, multipliers, free spins as well as three mini-features. Every win combination that you land activates the avalanche feature and the winning symbols are then removed from the screen and new symbols drop down into the spaces to potentially create further wins from the one spin as the process repeats until there are no new clusters formed. Whilst this is all going on the non-winning symbols that are next to the winning clusters are upgraded so a single becomes a double and so to again give you the chance to land increased repeat winnings.

The multipliers also upgrade when they land next to a winning cluster, the multipliers are worth 1x, 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, or 10x as the base multiplier and can undergo an upgrade to treble their values. When the avalanche ends all multipliers are added together and applied to your overall win amount.

To keep the slot flowing there are three random features, and these will automatically activate when you have landed a run of 6 avalanches. The first is the Krystal Vanish where one coloured symbol is removed from your grid, then comes the Krystal Boost which sees all visible symbols upgraded by one stage and finally there is the Krystal Kut which removes all single stage symbols in view. Finally, there are the free spins which are activated by the bonus symbol. When the bonus symbol is in view it will be upgraded when it is next to a winning cluster. When this is totally upgraded with all four segments you are rewarded with seven free spins, landing a bonus symbol in the free spins will provide you with an additional four spins.

Conclusion

If I am honest, I was looking forward to trialling this slot as I wanted to see how a different developer would make use of the Megaclusters game mechanic. I would say though if it were not for the name, I would never have realised that I was playing a Megaclusters title. This is a great slot that has been well thought out I have to applaud the developers as this slot is far removed from the slots released from Big Time Gaming measurement.

This slot is quite different from anything I have played recently as individual symbols can expand and the way the technical have been added into a single position makes the slot feel nothing like the Megaclusters that we are familiar with. Relax Gaming should be pleased with themselves for being bold, trying something new and succeeding to produce such an entertaining slot. I particularly enjoyed was when the cluster chains were created and then they fire and pop as they begin to move, the way one-win leads to another, the symbol increments and multipliers appearing whilst the whole time remaining its grid formation. My advice would be to play Kluster Krystals with the idea that it is a well-made grid slot that you should find entertaining you will have a good time, however, If you are looking to be dazzled with a fresh take on Megaclusters and you may
