Judging by recent game release frequency, Big Time Gaming’s slot wizards team is on summer vacay of sorts. It’s been over a month since the Fizzy Pennyslot release, and their next game, Boo, is not coming sooner than the end of September. It’s not that original either, because it’s a clone of their 2021-released Pop! slot. Except for the fact that it has the potential to pay out a staggering 200,000x the bet, more than any other BTG slot as far as our statskeeping goes.
Game Mechanics
Just like the fairground-themed Pop! slot from a few years ago, Boo has this innovative reel mechanic, where the reels spin both downwards and upwards. This creates an engaging dynamic that’s more than just visual flair. According to the developer, Dual Reel system is integral to the gameplay, creating opportunities for cascading reactions that clear the way for high-paying symbols to float into view. All that happens on a 4x4 reel setup and 256 ways to win.
Reactions
The key to big wins lies in the game’s Reactions feature. Every time you hit a winning combination, the symbols involved in the win explode and are replaced by new ones, potentially triggering even more wins in a single spin. This cascading effect is not only satisfying to watch but can also lead to the game’s Free Spins feature.
Free Spins Bonus
Here’s how it works:
- Free Spins Activation: Triggered by landing 3 or more Scatters, you’ll win 12 Free Spins, with the chance to earn additional spins if you land more Scatters during the feature.
- Multiplier Mayhem: During Free Spins, each of the 16 positions on the reels has a multiplier that sticks and can increase with each winning spin. These multipliers don’t reset until the Free Spins round ends, giving you a shot at some truly massive payouts.
Wilds, Multipliers, and Scatters
One of the standout features in the series, if you may, is the Wild Multiplier system. Wilds appear on reels 2 through 4 and can carry multipliers of up to x4. If multiple Wilds contribute to a win, their multipliers combine, creating the potential for huge multipliers and even bigger wins.
As mentioned, the Scatter symbols are your ticket to the Free Spins round, and during this feature, they become even more valuable. Not only can they retrigger additional Free Spins, but they also boost the multipliers on the reels, pushing your potential payouts even higher.
Bonus Buy
The paytable, bonuses and even RTP of 96.54% are the same between Pop! and Boo slots. But only Boo has the Bonus Buy option that goes like this:
- Buy 12 Free Spins for 90x bet
- Buy 24 Free Spins for 500x bet.
It’s not only unusual for Big Time Gaming to offer the second feature buy at this high price point, but also to have this interesting clause in the paytable: When Buying 24 Free Spins for 500 times the Free Spins Stake, the max payout of the game is 200,000 times stake. That’s the highest maximum win potential in BTG’s entire slots portfolio, surpassing that of Fireworks by almost 50,000x.
Final Thoughts
Boo, the studio's newest ghost-themed slot is scheduled to come out across BTG-supplied casinos on September 25. It will prime players for Halloween but also raise an eyebrow or two with its bold Bonus Buy moves, perhaps inspired by the other Evolution-owned game studio, Nolimit City. The Boo slot also promises to be a feast for the same NLC slot fans and otherwise adrenaline seekers who happen to live in more laissez-faire iGaming control authorities, and who will therefore have access to the 90x and 500x free spin ticket.
