Multifly! (Yggdrasil Gaming): Overview
Aside from herpetologists or those with singular
tastes, lizards are usually pretty low on favourite animal lists. ❤️ They lack the
cuteness factor that pandas, or dolphins, or puppies have. Lizards, however, are the
star of the show ❤️ in Yggdrasil's latest slot Multifly! and a few spins is all it takes
to boost their appeal. It helps that ❤️ they are chameleons with that cool colour-change
ability that they have. Their main attraction though is that they can pile ❤️ on
multipliers which have a major effect on the outcome of a game. With a name like
Multifly!, you would ❤️ expect there to be plenty of that sort of action going on.
Yggdrasil has created a slot with features that ❤️ build on, and play off, each other.
Time to jungle up and see how it works.
You don't come across too ❤️ many games stacked
with lizards and Yggdrasil has pulled it off in their typically stylish way. The game
takes place ❤️ deep in the wild and is an agreeable game to look at. Richly coloured trees
wave in the breeze, while ❤️ the African inspired soundtrack bobs away energetically in
the background. At times, the reels are lit up with lights to ❤️ celebrate or anticipate
wins, and the aesthetics are of a high standard. The icning on top is that Multifly!
offers ❤️ some hefty rewards to go with such a cute looking game.
When it comes to the
rules, Multifly! uses a conventional ❤️ 5 reel, 3 row setup with 243 ways to win. As long
as 3 or more matching symbols land consecutively ❤️ from the first reel, you have a
winner, no matter the row. The math model can be fickle, one minute ❤️ it's humming along
happily feeding on coins, the next it is doing its best snowball impression. These dips
and dives ❤️ come coutesy of an RTP of 96.3% combined with high volatility and a rather
low hit rate of 17%.
The symbols ❤️ are a colourful bunch and are split in to high and low
pay groups. The low pays are 9-A royals, ❤️ while the high pays all creatures such as a
lizard, a frog, a toucan, and a parrot. An eclectic mix ❤️ to be sure, with the parrot
worth the most at 4 times the stake for five of a kind. That ❤️ might not sound like a
lot, but Multifly is a game that can pile on the wins. Part of the ❤️ reason is that when
winning combos land, they trigger a reel multiplier which we will take a look at
below.
Multifly! ❤️ (Yggdrasil Gaming): Features
As well as those win multipliers there
are a bunch of other features. The most common is the ❤️ Dropdown feature. This is
essentially just a typical cascading win system where winning symbols are removed from
the reels to ❤️ let new symbols fall into place. This mechanic provides additional chances
to win, and it also adds a wild symbol ❤️ to the reels whenever it occurs. The Dropdown
feature will continue to run until no more winners land.
On top of ❤️ that, whenever a
wild enters the game it triggers the Reel Multiplier feature. This occurs whether the
wild lands randomly ❤️ on a spin, or is added via the Dropdown feature. Each reel has its
own multiplier which starts at x1. ❤️ When a wild appears, the reel it is on has its
multiplier increased by +1. Thanks to the Dropdown feature, ❤️ multipliers can build up
over several reels which are applied one by one to any winning combination. Only reels
that ❤️ have winning symbols on them will apply their multipliers. During the base game,
multipliers are reset back to x1 with ❤️ each fresh new spin.
The final feature is a round
of Free Spins - when 3 scatters land simultaneously on reels ❤️ 2, 3 and 4 they award 10
free spins. The rules are the same as in the base game except ❤️ that the Reel Multiplier
feature is not reset during free spins. This means that Dropdowns, wilds, and
multipliers, can add ❤️ up nicely by the time the round is over.
Multifly! (Yggdrasil
Gaming): Verdict
Multifly! is one of those slots that can go ❤️ from zero to hundred, and
back again in an eye blink. Its high volatility and low hit rate are partly
❤️ responsible, but that effect is largely due to the way its multipliers can shake up a
game. For example, even ❤️ if your free spins round starts off poorly, a streak of
cascades can turn the tables on the very last ❤️ spin. This roller coaster of frustration
can go in a different direction as the build up of huge multipliers across ❤️ all five
reels do not guarantee big wins - you will still depend on landing five of a kind
winners.
Multifly’s ❤️ main drawback is that the gameplay can get a bit repetitive at
times. This is partly because the bonus game ❤️ is basically the main game, albeit with
multipliers that don't reset. Because of that, a session can get a little ❤️ pedestrian
after a while. Moreover, for those who enjoy fast-paced slots, Multifly! can be
perceived as rather slow as it ❤️ insists on playing through its animations on every
single win which you cannot skip.
On the whole, Multifly is an entertaining ❤️ game with
the type of clever features and potential to overcome any aversion to lizards or jungle
creepy crawlies. It's ❤️ one of those slots with meandering patches of not much going on,
interspersed by intense bursts when it's suddenly all ❤️ go. A real volatile experience –
with potential of up to 10,000 times the stake available.
