Reactoonz (Play'n GO): Review
Reactoonz is a 7x7 cluster pays slot with cascading
symbols. Symbols drop down onto the grid to 💸 form winning combinations whilst wins are
achieved by landing five or more symbols in a connected cluster - horizontally and/or
💸 vertically. Winning symbols are removed and new symbols drop in to fill the grid. The
game continues to cascade until 💸 no new winning combinations can be created.
All wins
during a game round contribute to increasing the Quantum Leap charge meters 💸 one by one.
When a charge meter is fully charged, one of the following quantum feature is added to
the 💸 queue randomly:
Implosion : Transforms 3 to 6 symbols into wild symbols, while also
destroying all adjacent symbols
: Transforms 3 to 💸 6 symbols into wild symbols, while
also destroying all adjacent symbols Alteration : Chooses 1 random one-eyed symbol, and
all 💸 matching symbols turn into another symbol. In case if there are no one-eyed symbols
on the grid, feature can choose 💸 any available symbol
: Chooses 1 random one-eyed
symbol, and all matching symbols turn into another symbol. In case if there 💸 are no
one-eyed symbols on the grid, feature can choose any available symbol Demolition :
Destroys all one-eyed symbols and 💸 all matching symbols
: Destroys all one-eyed symbols
and all matching symbols Incision: Cuts a wild symbol into the centre, and 💸 creates two
intersecting diagonal lines through the grid. Both lines will show the same random
symbol.
When all five meters are 💸 fully charged, the Gargantoon feature is added to the
queue. The Gargantoon first adds a 3x3 wild symbol to the 💸 grid in a random position. If
no more cascades are possible, it first becomes two 2x2 wild symbols before finally
💸 ending up as nine 1x1 wild symbols.
New symbols drop down from the top to fill the grid
before each move. 💸 If no more cascades are possible, the Quantum features in the queue
are triggered. The game round continues normally, allowing 💸 the charge meters to charge
up for more effects, possibly creating additional wins. Charge meters reset only at the
end 💸 of the game round, if there are no more winning combinations present.
On any
initial non-winning spin, there is a chance 💸 for the Gargantoon to drop 4 to 8 wild
symbols onto the grid. 4 matching normal symbols adjacent to each 💸 other in a square
shape automatically form Giantoonz. Wins are doubled in any winning combinations if one
or more Giantoonz 💸 are part of it. One random one-eyed symbol type is marked as
fluctuating symbol in each spin. If any of 💸 the marked symbols are part of a winning
combination, they leave 2 wild symbols behind. Wilds substitute for all normal
💸 symbols.
Reactoonz (Play'n GO): Verdict
Initially, Reactoonz may come across as a bit
confusing and complicated so you just have to sort 💸 of go with it and see what happens
until you start to get the hang of it. Play'n GO have 💸 specialized in these types of
cluster slots which have become extremely popular. The potential is certainly there and
the main 💸 game allows for a lot of action and tension while trying to charge the meters.
The game engine is outstanding 💸 as is the mathematical model which is well balanced in
spite of its volatile nature.
Beware though, Reactoonz can be extremely 💸 tilting. It's
not uncommon to reach the 3rd or 4th bar just to see the progress vanish in a
heartbeat. 💸 Moreover, expect the Gargantoon to position itself in the worst possible
place on the grid as well. Overall, however, Reactoonz 💸 is not only one of Play'n GO's
finest cluster slots, it's also one of their best games ever released to 💸 date.
Don't
Miss...
Some three years following the release of the original Reactoonz, Play'n GO
finally launched a sequel. Simply titled Reactoonz 💸 2, it comes with slightly higher win
potential and a whole new set of modifiers. There's also a Gigantoonz slot 💸 which takes
the story of the Toonz even further, you might want to have a look at that one as
💸 well.
