Hong-Kong-based independent games studio AvatarUX has launched its next PopWins title, WildPops, via its ongoing partnership with Yggdrasil Gaming‘s flagship YG Masters program.
The new addition to the Swedish provider’s slot offering makes use of the Asian developer’s PopWins mechanic, which sees winning symbols ‘pop’ and be replaced with a pair of new symbols. The symbols can keep expanding for every cascading win on a single spin, ramping up awesome win potential.
“WildPops™ is a fun-filled new addition to the Yggdrasil slot offering and will appeal to a wide demographic of players.”
Game features:
For every seventh Pop, the game adds a multiplier, which means that a single spin can transform into big wins as long as the Pops don’t and the reel grid keeps growing.
If a player should land three wins simultaneously, they trigger two random wilds, which will then be repeated for every three consecutive wins, paving the way to even greater number of Pops.
Triggering the bonus round happens if the reels grow to seven columns high, which awards players three extra lives. Typically, a non-win screen would mean the end of the multiplier, however, in this case, one of the three extra lives is consumed and the player is awarded with a re-spin. The multiplier, meanwhile, stays put throughout the entire spin.
Broad range appeal:
Head of Partner Strategy and Sourcing for Yggdrasil Gaming, Stuart McCarthy, used an official press release to comment on the new release…
“WildPops™ is a fun-filled new addition to the Yggdrasil slot offering and will appeal to a wide demographic of players. Our YG Masters studios continue to push the boundaries of innovation and AvatarUX is no different with its fascinating graphics and thrilling PopWins™ mechanic which has proven very popular with players.”
AvatarUX partnership:
Real money and social games studio AvatarUX originally partnered with the innovative content provider through its flagship Yggdrasil Game Server (YGS) Masters program in early February 2019. It was the fourth studio to join the program following Rabcat, Northern Lights, and Fantasma Games.
The third title launched via the exclusive partnership, WildPops™ follows the successful release of the 33,614 ways to win video slot, PopRocks in April 2020, and Lilith’s Inferno in October last year.
Also commenting on the new release, Managing Director for AvatarUX, Marcus Honney, added…
“Our latest PopWins™ game contains all the thrilling excitement of our feature mechanic with a fun theme and massive win potential. Any spin can get the Popping started and give players thrilling experiences.
“Our partnership with Yggdrasil continues to go from strength to strength and we look forward to it growing for many years.”
