The wombat says: The Eighties are the setting for this neon filled slot. It’s time to head back to an era of hairspray, unisex leg warmers and cassette tapes as we check our Electric Avenue slot from Microgaming (in partnership with All41 Studios). There’s more colour here than the Bompers slot from ELK and that’s saying something.
Aside from a trip down memory lane, this game also comes with a choice of 2 Free Spins features! Which has got our mouths a-watering…
Let’s jump into the Delorean right away and head back to the 80s.
Look and Feel
The 80s kids among you will love the retro graphics in this game – and All41 Studios have done a great job.
Your symbols on the reels are a total nostalgia fest including Rubik’s Cubes, Polaroid cameras and ghetto blasters amongst others – while the play is set in an episode of Miami Vice. Palm trees, neon skies are the backdrop to your play.
As for the the soundtrack? Well it’s like a dream team of Thompson Twins, The Human League and Gary Numan. Which might mean nothing to you lot. But takes this wombat right back…
Game Play
Electric Avenue slot has 4 rows, 6 reels (also try the Warrior Graveyard xNudge slot by NoLimit City if you like an extra reel), and 4096 ways to win. This means is there are no fixed pay-lines, instead you create wins by matching symbols on adjacent reels starting from the very left. Best of all, there are potential wins on offer of up to 6800x your bet – making this is high variance game.
Let’s take a look at the pay table: The high value symbols are represented by the ghetto blaster, the polaroid camera, a pair of purple hi-tops, a Rubik’s Cube, some bright pink sunglasses and a can of fizzy drink. Meanwhile, the 4 playing card symbols in neon blue, pink, green and orange will make up your lower values.
You’ll also find stacked wilds on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5. There are 4 of them; the big-haired chick on roller skates, the fella in the Thriller red leather jacket, the girl with the mic in spangly blue leggings and a Marty McFly lookalike on a skateboard.
These cool icons will help you form extra wins, but will also bring you the gift of multipliers! Reel two comes with 2x, the third reel has a 3x, reel 4 a x4 and reel 5 a chunky x5 multiplier. Bonza.
Last but not least wombat fans, the Delorean is the scatter symbol.
Free Spins and Bonus Features
Hit 3x or more of the time machine cars anywhere on the reels and you will set off the free spins bonus round. But before they get started, you’ll have to choose between these 2 options:
Electric Free Spins
This will scoop you 7 spins plus Power Wilds. This is basically a random sticky wild icons that will remain on the reels for the duration of your spins. If you manage to land 4x of these cool Power Wilds on the same reel, you’ll be given 3x more spins to add to your tally.
Neon Free Spins
This choice awards you 10 free spins with a Wild Wheel. If a stacked Wild lands on reels 2 – 5, a win multiplier wheel will pop up and randomly give you a multiplier from x11 up to x55. Not too shabby!
Hit 3x more of the Scatters in either option and the bonus will be re-triggered.
Conclusion:
The game moves fast wombat fans – and those base game Wild reels keep the wins coming in regularly. Throw in the choice of free spins rounds and the stacked wilds and you’ve got yourselves a cracking little slot. A possible new Wombat fave!
