PITCH
CloudForge is a 6×5 reel slot with 20 paylines and a maximum win of x10,000.
SYMBOLS
The game’s low-value symbols are different coloured spheres that return between x0.1 and x8 the player’s bet, depending on the number of these symbols that land along the requisite paylines.
Moving up the paytable, compasses and telescopes return between x0.5 and x12.5 the player’s stake.
Meanwhile, timers, guns and the game’s main character return between x1 and x50 the player’s wager.
The game also has a wild symbol that substitutes for all symbols on the reels except for the bonus symbol. Wilds can expand upwards and increase the multiplier by one for each step of expansion.
DETAILS
During the base game, random reels can become electric, and any wilds that land on them will expand to fill up the entire reel.
If two wilds land in the same reel, the top wild will expand upwards first, followed by the bottom wild. When these coincide, their respective multiplier values are multiplied.
Landing three scatter symbols awards eight extermination spins. During extermination spins, any wilds that land contribute to a global multiplier. All wins during this feature are multiplied by the current global multiplier.
Landing two scatter symbols and one super scatter symbol awards entry into eradication spins with eight spins.
Any wilds that land during this bonus game contribute to a global multiplier, which applies to all wins.
Players can enable wild feature spins to guarantee extra wilds on every spin. Adding x2.5 to the player’s bet quadruples the probability of entry to extermination spins. Finally, activating bonus reels significantly improves the chance of triggering the bonus round.
WHAT THEY SAY
Louis Manché, Game Product Owner at Relax Gaming, said: “Expanding Wilds are a mechanic that players continue to gravitate towards, and we wanted to build an experience that puts them front and centre. With CloudForge, we’ve built the game around that mechanic and given it plenty of room to drive the action.
“During free spins, progressive multipliers give each new Wild the potential to push the feature further, creating a natural sense of build-up as the round develops. It’s easy to pick up, but there’s always the anticipation that the next Wild could transform the spin.”
