Relax Gaming is providing slot players with a new bet option to increase their chances of bonus game rounds occurring with Bonus Reels.
Bonus Reels can be toggled on by the player for x10 the player’s stake to vastly increase the chance of bonus rounds landing, while also keeping the RTP and return efficiency the same.
When Bonus Reels is activated, only bonus symbols or blanks will appear on the reels, offering a one in 10 chance of triggering the bonus rounds or super bonus rounds of the slot being played.
“Bonus Reels is about giving players choice and momentum,” commented Martin Stålros, CEO of Relax Gaming.
“For those who love the thrill of bonus features, this offers a quicker route into the action while maintaining the same RTP.”
Relax Gaming has included the Bonus Reels options on five titles so far – Bill & Coin 2 Mummy Mischief, Jumbo Juicy, Conquer Babylon, Aura God and Ancient Tumble – but future selected all-network releases from the developer are also set to include the feature with no additional setup needed.
Stålros added: “It’s easy for operators to enable Bonus Reels as it is pre-certified and fits seamlessly into our network titles.
“We’re excited to roll it out, starting with five launch games and expanding rapidly from there.”
Bonus Reels follows on from Relax Gaming’s new iteration of its Dream Drop Jackpot mechanic, which was dissected by Alastair Smith, Jackpot Business Owner at Relax Gaming, for iGaming Expert back in May.
Smith delved into the new design of the feature, where the mega jackpot’s must-drop value was adjusted to ensure it hits more frequently alongside the introduction of three guaranteed daily jackpots every single day.
“The original Dream Drop has already proven itself as the industry’s most consistent millionaire-maker. But we didn’t want to rest on our laurels. By evolving the product, we’re responding directly to player and operator feedback.
“Daily jackpots were a natural next step, offering more frequent wins, more engagement, and ultimately more value. We’ve kept the DNA of Dream Drop intact while enhancing it to remain the most thrilling jackpot experience available today.”
