Tiki Tumble review

Theme and Storyline

Tiki Tumble borrows from the Polynesia-inspired American tiki movement. Originating in the 50s when soldiers returned from the Pacific conflict, the ersatz tropicality became big business. Those influences are echoed in this slot, with its volcanic island background and Fijian-style masks and totems.

The theme is cute and charming. And the upbeat imagery is given additional pizzazz by the cartoon style and bright colours.

For anyone who feels like kicking back on a beach with a Mai Tai, this could be your sort of slot.

Graphics, Sounds and Animations

The graphics are beautiful. Each of the tiki masks have oodles of character, and feel thematically of a piece. The background lends additional tropical delight to proceedings and the animations, which are largely based around the bright eruptions of tiki-torch fires, keep things zipping along with obvious energy.

The music is both appropriate and not too invasive. It’s the kind of thing that won’t bother you if you have to listen to it on loop for hours.

Plus, the sound effects work delightfully to set the scene and maintain the atmosphere of the slot.

Gameplay

At first glance, Tiki Tumble’s gameplay looks pretty straightforward. The base game uses a five reel grid with four rows. There’s no gamble feature and at first it appears to just have one simple bonus game.

However, once they get into the game, players will find that the Wilds work wonders for the pacing and style of gameplay. Meanwhile, the bonus has enough of a twist to keep the game interesting (see below for details of both the Wilds and the Bonus).

Overall, gameplay is quick-paced and varied enough to keep the average player engaged and entertained.

Wilds, Bonuses and Free Spins

The Wild symbol substitutes for all symbols except the Scatter symbol. The Wilds are stacked.

When a stack of Wilds land partially on the reels in the top three rows, they remain in place for the next few spins, moving down by one space after each spin until they drop off the bottom of the reels.

Landing three or more Scatter symbols anywhere on the reels will trigger a Free Spin bonus. The player’s spins start with reels two and four as stacked Wilds. The player then gets free spins until there are no more Wilds on the reels.

During the free spins a multiplier increases by one each time the Wilds nudge downwards. The more Scatters you trigger the free spins with, the higher the multiplier starts at (x1, x2, or x3).
