Push Gaming transports players to the majestic landscape of the Polynesian islands in Tiki Tumble. This five-by-four slot, like some other recent releases from this developer, is anchored by an extraordinary free spin feature, where two of the reels taken up entirely by fully stacked wilds throughout the bonus.
Theme
This slot is set amidst the shocking natural beauty of the South Pacific. Erupting volcanoes stand in the background, billowing smoke and glowing magma on full display, with blue skies and open seas behind them. Palm leaves and carved stone faces stand at either side of the reels. Gaming symbols consist of a series of five totems, each its own color and making an expressive face, as well as four colorful lower-value shape symbols. The golden totem acts as wild, while a bright yellow mask acts as scatter, its mouth open wide. The overall design is very easy on the eyes, and play is both pleasant and seamless.
Betting Options and Functions
Push Gaming brings its usual reliable (if sometimes inelegant) attention to detail to bear in the finer points of Tiki Tumble. There are 20 fixed paylines, each paying from left to right, with total per-spin bet set simply from 0.20–100.00 times the betting currency. Autospins are available for up to 100 spins at a time, with optional stops built in for adjustable total loss or single win limits. Payable information, sound options, and detailed game rules are available on separate screens. The overall theoretical return to player ratio is excellent at 96.49%.
Features
The design team offers two bonus features here, both of which are potentially lucrative. The nudging wilds feature takes place when one or more of the wild symbols appear in the top three positions of one or more reels. After the reels have stopped spinning and payouts are awarded, wild reel “nudges” down by one position, then remains in place while the other reels spin again.
More than in most slots, however, it’s the free spins that really make this game special, as well where the best chances to win will be found. Free spins are awarded by the appearance of three or more of the mask scatter symbols on the reels. During free spins, reels two and four will be entirely taken up by stacked wilds for the duration of the feature, guaranteeing major wins. What’s more, win multipliers will be in place, beginning at 1x, 2x, or 3x, depending on how many scatters were involved in triggering the feature. Each time the nudging wild feature occurs during free spins, however, the win multiplier increases by one, with the re-spins involved not counting against the free spin total. As such, both win multipliers and total amount of free spins are theoretically limitless.
Our Take
Tiki Tumble is a formidable slot, with firm roots in Polynesian mythology as well as compelling design. It’s the bonus features, however, that push it over the edge into the category of noteworthy online slots: Push Gaming has gone the extra mile to ensure that players will have much to enjoy in this volatile slot.
