Yggdrasil prepares to unveil new mechanic in upcoming slot launch
20th September 2024 8:22 am GMTYggdrasil is set to unveil its latest Game Engagement Mechanic (GEM) in its upcoming slot release, Aphrodite Goes Wild RushingWilds.
RushingWilds is the latest addition to the supplier’s GEM portfolio, which includes DoubleMax, GigaBlox and MulitMax, and comes into play during a session of consecutive free spins or respins.
“As a studio, we’re now synonymous with our GEMs and the way in which they elevate the playing experience,” said Yggdrasil senior game designer Marcin Tomala. “Ours is a hyper-competitive industry and it is through innovations such as RushingWilds that we can remain relevant and keep our games at the vanguard of slot development.
“We’re confident this new GEM will add quality and diversity in gameplay as previously released iterations have proven.”
If a wild lands on the reels, it automatically becomes sticky. The experience progresses when another wild lands, seeing all previously sticky wilds getting an upgrade of +Multiplier to all wins that go through them.
These multipliers are counted separately for each wild. They only stop being sticky at the end of the consecutive spin session. The multiplier upgrade per new wild on the reels is by default +1x but can be customised for operator flexibility.
The max cap of multiplier values is not mandatory, but it can occur at times such as when the multiplier cannot exceed x5.
