The unbridled creativity of human beings never ceases to amaze. From the connectivity of the internet to space travel, to nanotechnology, it often seems like our only limit is our imagination. The same goes for online slots creators, well, some of them at least, and one developer that has already shown bags of ingenuity is Print Studios. The last thing we thought we’d be doing on the day Royal Potato came out was reviewing an online slot based on just about the humblest object out there.
Not only is Royal Potato bursting at the seams with creative inputs, it is also capable of eye-opening outputs. A prime example is this big win clip that demonstrates what can happen when the game’s collection system gets on a roll, the Jumbo Symbol reaches full size, and some serious multiplying action takes place underneath.
Played on a 5×4, 30 payline reel matrix, the real fun begins when the bonus round comes to life, either bought or by naturally landing 3 golden bonus symbols. This whisks players to the free spins section where the admittedly Fat Rabbit inspired mechanics grease into life. What you want to do here is make combinations of the symbols in the box displayed on the left. Doing so increases the Jumbo Symbol’s wild abilities and grows it from a starting 2×1 size up to a maximum of 5×5. Keep in mind each time the Jumbo Symbol grows, extra spins are awarded.
In this big win clip, it takes the lucky UK punter 3 spins to get the first growth upgrade, 7 spins for the second, and 9 to produce the third upgrade. This is where things start to get really interesting because now the Jumbo Symbol is 3×3 in size, meaning every eligible symbol landing on reel 1 from then on creates a win so you can sit back and enjoy the consecutive hits linking up.
Spin 17 is where everything comes together, and all symbols in the box have been collected. This causes the Jumbo Symbol to reach its final form, and things get mental. Only the highest value symbol appears beneath the Jumbo Symbol, linking every win line with every SuperSpinner multiplier. Royal Potato’s dream scenario, in other words, which is made more surreal by Johann Pachelbel‘s Canon jamming away in the background.
From there, it’s a straight run to a $33,161.40 payout, made even sweeter since there was less than twenty quid left in the balance. You know, some say lipstick on a pig is still a pig, but we’re not so sure. Royal Potato probably wouldn’t have been quite so great if Print hadn’t constructed such a dreamy looking world to host their game in. Then again, when you see Royal Potato perform the way it did here, the gameplay and mechanics probably would have shined through any outer covering.
