Yggdrasil’s highly successful track record with Gigablox slots continues with yet another Gigablox creation. This time, we are stepping into an electric world of 7s, gambling, and flashing lights. The old-school casino nostalgia oozes out of every pore in 777 Volt Gigablox, and so if that’s something you might be into, be sure to check it out. In 777 Volt Gigablox, players face a 6×4 grid with medium-high variance that starts off with 25 paylines. Thanks to gigantic game icons, you might get up to 40 paylines, i.e., ways to form a win. If you succeed in going all the way to the max win, you will pocket 5,000x the stake.
Even though we are not exactly sure about the game’s theme and direction, the features are a vibe. First off, we have Gigablox – giant, massive game icons that can land as 4×4 or even 6×6. These are the star of every Gigablox show, and with every right – they considerably increase your winning chances. Outside of Gigablox icons, you will also enjoy Free Spins boosted by Feature Picks (modifiers), as well as the Diamond Feature. Ultimately, if you fail to secure Diamond prizes or Free Spins, you can rely on Golden Bets and the Bonus Buy.
Both the Golden Bet and the Buy Feature cost a pretty penny to use. Golden Bet does increase winning chances by adding a Feature Pick in Free Spins, but it also costs 20% more. A Buy Bonus costs from 60x to 100x. Bets in the 777 Volt Gigablox slot start at $0.25 and go up to $100. Ultimately, you can win up to 5,000x the stake, but that won’t be that easy as the game has a 94% RTP and medium-high variance. Read our full review below for more details.
SHOW MORESHOW MORESHOW LESS777 Volt Gigablox is the latest Gigablox slot in a string of popular Gigablox slots for Yggdrasil Gaming. This is far from being our first Gigablox rodeo, and we understand well how Gigablox slots work. Moreover, we are very used to seeing Yggdrasil experiment with Gigablox slot themes and settings, so we are not surprised to see 777 Volt Gigablox being set in the old-school Vegas-style casino world.
The game might look like a standard Vegas-themed video slot, but it’s not a classic slot in the slightest. Gameplay happens on the 6×4 grid that starts off with 25 paylines but might increase to 40. Gigablox icons are gigantic icons that may land as 2×2, 3×3, 4×4, or even bigger. At one point, when you expand the grid, you might also encounter 6×6 Gigablox icons. These colossal icons are regular paying icons that can form wins and pay out if they cover more icons. This means you are are more likely to score something as the icons are bigger. But the path to big icons is not easy. In fact, it’s highly challenging as the slot has medium/high variance and a 94% RTP. The variance would not be such a problem had it not been for the low RTP. This all combined means the game is risky and not for low rollers.
Speaking of rolling, the least you can wager on a round in 777 Volt Gigablox is $0.25. On the other hand, the highest possible bet in the slot is $100, which is a solid betting range. We would have loved to see an even lower minimum bet, but this is good too.
To play the game, you first set the bet and then click spin. Icons like card royals J-A pay 2x to 6x as low-pay icons. They are followed by 7s, 77s, 777s, and Volt 777s as high-pay icons that are worth 6x to 12x for 6 OAK. If you trigger a symbol upgrade in the Free Spins, high-value icons might get boosted up to 20x payouts for 6 OAK. Wilds in the game also pay 20x for 6 OAK.
777 Volt Gigablox has the following game features: Gigablox icons, Free Spins, the Diamond Feature, Golden Bets, and the Buy Feature. Special icons in the game also include Wilds which can replace any type of icon on the grid.
GigaBlox is a mechanic that allows icons as big as 2×2 to 6×6 to appear on the grid. These icons participate in wins and, since they are so big, they can trigger some really potent prizes.
This is the star of the game, truly. Free Spins begin with Scatters. You’ll need at least 5 to get into Free Spins, and each Scatter gives you 1 Free Spin. At the start of the spin round, you also get 3-7 Feature Picks. These are modifiers that apply throughout the round. Here are the potential Feature Picks:
Please bear in mind that before the start of the round, you also have a gamble game where you try to win over more Feature picks (up to a maximum of 8). You are presented with a set of boxes on which you click. If you find a key in them, you win an extra Feature. If you miss, you lose the entire round.
Diamonds are icons that land only on the last reel. Whenever they land, they award a prize, even if they are only partially visible and the rest is hidden. The prize can be anything from 2x to 500x the stake, or even Free Spins (5,9, or 16 Spins) in the base game. If the Diamond lands in Free Spins, you will get a prize that’s either a cash prize (2x-500x) or extra Spins (1, 2, 3, or 5 Spins).
The Golden Bet adds +1 Feature Pick when you enter Free Spins. However, the Golden Bet also costs 20% more than the current stake.
If you decide to purchase Free Spins, the cost will be from 60x to 100x the stake. The lower price gives you a random number of spins ranging from 5 to 16, as well as 3 to 7 feature picks. If you pay 100x, you will get a random number of Spins ranging from 5 to 16, but with 4-8 feature picks.
777 Volt Gigablox is a Vegas-style gambling game from Yggdrasil that you can play on any device in the house – provided you are interested in a Vegas-style gambling game with 6 reels and 25 paylines. The slot is a GigaBlox slot, which means icons can appear as big as 6×6. That happens only if you expand the grid from 25 to 40 paylines.
777 Volt GigaBlox offers wins up to 5,000x the stake. That’s neither here nor there, as the game is medium-high volatile with a 94% RTP. All in all, a curious release; but one that might not hold your interest like other GigaBlox slots do. Still, it’s worth a shot.
