Balloon Race Slot Review

Game Rules

Balloon Race is a colourful slot and live game show that takes you on a balloon adventure high above the clouds. The aim of this three-stage game is to qualify for the live game show, with the first person to reach the top being the winner. First, you need to spin the Qualification slot to collect either three scatter symbols, three Expanding Wilds, or a combination of both. This will entitle you to enter the Balloon Race bonus round! Before the race begins, you also have the opportunity to increase your multipliers on the Top Up stage. You then enter the Balloon Race Bonus round for a chance to collect even bigger wins. Colour the sky with multiple wins – because in Balloon Race, all three stages of the game give you the chance to accumulate multipliers and soar to new heights!

The game features three phases:

• Qualification
• Top Up
• Balloon Race Bonus round.

Qualification

The game starts with a qualifying stage that uses a five-reel, three-row slot with 10 fixed win lines, one scatter symbol, one Expanding Wild and eight paying symbols (10, J, Q, K, A, Bronze Ribbon, Silver Ribbon).

The challenge is to hit a set of any three symbols – either the scatter symbols or the Expanding Wilds. The Expanding Wild symbol can substitute for any other symbol on the entire reel, except for the scatter. Scatter symbols can contain additional multipliers that increase your total winnings. Expanding Wild symbols increase your chances of hitting a combination. For example, a qualifying combination might be two scatter symbols and one Expanding Wild symbol.

After successfully qualifying, all the multipliers (2x-10x) you have collected are added up and used in the Balloon Race bonus round to calculate the final multipliers.

You can still receive payouts for winning combinations, which are paid out according to the payout table.

You can familiarise yourself with the pay table and win line information at any time by simply clicking/tapping on the information icon or in the “How to Play” section.

Top Up

After qualifying for the Balloon Race Bonus round and waiting for it to start, you have the opportunity to participate in the Top Up stage. Pressing the “TOP UP” button will release 3-6 balloons (maximum two of each colour), and each balloon contains a possible Top Up value. As the balloons ascend, they can either burst or reach the top, where the corresponding balloon bonus value is added to the corresponding finish goal. These values will be added to the total bonus value in the bonus game.

Paylines

10 Lines.

Return to Player

The optimal theoretical return-to-player (RTP) percentage is 96.09%.
