Balloonies Slot Review 2024

Balloonies

Balloonies is a 5 reel, 20 payline video slot developed by IGT that takes players high into the sky in search of treasures that have risen to the sky. The higher that players go will have free spins, wild substitutes, bonus multipliers, scatters and a bonus game revealed. Reaching your final destination will have you awarded with the $250,000.00 jackpot.

The sky is lite up in a bright blue as clouds and rays of sunlight pour down towards the ground. This is the background which interacts with the reels simultaneously. Monkeys, elephants, giraffes, stars, balloons, porcupines and themed poker suits will all be seen as slot symbols. These symbols float around in the clouds on the reels, seeming as if they are flying themselves.

Playing this game is like playing any other under the IGT platform. Players have the options to alter which lines will be active and what will be wagered on each line. The value of line bets begins at $1.00 and end at $100.00. If all twenty paylines are to be active, then a $2,000.00 maximum bet will be at play. Any denomination lower than that can be made as well.

The Porcupine, he in his anger is the wild substitute. When he appears on a winning line, he will replace nine of the ten available symbols in this game to make way for payouts. The only icon which isn't affected by the wild is the star symbol.

The star icon is a gateway to bonus multipliers. Triggering these bonus multipliers requires that one, two or three of the star icons be seen. Players will be given either a 2x, 3x or 5x multiplier respectively in exchange. The multiplier remains present for one spin.

Triggering the free games bonus requires that players have the bonus icon appear on the first, second and third reels at the same time. This will result in punters having to pop either a red, blue or green balloon to reveal a maximum of twelve free spins with a maximum of a 10x multiplier alongside them. This can result in higher payouts then any player could expect.

Balloonies, it gives everything that somebody could want out of a video slot. The gameplay itself is so compelling that the need for game features & a jackpot isn't relevant, they are only a bonus to the core gameplay. Playing this game will expand what punters expect out of a video slot.
