ABOUT ESQUELETO EXPLOSIVO 2 SLOT
Anyone who reads The Slot Buzz frequently knows that we are huge Thunderkick fans. Esqueleto Explosivo was their debut game, released in 2014, and it exhibited all of their strengths: excellent visuals, engaging gameplay, a well-executed premise, and a sense of humour. The game’s sole drawback was its minimal volatility and limited potential (700x). Five years later, the slot scene has shifted: Megawaysâ„¢ and high variance are now commonplace. So, in order to bring the game up to date, Thunderkick has reversed the game’s volatility and potential. Esqueleto Explosivo 2 has been upgraded to a high-risk, high-reward experience with a plethora of multipliers and big wins.
Gameplay, Setup, and Paytable
Any group of 3 to 5 symbols diagonally or vertically adjacent are a winning combination in Esqueleto Explosivo, which is played on a 5×3 reel layout with 99 paylines.
Symbols
Low Value and Premium – In the game, there are six fundamental symbols, each of which is represented by a skull with various colored markings. The skull with the golden wig, jewellery, and dazzling eyes has the biggest payout of 5x for five on a payline.
Explosivo Wilds – These appear at random and substitute for all other symbols except scatters and premiums, exploding 3 to 8 adjacent symbols.
Collecting Explosivo Wilds throughout the Free Spins round also earns you more free spins. Every third wild doubles your spins while also removing the lowest value from the Mucho Multiplier.
Scatters – The clockwork skull triggers free spins, with 3 triggering 10 free spins, 4 triggering 12 free spins, and 5 triggering 14 free spins. Extra free spins are awarded if you get two or more scatters in the bonus game.
Characteristics of the Game
Cascading Wins – Like its predecessor, Esqueleto Explosivo 2, Esqueleto Explosivo 2 employs a Cascading Wins feature, also known as Dropping Symbols, to generate numerous win sequences from a single spin. Winning symbols erupt after a winning spin, and new ones appear to take their place. This continues until no more victory lines are generated.
Win cascades fuel the game’s beautifully named multiplier feature, Mucho Multiplier. The multiplier is doubled after each cascade, increasing from 1x to 2x, 4x, and so on, up to 32x in the original game.
Scatters are required to activate the free spins round, which may award up to 14 free spins for 5 scatters on a single spin. Every third wild in this game gives you an additional spin and eliminates the multiplier with the lowest value. Multipliers of up to 64x are also available, allowing for enormous payouts.
THE VERDICT OF THE SLOT BUZZ
Esqueleto Explosivo 2 is a fantastic slot machine. The original was a charming film, but it lacked the danger and possibility that we like. With the addition of a free spins round with a possible 64x multiplier, the game can now compete with some of the greatest new high volatility games on the market while maintaining its individuality. A fantastic end to the year for a quality studio.
