Slot Features
The game has two types of Wilds – Clam Wild and Coin Wild symbol. If a win cluster contains at least 3 medium or low paying symbols, a Clam Wild will appear taking up a place of one of the removed symbols right before the Avalanche hits. Wild Coin appears either during the base game or the bonus Free Spins round when either Random Wilds or Cannon Blast feature gets triggered.
Multipliers
Multipliers can appear either horizontally or vertically adjacent to several winning clusters multiplying them by x2, x3, x5 or x50. Multiplier symbols are not considered as a part of the winning cluster, and the same multiplier can affect multiple wins, however, only one multiplier symbol can appear on the grid at the same time.
Treasure Trail Meter
Probably the first thing you will notice when you load the game will be the train going around the grid that has 15 uncharged bars. Each time a Calm Wild becomes a part of a cluster win and gets removed from the grid, one bar on the Trail meter will charge. Get to 3 charged bars and you will get to trigger the Anchor Drop feature, with 6 charged bars you will trigger Random Wilds, with 9 charged bars you start the Mystery Chest and with 12 charged bars the feature awarded is Cannon Blast.
When all the activated features have been played or there are no more winning clusters with Clam Wilds to be formed, the Treasure Trail meter will go back down to 0 bars charged.
Anchor Drop chooses between 1 and 3 low paying symbols randomly, and all the matching symbols will get removed from the grid before the Avalanche starts. Random Wilds will randomly place between 4 and 8 Coin Wilds on the grid. Mystery Chest replaced between 2 and 16 medium and low paying, randomly chosen, symbols with Mystery symbols that will get revealed and potentially form a cluster win. Cannon Blast will remove a random symbol from the grid along with all the other medium and low paying symbols on the same row as the chosen symbol.
Free Spins and Mystery Overlay
Hitting 15 charged bars on the Treasure Trail will award Free Spins round with 9 spins and every additional 3 bars that get charged will award extra 2 spins. Mystery Overlay modifier will get activated when the Free Spins round initiates and 5 Mystery symbols will appear on the grid as a pattern beneath the symbols in the centre. These will all reveal a win cluster made of medium and low paying symbols and you can also expect mystery symbols to appear at the start of each spin randomly. If the new mystery symbols appear adjacent to initial cluster these will join the pattern until the round ends.
Summary
Reef Raider is a well-designed slot with charming looks that has a lot to offer in terms of features. We really liked the whole package with medium volatility and x8500 max win. It’s entertaining slot with happy theme and features that, to an extent, are innovative. Take a dip and discover what lies beneath the surface, hiding in the ocean waves.
