Lions GigaBlox Slot Overview

Lions GigaBlox is a casino slot from ReelPlay that takes you to the African savannahs. Here, you will find animals grazing in the background and stampeding through the reels, with an upbeat African soundtrack that takes you back to when you watched Lion King for the first time. Here, there is no difference, as the King of Beasts acts as Wild symbols and will help you land the max win of 8,622X the bet. Something that should be noted before we continue is that this is a reskinned version of Primal Hunter GigaBlox, which instead comes with a dinosaur theme and was released the same year.

Lions GigaBlox Slot Information

It is set in the African Savannah near a small oasis with a few trees to offer shade away from the hot sun. In the background, we can see different types of animals, primarily meerkats poking their heads up from the grass. Even though the game may be a reskin, ReelPlay took the time to create a good-looking game with a fantastic atmosphere, which is also helped by the fun soundtrack. Even the attention to detail helps immerse you, as when new symbols fall in, the entire playing grid shakes from the impact. The game can be played on most desktops, mobiles, and notepads. Wins are created by 3 or more of the same symbol on adjacent reels, following any of the 40 paylines, starting on the leftmost reel. 

The lower-paying symbols are 9, 10, J, Q, K, and A. Making a win with 6 of the same symbol pays out 0.625X to 1.5X the bet. The higher-paying symbols are hyenas, boars, meerkats, and female lions. Creating a win with 6 of the same symbols pays out 2X to 3.75X the bet. You can also find the roaring lions acting as Wild Symbols and an acacia tree as Scatter Symbols. On every spin, you will also find the giant GigaBlox symbols that can appear in different sizes. We will talk more about these symbols in the next section, so let's check it out!

What are the features in the slot Lions GigaBlox?

Explosions taking place, leaving room for new symbols to fall down.

Wild Symbol

The Wild symbol substitutes for all symbols except Scatter symbols, and can show up in both the base game as well as the Free Spins feature. 

GigaBlox Symbols

GigaBlox symbols are oversized symbols that function like individual symbols but come in 2x2, 3x3, and 4x4 formations. Any symbol, including Wild and Scatter symbols, can land as GigaBloxes, and every spin will have at least one GigaBlox symbol. 

Explosions

After a winning combination, every winning symbol explodes and is replaced by new symbols falling from above to fill the empty positions. If any part of a GigaBlox symbol is part of a win, the entire GigaBlox symbol explodes. If an explosion causes a gap below a GigaBlox symbol that it can’t fit into, the GigaBlox symbol is split into 1x1 symbols.

Free Spins

The Free Spins feature is activated by landing 5 or more Scatter symbols, starting with 2 initial free spins per Scatter symbol. During the bonus game, you have a Win Multiplier that starts at 1X and multiplies all symbol wins. The Win Multiplier increases by 1 for every Explosion and doesn’t reset for the entire bonus game with no limit. You can retrigger the feature by landing 5 or more Scatter symbols which grants 1 extra spin per Scatter. 

Lions GigaBlox Slot Conclusion

Even though Lions GigaBlox is a reskin of a previously released game, ReelPlay has delivered a great-looking game with fantastic graphics. Thanks to the game's stunning looks, it does help stand out from other games set on the savannah, like Lion Strike or Savanna Roar. The fun soundtrack and sound effects work great in combination with the small attention to detail to create an enjoyable experience, like the reel shaking or the meerkats looking around as you play. Even after giving the game its praises, there is not much more to say after that, as this is quite a common theme, and we wish there were something more than the graphics that was added to make it feel more unique. The game also being a reskin does not give the game any extra points, as it takes away from the experience, knowing that this is just another game we have previously played. 

Moving on to the gameplay, we can see that the game has an okay stat spread, with hit frequency averaging out on about every 4th spin and a very average RTP. However, something small to mention is that the changes to the max win being raised from 7,595X the bet from the original game. The game's features feel okay to play with, although they feel a bit more on the basic side. The implementation of the game's titular GigaBlox feature feels okay to play with but also not necessarily super exciting outside of every now and then when it leads to a bigger payout. The Free Spins feature does come with the most excitement as it introduces an unlimited win multiplier for every win explosion, leading to some juicy wins. But this is still relatively simple and could be a more engaging feature. Lions GigaBlox comes with a lot of potential that is sadly slightly knocked down because of the fact it is a reskin without any significant changes that could have made the game more interesting or fun. 

Lions GigaBlox is a slot with volatile cascading wins and a stacking unlimited multiplier that can help you in your chase for big wins.
