How to Play Balloonies slot online

«Balloonies» is an online video slot with five reels and twenty pay lines which are always active on default. Symbols are located in three rows at the screen.
Bets per each of twenty active lines have to be equal. It is possible to stake from one to one hundred credits per each of them. This way, the slot accepts from twenty coins to two thousands coins per spin.
This game is provided with basic symbols, elements with advanced functions, a bonus round, free spins and other features described below in the review.
To get a payoff with help of the standard symbols, you need to make a solid chain of several same elements at the same active line. The combination has to begin from the first left reel necessarily. Herewith, only the longest combination at each of the lines is taken in account.
An amount of the win is calculated by two values: the bet per line and the index of formed combination, which can be from x5 to x1000 here. These parameters are multiplied. In case of several combinations formed by results of the same round (at different lines), all payoffs are summarized.
As soon as payoffs are made, symbols included into the combination are blown up and new balloons float at their positions. The name of this feature is Floating Reels. This process can go on while new combinations are made. Then the total amount of the win is withdrawn to the account. The gambling feature is not provided by the rules.
According to the rules, the theoretical payback index of «Balloonies» slot machine is from 92,4% to 96,23%.

Balloonies Symbols, Wild, Scatter

All gaming symbols imaged at the reels of this slot are figures made of balloons. There are different animals, weird creatures and card signs from queen to ace at the screen.
There are also such special symbols as Wild (a red hedgehog), Scatters (a yellow star) and Bonus (colorful balloons). We would like to say more about these elements:

Wild is only imaged at the second, the third and the fourth reels. It is the reason why it can’t make combinations on its own, but it is able to replace other basic symbols in combinations.
Scatter is imaged at the first, second and third reels. Independently of its location at the screen, each of such symbols bring a payoff in amount from two to five bets per line. In case of several combinations, all indexes are multiplied.
Bonus is also imaged at the three first reels only. When it drops anywhere at these three reels, the prize round begins.

You can find more details of the symbols in the pay table.
