"Kalamba Games" has unveiled "Ducks Till Dawn," an inventive online slot machine that offers players a thrilling gaming experience with its 6 reels and 4 rows layout. This game stands out with its 4,096 ways to win, presenting players with ample opportunities to achieve the substantial maximum win of 15,595 times their initial bet. To hit this grand prize, players require a combination of strategy and a bit of luck.
The game's paytable begins with the first five symbols, which are the traditional 9-A card symbols, each uniquely represented on ticket stubs of different colours. These symbols generate payouts when players land three or more of a kind. The higher-value symbols in "Ducks Till Dawn" require just two of a kind to yield a payout. These premium symbols are creatively themed around a zombie-like fairground, featuring dog balloons, snake balloons, and an assortment of stuffed animals such as monkeys, bears, and dolls. Landing six of a kind from these high-value symbols can reward players with payouts ranging from 3.33x to 5x their bet. Additionally, the game includes a wild symbol, depicted as a Zoltar-like character with a crystal ball, which can substitute for any regular pay symbols to form winning combinations.
A central feature of "Ducks Till Dawn'' is the Cash Duct system, which remains active throughout all stages of the game. This system involves duck symbols moving across the reels. When a crosshairs symbol lands on the same position as one or more duck symbols, players are awarded a cash prize. The excitement intensifies when multiple ducks are shot in the same spin, triggering a multiplier on the winning total. These multipliers can increase rapidly, with 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 ducks shot simultaneously resulting in multipliers of x2, x5, x20, x50, or an impressive x200, respectively.
The game also boasts two bonus games, each offering distinct levels of excitement – a blue bonus level 1 and a red bonus level 2. Triggering these bonus rounds requires landing three or more of the corresponding coloured scatter symbols. The number of free spins awarded is determined by the current reading on the Spin Boost metre. Landing additional scatters during the bonus rounds can lead to up to 15 extra free spins, plus a corresponding payout when two or more scatters appear.
