The iGaming industry is constantly developing, and that is a never-ending process. To stay ahead of competitors, industry giants are working on new additions and new game mechanics. That is also the case with GameArt and Blueprint Gaming.

Both companies have recently released brand new game mechanics, and both of them are implemented on two new video slots. In March 2021, GameArt launched a new HyperWays engine that you can test in the Mega Bunny video slot. As for Blueprint Gaming, they released Prize Lines. Fishin’ Frenzy Prize Lines is where you can test the newest game mechanics.

Test GameArt’s HyperWays with Mega Bunny

According to GameArt, their newest HyperWays game engine offers more ways to win in a single spin than any other game out there. A total of winning ways you can expect in a single spin is set at a mind-blowing 60,466,176, which is relatively higher than any other game we have ever tested.

How is that possible, you may think? Well, we will try to explain how the HyperWays mechanics functions. Every single symbol that appears on the reels can come with a 9x multiplier. Now, if you consider that, for example, Mega Bunny comes with a 5×4 reel grid, using simple math, you can easily conclude that players can get up to 60,466,176 winning ways in a single spin.

Of course, every spin will come with a random number of ways to win. Each symbol that lands will come with a different multiplier, starting from 1x to 9x. To win payouts, players need to land matching symbols on successive reels. The slot pays left to right, starting from the leftmost reel. Land matching symbols on at least three consecutive reels if you want to win a payout.

If our sources are correct, the next game that will operate on the HyperWays game engine will have the football legend Maradona as a main “actor.” If, for example, GameArt decides to increase the size of the reel grid, the number of ways to win in HyperWays can go even higher than the current 60,466,176. Note that it will not be an easy task to land all symbols with a top 9x multiplier.

More About Mega Bunny HyperWays

There is no better way to test the newest GameArt’s game engine than to enjoy the Mega Bunny video slot. The 2021 release is waiting for you on a colorful farm, the home of different animals and vegetables. Behind the reels, you can enjoy a lovely landscape, with a blue sky, meadows, forests, and a windmill in the background. Two lazy chicks will keep you company as you spin the reels.

There are different kinds of eggs and vegetables that appear on the reels. The Bunny is the only animal among them, functioning as a Wild that substitutes all regular symbols. Easter Eggs act as Scatters that trigger free spins. Mega Bunny Wild can come with win multipliers up to 5x and can cover an entire reel. Thanks to Cascading Reels, winning symbols are removed, and new ones fill the blanks.

Five Scatters are needed for the Free Spins feature to be triggered. Players get 8 free spins with guaranteed Wilds on the reels. One of the Wilds that you get at the beginning of each free spin is the Multiplier Wild. Multipliers can go up to 5x. The Multiplier Wild will remain on the reels until there are no more new winning cascades.

You will love the fact that the game offers a top payout of 50,000x bet in a single spin. Such wins can only be expected during the Free Spins feature, thanks to the Multiplier Wilds. Remember that the game is of high variance, so it will take you a while before you land mind-blowing payouts.

Blueprint Gaming Offers Prize Lines

Blueprint Gaming is another software development company looking to cement its market position by developing innovative content. Fishin’ Frenzy is one of their most successful games, and, after the Progressive Jackpot version and the Megaways version, it was only normal that Blueprint tries out their newest game engine on Fishin’ Frenzy.

Prize Lines is here to reach a new audience, especially among bingo players. The whole concept of Prize Lines is based on landing icons and filling the lines to win payouts. Each game comes with five spins. Gamers place a bet, and they get 5 spins to try and land as many Fish needed to complete as many as 12 lines at once.

The game mechanics utilizes the Hold Over feature as well. After all five spins are over, players have the chance to continue spinning the reels, looking for new fish to land, but that will cost them a certain price. As they get closer to filling all the cells with fish, the price of additional spins will only get higher.

Fishin’ Frenzy to Promote Prize Lines

As we have already said, the first game with the Prize Lines game engine is Fishin’ Frenzy. We have a 5×5 grid gamers will play on, and you get 5 spins for one bet. The trick is to land as many Fish as you can in those five spins, to complete as many lines as you can. The game is placed under the sea, and the Fisherman is there to keep you company as you spin the reels.

Apart from Fish, you can also land the Fisherman, and once you do, the Fisherman will add more Fish on blank positions before turning into a Fish himself. The trick is to fill at least 5 lines if you want to get paid. The more lines you fill, the bigger the cash prize. Once you reach 8 lines, you will get 1 Frenzy Spin. Filling all 12 lines is called a Full House, and it delivers 10 Frenzy Spins.

In Frenzy Spins, you land Fish that carry instant wins. Each Fish that you land will deliver a cash payout. You can land up to 25 Fish on the grid during Frenzy Spins, meaning that you get 25 instant prizes.
