The first-ever Splitz video slot saw the light of day in the very beginning of 2020. Once again we are travelling back to the times of the ancient Aztec civilization because we all know that their temples were packed with gold and other treasures. Since the 2020 release is an Yggdrasil release, the visuals are simply amazing, as well as the soundtrack. Players will go on a quest for Splitz Mystery Stacks feature, which can split up into 9 identical icons. Hybrid Scatters will help you trigger both respins and free spins. Playable from $0.10 per spin, the Yggdrasil product features five reels and offers from 243 up to 248,832 ways to win.
When talking about the rules of the game, the 2020 release is not that complicated, since it features five reels, three rows and offers 243 ways to win, at least in the beginning. The number of ways to win can become bigger, but, but more about that later. Betting is fixed at 20 coins per spin, but the coin denomination can be changed and players can wager from $0.10 to $20 per single spin. The slot pays left to right, beginning from the far-left reel. Three of a kind is the minimum for landing payouts.
As for the visuals, they are simply superb, and we did not expect anything less from Yggdrasil Gaming. The reels of the 2020 release are set deep in the jungle, at the very entrance of an ancient temple. High-paying symbols are represented by valuable Gemstones, and Snake, Crocodile, Bird, Lizard, and Fish are used for low-value icons. The Hybrid Free Spins Scatter triggers both free spins and respins. During respins, Scatter is also Wild that substitutes for all other icons.
The Splitz mechanics is used for the very first time in Temple Stacks. Splitz Mystery Stacks will appear in the base game and can reveal from 3 to 9 instances of a randomly chosen symbol. Also, it will increase the number of ways to win. More than one Splitzs Mystery Stacks can appear on the reels at the same time. Land two hybrid Scatters and you will trigger a respin, with the two reels containing Scatters being held in position. Scatters become Wilds for that particular respin, and you can land additional Scatters to trigger the Free Spins feature.
Three or more Scatters trigger the Free Spins feature, it’s as simple as that. There are four levels in the Free Spins feature – Steel, Bronze, Silver, and Gold. All four of them are offering a different number of free spins and a different number of Splitz Mystery Stacks during the feature. Up to 70 freebies can be triggered in the Steel level, with up to 9 Splitz Mystery Stacks, while in the Gold Level, you can get up to 14 free spins with up to 12 Splitz Mystery Stacks.
The 2020 release might seem a bit confusing in the beginning, and players will have to play the game for a little while before they completely understand how everything functions in the Aztec temple. Nevertheless, the Yggdrasil product is a very good game that offers up to 248,832 ways to win in the Free Spins feature, and up to 25,000x the bet can be won in a single spin.
