AvatarUX introduces innovative features with new slot Sweet Gummy

18th of Sep 2024 – Award-winning slots studio AvatarUX has released its latest title Sweet Gummy, taking players to a sweet adventure alongside playful jelly creatures in a candy shop. The new game features for the very first time the innovative Wild Reel aimed at boosting potential of the Wild symbols in the game.

The Wild Reel is a 5X1 reel located on the left of the board, containing blanks or different rewards applied to Wilds of the corresponding row on the main board. The rewards present on the reel are either Multiplier or Cloning Wilds. The Multiplier applies a set Multiplier (2x, 3x, 5x, 10x, 25x) to all Wilds and Cloning Wild clones X Times (1,2,3 or 4) each Wild on related row. Rewards are applied from the bottom of the Wild Reel, moving upward.

The Wild symbols in the game can land on any reel, which can be upgraded with a multiplier during the Wild Reel actions. If more than one Wild with a multiplier is present on a payline, the multipliers of all the Wild symbols are added together. During any of the Clone rewards, a Wild can land in the same position as an existing Wild. When this happens, a Merged Wild is formed, and the final multiplier of the Merged Wild is double the sum of the multipliers from the Wild symbols that merged.

Sweet Gummy also presents an exciting Bonus game. During Free Spins, the Wild Reel is fully filled with rewards, truly maximising the potential in the bonus mode. To trigger Free Spins, players need to land on 2 or more bonus symbols, which remain on the screen and are converted into Wild symbols. Landing additional Scatters awards +1 Free Spin. During the Bonus Round, Wild symbols will move down by one position per spin until they exit the grid at the bottom of the reels. Randomly, at the start of a Wild’s movement, any number of Wilds can become Sticky for that spin. These Sticky Wilds will retain their current position and won’t move down during that spin.

The innovative Wild Reel feature aligns perfectly with the idea of the Studio to step away from the win ways and create its very first paylines slot. Featuring 40 paylines with 10,000X max win potential makes the game stand out of the rest of the portfolio. The theme of sweet colourful gummy creatures also resonates very well with the mechanic and offers a fresh new addition to the Studio’s variety of games.

Sweet Gummy will be initially rolled out exclusively to AvatarUX’s partners with direct integrations and released globally later.

Lara Falzon, CEO at AvatarUX, said: “Sweet Gummy is yet another testament to our continuous strive for innovation. The Wild Reel is an engaging new feature that further boosts the potential of already powerful symbols like the Wilds. This fresh new concept is aimed at offering thrilling gameplay that, we believe, players will enjoy and appreciate.

Furthermore, the playful and colourful theme is a great addition to our diverse and exciting portfolio of games and we really look forward seeing the game live across all our partners.”
