Big Bang Boom Slot Review

3, 2, 1! The newest video slot exploding out of the NetEnt studio is Big Bang Boom. The colours are neon, the game grid is expanding, and the bonus features are fiery, all leading up to a possible total win of 4300x.

Big Bang Boom’s Theme and Graphics

The backdrop of NetEnt's Big Bang Boom  slot is a brick wall covered in graffiti and some of those ads for piano lessons with rip-off strips. The game symbols are neon bright and have an anarchic, sort of spray-painted look, with smiley faces, hearts, crowns and butterflies. The music also has an edgy vibe that adds to the alternative chaotic feel of the game perfectly. There’s not a strong theme holding the game together as such, but what is there works very effectively to create an immersive playing experience.

RTP and Variance

Big Bang Boom has a variable RTP rate, but the baseline figure is 96.07%. It has high volatility and a max win of 4300x. 

How to Play Big Bang Boom

Starting to play the Big Bang Boom slot is a cinch, but there are a few things to be aware of. Here’s a quick guide to getting started:

1. Hit the purple spin button to start the reels.
2. Use the + and - buttons to raise or lower the stake. 
3. Check out the game rules and paytable by clicking on the ‘i’ symbol at the top of the screen.
4. Adjust the sounds using the speaker icon.
5. Play Big Bang Boom responsibly by setting yourself a time limit for your playing session and taking regular breaks.

How to Win at Big Bang Boom

Big Bang Boom has a slightly unusual set-up. It’s played initially on a four-reel, four-row game grid, but this can grow to an eight-row, ten-reel game grid that houses between a massive 256 and 10,000 paylines. The grid can only expand vertically, and wins are scored by matching at least three and up to four OAK symbols.

Top Symbols

As in most slots, the winning symbols in Big Bang Boom are divided up into low and high payers. The low payers are J-A, which give you up to 0.2x the bet for matching four OAK. The high-paying symbols include purple hearts and yellow crowns, and they have a payout potential of up to 1x.

Betting Limits

Bets in the Big Bang Boom slot start at 0.25.

Max-win 4,300x

Volatility High

Top RTP 97.07%

Big Bang Boom Bonus Features

Big Bang Boom is home to plenty of bonus features, from free spins to exploding bombs.

Super Bombs

When new squares on the grid become visible, they can reveal up to seven different types of bombs, which can all explode in a slightly different way to reveal an extra win multiplier and trigger the Avalanche feature.

• Vertical: when vertical bombs explode they remove the top and bottom symbols next to it.
• Horizontal: removes symbols to the left and right of it.
• Diagonal: removes adjacent symbols at the corners of its position.
• Plus-pattern: removes symbols in a cross-shaped pattern.
• Omni-directional: removes all adjacent symbols around its position.
• Cluster: will reveal three to five random positions.
• Persistent: this bomb can only be triggered during the free spins bonus not the base game.

Avalanche Feature

The Avalanche feature can be triggered by a winning way or a bomb explosion. Winning symbols will disappear from the board and new symbols will fall on to the grid. This will carry on until no more wins can be scored. If you love games with a cascading wins feature, then you might also love Reel King Megaways from Inspired Gaming, which provides up to 117,649 ways to win.

Big Bang Boom Review Summary

Big Bang Boom is another hit, as you’d expect from a studio like Net Ent. It doesn’t have such a strong theme as some other slots, but it’s tightly tied together with the explosive bonus features. However, we have to admit we were surprised at the win potential, which is not as bountiful as that provided by other slots from this maker.

Bombs Away for Free Spins And More!

Gameplay in Big Bang Boom sure is explosive, and the expanding grid is a quirky feature that makes this slot stand out from the crowd.
