Crazy Pachinko Live (Evolution Gaming) – Overview
A vibrant addition to our legendary live slot games – Crazy Pachinko, an RNG slots game packed with tons of multipliers and a live Pachinko Bonus game!? Immerse into multiple stages of fun, as the game consists of the Qualification slot phase, Top-Up slot phase and culminates with the incredible Pachinko Bonus game with a live game host, featuring guaranteed rewards.
Collect three scatter symbols to qualify for the Pachinko Bonus game, which has been made easier with the introduction of Sticky Scatters. But remember, each phase of the game presents opportunities to snag multipliers that accumulate, paving the way for potentially multiplied payouts.? The Pachinko Bonus game showcases the iconic Pachinko wall, where the game host drops the puck, just like in Crazy Time. All the accumulated multipliers throughout the game will be calculated and added to the wall. Sit back, relax and watch as the puck settles at the bottom of the wall. If you are lucky enough, it might land on a ‘Double’ sector, doubling the multipliers on the wall and triggering a second puck drop for a bigger multiplied win.
Crazy Pachinko Live (Evolution Gaming) – How to Play
The objective of the game is to qualify for the live Bonus game by collecting three scatter symbols during the Qualification phase. Before entering the live Pachinko Bonus game, you’ll be offered the chance to boost your multipliers in the Top-Up phase.
Qualification Phase
The game begins with the Qualification phase, played using a five-reel, three-row slot with 10 fixed win lines, one scatter symbol and seven paying symbols (J, Q, K, A, Cherry, Bell, Wild). The goal is to land three scatter symbols in one spin to qualify for the Pachinko Bonus round. The scatter symbols may bring multipliers or not. If a scatter is on the top row, the next spin nudges it down to the middle row; if a scatter is on the middle row, the next spin nudges it down to the bottom row; and if a scatter is on the bottom row, it disappears on the next spin. After the player has successfully qualified, all scatter multipliers are added and used in the Pachinko Bonus round to calculate the final multipliers. Scatter symbol multiplier values range up to 10x. Players may still get payouts for winning combinations, which are paid out according to the pay table.
Spin Modes
The Qualification slot has three spin modes: Normal spin (set by default); XXXtreme Spin and Feature Buy. To spin the Qualification slot, players select the bet amount and click/tap SPIN.
- The bet selected in Normal mode becomes the player’s base bet and is used to calculate their winnings.
- Activating the XXXtreme Spin mode helps the player qualify faster, by guaranteeing one scatter symbol each spin at the cost of an increased spin bet amount.
- Activating the XXXtreme Spin mode costs 15 times the player’s base bet for one guaranteed scatter symbol, and it increases the chance of getting Scatter multipliers.
- Activating Feature Buy costs 75 times the base bet for three guaranteed scatter symbols and qualification for the Pachinko Bonus game. Feature Buy may grant random multipliers as well.
- Payouts are calculated using the base bet.
The Top-Up Phase
After qualifying for the Pachinko Bonus round, and while waiting for it to begin, players have the option to spin the Top-Up slot for an extra cost to boost their multipliers. The Top-Up phase features a 16-reel slot, where each of the 16 squares is a reel that spins on its own, plus 16 sectors at the bottom with virtual values based on the player’s selected bet — the higher the bet, the higher the multiplier options are; values range from 2x to 100x. To spin the Top-Up slot, the minimum Top-Up bet amount equals the bet the player qualified with (the base bet).
By choosing to increase the Top-Up bet amount, the player also increases the value of multipliers. Multipliers move to a sector below the reel and may stack randomly under the vertical reel. Once the Top-Up time runs out, the player is transferred to the Pachinko Bonus round. If the player joins the Top-Up phase a certain time before the Pachinko Bonus round is about to begin, a pop-up message appears on the screen.
Click/tap BONUS to join the Pachinko Bonus or TOP- UP to stay in Top-Up and wait for the next bonus round. If no decision is made, the player is automatically transferred to the Pachinko Bonus round.
Pachinko Bonus Round
Once the Pachinko Bonus round starts, players can sit back and enjoy the live show led by a game host. The Pachinko Bonus game features an exciting multiplier wall, containing a random puck drop zone at the top and 16 random multipliers in the landing zone at the bottom. The puck is dropped randomly between zones 4 and 12. During the Pachinko Bonus round, Pachinko multipliers are generated for all players equally. Pachinko multiplier values range from 10x up to 200x and are common to all players.
After receiving the Pachinko multipliers, all multipliers (Scatter, Top-Up, and Pachinko) are calculated together: (Pachinko multipliers x Scatter multipliers) + Top-Up multipliers = Final multipliers. The Final multipliers are displayed separately on every Pachinko zone. The game host then drops the puck from the giant Pachinko wall on a randomised dropping zone. The multiplier in the landing zone of the puck will be applied to your bet, determining the final amount of your prize. If, however, the puck lands on the DOUBLE zone, that means there will be a Double Event: the puck will be re-dropped, and all prizes on the multiplier wall are now worth much more!
The Pachinko multipliers are doubled and the final multipliers are then re-calculated: (doubled Pachinko multipliers x Scatter multipliers) + Top Up multipliers = Final multipliers. The Double event can only occur once during the Pachinko Bonus round. The Bonus game ends when the puck lands in a zone with a multiplier.
