7 Elements is no exception with its Future Powers feature, which regularly unlocks powerups throughout the year and twice a week for you to utilise within the bonus round!

What other slot do you know that takes this approach? We’re not sure one exists. The question is, does 7 Elements have a lot of replayability due to this? or is it simply not worth the dedication?

Let’s find out.

7 Elements Betting and Symbols

There are a variety of betting options for players to choose from in 7 Elements, For those who prefer a lower stake, the minimum bet available is £/€0.10 per spin. For those who prefer a higher stake, the maximum bet available is £/€40 per spin, with a selection of options in betwen the two.

Low paying symbols fall to a collection of 7 Element symbols. The symbols representing Water, Fire and Ice all share the same pay value, followed by Rock, Lightning, Earth and Air symbols.

7 Elements is a 6 reel slot with 4,096 ways to win. In order to form a winning combination, you will need to connect 3 or more (or 2 or more of the highest paying symbols) from left to right, starting from the left-most reel.

Seems simple enough, but you’re probably wondering what the 7 Elements Future Powers Feature is?

Future Powers Feature

At the start of 7 Elements, you will begin with a Current Power which can be swapped out at any time for another. In order to swap out your current power, you will need to unlock Future Powers. Future Powers can be unlocked randomly over time.

The next available Future Power can be seen at the far right corner of the screen, with a countdown to when it will eventually become active. Once a Future Power unlocks, it will automatically activate.

Each Future Power can deliver any of the below Modifiers.

• Cash Prize – A symbol lands with a Cash Prize attached to it, this happens in the base game only.
• Double Stack – A symbol can land double stacked on the reels, increasing ways to win. This only happens in the base game.

7 Elements: Our Verdict

7 Elements probably isn’t the best thing we’ve ever seen from 4ThePlayer, but in our eyes, its another shining example of their dedication to be different.

The way in which the game changes over time with different Future Powers feature means that you could potentially be looking at a different game every time you unlock one, and once you’ve unlocked it, its yours to keep. Each of the power ups brings its own unique feature into the game, and the customisation really is appreciated from a player perspective.

It’ll certainly be interesting to see what sort of wins materialise here, and what set-ups were used to achieve them. We honestly couldn’t tell you which we think is the best, because all of the choices really do seem like equally good options.

7 Elements ticks another box in terms of potential. 25,000x is the maximum possible win, and we’re quite confident that 7 Elements could pull it off. Few dare to put their money where their mouth is when it comes to achieving the maximum win cap, but we’ve seen it a few times now with some of 4ThePlayer’s slots, like 90k Yeti.

Overall, 7 Elements may look different, play different and feel different when compared to your conventional slot, but 4ThePlayer are different, and their slots are very easy to understimate, which is a mistake as far as we’re concerned.
