Gigablox

For anyone who is unfamiliar with how the Gigablox mechanic works, gigablox are giant symbols that drop in on enlarged reels. Mighty Gigablox symbols up to 6×6 in size can land randomly across the reels.

Joining the Gigablox symbols across the reels is Blank (or Glass) symbol positions, which have no value whatsoever and are more of a burden than anything.

Gold 7 Ladder Feature

On the left side of the reel set sits a ladder with 10 random Cash Prizes up for grabs. In order to be awarded one of the 10 cash prizes, you will need to land a minimum of five 7 symbols across the reels.

  • (5) 7 Symbol – Awards 1x your current bet.
  • (6) 7 Symbols – Awards 5x your current bet.
  • (7-8) 7 Symbols – Awards 15x your current bet.
  • (9-11) 7 Symbols – Awards 30x your current bet.
  • (12-15) 7 Symbols – Awards 100x your current bet.
  • (16-19) 7 Symbols – Awards 300x your current bet.
  • (20-24) 7 Symbols – Awards 1,000x your current bet.
  • (25-29) 7 Symbols – Awards 3,000x your current bet.

7 Gold Gigablox: Our Verdict

7 Gold Gigablox is another nice 4ThePlayer title with plenty in the way of excitement, though we’ll say that the theme here isn’t as exciting as some of the immersive worlds created in past games.

The kind of aesthetics on display here feels like something that would cater to the slot purists uninterested in the modern day wacky themes. It’s almost feels like a throwback to a time when every other slot was an Irish or Pub Fruit slot. There’s still a big demand for games that ticks all the classical boxes, and if we’re honest we love it too. It’s not quite original, yet it’s still dearly loved if you’re enthusiastic about the classical themes like we are.

4ThePlayer are experts when it comes to creating an experience unlike anything you’ve played before with features unique to them, but 7 Gold Gigablox feels a little more uniform. The Gigablox function might limit their creative ability somewhat, but we still think they’ve done a great job in making Yggdrasil’s Gigablox title alluring. Lights Reveal, Lights Shuffle and Giga Summon exponentially amplify the potential of 7 Gold Gigablox, and they kind of surprise you in a way.

To us, the classic aesthetic here is sometimes synonymous with simplistic gameplay, but 7 Gold Gigablox is more than meets the eye. There’s huge potential here with up to 70,000x as a maximum win cap. Will it happen? We certainly trust the word of 4ThePlayer more than most. 90k Yeti has done it in the past, so why not 7 Gold Gigablox?

To summarise, we don’t think 7 Gold Gigablox is as exciting as the likes of 90k Gigablox, or even some of 4ThePlayer’s other titles like 4 Deals with the Devil or 4 Fantastic Fish, but that doesn’t mean they’ve let the quality slip.
