Bompers Slot Overview
Back with a bang in Elk Studios third instalment in the gravity series is Bompers Slot, following on from the celestial marvels that was Cygnus and IO.
Bompers Slot will send you into a full-blown tilt in a good way with its innovative and epic new pinball style, as well as some other exciting additions such as it’s shooting star, Mystery Bomb and brand-new X-iter feature.
Cygnus and IO were certainly something else, so Bompers Slot has big shoes to fill.
Bompers Slot Theme
Bompers Slot has the celestial and futuristic kind of feel that both Cygnus and IO had but with an added Arcade style with Pinball paddles visible on a neon screen.
Cygnus and IO both had a lot more visual aesthetic to them, but Bompers Slot is a lot more simplistic in the way that it reminds you of a time where Pinball machines were all the rage, rather than creating a new experience with lots of extravagant visuals like the old games.
The music in the game is amazing, with an upbeat dance anthem that will make you want to hit the town.
Betting and Symbols
Betting options in Bompers Slot are as extensive as it comes with many different options to choose from. The lowest option is £/€0.20, and the highest option is £/€100.
There are plenty in between if neither of the two extremities suit you so there’s definitely an option for all kinds of players
The symbols in the game make it even more reminiscent of an older era of gaming, with top symbols comprised of old school fruit machine symbols.
7 is the highest, followed by the BAR, Horseshoe and 4 leaf clover symbols. Low symbols are comprised of fruits, which are Watermelon, Orange, Lemon and Cherry.
The Base Game and Features
