CritterPop Slot Review 2022<\/h1>\n

CritterPop<\/strong> from Avatar UX<\/a> continues the long-running PopWins series with other-wrodly visuals with enchanting gameplay to match.<\/p>\n

CritterPop is the thirteenth instalment in the PopWins series, yet Avatar UX are finding ways to keep it fresh, but is CritterPop another to push the boundaries of the PopWins mechanic? or is it feeling a little stale after so many instalments?<\/p>\n

Some may argue that the PopWins series has had its day, and that Avatar UX should move onto new horizons with other games.<\/p>\n

Perhaps even Avatar UX themselves think this way. After all, their upcoming slot Zombie aPOPalypse features a new MultiPop mechanic. CritterPop could well be the final PopWins slot, but will it go out with a bang?<\/p>\n

Let’s travel to a world unlike our own to explore the nebulas of the ethereal CritterPop<\/p>\n

\"CritterPop<\/p>\n

CritterPop Base Game and Features<\/h2>\n

CritterPop is a 5 reel slot with up to 65,536 ways to win.<\/strong> Winning combinations are formed when 3 or more<\/strong> of the same symbol type land from left to right or right to left on adjacent reels, starting from the left-most or right-most reel.<\/p>\n

The minimum bet available here is \u00a3\/\u20ac0.20 per spin<\/strong> and the maximum bet available is \u00a3\/\u20ac100 per spin<\/strong>, with plenty of other options in between the two. CritterPop has a theoretical RTP of 96.1%<\/strong> and a maximum win capacity of 20,000x.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sticking to tradition, AvatarUX are putting their PopWins mechanic<\/strong> to the test once again. Each time a winning combination is formed, all winning symbols will ‘pop’ and disappear from the reels. All empty symbol positions will be replaced by 2 new symbols<\/strong>, increasing the reel height.<\/p>\n

The reels will continue to expand as long as there is winning combinations present on the reels, up to 6 symbols<\/strong> in the base game and 8 symbols<\/strong> in the Free Spins round.<\/p>\n

In terms of symbols, the highest paying regular symbol in CritterPop is the Mammoth,<\/strong> followed by the Tiger, Fox, Owl, Bird and Frog.<\/strong> Low-paying symbols are standard Ace, King, Queen, Jack and Ten<\/strong>. There is also a Wild symbol<\/strong> present in the Free Spins round which substitutes for all other symbols except Scatters.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Before you can begin spinning, you will have the option to activate the Ante Bet feature<\/strong> at the bottom right of the screen.<\/p>\n
