With its cute cartoonish icons, KA Gaming’s Arctic Storm is an icy entertainment on a standard 5×3 snow-covered playing field with 243 ways to survive the challenging life of the Arctic tundra.
Sakari and her buddies from the Polar family (Bear, Deer, Puss and Cony) are presented fully absorbed by the hunting activities of the summer (fishing, sleighing and exploring), braving obstacles and numerous dangers (we presume), till the winter will push underground all their activities – when the blizzards come.
We are accustomed to KA Gaming’s titles having a large betting space. However, at this beautiful Arctic frame, we can raise the stakes to 250 CAD in the aspire to catch the strength of the maximum potential the slot offers – 2500x the total bet (in a single spin- via a full screen of Sakari in the base game).
Calculating the 4OAK and 5OAK values aberration (of the top-paid symbols), we deem this machine to have Medium Volatility. As for the fair payback, we quantify RTP of 95.45% – less than the accepted industry average, although this is just our estimation figure (calculated in the length of 10000+/- spins), and the need for speculations is provoked once again by the lack of clarity from the developer himself.
No need for special climatic conditions or hunting/trapping skills here. Just launch the Arctic Storm online slot and enjoy the Inuit lifestyle from your comfy couch. Start for free via the instant link on our site. Or bet with real coins at any of our affiliate casinos.
Bonus Features of Arctic Storm slot
- Cascading win mechanics – Icy winning formations (from any 3+ identical symbols on adjacent reels) break down and evade the grid. The lingering symbols slip down, giving a free space for new symbols to fall. The process is repeated if another winning formation is constructed. This way, multiple wins due to consecutive cascading waves can pay in a spin with 1 bet deposited.
- Wilds – The Northern Lights image is the Wild card in the game. It is a non-paying symbol that substitutes all symbols (except Scatters) and becomes sticky during the cascading waves. Additionally, during the base spins, only at random, any of the last 3 reels can shift into a fully Wild reel – a Wild Storm feature.
- Scatters – The Icy Igloo is the Scatter – is the top value symbol (delivering 5x/50x/250x for 3/4/5OAK respectively). 3+ Scatters exclusively appearing on the 1 cascading spin will initiate the Bonus round. If 3+ Scatters drop in the next cascading wave, it will only bring the payout but no FS.
- Free Spins – 3+ Igloos will trigger 15/20/25 FS. During the Bonus, all consecutive wins have a Progressive Multiplier attached to them (up to 10x), but a re-trigger is not possible.
