They’re back, and somehow, the Pirots have gone back to the prehistoric era, with big wins, features, and dinosaurs with them this time.
So, let’s find out more below.
Slot Features:
Collection Metre
The collection metre sits above the game grid, keeping track of the collected amber symbols and wild symbol count. This continues until the birds are unable to collect more symbols. When the metre is full, one pending feature symbol release is added. Up to 3 feature symbol releases can be stacked, all awarded simultaneously.
A feature symbol release converts several random amber symbols into random feature symbols. This occurs before an egg symbol hatches, before the meteor strikes, as part of the first free drop, or when birds can’t collect any more symbols. Feature symbols can also just randomly land in the reels. This is what is available, plus their effects when collected:
Upgrade symbols – Upgrade an amber symbol’s payout level by 1 to 3 steps.
Upgrade all – upgrades the payout level of all four amber symbols by 1 to 3 steps.
Coins – pays its displayed value when collected. The MAX WIN coin awards the remaining amount needed to reach the maximum win.
Wild – substitutes for any amber symbol at their current respective payout level.
Red Button – triggers a meteor strike that explodes symbols (not feature symbols) and expands the game grid.
Egg: When collected, a dinosaur hatches at the end of the game round. Birds are scared away and land in new positions.
Popcorn – fills empty spaces with popcorn when a bird collects symbols. This allows birds to cross empty spaces one time to reach other symbols.
Mushroom: This transforms a cluster of amber symbols next to a bird into the same colour as the bird that collected the mushroom. It may also convert amber symbols into feature symbols.
Free Spins Bonus Game
Collecting three dinosaur skull scatters in the base game triggers five free spins. The free spins start on the current grid size, and the progress on the symbol collection metre is retained. If there are pending feature symbols released at the start of the bonus game, they are released as part of the first drop.
The size of the grid, collection metre progress, the collection of scatter symbols and the amber symbol payout levels all persist during free spins. Collecting three scatter symbols awards additional free spins.
X-iter
From the X-iter, players can activate these modes for a specific cost:
Bonus Hunt – 3 times the bet for a drop with four times the chance to trigger the bonus game.
Popcorn Fiesta – 10x the bet for a drop with the popcorn feature activated.
Maximum Grid Size – 25x the bet for a drop played on the maximum-sized grid.
Bonus – 100x the bet to buy the free spins round.
Super Bonus – 500x the bet to buy the free spins round on the maximum grid size where all upgrade symbols upgrade all amber symbols.
Summary: Elk’s Xiter features are on display again with Pirots 2, and as with the first game, you’ve never wanted to strangle a bird as much as these when they decide not to swap with each other or land where they need to to create you some wins.
As with any Elk game with the Xiter features, you’ll either make money or have your pants pulled down for 500x your stake, so please be careful if you buy these features.
