Grim The Splitter Dream Drop Review

The Dream Drop range keeps getting new installments, but it should be noted that you can also play a non-jackpot version of this Relax Gaming release. Grim The Splitter Dream Drop is an unusual fortune teller slot where the cards are dealt by the grim reaper himself. The atmosphere is tense and mysterious all the way, and the innovative Splitter mechanic clone reels for larger payouts in all stages of the game.

The main attraction in the Dream Drop version is, of course, the Jackpot Pick Game, and it triggers at random times. You need to qualify via an initial spin to get to the actual jackpot game though, and the largest prize has an upper limit of £10,000,000. Up to 10,000x your stake can be won in the regular game, and this is more likely to happen when reels can split in up to 3 during the bonus round.

Grim The Splitter Dream Drop Slot Features

Landing 5 of a kind wins pays 4 to 25 x your stake, but up to 20 of a kind wins are possible in the bonus round. The latter awards between 120 and 750 x your stake, and you can also land Wild symbols whose core function is to step in for pay symbols to help complete wins. Wilds also trigger the Splitter feature, as we shall see below.

The Splitter Feature triggers on every reel that contains a wild symbol, and it splits the relevant reel or reels in two. This clones both the wild and the regular symbols on that reel, and you can only split a reel one time per spin in the base game. All 5 reels can be split though, and this is how you can land wins above 5 of a kind.

The Bonus Round triggers from 3 scatters in view, and this awards 7 free spins. Additional triggering scatters above the minimum of 3 awards +1 additional free spin per scatter. Scatters also give you +1 free spin added to your tally when they appear during the bonus round, and the scatters can be split to award +1 free spin each.

The triggering scatters are stored above the reels as potential Splits, and you can store up to 3 splits per reel. Wild symbols are also stored as splits when they appear in the bonus round, and they initiate the splits feature first. Each reel can split in 3 at best, and this is how you can get up to 20 of a kind wins.

The Dream Drop Spin can trigger at the start of any regular spin, and you need 5 DD symbols on the 5 reels to get to the Jackpot Pick Bonus Game. You will pick from 15 face-down cards, and you win the first jackpot that 3 matching cards display. The Rapid, Midi, Maxi, Major, and Mega Jackpots start at £1, £5, £100, £25,000, and £500,000, respectively, and the big one can go as high as £10 million.

Review Summary

We really enjoyed the voodooish atmosphere in Grim The Splitter Dream Drop, and it feels like you’re sitting across a mysterious fortune teller you stumbled upon in some seedy Bourbon Street side alley. The fact that you never get to see the opposite person’s face adds to the intrigue, and not least when he turns into the grim reaper in the bonus round. The way the cards flip to reveal new symbols is also kind of satisfying to behold, despite all the dead spins you get in the DD version.

It should be noted that you are better off playing the non-jackpot version unless you’re actually chasing the jackpots. The math model is far more favorable, with more frequent bonus round triggers and a higher RTP. The splitter feature can lead to solid payouts in its own right as well, topping out at 10,000x your stake. Still, if you want potentially life-changing wins, the Dream Drop version is your best option (just wait until the jackpots have climbed to a satisfying level).
