Shadow Raiders MultiMax Review

Yggdrasil is not afraid of letting partner studios have a go with their innovative features, and Bang Bang Games has really risen to the occasion with this swashbuckling MultiMax release. Shadow Raiders MultiMax is not your ordinary pirate slot, however, as this ship is run by zombies who’re deeply into the voodoo religion. You get to meet the rather nasty crew as symbols on the grid, and this is a visually engaging buccaneer tale all the way.

Players familiar with the MultiMax concept aren’t in for too many surprises, perhaps, as the name of the game is increasing the reel multipliers via wilds that spawn per dropdown win. This has been seen in previous installments for sure, but you can also get help from Booty Bomb mystery symbols in this game. The reel multipliers keep building to unknown heights in the bonus round, and this is how you’re most likely to close in on the 15,000x potential.

Shadow Raiders MultiMax Slot Features

The premium character symbols pay between 1 to 5 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins, and the golden skull Wild symbol steps in for pay symbols to help complete and/or improve wins. Winning symbols are removed via the Dropdown mechanic, and the empty positions are filled by new and/or existing symbols dropping down from above. A wild spawns in one empty position per dropdown, and this repeats as long as you keep winning.

Each reel comes with a MultiMax Multiplier Skull above it, and wilds increase the reel multiplier by +1 for every reel they appear on. The multiplier starts at x1 per reel, and it resets between base game spins. The reel multipliers will boost all wins for the involved reels, which means each reel multiplier is applied accordingly.

After a dropdown win has occurred, and the wild symbol has spawned, Booty Bombs can drop to a set of empty positions. The Booty Bombs are similar to mystery symbols, as they all reveal the same matching symbol. They can also reveal instant cash prizes, and cash prizes are also boosted by the relevant reel multipliers.

You need 3+ bonus scatters in view to trigger the Raiders Bonus Round, and this gives you 8 free spins. The MultiMax Reel Multipliers never reset for as long as the bonus round lasts, and you can gamble for additional free spins before the bonus round starts.

This is optional, however, and non-UK players can purchase 8 free spins for 100x the stake. If eligible, you can also pay 350x your stake to get 14 free spins. The Bonus Boost ante bet costs 50 % more per spin, and doubles your bonus round chances.

You get to see a decent reel multiplier win just as the 5-minute highlights video starts, and then we purchase the top-tier bonus round at 0:43 into the video. The feature went on for a good while, and we landed some decent payouts as well. You can check it all out for yourself by hitting the play button below.

Review Summary

Bang Bang Games has not let their stab at the MultiMax system go to waste, which is a relief since the results from other Yggdrasil partners have been varied. Shadow Raiders MultiMax is a highly entertaining voodoo zombie pirate installment, and the audiovisual experience is engaging all the way. The harbor area looks creepy enough under the stars, and you’re taken into the zombie captain’s cabin in the bonus round.

Bang Bang Games hasn’t really done anything to revolutionize the concept that was first seen in Yggdrasil’s own MultiFly though, but you get Booty Boost mystery symbols to boot in this game. We like that these can also reveal instant cash prizes that are also multiplier boosted, and everything is taken up a notch when the reel multipliers never reset in the bonus round. The 15,000x potential makes this an attractive prospect, and a highly capable installment in an overall uneven series.
