ABOUT ARCADE BOMB  

Arcade Bomb is a classic fruit-themed game designed to recreate the nostalgic feel of an actual arcade slot game. Red Tiger went for a retro theme with this slot while adding a modern twist to ensure the slot is just as appealing to a modern audience. It's the perfect slot for gamers looking to take a fun trip down memory lane.

The slot’s background is a peaceful beach with palms and calm blue waters. However, most of these background features are blocked by the colourful reels and the jackpot drop counter on the side. All you’re left with is a colourful futuristic-looking background with tiny floating shapes. 

The game symbols are simple, and despite the overall modern design of the slot, the symbols all look like they were taken straight out of a vintage slot machine. The design is just what you might expect from a retro classic slot spiced up with modern twists

GAMEPLAY 

WAGER

Arcade Bomb has a five-by-three reel setup with 20 fixed paylines. To win cash prizes in this slot, you need to create combinations of the same symbols across a payline. All symbol combinations pay in either direction and winning patterns can even start from the middle of the reels. The minimum stake amount needed to hit the spin button is €0.10. 

SYMBOLS

As a fruit-themed slot, this slot unsurprisingly features familiar fruit symbols including watermelons, cherries, lemons, strawberries and oranges. You’ll also find some popular arcade-style symbols like lucky sevens, bar signs and golden bells. 

The fruit symbols pay between 0.2x to 2.5x, with the watermelon symbol being the most valuable. The bar symbol pays six times your wager for a five-symbol combination, the bell pays 12.5x while the lucky seven symbol pays 50x for a maximum payout of five symbols. 

There are no Scatters or traditional Wild symbols in this slot. However, this slot has a bomb symbol that appears randomly on the reels and creates random symbol patterns on the reels when a countdown elapses. 

SPECIAL FEATURES 

The simplicity of Arcade Bomb is carried over into the slot’s bonus features as well. This game has only one bonus feature, which is the locked reel bomb feature. The bomb is a special non-paying symbol that shows up randomly on the reels. At least one bomb drops between three to ten spins. 

Each bomb has a different colour and carries a countdown number. The bomb will remain locked on the reels until the counter elapses. Once it does, the bomb explodes and creates a specific symbol pattern with the symbols adjacent to it, transforming all of them into the same random symbol. 

The bomb's blast pattern formed depends on its colour. Blue bombs create a horizontal blast pattern, yellow bombs explode to create patterns on a vertical line, purple bombs blast diagonally while the Green bomb creates a blast pattern on a vertical and horizontal line. If an exploding bomb creates a winning pattern, all the associated win lines will be paid out after the explosion. 

This game also has different jackpot offers. There’s a 10-minute jackpot drop, a daily jackpot drop, and the super jackpot. A jackpot metre on the side of the reels shows how much has been accumulated for each jackpot.

OUR THOUGHTS ON ARCADE BOMB SLOT

The Arcade Bomb slot machine does a good job of leveraging the nostalgia associated with classic fruit-themed slots. It’s the perfect slot for players looking for an old-school favourite slot in a modern skin. However, this slot is a little disappointing as far as special features go. The only bonus on offer is the sticky bomb, and with no extras to look forward to, things are bound to get boring with time.
