Tiki Bonanza Slot Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Tiki Bonanza Review

We have visited tropical beaches more than a few times in our slot reviewing mission, and Tiki Bonanza comes with a fairly standard presentation in that regard. You get large and colorful tiki mask symbols as the premiums, and they fill the whole reel when landing fully in view. A crab runs around in front of the 5x3 grid at times, and you can choose to lock reels after each spin.

The Locking option is not free though, and locked spins become more expensive the more you stand to gain. You can use this feature to trigger the bonus round, which comes with an expanded 5x5 grid with 3,125 ways to win. You can win up to 5,000x your stake, at best, and this is a simple and somewhat enjoyable release that doesn’t attempt to be anything too special either.

Tiki Bonanza Slot Features

The 3 different-color Tiki Mask premium symbols come fully stacked in size 1x3, but they don’t necessarily land fully in view. Anyway, 5 matching premium symbols pay 8x or 10x your stake, and a full screen of the top-tier red tiki mask pays 2,430x your stake in the base game. The coconut drink Wild symbol steps in for pay symbols to help complete wins, and it does not hold any value of its own.

You can choose to lock any reel you wish after each spin, but this will change the bet size.

The price you pay per spin with locked reels depends on what symbols are locked on those reels. We paid around 11x the regular stake for 2 locked scatters, for example, which should give you a ballpark idea what to expect.

You need 3 scatters in view to trigger the Bonus Round, and the grid expands to 5x5 in size during the feature. You get 10 free spins, and the expanded grid comes with 3,125 ways to win. This is the only thing that changes from the base game. Non-UK players, and anyone eligible, can purchase the bonus round for 66x the stake.

However, keep in mind that this lowers the RTP to 95.31 %.

Review Summary

Well, Tiki Bonanza isn’t exactly brimming with innovation and exciting features, but it comes with nice enough tropical beach visuals and tiki mask artwork. The ability to lock any reels you wish gives you some freedom to play around in the base game, but lucrative locks will soon become expensive. Locking 2 wilds is probably a good idea, if you can, but it’s mighty frustrating to pay out your nose when the crucial 3rd scatter decides to be elusive.

We had our fingers crossed for some exciting extras in the bonus round, but all you get is a grid expansion. The day turns to night in the feature, but you’re still laying around at the same beach with an admittedly nice looking starry sky in the background. The expanded grid can lead to larger payouts thanks to the 1x3 size tiki mask symbols, and up to a decent 5,000x your stake is possible. We’ll probably not be back for more, however, and the RTP is tad below par as well.

Pros

• 1x3 sized premium symbols
• Lock any reel for a calculated price
• FS w/ expanded 5x5 grid w/ 3,125 ways
• Win up to 5,000x your stake

Cons

• RTP of 95.63 % is a bit below average
