Design and Graphics

"Buggin" from ELK Studios immerses players in a picturesque botanical garden inhabited by insects. The game design reveals a blooming garden behind the reels, enhanced by cheerful animations of bugs doing the boogie-woogie. Available on all devices, from mobile phones to desktops, wins are formed by creating clusters of five or more identical symbols. Collected symbols are displayed on a progress indicator above the reels, which also shows the activation of various bonus features. As symbols are collected, new ones fill the empty spaces, increasing chances for additional wins and triggering unique wilds.

Gameplay Overview

"Buggin" is a 7x7 video slot where wins are formed through clusters of five or more symbols. Symbols explode, helping to fill the progress indicator. Bets range from 0.20 to 100, with an RTP of 94% and medium-high volatility. The maximum win can reach up to 10,000 times the stake. The game features symbols of varying value: low-paying (leaves, blueberries, raspberries, toadstools) and high-paying (green grasshopper, blue ant, purple snail, red ladybug), which can increase the stake by 1.5-100 times. Special symbols include the golden B (scatter) and S (super scatter), along with colorful wild symbols (delete, enhance, random, multiply, big), each activating unique features.

Paylines

The game offers 5 paylines.

Bonus Features

"Buggin" presents a video slot with cluster win mechanics and special wild symbols. During gameplay, symbols can appear in large sizes of 2x2 or 3x3, counted as 9 regular symbols. When a winning cluster is created, a wild symbol appears in place of the vanished symbols, which can carry multipliers that increase winnings. These wild symbols remain on the reels while participating in wins, integrating multipliers from other wilds into one. The progress indicator, which resets with each new spin, activates additional wild functions: increasing symbol sizes, adding multipliers, random wild appearance, upgrading symbols to higher-paying ones, and deleting the least valuable symbols. The bonus game is triggered by landing three scatter symbols and offers free spins that can be extended. The super bonus game includes additional features and more free spins. In both types of bonus games, wild symbols become "sticky," enhancing the chances of winning. The game also features the X-iter function, which allows direct activation of bonus games or the addition of wild symbols for a specific bet, increasing the chances of winning in the subsequent spin.
