Bon Bomb Luxpots Megaways: Slot Overview

Blueprint Gaming partner Lucksome has turned their attention to something a bit more whimsical than we are used to seeing from them. For the studio's first Megaways powered game, the team has put away the mythology and voodoo dolls to craft something a lot fluffier called Bon Bomb Luxpots Megaways. It's a great title and sounds like the kind of name Willy Wonka would give to his most extravagant candy bar. The game lives up to its name, too, being chock full of sweeties, cascades, instant scatter prizes, multipliers, and free spins.

Bon Bomb Luxpots is played on a Megaways game grid consisting of 6 main reels holding 2-7 symbols each and a 4-cell horizontal tracker reel on top that spins side to side. The number of ways maxes out at 117,648 but dynamically varies on each spin as different numbers of symbols land on the reels. Surrounding the grid, which is set into the side of what looks like an ice cream truck, are giant doughnuts, rainbows, and sweets, while a Disney-esque soundtrack bubbles over the top of it all, like Nutella melting on a waffle. It's not as visually over the top as some in this slot category can be, though it should be over the top enough to appeal to proponents of this style.

As is Lucksome's way, players are sprayed with stats the moment Bon Bomb Luxpots Megaways loads, including overall volatility of 7 out of 10, win focus and max win. From there, we find an RTP value of 96.2% when playing in the regular mode or 96.22% when buying a bonus. Available on any device, the bet range isn't huge though sure to satisfy most players, starting at 20 p/c and rising to $/€40 per spin.

Five hard candies start the paytable off, shaped like stars, moons, diamonds, squares, and circles. A line of six of these symbols is worth 1-1.5x the bet. Moving on up are wrapped candies, gummy bears, doughnuts, and cakes as the premiums, paying 2-40x the bet for a six-of-a-kind win. Wilds are only available in the top reel.

Bon Bomb Luxpots Megaways: Slot Features

The most ostentatious way of winning big in Bon Bomb Luxpots is when Candy Bomb scatters land to award cash prizes. As well as this extra are cascades, plus free spins where Candy Bombs become sticky-ish, and multipliers can enter the fray.

Cascades

When a winning way hits, this classic Megaways feature removes it and fills the gaps with symbols falling down from above. If this leads to another win, then the process is repeated until no new win hits.

Candy Bombs

Candy Bombs are scatter symbols which pay a cash prize when at least 3 of them are in view. The more that hit, the bigger the prize will be. Next to the reels is the Candy Bomb Paytable, where at the base level, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, or 13 Candy Bombs are worth a payout of 1x, 5x, 10x, 15x, 30x, 100x, 200x, 500x, 1,000x, 2,000x, or 5,000x the bet, respectively.

Free Spins

Ice cream cones are the free spins scatter symbol, and landing 4, 5, or 6 of them awards 12, 17, or 22 free spins, respectively. In free spins, when Candy Bombs land, they remain on the reels for the next spin. If new Candy Bombs land, they turn sticky as well. When no new Candy Bombs appear, payouts are made according to the Candy Bomb Paytable and the Candy Bombs then fall off. In addition, some Candy Bombs may appear with multipliers of x2 - x5, which increase the prize values on the Paytable. Multipliers are held while new Candy Bombs land and disappear after a Prize is awarded or when no new Candy Bombs land.

Buy Bonus

Opening the Buy Bonus menu presents three possible options:

• X-plosive - 60x the bet for free spins with 10/10 volatility.
• Delux - 100x the bet for free spins with 7/10 volatility.
• VIP - 300x the bet for free spins with 4/10 volatility and a second chance bonus if the winning total is 60x the bet or less.

Bon Bomb Luxpots Megaways: Slot Verdict

Playing Bon Bomb Luxpots Megaways is like being whisked away to a magical world where everything is fluffy, pink, and edible. It runs as slickly as it could possibly be, with each part finished to a high spec, displaying Lucksome's professional attention to detail and willingness to leap from theme to theme with no way of telling where they're going next. Sure, you can say this about most developers to varying degrees. But the last time we crossed swords with Lucksome, they were breathing life into the voodoo slot genre with Voodoo Temple; now they're floating on clouds of cotton candy, dropping comfort food on players.

As a first time Megaways slot, Bon Bomb Luxpots is a strong effort. A 9 Masks of Fire scatter prize system and a candy theme on their own might not be the bluest of blue-sky thinking. However, Bon Bomb Luxpots isn't exactly a predictable game either, so kudos to Lucksome for not surrendering to the free spins with a progressive multiplier route. It's also not just what Lucksome has mixed into the game, but the way they've gone about it, delivering delicious candy art and music alongside tasty stats and features. Megaways' size and cascading capabilities go hand in hand with the way consecutively hitting scatters can stack, and multipliers are the proverbial icing on the cake. Lucksome advises a win focus of 1,000x the bet, but with upper payout capabilities of 25,000x should the candy lords be in a giving mood.

Breaking Bon Bomb Luxpots Megaways down to its constituent parts – Megaways plus 9 Masks of Fire scatter wins might not sound ground-breaking, but the sum is greater than its parts. If you're partial to a candy-filled online slot, then it's worth taking a look at Bon Bomb Luxpots Megaways. It's got everything needed to metaphorically melt the enamel off your teeth.
