Cosmic Clusters! – Overview
Pragmatic Play has released a new online slot game called Cosmic Cluster!
As the name implies, it’s a cluster pays slot game with a space theme.
The game uses 6 reels which are each 6 symbols high and comes with a cluster pays mechanism. 5 or more of the same symbols, which are horizontally and/or vertically connected, count as a winning combination.
There are also cascading symbols, or reactions. So any winning combination is removed from the reels and new symbols are added on top. Creating the option for another win.
You will find low paying gems and all sorts of space themed symbols. There are also scatter symbols on all reels. Wilds can also appear, but are also added because of reactions, more on that below. Lastly there are also Money Symbols, which can also appear on all reels, just as normal symbols.
Cosmic Clusters! comes with a maximum payout of 5.000 times your bet and is a medium volatile slot game.
Features
Random Wilds
After a winning cluster is paid, all winning symbols in the cluster, but also all instances of that symbol on the reels, are removed.
Symbols that are removed but not part of the winning cluster can randomly transform into money symbols.
The winning cluster that is removed will leave behind a wild symbol.
Money Symbols
Money symbols can appear as Bronze, Silver and Gold, with values of 0,5-2x bet, 3x-8x bet and 10-1.000x bet respectively.
When you make a winning cluster with Money symbols, the values are added together and paid.
All Money Symbols from the winning cluster are then removed and will leave behind a new Money Symbol with the total amount as the new value.
Free Spins feature
3, 4, 5 and 6 scatter symbols will award 12, 15, 18 and 21 free spins respectively.
During free spins all Money symbols on the reels, that haven’t been used, will fall down to the bottom of the reels before a new spin.
They will stay there until they are used or the end of the feature.
All symbols that are removed because of a winning cluster, except the winning cluster itself, will change into Money Symbols.
2 or more scatters during free spins will add 2 more free spins.
Bonus Buy
Besides a couple of ante bets, you are also to buy free spins for 100x bet. For 300x bet you can buy free spins with only silver and gold money symbols. And for 1.000x bet there are only gold money symbols during free spins.
Verdict
Cosmic Clusters! is a fun new Pragmatic Play slot game.
It uses something they are very familiar with, cluster pays. And the features work well together.
Especially during free spins when those Money Symbols stay on the reels until they are used. And a lot more Money Symbols are added, you can get a lot of big wins.
Overall I think it’s a good game. Maybe not the most innovating or different. But a good game.
Let me know your thoughts in the comments section. You can find Cosmic Clusters! at all online casinos offering Pragmatic Play slots.
