00:00We love the classic fruit slots, but it's normal to tire of the same old thing day in

00:04and day out.

00:06The unprecedented expansion of the online slot market kick-started the efforts to reinvent

00:11the wheel and create more engaging games.

00:13In this video, we introduce innovative slot features and mechanics designed to provide

00:18more winning opportunities, generate truly massive prizes, and make spinning the reels

00:23so much more fun.

00:25Cascading Reels

00:26Also called Tumbling, Collapsing, and Avalanche, the Cascading Reels debuted in 2011 in Net

00:32and Slot, Gonzo's Quest.

00:35After a win, symbols that are part of the winning combination disappear from the screen to be

00:39replaced by new icons that can help complete more lucky combos.

00:44The process continues until no more wins are formed.

00:47Basically, it's all about getting more bang for your buck.

00:50You make one bet, but with a little help from Lady Luck, you can enjoy the fruits of several

00:54spins.

00:55Among a great many universal favorites with this feature are Reacttoons by Play'n Go,

01:01Sweet Bonanza by Pragmatic Play, Sugar Pop by BetSoft, and Tahiti Gold by Elk Studios, to

01:07name just a few.

01:09Cluster Pays

01:10The Cluster Pays mechanic changed the way players can win in a slot game.

01:15Instead of traditional pay lines, you need to form clusters of matching symbols.

01:19The bigger the group, the more impressive the prize.

01:22The roster of Cluster games is pretty extensive, including Astro Legends from Foxium, Mahjong

01:2988 by Play'n Go, Golden Glip by Quickspin, and many other titles.

01:34Even though the concept has been known since the early 2000s, borrowed from Tetris and Candy

01:39Crush Saga,

01:40Aloha Cluster Pays, launched in 2016, is the first game with this feature.

01:45Mega Clusters

01:46In 2020, Big Time Gaming took the Cluster Pays concept to the next level, introducing the

01:53Mega Clusters mechanic.

01:54Whenever you land a win, each of the winning symbols will split into four smaller ones,

01:59creating the potential for massive wins.

02:01The feature debuted in Sparkling Star Clusters, where during the Free Spins mode, the expanded

02:068x8 play field can fit as many as 256 icons for really epic rewards.

02:13Mega Waze

02:14Arguably the world's most popular innovative mechanic, BTG's Mega Waze doesn't need a special

02:20introduction.

02:21The launch of Dragonborn showcased a revolutionary reel engine, able to generate up to 117,649

02:29win in a single spin.

02:31Since then, a great many software providers have licensed this sophisticated system from

02:35the Australian company, which in 2021 was acquired by Evolution.

02:39Today, players are spoiled for choice when it comes to Mega Waze slots that enjoy huge popularity

02:44among gamblers of all styles and preferences.

02:47Split

02:48One of the many innovative reel mechanics designed by Yggdrasil, Split is another exciting way to

02:55deliver big prizes.

02:57Players can take advantage of mystery symbols, able to split and form longer lines, bigger

03:01clusters, more ways to win, or even add extra scatter icons.

03:06When a split's mystery symbol shows up on the reels, it will immediately split into a

03:09random number of pieces, which will vary from one online slot to the next.

03:14During the next phase, all the mystery symbols will turn into regular icons to reveal winning

03:18combinations and deliver payouts.

03:21High Volatility Temple Stacks was the first splits game to hit the virtual casino floors

03:25in January 2020.

03:27That same year, it was followed by Neon Rush and Synchronite, which had a stunning winning

03:31potential of 1,280,000 euros.

03:36Gigablocks

03:37Gigablocks by Yggdrasil was premiered as huge blocks of matching icons in Lucky Nico.

03:43In the base game, they appear as 2x2, 3x3, and 4x4 symbols, while in the Free Spins feature,

03:49players can benefit from huge 5x5 or 6x6 chunks packed with staggering winning potential.

03:55Gigablocks quickly won the hearts of gamblers and can be found in Hades, Gator Gold, Sabers

03:59and Swords Charge, Sun Catcher, Golden Fish Tank 2, Monster Blocks, 90k Yeti, Monster's

04:05Moon, Super Cash Drop… if you still haven't tried them, it's definitely time to give the

04:09gigantic blocks of shots.

04:13Infinireels

04:14Infinireels was first introduced by NetEnt in 2020, when Gods of Gold Infinireels invited

04:19players on an enthralling journey to the rich and prosperous kingdom of Mesopotamia.

04:24As incredible as it may seem, this mechanic features infinite reels.

04:29Each spin begins with a 3x3 grid, but every win adds a new reel.

04:33This process can go on indefinitely, producing a colossal number of payways and massive winning

04:38potential.

04:39The reels revert to their original size once there are no more winning combinations.

04:44But there's a lot we can say about the unique and melancholic feel of our beloved classic

04:49slots.

04:50They will never go out of style.

04:51But that doesn't mean the iGaming community won't benefit from an infusion of novelty.

04:56Progress is natural, and an organic part of the human experience.

05:00We strive to create something new, not necessarily bigger or better, but simply different.

05:05In this sense, innovative slot mechanics are always welcome.

05:09After all, variety is the spice of life.
