Yggdrasil and ReelPlay Team up for Monsters vs Gigablox
- August 2, 2022 By Riley Wilson -
Two veterans of the casino slot industry Yggdrasil and ReelPlay join forces to create an amazing apocalyptic-themed video slot game. With ReelPlay being known for their monster-themed slot games and Yggdrasil for their innovative Gigablox mechanics, this is a match made in heaven. Or hell, judging by this monster of a game.
What is Monsters vs Gigablox
This brand new 2022 video slot features Yggdrasil’s well-known Gigablox mechanic on a 6×6 reel grid. Also, players have a chance of rolling a giant symbol that encompasses a 2×2 up to a 6×6 spot. The symbols are inspired by your favorite giant monster designs from kaiju movies.
To win the game, you need to arrange one of these monstrous symbols in one of the 50 fixed paylines. Moreover, Monsters vs Gigablox has an above-average 96.08% return-to-player value which is decent if we compare them to modern slots. Finally, the game is reportedly highly volatile which is quite fitting to the apocalyptic theme.
Moreover, this apocalyptic slot has some extra features in store like the golden crown wilds and VS scatter free spin symbol. Rolling a few of these symbols together can result in multipliers to your original bets for higher winnings.
Comments on the Partnership
Monsters vs Gigablox is the newest release for Yggdrasil’s YG Masters collection. This is a portfolio of games like MexoMax Multimax and Victoria Wild that uses Yggdrasil’s innovative adaptation tools and interface technology.
David Johnson, ReelPlay CEO, said about this collaborative endeavor:
“ReelPlay has partnerships with many independent studios which allow us to showcase varied approaches to game development.”
His overall statements during interviews showcase how proud he is to partner with similar-minded providers to create exciting experiences for slot enthusiasts. Furthermore, Yggdrasil’s Stuart McCarthy shares this design philosophy. He is happy about the theme of the game and its innovative visual potential. He also added concerning Monsters vs Gigablox mechanics that “packing in our Gigablox GEM makes for another thrilling addition to the YG Masters offering as we strive to create dynamic, unique content.”
