Skull Crush

The Calavera Crush slot takes us to Mexico in the midst of the celebration of the Day of the Dead. The traditional autumn commemoration has become popular all over the world for the special way of honoring the deceased that Mexicans have. A colorful mix of altars, sweets, flowers, candles, garlands, many sugar skulls and respect for those who are missing.

The slot produced by Yggdrasil Gaming was launched at the end of September 2023, just at the time when online casinos start dressing up for Halloween, and where their darkest and scariest slot machines stand out, perfectly fitting slots inspired by the Day of the Dead and not just because they coincide on dates.

Sugar skulls of all colors run through the reels of the Calavera Crush slot, which comes accompanied by a great soundtrack that makes it better. Scatter Pays payment system, Avalanches, wilds, progressive win multipliers will give you the special touch. If you liked Explosive Skeleton 2 or Money Mariachi Infinity Reels , without a doubt the Skull Crush slot deserves a chance.

The playing field of the Calavera Crush slot is presented as an altar, framed by orange flowers (cempasúchil, the queen of altars), with 6 reels and 5 rows. Assorted skulls and candy symbols have just colored your large 30-position game grid. Its game format comes by combining its payment system Scatter Pays with the mechanism of Avalanches . Prizes will be won by adding 8 or more identical symbols anywhere on the reels. The more matching symbols, the higher the prize will be, they will be distributed in 3 paying slots, from 8 to 9 symbols, from 10 to 11 and the highest paid of 12 symbols or more.

Now, the Avalanches will be activated, making all the symbols that are part of the winning combination disappear. This causes the drop of new symbols to fill the New Zealandcíos. In the case of Skull Crush, in addition, a wild symbol appears on each avalanche randomly occupying one of the free slots and increases by +1, +2 or +3, the win multiplier of the counter is located next to the reels on the bottom left. Each Avalanche means a new possibility to create wins and to increase the value of the win multiplier. These will be chained while the prizes follow each other and will stop the moment a winning combination is not achieved.

Calavera Crush is a high variance slot and its highest theoretical return percentage is 96% (there are casinos that opt for a lower RTP). Taking into account these data, you will be able to adjust with more criteria the value of the bet to choose in the best online casino . The margin is wide, between $0.20 for the lowest value spin and $100 for the highest spin.

The Skull Crush slot reaches its culmination with its free spins round. To activate it you will need a minimum of 4 free spins symbols, the golden skull with mariachi hat. The amount of free spins that we get will depend on the number of symbols with which the round is activated:

• 4 free spins symbols – 8 free spins
• 5 free spins symbols – 12 free spins
• 6 free spins symbols – 18 free spins

Before the round starts, the game offers players the opportunity to risk all their free spins in exchange for getting a larger number of spins (provided that less than 18 are obtained). If you decide to accept the challenge, keep in mind that you may lose all your free spins and be left without activating the round.

The most attractive part of this round is that the win multiplier does not restart between Avalanches , so that it will grow progressively. As a result, on a good streak, the value of this win multiplier can reach really high heights. During the free spins we can also add additional free spins . Each time 3 free spins symbols match on the reels, we will add 4 extra spins . The free spins round is played in the same scenario as the main game, and if on the one hand, it must be recognized that the free spins work well, we miss a little effort on the part of the provider in terms of scenery, especially because it is part of the charm of this game.

There is the option to activate the "Golden Bet" (Golden Bet) by paying an extra value of 25 % of the bet value per spin. In return, we will double the chances of entering the free spins round.

The provider Yggdrasil Gaming offers players two different "Bonus Purchase" options in exchange for giving them a direct pass to the free spins round:

• Pay 100x times the bet value - Guarantees a random number between 8, 12 or 18 free spins .
• Pay 400x times the value of the bet - Guarantees 18 free spins .
