About Hippo Pop

Hippo Pop is a wild animal-themed slot from AvatarUX. Everything from the graphics to the soundtrack is inspired by the jungle landscape, where dazzling depictions of frogs, zebras, flamingos, and more dominate the reels. You could stand to win more than 150,000x on any spin as you play Hippo Pop.

Hippo Pop Special Features

Hippo Pop contains a few different features that can improve winning opportunities. PopWins can come into play during the base game, while there’s a Free Spins round that can be triggered.

Hippo Pop PopWins

Hippo Pop contains AvatarUX’s PopWins mechanic, which removes and replaces symbols after winning combinations, much like traditional tumbling reels. However, with PopWins, each removed symbol will be replaced by two new ones. This increases the number of ways to win that are in play. Up to six symbols can appear on each reel. If all reels contain six symbols, a win multiplier will be added as long as the wins keep coming. The multiplier within this feature increases after every POP win. It will also start at the initial value which triggered the free spins bonus round.

Hippo Pop Free Spins

If the reels in the base game each expand to contain six symbols, the Free Spins will be triggered. The round starts back on the standard 5x3 reels, but enhanced PopWins can expand the reels up to eight symbols high, with the maximum number of ways to win standing at an impressive 65,536. Expanding the reels fully will add another two free spins to your total. The Hippo symbols also have increased payouts during this bonus depending on the height of the grid, and we've listed the payouts below:

6 rows-high: Hippos pay x2 their base value
7 rows-high: Hippos pay x3 their base value
8 rows-high: Hippos pay x4 their base value
