- A fun Pragmatic Play slot with tumbles
- Smash feature helps to rearrange symbols
- Nice design with a Greek Mythology theme
Pragmatic Play have just released Cyclops Smash, a new game that offers tumbles and free spins. Sounds simple right? Well, they’ve also included a new, unique feature that works with tumbles, and free spins, and it works really well as we’ll soon discover. I like the design here too, it’s fun and the graphics are on point. You’ll notice a large 7×7 grid with cluster pays instead of your standard pay lines. This means you need a winning cluster of symbols together to get a payout and these are listed as follows, ranked in ascending order based on their value:
- Lemon or Orange
- Pear or Grapes
- Meat
- Diamond
- Helmet

Cyclops Smash Slot Bonuses and Features
Tumbles. Like many other slots out there, this game offers tumbles. It’s a fairly simple mechanic whereby winning symbols are removed from the reels and this allows new ones to fall in from above to replace them, although scatters can’t be removed. New symbols will keep falling above as long as you keep getting wins, with the feature only ending once you stop getting any new wins and this all happens within the same spin.
Smash Feature. Whenever you don’t get a win, either after a normal spin or a tumble, there’s a chance that the smash feature can trigger. Here, 5, 8, 12 or all symbols are chosen at random on the screen and rearranged into new positions. They arrange from the lowest at the top to the highest at the bottom. If wins are generated from a smash, tumbles will occur and another smash may continue after no more wins again.
Free Spins Bonus. This is triggered when you land 4, 5, 6 or 7 scatter symbols at the same time, giving you 10, 12, 14 or 16 free spins, respectively. During the bonus, if a smash occurs and if followed by a win, a win multiplier is applied, starting at 1x. This applies to all subsequent wins in the bonus, and increases by 1x whenever it happens. You can also get more spins by landing the same number of scatters for the same number of spins.
Bonus Buy. Outside the U.K., you can buy the main bonus for 100x your stake, giving you 4, 5, 6 or 8 scatters randomly.
Conclusion
Cyclops Smash slot from Pragmatic Play has some impressive features that help is stand out. It uses tumbles like many other games, but it also provides the smash feature which works well with tumbles as it makes it trigger more often. This rearrangement of symbols can then lead to more tumbles and thus more smash features, so the cycle works really well together. In the free spins bonus it also leads to a global multiplier that increases the more you get, making it much easier to achieve the maximum win potential of 10,000x your stake. Overall then, I really like this game. It feels like they’ve really thought about how it should play and and it’s very effective.
