- The latest addition to the popular Cygnus series
- Huge win potential up to 50,000x your stake
- Still let down by a low RTP of just 94%
Cygnus 4 slot from Elk Studios is the latest addition in the Cygnus series with a huge win potential, big multipliers and more. It has probably my favourite design with a stunning background in a city and the grid itself looks amazing with the multiplier pillar. There are 4,096 ways to win to start with, but this can increase as you play. Just look out for the following base symbols:
- Blue, Green or Red Gem
- Snake
- Horse
- Winged Lion
- Eye

Cygnus 4 Slot Bonuses and Features
Wild Symbols. Like many others lots, this game offers wild symbols. These substitute for all others in a win apart from the bonus, level up and multiplier symbols.
Avalanches. It wouldn’t be an Elk Studios slot without avalanches, and you probably know what they are already but in case you don’t, I’ll explain. Whenever symbols are part of a win, they will explode and allow other symbols to fall in and fill the empty positions. Whenever this happens, another row of symbols is added, up to a maximum of 8 rows. This will continue to happen until there are no more wins.
Multiplier Pillar. On the left of the screen you’ll see the multiplier pillar where you need multiple symbols to increase the multiplier for the current avalanche. Once its applied the upgrade, it will turn into a wild symbol. There are 3 levels to the pillar, each with a range of multiplier symbols that are upgraded with level-up symbols. Level one, the starting level, has 2x, 4x, 6x, 8x, 12 and 16x multipliers. Level 2 upgrades from 4x up to 32x multipliers, and level 3 goes from 8x up to 48x multipliers.
Maximum Win. If you manage to reach the top of the multiplier pillar on the 3rd level, you’ll instantly get the maximum win the game offers.
Free Spins Bonus. This is triggered when a scatter symbol makes it to the lefthand side, giving you 7 free spins. The multiplier level on the pillar s carried over to the free spins bonus, and the multiplier does not reset between spins. If another scatter makes it to the left, you’ll also get more free spins.
Bonus Buy. Not available in the U.K., some players can buy the main bonus for 100x their stake, or pay smaller amounts for smaller features like increasing your multiplier.
Conclusion
Cygnus 4 slot from Elk Studios is another great addition to the series, with a huge win potential up to 50,000x your stake that’s sure to appeal to many. I like the multiplier pillar that works well, and in the free spins bonus multipliers don’t meet so going into it with a good starting position is very important. As you might expect from this developer, the RTP is just 94% which is a good way below the average of 96%. This is a shame but it doesn’t seem like this trend is ending anytime soon. IF you can look past that, it’s a very good slot to play.
