- A new Asian-themed slot from Yggdrasil
- Super wilds expand to fill the whole reel
- Gong symbols split and provide multipliers
GigaGong Gigablox slot is a new release from Yggdrasil and it comes with a range of features including splitting symbols, expanding wilds and of course, free spins. It also comes with a very generic-looking Asian theme that doesn’t do it any favours and that’s a bit of a shame. It plays out on a 6×4 screen with 40 pay lines. All you need to do is spin the reels and try to get a winning combination from left to right using the base symbols. These are as follows, ranked in ascending order based on their value:
- Jack or Queen
- King or Ace
- Fan
- Scroll
- Ying Yang
- Coin

GigaGong Gigablox Slot Bonuses and Features
Gigablox. As the name implies, gigablox symbols can appear in this game. These are large symbols of size 2×2, 3×3 or 4×4 but count as normal 1×1 symbols when part of a win.
Wild Symbol. This is shown as a koi fish and it substitutes for all other paying symbols in a winning combination. Forming a win on it’s own, it’s also the most valuable symbol in the game.
Gong Symbol. Whenever this lands on the screen is will split into smaller parts, each one paying the value of the base stake multiplied by the gong multiplier. After it pays out, the multiplier increases by 1.
Super Wilds. Sometimes you’ll land a super wild symbol and this will expand to fill the entire reel, with each position acting as a wild.
Free Spins Bonus. This is triggered when you land 6 or more scatter symbols on the same spin. 6-10 of these will give you 10 free spins, and 11 or more will give you as many free spins as there are scatters. At the start of the bonus, the gong multiplier, which is global, chooses a random starting value . Gong symbols and super wilds are available here as well, and have a higher chance of landing. The gong multiplier also doesn’t reset between each free spin. You can also retrigger the bonus by land more scatter symbols, with each 1 giving you 1 extra free spin.
Bonus Buy. This option isn’t available in the U.K., but for others you can buy the bonus for 100x your stake, giving you 10 free spins.
Conclusion
GigaGong Gigablox slot from Yggdrasil is a new game from the developer with their Gigablox symbols that have proven to be fairly popular in the past. In this game, however, it’s hard to see the need for them too much and I don’t feel like they’re that important to the slot. In the base game you get some stacked wilds and gong symbols with multipliers, both of which appear more often during free spins which is nice to see. Multipliers don’t usually get to a huge value even when the don’t reset between free spins, but they can still provide a nice bonus. Overall, I don’t really feel like this slot is as exciting as it could be, and that certainly isn’t helped by the generic Asian theme. We know this developer can produce some amazing slots so we’ll look forward to the next one.
