Bomper (ELK Leovegas exclusive)

[vanHooff]

Whenever ELK releases a game, I am excited to try it out because their games tend to have great graphics & sound and innovative gameplay.

Today I was happy to find a new Leovegas Exclusive game from ELK: Bompers  and it did not disappoint.

The base game is similar to Cygnus, i.e. from the ELK Gravity series. The base game has a couple of mini-features.

One of the ideas behind this game is the effect of pinball machine pop bumpers: bompers.
In the slot when a bomper is hit enough times by dropping symbols, it turns into a sticky wild.

A number of spins with bompers can be purchased straight away by what is called 'X-iter' modes.

Also this slot features a bonus game that can be reached through the base game as well as be bought. 
I am not sure yet if it can be reached through an X-iter spin.

Game RTP is 95,8%.

I tried out a 10 spin EUR 60 minstake X-iter spin and a EUR 20 minstake bonusbuy, in the following clip:

I am curious about how this game plays, ELK bonuses seem to play out a bit oddly.
Should be a good game though, enjoy.

An update on the gameplay of the bonus mode of this game: lol sample size I have played some dozens of bonuses and
the way the bonuses play out suffer real bad from ELK-syndrome.

Still fun & innovative gameplay, great sound & graphics, but..

The variance of the bonuses is extremely low, I had only 1 or 2 bonuses pay out more than 2.5x Bonus Buy.
I had found no retriggers. This was the best one, about 4.5 Bonus Buy. Hope to see a couple of real big wins in the future.

An update on this one: there is a EUR 2500 promo on Leovegas running on this one until tonight, best series of 25 spins min. 40 cent base game count. Points are rewarded for various game events.

Colourful promo & good fun but I scored horribly. Cost me a couple of hundred (5?) euros to place 180th or so.
I discovered a slight bug: when a bomb explodes after doubling up with the shooting star, no 25 points are rewarded for the bomb.
If this bug happens only for me that explains the terrible score  

Best personal win about 240x, which is about maxwin for 'old style' ELK games.
