UNLIKELY FESTIVE HERO RULES THE REELS IN BGAMING’S LUCKY DUCKY X-MAS EDITION
In its final game release of 2024, BGaming takes the concept of the ever-popular premium rubber duck stores and swings open the doors to its own slot version in Lucky Ducky X-Mas Edition. This festive title features the popular MergeUp™(patent pending) mechanic with 9 levels, Free Spins with multipliers of up to x128, and both the Buy Bonus and Chance x2 options.
January 15th, soon after the holiday season wraps up, the game will come out with a basic skin to let players enjoy the entertaining slot beyond the festivities.
Dozens of brightly colored ducks with different hats and crowns sit on the reels, evoking an initial feeling of summer in this very-high-volatility release. When the Free Spins mode is triggered, the Christmas feeling takes over as it begins to snow and fairy lights glisten to create a cozy setting.
The MergeUp™ cluster pays mechanics (patent pending) see combinations of 4+ matching duckies transform into ducks of a higher level after the payout. In addition to the visual effects and engaging progression, chain reaction payouts open the gate to even higher symbols. There are 9 symbol levels, and the win amount depends on the level of merging symbols and their quantity.
Scatters represent the 9th level of symbols, appearing as King Duck clusters merge. If 4+ Scatters land on the reels, a round of 15, 18, or 20 Free Spins is triggered. Winning cells are then marked by sticky x2 multipliers that add up with every following win in the same cell. Each marked cell is awarded a future x2 multiplier when further clusters are made, with the potential to reach up to x128. If 4, 5, or 6 Scatters appear in one spin of the Bonus Game, a further 5, 8, or 10 Free Spins are added.
The Chance x2 feature doubles the odds of activating the Bonus Game, while the Buy Bonus makes it accessible right away.
With an x5,000 max multiplier and 97.25% RTP, Lucky Ducky X-Mas Edition simulates a Christmas shopping trip like no other.
Lucky Ducky X-Mas Edition combines our popular MergeUp™ mechanic with the familiar soundtrack of ‘Jingle Bells’ and comforting day-to-night winter graphics. As Christmas approaches, we hope players enjoy the light-hearted and fun rubber duck theme and its easy-to-follow elements often seen in mobile gaming. More than a year after its launch, MergeUp™ continues to delight players worldwide.
