Play Tiki Treasures for Free

This unusual layout suits the nature of tiki symbols, which in real life are often stacked vertically, like totem poles, with one macabre phizog perched on top of another. It also allows for expanded wilds, which make use of the increased vertical real estate. While some players will resent the wasted screen space on the right hand side, most should be able to appreciate the benefits of this for a high pay line game such as Tiki Treasures.

There’s a Main Menu tucked away in the top left that will allow you to access a complete playing guide and to toggle sound effects, high quality animations and graphics on or off. Everything else lies on the bottom right of the screen, starting with the credit value which ranges from 0.02 to 2.00.

The game’s 100 pay lines can’t be adjusted, but the bet multiplier can be set between 1 and 5. Hit the Bet Max button and you’ll be able to save some time; with everything set to maximum, each spin of the reels will cost you 500. The final controls of note are delivered by the Auto Spin button, which can be toggled anywhere from 10 to 100 spins. Alternatively, you can request that it stop when the game’s feature is activated.

The game’s basic symbols include some pretty colorful and elaborate tiki images. There’s also a lizard and some Hawaiian cocktails that’ll have you licking your lips with thirst. 5 top-scoring tiki symbols in a row will earn you 2,500.

The most desirable symbol of all, however, is scatter, played by a flaming tiki accompanied by a series of cocktails sat at his base, as if placed there as an offering to the gods.

The scatter symbols will appear on the central 3 reels only. Land 3 scatters on the central 3 reels and you’ll be awarded 2x your bet and 5 free spins. The other noteworthy symbol that will surface in Tiki Treasures is the stacked wild, so named because it stacks on top of the other tiki symbols to form an eye-catching tower. Wilds will substitute for any of the other symbols except for scatter.

When you’re collecting the 5 free spins you’ve earned via the scatter symbols, there’s the possibility of increasing this number further; land 3 scatters on the central reels at this stage and you’ll be awarded another 5 free spins.

Because an alternate set of reels is used when claiming free spins, you may find that you collect more stacked wilds, as these feature more frequently on the alternate reels. If this happens, your prize will be doubled thanks to the appearance of the stacked wild.

Tiki Treasures is a great game that’s a lot of fun to play. The graphics are beautiful, the animations are as superb as all Toptrend Gaming slots and the features are nifty.

The only criticism to be made is that the narrow layout of the reels means this game isn’t really suited to small screens. In every other respect, Tiki Treasures passes with flying multi colors.
