Babushkas Slot

The Babushkas slot from Thunderkick (the people behind the Arcader slot and Frogs n Flies) is one of the most entertaining games we have seen in a long time. It’s right up there with game like the Wild Toro slot and Taco Brothers. Granted, Thunderkick are well known for launching these kinds of quirky slots, but even they have surpassed themselves with this one!

Babushkas are Russian dolls (Matryoshka dolls)- you know the cute wooden ones that nest inside each other- they get smaller and smaller. The name means “little matron”. All the action takes place on a background of the kind of cute knitted jumper your granny could have made for you, and there’s a catchy Russian soundtrack clipping along as you play.

Set your bet level and off you go. You can play our free Babushkas slot demo here or there is also one on WombatCasino.com. There are 5 reels and 17 fixed pay-lines on this slot machine.

Upgrades, Upgrades and Upgrades!

The big action on the Babushkas slot is on the upgrades. Forget trying to worm your way into Business on your next British Airways flight, just play Babushkas if you want an upgrade frenzy! A “symbol upgrade” or “upgrade” means a symbol is replaced with a symbol of the next higher pay out value. Sometimes you will see all of your winning symbols of a specific value getting the upgrade treatment!

Wilds Means Bears

Wilds stand in for any other symbol. It’s the egg symbol with the W on it. You will see them on the central reel (they spin around before stopping) and if you randomly get one with a star- that’s a Mystery Wild and it will set off the following bonuses:

– Scare Bear: All of the lowest valued symbols screen will get an upgrade – this may repeat up to 3 times.
– Charm Bear: All symbols will be upgraded once.
– Dance Bear: you get free spins, the Wild symbol will show up on every spin.
– Wipe win: If all 15 symbols on the screen (3×5) are the same when all win symbol upgrades are completed, they will upgrade once more.
– Special win: If the wipe win is applied to the highest valued symbol, you get a special win.

As you can see, there are features galore! Just like the Esqueleto Explosivo slot– another Thunderkick masterpiece! It’s not that easy to explain in words, to be honest- you best bet is to try out our demo game (we have a version for laptops and desktops and one for mobiles and tablets too.
