Platooner Cartoon Capers!
For those of you who like a game packed with military style action and a bit of volatility then Elk Studios, those Swedes who love a good looking game, have developed the Platooners Slot where goofball bunch of “toon” characters make up the members of a rather unusual military platoon.
This merry band of misfits are here to defeat some golden snakes.
As a player, you’ll join the hostile jungle environment of the movie set, armed only with your box of supplies, and move stealthily towards trying to make some wins!
As fans of the games of Elk Studios know, these guys and girls know how to create a game with great graphics.
Platooners Game Play
Platooners is a five reel, 3 row and 178 ways to win slot that can be played across all devices.
The background sounds are convincing bird song and jungle noises.
The high value icons of play are militiary gear such as dog tags, a giant machete, a pair of binoculars and a first aid bag.
The lower value icons are styled like a billboard sign and are the Ace through Jack of the card deck.
The Wild is the word “Wild” in billboard letters and this subs for all icons except the Scatter which is a snake’s head made of golden coins.
Hilariously, the Platooners can randomly arrive on the reels with some serious weaponry and triggering their own mini feature called Action Spins. If the yellow platooner ‘Bullets’ shows up he makes the icon on reel 1 turn into a 5 of a kind set.
‘Grendades’, the red toon brings additional Wilds to reels 3, 4 and 5 too for a single enhanced spin.
And then there’s ‘Rockets’ with his anti-aircraft gun who covers all of reel 1 and 3 with matching icons to make for boosted winning power.
Tackle the Snakes of Fortune
Try and get into the feature: the Snakes of Fortune.
Land 3 Scatters on the reels and you trigger the bonus game. Get more than this, and you can bring the toon characters, one by one, into the feature as long as you land enough of them – each toon will increase the damage you can do to the wicked serpents and increase your winning potential.
You must defeat three increasingly large monstrous golden snakes made of coins.
You and your gang (if you’ve landed enough Scatters) will have 15 rounds of ammunition to defeat the snake and progress through the game, winning prizes and taking on the next serpent.
While you’re in the feature you can earn bonus treats including coin prizes and handy extras like more ammo, bombs to beat the snakes, and crucially, extra attacks.
Summary
The Platooners slot is an original game from Elk Studios that proves these guys are making slots that not only look first class, but deliver original bonus features.
