Commonly known as matryoshka dolls, Babushkas is about those Russian dolls that fit inside one another – yes, it’s an odd theme but if anyone can make it work, it’s Thunderkick. There are 7 dolls each with a number associated to them – and each with ascending value.
There are also bears which charm, dance and scare you in order to give you more rewards – there’s a wild egg symbol which only appears on reel 3. If you get a star on it, you will play 1 of 3 Bear Mystery features. There’s the Scare Bear feature where the lowest value symbol is upgraded – this can occur up to 3 times meaning the lowest value symbol can be transformed significantly.
The Charm Bear feature is better as all symbols will be upgraded by 1 level. The Dance Bear feature gives you 7 free spins with a wild egg appearing on the middle reel on every single free spin – this is the most rewarding feature as you have the opportunity to play the other Bear features within the free spins.
The aim in Babushkas is to upgrade all symbols to the highest possible one. If you get 15 symbols all the same, it’s a Wipe Win. If you manage to do this with the highest value symbol, there’s a cash prize of 100 times your bet awarded to you too!
Once you get a winning combination, Babushkas comes to life as you will see the dolls upgrading – the Bear can obviously, with its 3 features, help you along the way in order to hopefully land a Wipe Win. The more you win, the more upgrades and the bigger the rewards.
Variance wise, Babushkas is in the middle with 390 times your bet available to won from every spin – once you start spinning the reels, you will see how simple this game really is. One thing is for certain, Thunderkick has created a unique and innovative slot game which is sure to become as popular as their previous releases – I highly recommend Esqueleto Explosivo which is superb in my opinion.
