Who would have though that a device as humble (but useful) as the zip could form the theme for an online slot machine? Merkur Gaming that’s who, because they’ve developed this game which utilises the functions of a zip as part of the bonus feature – keep reading to find out how.
Zipper is a five reel slot with three rows and either five or ten paylines depending on your preference; all the action seems to be taking place in some luxurious tent which opens via a zip which is just about visible above the reels.
The high value symbols include the chap with the bright teeth (the magician) and the glowing white thing; 9, 10, J, Q, K and A make up the lower values.
The wild is a crystal ball which will substitute for all others to help form winning combinations except for the top hat scatter symbol.
Bonus Features
Free Spins
This is triggered by landing three or more of the top hat scatter symbols anywhere in view for which you will receive the following:
- Three Top Hats – six free spins.
- Four Top Hats – twelve free spins.
- Five Top Hats – twenty four free spins.
This round is all about landing more hats (one or two will award one or three extra spins, more will award spins as in the list above) because each hat will insert five extra wild symbols onto the reel set – you’ll see this via an animation involving a magic wand and a zip. Our original six spins turned into twenty four with sixty or so extra wilds in play which makes it easier to crank up the big wins.
Verdict
Zipper is quite a simple looking slot with an odd theme but it comes with an interesting feature which can prove lucrative for the luckier players; it’s strangely engaging and comes with an RTP of 96.00%.
