Dropz Review
ELK has plenty of solid grid slots under their belt, but Dropz somewhat paradoxically comes with a regular win ways system. You’ll enter into a landscape made of sweets, cakes and candy, and chocolate tiles block positions on the 6x6 default grid. You get a somewhat incongruent mix of candy and fruit symbols, and blocker tiles can contain special modifier symbols.
This is how you can level up to expand the grid in 3 tiers, and landing selected symbol pairs upgrade the win multiplier in all stages of the game. There are 2 different kinds of wilds to benefit from as well, and everything is enhanced when the multiplier never resets during the ReDropz feature. The 25,000x potential is solid, but the same can not be said about the 94 % top-tier RTP.

The higher value fruit symbols pay between 0.5 and 5 x your stake for 6 of a kind wins, while the top-tier 7 symbol pays 50x your stake for the same. Wilds and Locked wilds step in for pay symbols to help complete wins, and winning symbols are removed to trigger an Avalanche of symbols dropping down to fill the gaps. This repeats as long as you keep winning, and chocolate blocker tiles are removed when adjacent to winning symbols.

The chocolate blockers can contain Special Symbols, and these are triggered when the blocker is removed.
Locked wilds come with the number 3 attached, and this is the number of wins they remain in play for. Dropz symbols give you 1-2 extra symbol drops in all stages of the game, and Level Up symbols takes you up one tier:- Level 1 (default) - 6 rows (3 active and 3 blocked by chocolate blockers).
- Level 2 - 7 rows (3 active and 4 blocked).
- Level 3 - 8 rows (3 active and 5 blocked).
Levels unlock as the Avalanche sequence comes to an end, and multipliers, bonus symbols and the pair matching meter level is carried over. The Pair Matching Meter indicates pairs of symbols, and you need matching pairs on the grid to add to the meter. A full meter adds its value to the win multiplier, and removed symbol pairs also remove chocolate blockers.
You trigger the ReDropz Bonus Round when you land or accumulate 3 bonus symbols in the same Avalanche sequence. This gives you 5 free spins, and the grid is maxed out with 8 rows from the start (3 active and 5 blocked).
New special symbols may appear in already present chocolate blockers, and the multiplier never resets in the bonus round. Wilds remain in play between spins, and there is no level progression during the feature.The X-iter Feature Buy Menu is available in some jurisdictions, but not in the UK for sure. Purchasing a feature does not change the RTP, and here’s an overview of what you can get:
- Bonus Hunt - pay 2x your regular stake to double your bonus round chances.
- Feature Crescendo - pay 5x to get a round with more ‘7’ symbols and features.
- Feature Wilds - pay 25x to get a round with 3 locked wilds.
- Buy Bonus - pay 100x to get the bonus round.
- Super Bonus - pay 500x to get a bonus round with an x10 starting multiplier.
The 200 Spins Dropz Slot Experience
You get to see some decent level up sequences in the base game part of the 3:50-minute highlights video, and we purchase the Super Bonus Round at 1:30. We managed to rack up a pretty solid multiplier in the end, and we also got 1 extra spin. You can check it all out by hitting the play button below.
Review Summary
We were a bit surprised to learn that this game came with a regular win ways system instead of cluster pays, but it worked fine nonetheless. The sugary candy world looks like you might expect from a game like this, but mixing in something as healthy as regular fruits seems a bit strange, perhaps. Dropz is one of those games where everything conspires to go your way, or not.
When in the mood it can be super entertaining, as avalanches remove blockers, activate features and level you up as the multiplier keeps increasing. Everything is enhanced in the ReDropz Bonus Round, of course, and the 25,000x potential is solid as well.
The top-tier 94 % RTP is a turd in the fruit punch though, and it will probably be hard to swallow for many players. Why not allow for a 96+ % RTP like most developers do, ELK.Pros
- Avalanche wins remove blocker tiles
- Blockers can contain special modifiers
- 3-tier level up to expand the grid
- FS w/ non-resetting multiplier
- Win up to 25,000x your stake
Cons
- Top-tier RTP of 94 % (RTP ranges)
