Cyclops Smash Slot by Pragmatic Play

A 7x7 grid packed with fruits, gems, and golden helmets - clusters of five or more identical symbols connected horizontally or vertically form wins. After each win, the tumble mechanic removes winning symbols and drops new ones from above. Standard stuff so far. The twist sits in what happens when tumbling ends without new wins.

The Smash feature triggers randomly at that point. The cyclops character rearranges 5, 8, 12, or all symbols on the grid, sorting them by pay value - low-paying symbols shift toward the top while high-payers move toward the bottom. This reorganization aims to group matching symbols into clusters that the random spin layout missed. If a new cluster forms after the smash, tumbling resumes, and another smash can follow once tumbling stalls again. The chain keeps going as long as smashes produce wins.

Free spins require four or more scatters. Four gives 10 spins, scaling up to 16 spins for seven scatters. The bonus round adds a persistent multiplier tied specifically to the smash mechanic - each time a smash creates a win, the multiplier ticks up by 1x and stays active for every subsequent win in the round. Retriggers follow the same 4-7 scatter scale and add 10-16 extra spins. The buy option costs 100x total bet and places 4 to 7 scatters randomly on the triggering spin.

The setting puts a cartoon cyclops on a Mediterranean beach, wooden frame around the grid, warm sand tones behind bright saturated fruit symbols. Blue and gold gemstones fill the lower pay tier while strawberries and lemons sit at the premium end.
