About Skulls Up
Developed by Quickspin, the Skulls Up slot was launched in 2020 as a part-pirate, part-tropical island themed slot machine. It is the payline structure in this game which impresses far more than the graphics or the theme of the release. To begin with, there are 243 ways to win present across the Skulls Up slot’s 5 reels. However, there are other parts of the game which can see the number of paylines rise to 1,944 in total. A spin on the reels of this Quickspin slot will cost anything from 0.10 up to 100.00, which isn’t bad going considering you can win up to 365,000 coins at a stretch. The game is pretty volatile, as are most modern video slots from this provider. The RTP rate in the game is set to 96.26%.
Special Features
Skulls Up comes with no shortage of special features. First up, there are wild symbols, and these take the shape of a skull. When wild symbols appear, they will replace all standard paying icons. As this is a 243 ways to win slot, it doesn’t matter where a wild symbol pops up on a reel; it counts towards a win all the same.
The slot also features flaming skulls. These can be used to trigger a Flaming Re-Spins bonus. When the re-spin bonus kicks into life, an additional gaming area opens up, which gives you more symbols (and thus more paylines) to play with. Any flaming wilds which appear on the screen are locked into place for the duration of the round. Any new flaming wilds which appear will see the re-spin bonus continue. When no new flaming wilds show up, the feature ends.
Treasure chest scatters also appear in this game, and these can be used to activate the slot’s free spin bonus. Yes, Skulls Up has both re-spins and free spins to offer its players. Let’s look at the free games feature next.
Bonus Feature
You’re going to need at least three treasure chest scatters to activate the slot’s free spin bonus round. Once it begins, players are offered a total of 8 Flaming Free Spins. The reels expand to a greater degree here, so it is in this bonus round where you could end up playing with just shy of two thousand paylines. Should players make it all the way to 1,944 lines, they will receive additional free spins to enjoy those lines with.
