Samurai Studio shoots for the stars in Babel Builder Accumulator
Innovative indie developer invites players to stack up towering wins in an all-new cyber punk-themed slot released via the SwinttStudios partnership programme
Get ready to hit the neon streets of a space age city in Babel Builder Accumulator – the new cyber punk-themed slot from up-and-coming software provider, Samurai Studio, where scaling towering megastructures can lead to colossal wins of up to 8,082x the bet.
The third Samurai Studio game to be released via the pioneering SwinttStudios programme, Babel Builder Accumulator is a five-reel, 20-payline slot set in a gritty, urban landscape. Featuring a pulse-racing, techno-inspired soundtrack and high-tech cast of androids and augmented humans as its symbols, the game really does an outstanding job of conveying a dystopian future.
Of course, this rampant advancement of technology is not without its perks – and Babel Builder Accumulator boasts a couple of standout features to help players stay ahead of the game. First of all, on any given spin Mirror Reels can trigger to turn two or more columns into identical copies of each other, significantly boosting the odds of landing multiple matching payout combinations.
Secondly, landing three or more scatter symbols in any position will activate the Accumulator Bonus. Whenever this happens, players will be granted three free re-spins with an initial in-game multiplier of 1x, 3x or 5x depending on the number of triggering scatters. With the reels now only displaying prize symbols worth between 1x and 50x the selected bet, whenever players land a prize, not only will the re-spin counter reset, but they’ll also fill one section of the progress metre.
Once six sections have been completed, a random multiplier of 1x, 3x or 5x will be added to the accumulator total – which can reach a maximum of 30x – with this process repeating until no new prizes arrive and the re-spin counter hits zero. In this manner, the feature can be prolonged indefinitely for truly epic wins, and players can also enter the bonus directly for an additional bet.
David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “We’ve already been treated to some incredible releases from Samurai Studio – and Babel Builder Accumulator might be the best yet!
“Featuring an eye-catching cyber punk aesthetic, atmospheric soundtrack and an incomparable Accumulator Bonus where players can scale their way to maximum wins of 8,082x their bet, the game really does have all the makings of a modern slot and we’re delighted to be able to use our existing network of casino partners to help Samurai Studio reach new audiences worldwide.”
