Anaki Skywalkers Slot Review

Long jump might seem like a cool sport. You run, jump, and fall on your ass in the sand. Done deal. Except that’s not exactly the full story. Some of these athletes have racked up pretty awful injuries. 😳

Jovan van Vuuren, a South African athlete, fractured his pelvis 🏥. Belgian decathlete Thomas van der Plaetsen fell head-first into the long jump pit during the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. 🤕

Another thing that can have consequences is jumping to conclusions. Luckily, my assumptions didn’t have any bearing on the reality of Anaki Skywalkers slot 🎰 from Popiplay, and the game has a couple of surprises waiting for you.

Gameplay

Screw the whole “Ooh, look at the design” thing I usually open with, there’s something far more spectacular in this game and it needs to be highlighted immediately.

I’m talking about the volatility rate being low, yet the max multiplier is 5,000x and the potential payout is… wait for it… $420,000! Whaaat??!! That’s freakin insane! The RTPRTP stands for “Return to Player.” The RTP describes the total bet amount that a game returns to players over millions of spins, and that figure is represented by a percentage. Table games, such as Roulette, typically have higher RTPs than many slots. RTP needs to be considered in conjunction with a game’s volatility rate. is 96.96%, and there are 15 paylines. I’m literally speechless.

But back to the game’s design and I have to say I’m surprised. Studios often want to piggyback off movies and have to get inventive with their titles and designs to sidestep any legal repercussions.

In my addled mind, Anaki Skywalkers slot was a creative reference to Star Wars, but the game’s theme is actually Ancient Egypt. What gives?

According to the studio, the game is based on an ancient Sumerian myth about powerful figures from a planet known as Nibiru. Gold was essential to their atmosphere so the Anunnaki came to Earth to enslave humans and mine this precious metal. How’s that for a plot twist?

We have Wild symbols in this game – they’re pyramid/spaceship things – which replace all non-Scatter symbols. Scatters take the form of steps leading up to a portal. Cool.

Features

FREE SPINS:

Land 3 or more Scatters on the grid during the base game and you’ll be awarded 10 Free Spins.

Yeah, so this round offers nothing special; no multipliers or anything. You literally get 10 spins – which, admittedly, you can re-trigger – and that’s it.

GAMBLE FEATURE:

Score a win in the base game and you can use the Gamble featureThis feature allows you to gamble your current winnings. It usually takes the form of guessing what color and/or suit a facedown card will reveal itself to be. A correct guess on the color pays 2x, while a correct guess of the color and suit pays 4x your bet.. It’s the usual fare: guess the correct color of a face-down card to double your winnings and the correct suit to win 4x. The only selling point here is that there’s no limit to how many times you can gamble.

Performance

I tested this bad boy out on multiple browsers and devices with no issues.

Maximum Win

Here are those other-worldly stats, in case you missed them earlier: betting ranges from $0.15 to $84. Combine the latter with the 5,000x max multiplier for a payday worth a staggering $420,000.

Conclusion

I did some research – coz that’s how I roll – and apparently the whole Nibiru/Sumerian mythology thing isn’t entirely accurate. It appears to be a modern interpretation by the writer Zecharia Sitchin, rather than a factual thing. Not that this detracts from our game.

What will take away from it – for some players at least – is the lack of features, and it’s dearth (see what I did there, Star Wars fans?) of money-making potential.

You literally only have Free Spins (with no extra oomph) and a Gamble featureThis feature allows you to gamble your current winnings. It usually takes the form of guessing what color and/or suit a facedown card will reveal itself to be. A correct guess on the color pays 2x, while a correct guess of the color and suit pays 4x your bet. – which is where you can hopefully make some moolah, as there’s no limit to how many times you can play (the only limit is losing, of course).
