Independent slots developer Thunderkick has released Esqueleto Explosivo 3, the final instalment in its popular Day of the Dead-themed trilogy.
This latest game builds on the success of its predecessors, bringing in fresh gameplay mechanics like Cluster Pays and ramping up the win potential with multipliers of up to 1,024x.
The visually striking, skull-filled reels return in this vibrant Mexican celebration, but this time they are arranged on a larger 5x5 grid. The introduction of the Cluster Pays mechanic means that players will need five or more matching symbols in adjacent positions to score a win, shaking up the traditional payline system seen in earlier versions.
Returning fan-favorite features include the Cascading Wins mechanic, where winning symbols explode, leaving behind Wilds or the more powerful Explosivo Wilds. The Explosivo Wild not only replaces other symbols but also clears a 3x3 block, creating space for new symbols to drop in and form additional wins.
Building on the familiar Esqueleto Explosivo mechanics, the Mucho Multiplier system is back, offering escalating rewards. Each base game win and appearance of the Explosivo Wild doubles the multiplier, giving players an exciting progression throughout gameplay. Additionally, landing three scatter symbols activates the bonus round, starting with 10 Free Spins.
What sets Esqueleto Explosivo 3 apart from earlier entries in the series is the enhanced win potential. In the bonus round, every third Explosivo Wild collected awards an extra free spin and eliminates the lowest multiplier.
Thunderkick has supercharged the maximum multiplier from 32x in the previous games to a whopping 1,024x in this release. As a result, players can now win up to 7,500x their stake, compared to the 5,000x limit in Esqueleto Explosivo 2.
Mike Collins, Game Product Owner at Thunderkick, highlighted the evolution of the series: "Each version of Esqueleto Explosivo has brought something new and exciting to players. We've pushed the boundaries from 32x multipliers and 700x win potential in the original game to 1,024x multipliers and 7,500x potential in this latest release. We aim to consistently enhance the player experience."
Collins also pointed out the game’s broader appeal:"This series has been a massive hit for us, and we’re confident that Esqueleto Explosivo 3 will not only resonate with long-time fans but also attract new players who haven’t yet explored the Thunderkick portfolio."
With its eye-catching visuals, dynamic gameplay, and increased win potential, Esqueleto Explosivo 3 is poised to be a major success in Thunderkick’s lineup, continuing the legacy of one of the studio’s most beloved series.
