Crocodile Blitz Xtreme

The Blitz range of titles has expanded yet again with the introduction of the Crocodile Blitz Xtreme slot. It's set on the bank of an African river, and a mountain range can be seen in the background, while a rather sinister song plays throughout each spin. Of course, just like the other online slots in this series, it features the Blitz progressive jackpot mechanic. Crocodile Blitz Xtreme is played across 6 reels and 4,096 paylines, with the minimum bet size sitting at 0.20.

This game was created by Playtech, a colossal provider that is known by many players around the world. In their portfolio, an assortment of titles can be found, including popular casino slots like King Blitz, Hot Crown Deluxe, and Silver Bullet Bandit Cash Collect, to name just a few.

Standard icons in Crocodile Blitz Xtreme are shown as the typical 9, 10, J, Q, K, and A symbols. Next up is a giraffe, a zebra, a bison, a hippo, and a crocodile, which can award players with up to 100x, 100x, 125x, 125x, or 150x their stake size, in that order. 

This release also features a wild, shown as a diamond, which can only appear on reels 2 to 6 in the base game and 2-5 during the main bonus round. Diamonds can substitute for any standard or premium symbol to form a matching combination. The other special symbol is the scatter, shown simply as the words 'Free Games'.

Crocodile Blitz Xtreme comes with four progressive jackpots, including a mini, minor, major, and blitz variation. At random, this associated mini-game has the potential to trigger, taking players to a grid featuring 20 diamonds. These can be selected at random, with each displaying one of the four jackpots. When three of the same symbols are revealed, the corresponding potential winnings are awarded, and the jackpot is reset to its seed value. 

Landing 3, 4, 5, or 6 scatter icons during the same spin will trigger the main bonus mode, awarding players with 8, 12, 20, or 50 free spins, respectively. Throughout this mode, reels 2 and 5 gain an extra row, meaning that the expanded grid has a total of 6,400 active paylines. Should a wild symbol land on these expanded reels, they will move down one position after each spin, increasing their associated win multiplier up to 8x, before eventually falling off the board. 

It's possible to retrigger this round, too, with 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 scatter icons awarding an additional 5 to 50 free spins. The Trigger Blitz mechanic has been incorporated into this release, too, activating at random to add two scatter icons to the reels before the spin concludes. Finally, players can purchase this round at the cost of 80x, 120x, 200x, or 500x their stake size, in order to be awarded with 8, 12, 20, or 50 free spins, in that order.

This title fits neatly into the Blitz series of slots online, with all of the popular mechanics making a return. Arguably, the most entertaining aspect of this release is the jackpot mode, which can trigger at random during any spin!
