Tip Top Totems

Tip Top Totems Review

Tip Top Totems takes you into the damp mezoamerican jungle, and the game literally dances around the giant Totem Bonus Meter you’ll see to the right of the reels. It’s all about climbing this bonus meter to get jackpots, free spins, random wilds and multiplier boosts. You can win up to 4,000 times your stake on this game, and the biggest jackpot is 500x.

This game is interesting and somewhat unusual, and it all plays out on 5 reels, 3 rows and 20 ways to win. You can place bets between 2p and £1,000, which makes this game suitable for both high rollers and casual players. The medium volatility will cater more to the ladder group, though. The game can be played on all platforms and devices.

The Totem bonus ladder has 11 steps, and you can get yourself up to 50 free spins in total while climbing these steps. The maximum multiplier you can get is 4x, and you will also pick up 7 wilds along the way to the very top, where the 500x jackpot awaits you. A somewhat original effort, and a decent game overall.

What symbols are there?

This game comes with many different colored totem masks, and the red mask is the highest value regular symbol. Both the scatter and the wild symbol pay out the same, and these are the highest value symbols in the game. You will need between 3 and 5 matching symbols on a payline to win, and here is the paytable for Tip Top Totem slot:

• Red mask - Pays 15x for 5 on a payline
• Green mask - Pays 10x for 5 on a payline
• Purple mask - Pays 7.5x for 5 on a payline
• Blue mask - Pays 6x for 5 on a payline
• Turquoise mask - Pays 5x for 5 on a payline
• Yellow mask - Pays 3.5x for 5 on a payline
• Card suit symbols - Pay between 3x and 1x for 5 on a payline

What are the bonus features?

The game comes with a wild symbol that can land on either of the 5 reels, and this will step in for any symbol except the scatter, and thus maximize your winnings in any way possible. You can also win up to 50x your stake if you get 5 wilds on a payline, and the same goes for the scatter symbol.

It might come as a bit of a surprise, but the scatter symbol actually does not trigger the bonus feature on this game. To the right hand side of the reels, you will notice a bonus meter totem, and this is where all the action is on Tip Top Totems slot. The more consecutive wins you can land, the higher you will climb on the Totem meter, and the bigger wins you will get.

Free spins in Tip Top Totems

You also win free spins and multiplier values via the Totem bonus meter, and even random wilds are awarded as you climb higher and higher with your consecutive wins. Below you can see the all the Totem meter steps, along with all the benefits you get from each step:

• 5 consecutive wins gives you 5 free spins with 1 random wild and a 2x multiplier
• 6 consecutive wins gives you 10 free spins with up to 2 random wilds and a 2x multiplier
• 7 consecutive wins gives you Tip Jackpot worth 40x your total stake
• 8 consecutive wins gives you 15 free spins with up to 3 random wilds and a 3x multiplier
• 9 consecutive wins gives you Top Jackpot worth 100x your total stake
• 10 consecutive wins gives you 20 free spins with up to 4 random wilds and a 4x multiplier
• 11+ consecutive wins gives you Totem Jackpot worth 500x your total stake

What is the jackpot (max win)?

As you can see above, there are 3 different fixed jackpots you can win on this game. These are the Tip Jackpot of 40x, the Top Jackpot of 100x and the Totem Jackpot of 500x. Please note that you will only get the highest jackpot you reach on the Totem meter, and not the ones you might have won below.

The biggest jackpot is far from the highest win you can land here though. If you fill the screen with wilds or scatters you can win up to 4,000 times your stake if you’re benefitting from a 4x multiplier. If you play with the highest possible stake of £1,000, you can thus pocket up to £4 million on a single spin here.

SlotCatalog verdict

Tip Top Totem is built around the big Totem bonus meter, and it almost feels like you’re there with the natives, dancing around it while you play. It’s actually quite a thrilling game, even though it’s all about climbing the meter for jackpot wins, free spins and extra wilds. We only wish the biggest jackpot would have been a bit more attractive than 500x your stake. It helps a bit that the game has a higher potential overall, but we feel that the Totem Jackpot should have been the main attraction here.
