How The Incredible Balloon Machine Works

The Incredible Balloon Machine is an online slot from Microgaming, offering a unique gameplay experience based on inflating balloons to increase your potential credits. Unlike traditional slot machines with spinning reels and paylines, this game centres around a balloon inflation mechanic, providing diverse ways to play and win.

  • Your main interaction is inflating the balloon, which increases the displayed credit amount.
  • The minimum bet is £0.20 per play and the maximum bet is £5.
  • To start, select your total bet using the bet size box.
  • Once a wager is placed, a balloon may appear showing an initial credit amount or a bonus balloon, or the balloon may pop immediately.
  • The initial credit amount can range from 10 to 150 times your bet multiplier.
  • If an initial credit amount appears, you may choose to further inflate the balloon and grow the credit amount, detach the balloon and cash out, or risk the balloon popping.
  • The possible increase in the balloon’s credit amount ranges from 5% to 7303% of the initial credit.
  • You can press collect at any time before the balloon pops to secure the current balloon credit amount. If the balloon pops, you lose that round’s credit prize.
  • A round ends if you collect the credit, the pick bonus ends, or the balloon pops.
  • Total base game win is calculated as: initial credit amount x (100% + credit amount increase).
  • All credit awards are multiplied by your bet multiplier. The bet multiplier is calculated as your total credits played divided by 0.20 (for example, a £0.40 bet per spin equals a bet multiplier of 2).
  • Bonus winnings are added to any regular winnings from the main game.
  • If the game is interrupted, any uncollected credit amounts are automatically collected.

Key Features and Bonus Rounds

Multiplier Feature

  • If an initial credit amount appears, a random Multiplier Feature may trigger at any time.
  • When activated, the collected or awarded credit amount is multiplied by up to 10x and the round concludes.

Pick Bonus

  • If a bonus balloon appears, there is a chance to enter the pick bonus round, or the balloon may pop before the round begins.
  • The pick bonus can award up to 8 rounds, where players select from 5 balloons in each round. Balloon selections can reveal credit prizes or 2x multipliers.
  • Choosing a 2x multiplier doubles your current cumulative bonus total.
  • Some balloons contain an advance or complete icon. Picking an advance will move you to the next round, while a complete ends the bonus.
  • All credit prizes in the bonus are multiplied by your bonus bet multiplier, which is based on the bet multiplier from the game that triggered the bonus.
  • All bonus winnings are automatically collected during this feature.

Paytable Achievements

  • Certain versions of the game may include an achievements feature, visually tracking your progress towards specific in-game goals with checkmarks.
