SPLITZ MECHANICS
The SPLITZ™ FEATURE is a powerful mechanic that first featured in Temple Stacks in January 2020. Since then, it’s been added to Syncronite Slot – with more games sure to feature the mechanic in the future. The Splitz mechanic is in essence, a natural evolution of mystery symbols that can randomly appear to boost winning potential on a game’s paylines – just with much more power potential and excitement!
With Splitz, mystery symbols can be split randomly, creating more opportunities to create winning combinations. For example, with Temple Stacks, there’s up to 248,832 ways to win (each Splitz Symbol can split up to eight times!). When a split occurs, the mystery block reveals a symbol, creating lots of anticipation as you wait to see if you’ve won.
Temple Stacks: Temple Stacks slot was Yggdrasil’s first release with the Splitz mechanics, released in January 2020. The slot’s exciting Mayan temple vibe, combined with 243+ ways to win via the Splitz mechanic, made it a smash hit with online casino players. The power of the Splitz means lucky players can hit the big blocks for wins up to 5000x the activating bet (up to €500,000). Temple Stacks and the Splitz mechanic also power Bronze, Silver, Gold and Diamond jackpot levels.
Syncronite Slot: Syncronite is Yggdrasil’s second release with Splitz mechanic features, released in November 2020. The slot combines a classy Art Deco slot machine theme, with plenty of volatility that can create huge random wins for lucky players, as the symbols split to create blocks that can fuel wins as high as 64,000x the triggering bet (up to €1,296,000 for very rare high rollers!).
Splits can potentially create insane spins with 15 symbols lined-up, which is why lucky players can theoretically land jackpot-level rewards on hot runs.
What’s even more exciting about the Splitz mechanic, is the ability for the Yggdrasil team to evolve its power and infuse them into new slot games. Discover more with our full Splitz Mechanic review.
GIGABLOX MECHANIC
Yggdrasil’s GIGABLOX™ FEATURE was first seen in 2020, in the quirky Lucky Neko Gigablox slot, with later releases Hades slot, and Atlantean Gigarise, completing the releases at the current time. The Gigablox mechanic, has some similarities to the Splitz feature – with some innovative twists. Every game with Gigablox, guarantees you at least one set of ‘synched reels’, creating a big block of symbols. Because the synched symbol can be 2×2, 3×3, 4×4, or even 6×6 in size, you can potentially enjoy multiple synched reels and significantly enhanced win potential. You can also trigger free spin modes in Gigablox, for the chance of boosts such as the 6×6 block in Lucky Neko Gigablox’s bonus round.
Lucky Neko Gigablox slot: Lucky Neko is a quirky cat whose made its way to the slot screen – and also chosen at the character to launch Yggdrasil’s Gigablox mechanic!

Hades Gigablox: Hitting the slot scene in October 2020, Hades Gigablox slot is a game of mythical proportions, brining the famous King Hades to the slotscape in fine style with x10 Multipliers on offer. This spinner has plenty of volatility and sees the King fight monsters in the bonus to try and maximise the rewards of the Gigablox! Lucky players can potentially net a 11,129x the triggering bet wins – that’s up to € 1,112,900 depending on the bet selected from €0.10 – €100.

Featuring a fun firefly theme and arcade slot vibe, Multifly comes to life with this powerful slot mechanic.
