The Asiatic section of the Pacific Ring of Fire inspired Krakatoa Lucky Break, a volcanic September 2019 video slot developed by Ainsworth. A part of the “Evo” game cabinet; its subtitle—informal of good luck—refers to the developer’s multiple jackpots-related “Lucky Break” mechanism that is also fitted in other games such as Grand Circus (December 2020), Ancient Wisdom, Laughing Dragon (December 2021), and Norse Legend (April 2022).

Themes: volcanic eruption, natural disaster, exotic animals, architecture, and sculpture. Krakatoa Lucky Break has: five jackpots; 30 fixed winning ways; prolonging free spins; two win multipliers; bonus game, with eight bonus random bet multipliers; left-to-right wins; reel-tall volcanos; stacked “free games”; three scatters; thirteen symbols; and nine total bets.

Exclusive to the regular games: (one symbol) a six-of-a-kind of “free games” magmas pay X1. In the regular/free games: (one symbol) a two/three/four/five-of-a-kind of hornbills pay between X0.10 and X6.6̅; and (eight symbols) a three/four/five-of-a-kind of Komodo dragons, castles, statues, A, J, K, Q, and 10 pay from X0.16̅ to X4.16̅.

Krakatoa Lucky Break Game Characteristics

The Krakatoa Lucky Break’s partitioned and golden-framed 5X3 grid blends in with the backgrounding ghostly and towering Indonesian domes, which are covered in flaming magma and have an orange overcast resulting from the distantly erupting Krakatoa caldera.

There are nine coins in Krakatoa Lucky Break: $0.03, $0.06, $0.09, $0.15, $0.30, $0.45, $0.60, $0.90, and $1.20. Total bets (X30 bet factor): $0.90 (minimum), $1.80, $2.70, $4.50, $9.00, $13.50, $18.00, $27.00, and $36.00 (maximum).

The Krakatoa Lucky Break’s four symbols: the substitute (and free mode’s win multiplier) is an erupting orange-hued “wild” Krakatoa caldera; “free games”-activating red magma; credited or jackpot-displaying golden plate (scatter): and extra “free games +1/+2/+3”-triggering volcanic ash.

Ten ordinaries: great hornbill; Komodo dragon; golden-hued domed buildings; purple Hindu goddess’ statue; fissured purple A, purple-and-cyan J, red K, golden Q, and orange 10.
