Zoom

 

Zoom is a very unusual game to say at least. You don’t really know what to expect when you see a name like this on a video pokie game. The closest we expected to see on the reels as symbols were maybe telescopes, mirrors and other optic devices.

 

Instead Zoom features game symbols that are common for older classic video pokie games. Players can see the ever familiar grapes, lemons, water melons, cherries, bells, sevens and the elusive stars, as main symbols in this game. This choice of symbols only further confuses us from where the game name originates.

 

The classic video pokie symbols give the game a vintage look, reminding us of a more distant time when these symbols were the only ones we could see on the reels of every pokie machine.

 

Still Zoom isn’t a vintage pokie game at all. The symbols may be identical to some great names from the industry, but Zoom has top of the line animations installed and great visual details. This is a great example how a vintage and almost forgotten design can be made modern and popular once again.

 

Developers

 

Zoom is the latest video pokie game coming from the great software provider Thunderkick. This company managed to build a great reputation in the industry in a very short time, by launching some really top of the line video pokie games on the market.

 

Their games are innovative and very original. Their pokies are like no other you will find on the market and that is a virtue that separates Thunderkick Software from the rest of the providers on the market.

 

 

How to Play

 

Like we said Zoom has a very unusual design in every view. There are a total of 6 reels and 4 rows on the screen and a total of 64 pay lines going over them.

 

This is a very unorthodox pokie design even for Thunderkick. The bet levels are standard with the minimum starting from $0.10 and the maximum going up to $100 per spin.

 

The total bet size on Zoom is adjusted easily, just by clicking on the bet amount, while the Auto play option can be set on up to 5,000 auto spins. This way you can set the reels in motion and watch what happens, relaxed in your chair.

 

Special Features

 

Zoom is a unique video pokie game for one other detail as well. There is no classic bonus feature available for players to trigger. The only bonus features in the game revolve around massive symbols and re-spins, which can award decent payouts on the reels.

 

The reels on Zoom are divided into 6 sections, each one containing a total of 4 positions of the reels. In each spin players have a chance to land the scatter Zoom symbol in each of the 6 sections on the reels or even several Zoom scatters on several sections.

 

In this case the entire section is transformed into a massive symbol and a free re-spin is awarded. If another Zoom scatter lands in the re-spin it also becomes a massive symbol and another re-spin is awarded. If a Zoom scatter lands in 4 neighboring sections on the reels one Super Massive symbol is formed and a re-spin is awarded.

 

This is when the biggest payouts can happen as the Super Massive and Massive symbol can be any of the symbols in the pay table, including the highest paying Wild and Stars symbol.

 

Maximums Payout

 

If you go through the symbols pay table of this game you will see that the two highest paying symbols are the Wild and the Stars symbol, each one awarding a small 12.5 x total bet payout for 6 of a kind wins.

 

But if you take into consideration the fact that the Wild can land as a Super Massive symbol and cover the entire screen, then you are looking at a great 800 x total bet payout in a single spin.

 

Summary

 

Zoom will definitely catch your attention once you play it for the first time. Thunderkick has a notorious reputation for creating out of the ordinary video pokie games that many players find attractive.

 

There is certainly a great winning potential on the reels of Zoom pokie, but since it’s a mid to high variance pokie game, caution is advised or your bankroll might disappear very fast.
