Calabash Boys Pokie Review

Since 2019 each year the Taiwan-based Studio KA Gaming is releasing a game inspired by a noble warriors’ story: the initial success of the 7 Heroines pokie - led the way, and the Japanese 7 Heroes pokie followed. In 2022 the software developer dedicated the Calabash Boys pokie to yet another 7 brave paladins - grown from calabashes, each a different colour of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple.

The little champions each hold unique supernatural abilities such as super-strength, super hearing and sight, invisibility, and Pyro kinesis. The boys used their combined efforts to defeat demons and evil spirits.

Actually, Calabash Boys pokie is a reskin pokie (identical copy) and the 3rd chapter of the already popular line of “Hero games”, which could’ve gotten to even better reception if some marketing strategy has been planned and executed. All 3 replicas share the same mathematical model, features, variance and paytable (Double Wild feature in the base game, and distinct Bonus with only Heroes images and corresponding non-value symbols offering Multipliers).

So, like its “Hero” predecessors, the Calabash Boys reskin is a 243 winways pokie with decent visual and audio quality. It comes with the selfsame Medium Volatility, where on regular spin 13 (all paying) symbols mingle to create winning combinations on a standard 5x3 layout.

As manifested by the name, the central spot here is assigned to the 7 amazing brothers, but the Calabash Mountains (Wilds) are also profitable components, helping to maximize the winnings in the main game. Wide betting option (up to 175 AUD), a high hit rate of near 43%, and a fair (theoretical) RTP of 96% are the remaining technical aspects of the game.

While the fearless brothers are shown in their all grownup protector's side in the Free Spins with up to 7x Multiplier, the topmost pokie potential is only 600x the total bet in a single spin (inadequate by modern-day standards).

All taken into account, we leave neutral pointers for using the Calabash Boys pokie to wager your Bonus money and for playing with real credits as well. The main reason for that is the poor max potential. If you still decide to play here, you can avail of our advice and accept the tiny but gradual increase of your balance, so be prepared for average risk spinning and often times long waiting for the Bonus.

Bonus Features of Calabash Boys pokie

• Wilds - The single mountain (showing up on reels 1/3/5) and double mountain (emerging on reels 2/4) equally act as Wild elements in the pokie. They both are employed for the usual replacement (for all except Scatters) when winning combinations can be assembled, and besides they are the second-highest paid icons on the paytable (yielding 17.14x the total bet for 7OAK). Of course, the double mountain count as 2 symbols stand-in, but unfortunately no Wilds participate in the FS.
• Scatters & Free Spins - The game logo is the Scatter. It is the top-value icon on the provision with 50x/10x/2x paid for 5/4/3 Scatters on the field. Landing 3+ logos will trigger a Bonus of 7 FS (always) but without the option for extending or re-trigger. Each spin will render a different (colour) Boy, expanded to a full reel in the center of the grid, plus the corresponding calabash symbol (of the same colour), which doesn’t pay. A random Multiplier (between x1 and x7) applies to the wins from each spin.
