TNT Tumble Dream Drop

By Relax Gaming

TNT Tumble Dream Drop arrived in August 2022, a further addition to the growing Dream Drop Jackpot progressive slot network from Relax Gaming. It is based on TNT Tumble, a high variance mining-themed game played out on a 5 reel and 7 row grid with a Cluster Pays game engine. The aim of the game is to unlock either the free spins round where 10,000x top payouts are available, or unleash the Dream Drop Jackpot feature to pocket a multi-million-pound prize!

What Our Reviewer Says …

A compelling high variance mining game with lots of tension and the chance to hit a massive jackpot payout!

What We Like

  • Tension builds nicely towards free spins
  • Chance to win £1,000,000 jackpot
  • Persistent multipliers in free spins

What We Didn't Like

  • Very similar to the original version
  • Under average RTP at 94%

Theme and Design

TNT Tumble Dream Drop is set in the same scenic hillside as the first version. A mine with mechanical equipment housing the reel set sits centre stage amidst a lush alpine glade. In the background, rocky, snow-capped mountains complete a pleasant picture.

Each time a new set of symbols drop they do so with a satisfying thud, whilst rocks crack and dynamite explodes as a weird electronic soundtrack plays in the background. It’s all suitably absorbing and hypnotic for a high variance slot.

RTP and Variance

Like almost all other Dream Drop games, TNT Tumble Dream Drop runs at a 94% RTP, with 12% reserved for the progressive jackpot pool. This is fairly standard for a progressive slot.

The game has a high variance, like the original, so it can be a tough play. However, the features are structured in such a way that huge win sequences can trigger if the game is in the right mood.

Maximum Win

The maximum non-progressive jackpot win in TNT Dream Drop is 10,000x. This is also the same as most other Dream Drop games. However, Templar Tumble 2 Dream Drop does have a higher maximum win of 20,000x if you are looking for better potential.

Symbols and Paytable

TNT Tumble Dream Drop is a Cluster Pays game but with a difference! Wins are triggered for landing identical symbols in horizontal OR vertical rows of 3 or more. But NOT diagonal rows.

TNT Tumble Dream Drop Paytable
Payouts are triggered by landing 3 or more symbols horizontally or vertically

There are just seven symbols in the paytable – six gemstones of silver, bronze, blue, green, orange and red, and a wild. The red is the highest value gemstone at 15x for seven in a row.

Meanwhile, wilds pay out 50x for seven in a line as well as subbing in for all others to form wins.

Features and Gameplay

NOTE:  Unlike standard slots that require players to land three or more scatters or bonus symbols to trigger free spins, in this game the objective is to destroy the darker blocks that appear in the bottom rows of the grid. When they are all destroyed, the bonus round starts.

Cluster Pays and Avalanches Wins

TNT Tumble Dream Drop is a Cluter Pays game. That means wins are triggered when three or more identical symbols land in a HORIZONTAL or VERTICAL line.

Once a win is paid, then the winning symbols are removed, and new ones drop in to replace them on the grid. The process repeats until no more wins are created.

Stacked Wilds Drill Down!

Wild Drills perform the standard function of subbing in for normal symbols to create win lines. BUT … they are NOT destroyed when appearing in a win UNTIL they reach the bottom row. These symbols are depicted with a drill tip underneath them showing that they drill down through the grid to the very lowest row.

Choice of THREE Bonus Rounds

When all the dark stone blocks in the grid are destroyed, you earn SIX free spins in three different configurations. You can choose from the three.

During the free spins round, the lower rows of dark stone blocks on the grid DO NOT re-set between free spins and associated avalanches. This gives a greater opportunity to re-trigger the bonus round by removing all dark blocks again.

  • A highly volatile MULTIPLIER and PERSISTENT MULTIPLIER option. New stone blocks now contain multipliers of 1x, 2x and 3x. If they are destroyed, then their value is added to a total win multiplier applied to ALL wins throughout the round. This multiplier is persistent. That means it does not re-set until the round ends.
  • A medium volatility EXTRA SPINS format gives you the chance to add more free spins to your total for the round. New blocks introduced to the grid contain 1, 2, 3, 5 or 10 free spins that are added to your total when they are destroyed.
  • Another high volatility option combines the two previous ones: MULTIPLIERS and EXTRA SPINS. Now new blocks contain EITHER multipliers OR extra spins.

NOTE: For every THIRD row of symbols destroyed on the grid TWO extra free spins are granted.

Dream Drop Jackpots

The Dream Drop Jackpots feature can be triggered randomly at ANY time. The execution is slightly different to other Dream Drop games.

When this happens then you will see the display area to the left of the reels with the jackpot tickers on it start to flash GOLD. Then the game grid re-populates with stone symbols and TNT blocks. In dramatic fashion, the TNT explodes row by row, removing all blocks.

If FIVE DD symbols are revealed, the Dream Drop Jackpot initiates and from here on you are GUARANTEED to win one of the five prizes.

Now a new reel set with FIVE reels appears. Each is a different row height to represent a different jackpot. To decide which prize is paid out, stone blocks and DD symbols fall into place on each reel. Then stone blocks are moved and DD symbols drop down. The process repeats until ONE reel fills with DD symbols and its corresponding jackpot pays out.

Jackpots are seeded as follows:

  • Rapid: £1
  • Midi: £5
  • Maxi: £100
  • Major: £25,000
  • Mega: £1,000,000 *

*The seed value for the Mega Jackpot started at £500,000. It increases by £500,000 after every second win. This will continue until it reaches a maximum of £10,000,000. 

TNT Tumble Gameplay

Final Verdict

TNT Tumble 2 Dream Drop is another great addition to the growing Dream Drop list.

In terms of gameplay there is little difference between this game and the original aside from the progressive jackpots. However, when choosing you should take into account the difference in RTP – the original is 96.11% compared to 94% here to account for the progressive jackpot contribution. The original also has a marginally higher top payout of 12,278x compared to 10,000x in this one.

As far as gameplay goes, we love this slot - the theme and artwork are nicely realised and the concept of destroying the entire grid to unlock free spins is a bit different and adds jeopardy to the gameplay as you near completion each time. For the biggest wins we recommend choosing the highly volatile Free Spins and Multipliers option where you can build up a decent multiplier value to apply to your wins AND add to your free spins total as you go, prolonging the bonus round as much as possible.
