Cyclops Smash (Pragmatic Play) – Review & Demo Play

The Cyclops Smash Slot Game

As soon as I loaded Cyclops Smash from Pragmatic Play, I got the familiar 7x7 grid with cluster pays. The one‑eyed brute stands on the beach with a spiked club as symbols drop on stone reels. Wins form anywhere by connecting five or more matching icons, horizontally or vertically. It’s a tidy, punchy setup with tumbles and a smash twist doing the heavy lifting. The vibe is straight to the point, with sound effects that suit long sessions or a quiet run with audio off.

Symbols and Payouts in Cyclops Smash

The symbol set in Cyclops Smash fits the castaway theme. You get lemons, oranges, olives, and grapes at the low end, then Meat on Bone, Blue Diamond, and the Helmet at the top. Clusters of five or more pay, scaling all the way to stacks of fifteen plus. On that top band, the Helmet pays up to 1000x, the Diamond up to 400x, and Meat on Bone up to 200x for the biggest clusters, while fruit sit at 20x to 40x.

There are seven regular symbols and one special. No wilds appear at any stage. The Meteor scatter is the trigger you want for feature entry. Payouts follow the stake you select, which makes the paytable easy to read at a glance. I like that the maths mirrors the grid’s pace, so small clusters keep you ticking over while those big stacks can land proper hits when the smash shifts things into place.

Cyclops Smash Slot Bonus Features

Tumble Feature in Cyclops Smash does exactly what it says. After any win, paying icons vanish, scatters stay, and everything above drops into the gaps while new ones fall in. The process repeats until no fresh connection shows. On cluster games I’ve logged plenty of runs where a modest start rolls into multi-step cascades, so keeping spins steady helps you ride those sequences without blowing the balance chasing single pops.

Smash Feature can trigger when a spin or tumble ends with no win. The Cyclops stomps and randomly rearranges 5, 8, 12, or even all symbols. Icons sort from lowest to highest, bottom to top, based on pay value. If the reshuffle creates a pay, tumbles resume, and another smash can happen when the grid stalls again. That rhythm of shuffle then drop is the hook here, and it can set up chunky clusters in one sweep.

Free Spins land with 4 to 7 Meteors for 10, 12, 14, or 16 spins. A win multiplier starts at x1 and climbs by one each time a smash leads to a win. Land at least four scatters during the round to retrigger the same bundle. If your region permits it, the Buy Feature costs 100x the bet and rolls in 4 to 7 scatters on the trigger spin with a 96.06% RTP for that entry.

How to Win at Cyclops Smash Slot

How to win at Cyclops Smash Slot is plain. Aim for clusters of five or more and chase the bigger stacks of 15+ where the top icons pay hardest. The board is 7x7, with cluster pays, so placement matters more than lines. I’ve found that letting the tumbles play out without rushing the next spin helps keep the tempo and shows whether a smash might save a dead board. Patience beats spam clicking on this grid.

Bets start at €0.20 and reach €240, which suits cautious play or high-roller shots. Use the plus and minus to set stakes, hit Spin for one round, or run Autoplay if you want a set count. Quickspin and Turbo trim the animation time when you prefer pace. The info page and menu give the paytable, rules, and toggles in a layout I already know from this studio. Stopping mid round is instant.

Cyclops Smash Slot RTP & Volatility

The Cyclops Smash RTP sits at 96.05% by default, with alternative settings at 95.05% and 94.05% across operators. Volatility is very high, so payouts can come in patches, but the win cap reaches 10,000x your stake. Hit rate is around 31.25%, with free spins about once in 389 spins in long runs. The Buy Feature carries 96.06% for its entry. Treated as a swingy grid, it pays when clusters stack deep.

The Final Thoughts on Cyclops Smash

I get déjà vu with this studio, but the mix here works. Tumbles plus the Smash Feature keep the grid alive, and free spins with a rising multiplier give the round real bite. The flip side is the lean set of extras and very high variance, which can sting if you push big stakes. I’ll take the buy when the base goes flat, though landing it clean feels better. Simple, punchy, and capable of 10,000x if the grid lines up.
