Game Overview
Microgaming has been extremely busy lately, but many players don’t realise is that a lot of the games being released are updates of earlier releases that Microgaming is just getting round to updating to the current HTML5 standard. Six Acrobats is one such game – the game was released in 2017 but has only just been rereleased using modern technologies in 2022. The RTP is a little below average at 95.43%, but the max win of 4,389x your stake is much more attractive.
Notable features of Six Acrobats include its wild symbol, which multiplies your wins by 5x during the base game, and a free spins bonus feature that multiplies all wins by 5x as well. This means that any win featuring a wild during the free spins will be multiplied by 25x. A nice touch is that extra free spins are awarded if you hit more than three scatters, with a prize of up to 25 free spins if all five scatters are hit.

Six Acrobats Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols
Six Acrobats is a Chinese themed game at its core, and there are no shortage of similar titles available if you enjoy this type of theme. Microgaming themselves released a title named Asian Beauty a while back which was a smash hit, and Playtech has created a whole series of online slots based on various Chinese stories and folklore. Play’N’Go never want to be left out of a major trend, so created their own game named Fu Er Dai (Translation: Second Generation Rich). Being a clone slot, there isn’t much of a story to tell about Six Acrobats, however, the soundtrack does deserve a mention as it has much more flare than the elevator-music style backing track that accompanies Break Da Bank Again Megaways for example.
Six Acrobats looks like a typical modern slot machine, until you spot the “9 lines” motifs to the left and right of the reels. Low payline games seem to be dying out, which is a shame, as less paylines typically means bigger wins when you do hit something. The 5x multiplier for combinations including at least one wild symbol makes a huge difference to base game play – trust us, there will be times you sit and stare at how much you have won from a seemingly simple combination wondering how on earth that can be right! Of the five acrobats that feature as regular picture symbols, you can win 166x, 111x, 83x, 55x, and 22x your stake for five of a kind WITHOUT a wild symbol – all of these numbers are multiplied by five if you are lucky enough to have a wild in there too.
Considering the huge win potential of Six Acrobats, it is surprising to see such a huge range of bet sizes available – low rollers can play at €0.09 per spin if they wish, whilst those who crash Ferrari’s for fun can opt for €22.50 per spin instead. Of course, you are free to choose anywhere in between these two figures as well, just remember that the RTP is lower than average at 95.43%.
Base Game & Modifiers
Observant players will surely wonder why there are only five acrobats on the paytable – apparently the scatter symbol is the sixth acrobat, despite bearing no resemblance to the other five.
Because Six Acrobats is a clone of a very old online slot machine, it’s not surprising that the game uses the traditional 5×3 layout with nine paylines. All of the focus from a player’s perspective is on those huge wins on the paytable, and of course the all-important multiplier wild which we feel deserves a little more attention here:
Multiplier Wild Feature
As we mention a couple of paragraphs earlier, the picture symbols in this game have some chunky wins attached to them all on their own. Most video slots have you spending most of your playtime praying to hit the bonus round, but not Six Acrobats; you can hit amazing wins both in the base game and in the feature in this slot.
Five-of-a-kind of the top symbol with a wild included returns 830x your bet, and even the lowest picture symbol returns 110x your stake for a five-of-a-kind with a wild symbol included. During the free spins feature, these figures increase to 4,150x your stake and 550x your stake.
Six Acrobats Slot Free Spin Feature
Six Acrobats features just one main feature/bonus round, which is triggered by landing three or more scatter symbols during the base game. Three scatters award 15 free spins, whereas four scatters increase this to 20. If you are lucky enough to hit five scatters – a very rare vent – you’ll be gifted a full 25 free spins. Sadly, there is no payout attached to the scatter symbol itself.
Extra Free Spins
The free spins feature cannot be retriggered unfortunately, but for every scatter that lands during the feature an additional free spin will be added to your remaining counter. This is a nice feature, although it would be really irritating if you happened to hit all five scatters during the free spin mode!
The Free Spins feature multiplies all of your wins by 5x, and the 5x multiplier wild is still active during this mode as well, making wins of up to 25x the normal value possible. Considering how top-heavy the paytable is anyway, this really is phenomenal and makes for an extremely exciting feature.
6 Acrobats Slot Review Final Thoughts
Break Da Bank Again is an all time classic, and Six Acrobats adds an interesting skin to what was already a brilliant game. If you are stuck for something to play or have never tried Break Da Bank Again before, we absolutely recommend you give this slot a try!
