The game uses a 5-reeled grid on 4 rows offering 1024 ways to win. Feel free to choose a bet size in the range of 0.01 to 100 for the spins and change it whenever you like. To do that, you have two buttons: Bet Per Reel and Reel Cost. You have to choose the number of reels and the reel cost to form a total bet size. According to the number of reels will be a relevant RTP which ranges from 95.93% to 96.47%.
There is a free spins bonus game available which you can re-trigger many times. There, the wild multipliers can combine their values giving you up to 9x boost of your wins. If the operator you use allows it, you can have a chance to trigger one of the three progressive jackpots. You can add some profitable wins via the stacked skull symbols and the wild multipliers. The max win you can score in the game is 10,000 times your stake capped at £250,000.
As you would expect from a slot with such name, the setting is a tattoo studio. On the left, there is a chair with a lamp above it and various tattoo designs on the walls. The atmosphere in the tattoo parlour is cosy with a bluesy musical soundtrack adding to it. On the grid, you will see images of the most common types of tattoo designs. There are skulls, anchors, hearts, sailing ships, and others.
Nicely styled are also the 9 to A playing cards. The graphics are good and suitable for the theme. But they aren’t that exceptional you would expect from a slot inspired by the art of tattoo making. The volatility of the game is medium to high. The RTP can range from 95.93% – 96.47%% according to the bet value adjustment and the reels’ number.
To win from a paying combination you need to arrange identical 2 (for the top player) or 3 (for the rest) to 5 symbols on adjacent positions starting from reel 1. So, you have to land symbols from left to right to score a win. The symbols on the grid are represented by the 9 to A playing cards in the form of knuckle letters. There are classic tattoo drawings like hearts, anchors, skulls, sailing ships, betty girls. The hearts and anchors pay 0.5, 2 or 3 times your stake for 3, 4 or5 symbols.
The sweetheart and the sailing ship pay from 1.25 to 3.75 times your stake for landing 3 to 5 symbols in a combination. The best paying symbol is the skull – 2, 3, 4, and 5 return 1.25, 2.50, 3.75, and 7.50 times your stake. This is the only symbol that appears stacked on the reels. The cards and dice symbol plays as the wild which can land on the middle 3 reels only. It substitutes any missing ones except the Ultimate Ink logo, which is the scatter.
To choose the bet size you have to select the Reel Cost and the Bet Per Reel. Select the number of reels you want to play with and the reel cost which is a multiplier shown as 1x, 5x, 10x, 20x, and 40x. Then, decide what value of the bet per reel to play with to determine your total bet per spin. Keep in mind that only symbols that land on an active reel will pay you except for the scatter. It rewards regardless of landing on an active or an inactive reel.
The reel number also determines your RTP which is in the range of 95.93% to 96.47%. A configuration of 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 reels gives you active 4, 16, 64, 256, and 1024 pay-lines. Thus, the more reels the more pay-lines will be active with better chances for wins. So, we would recommend you to choose more reels even if you have to play with a lower bet per reel.
Land 3, 4 or 5 scatters in one spin anywhere on the reels to win the Free Spins Bonus. You will then get 8, 15 or 20 free rounds respective to the number of the game logo symbols. If you score at least 2 more scatters you will add extra spins to your rounds. During them, each wild that has been a part of a winning combination will multiply your payout by 2x or 3x. The wilds’ value accumulates which means that you can boost your payouts with up to 9x.
The Mega Drop feature offers 3 progressive jackpots: Minor, Major, and Epic. As you know, progressive jackpots increase with a percentage of each player’s total bet. This way they can reach astronomical figures. The three Mega Drop jackpots have values before which they must be won. This means that by the time each jackpot reaches its max payout size, it will have been won by a player.
Ultimate Ink offers nice features in the base game and the free spins. Three progressive jackpots are also available as long as the provider includes them. It is a nice video slot but nothing innovative or very exciting. If you like the tattoo them and are attracted to art, you may check it. The slot provides significant wins via stacked skull symbols together with the wild multipliers. Its max money prize is £250,000.
