Play’n GO Takes You on an Electrifying Adventure in Its Latest Video Slot — Sparky and Shortz Hidden Joules

Jul 19, 2023 Artyom Ustinov
If you enjoyed Play’n GO’s 2021 release of Sparky and Shorts, you will love its new instalment more. Sparky and Shortz Hidden Joules represents a better and upgraded version of the original but still sticks to the fan-favourite robot characters.
Once again, Play’n GO leads the way to the Alpha Labori planet, where we meet the two main characters. Sparky is a small purple robot trying to repair a multi-purpose robot called Shortz, whose task is to save the planet. Aside from the same RTP of 96.2%, this game version differs in several aspects from the original title. The grid has been expanded from 5x3 to 7x7, 10 paylines have been replaced with cluster pay mechanics, and a cascading grid has been implemented. However, the developer has downgraded the maximum winning potential from 10,000x to 6,000x.
The game also features the Boost Meter and win multipliers that can rise up to 25x your bet. Besides, you will also be able to unlock four Feature Wilds, which you can earn whenever a wild symbol is part of a winning combination. Sparky and Shortz Hidden Joules also awards plenty of free spins depending on the number of Power Cell scatter symbols you land. Each player receives 10 FS initially, but this number can increase to 100 in the bonus game. George Olekszy, Head of Game Retention at Play'n GO, has stated that he and his team are huge science fiction aficionados, so creating games involving this genre is something they all truly enjoy. Knowing that many of their fans are also lovers of extraterrestrial and intergalactic themes motivates them to create more such titles. Olekszy describes Sparky & Shortz Hidden Joules as an electrifying game that brings exciting Feature Wilds and once more brings back the charming robots. He adds that players will undoubtedly experience a rush as they watch winning combinations appear on the screen. Sparky & Shortz Hidden Joules and its predecessor are not the only sci-fi video slots Play’n GO has graced its audience with. If you enjoy this genre, you can search for Space Race, Planet Fortune, and Invading Vegas in the operator’s game library. This is Play’n GO’s 24th video slot since the beginning of the year. The company has been exploring various themes through their games, including adventures (Captain Glum Pirate Hunter and Highway Legends), food (Sweet Alchemy 2 and Slashimi), old civilisations (Legacy of Inca and Pilgrim of Dead), and several others.
