How the Game Plays

Tinkerbot transports players to a sprawling, neon-lit scrapyard where a restless machine constantly assembles new inventions from discarded junk. The game begins on a 5x5 grid using a cluster-pays system, where wins are achieved by landing five or more matching gadgets or robot parts connected horizontally or vertically. Every win triggers a cascade, removing the winning symbols to allow new ones to drop in. Uniquely, each winning cluster also generates a Botbox symbol. If three or more Botboxes accumulate during a single sequence of cascades, they activate a feature release, unleashing random modifiers onto the grid.

Free Spins Explained

The bonus game is triggered by landing three or four bonus symbols. Three symbols award seven free drops, while four symbols activate the Super Bonus with nine free drops. During this mode, any accumulated multipliers and the current grid size remain persistent between spins, preventing them from resetting. In the Super Bonus, the game starts on the maximum 7x7 grid with a boosted multiplier value already active, providing the highest potential for significant clusters.

Botbox and Grid Expansion Explained

The core of the gameplay revolves around the Botbox mechanic. These special symbols can release features such as Absorb (collecting all matching symbols into one Multisymbol), Transform (changing symbol types), or adding various types of Wilds to the reels. Additionally, the Expand symbol can physically grow the grid, increasing it from the standard 5x5 up to a maximum of 7x7. This expansion increases the number of available symbol positions, making it easier to form larger winning clusters and chain together multiple cascades.
