Hyper Burst has a somewhat exotic theme, being based somewhere in the jungles of South America. The 6×4 grid is littered with ancient symbols suspended on a tropical backdrop with an impending active volcano in the background.

What’s great about Hyper Burst is that it isn’t just a cool tribute to Aztec culture, but it is also a race against time, and it puts a big focus on triggering the bonus features. Just in case you are bored with these themes, Hyper Burst has much more to offer, so don’t turn away just yet!
The soundtrack is pretty basic, and the symbols aren’t out of this world, but what hides behind a rather ordinary exterior could gain you plenty of coins.
Hyper Burst Details
As we mentioned, the grid is made up of 6×4 reels, which is one more each way than a standard reel combo. However, what’s a little disappointing is that it doesn’t offer a tremendous amount of payways. We have a standard number of 25 paylines, and a barely above average RTP (return to player) of 96.02%.

So far, it’s not bad, but there is one huge redeeming quality of these less than stellar figures. The max jackpot offered in Hyper Burst is a whopping 12,800x the initial stake! That is an extremely handsome reward for your time and coin and is largely due to the chain reaction feature, which we will talk about more in a bit.
However, it’s worth noting that the game ranks high on the volatility scale, and the betting range of 0.1 - 100 is pretty standard, which puts the high-value jackpot win into perspective.
Features
The features list doesn’t read very long, but the limited features it does have are enough to catapult you to high numbers.
The first feature is the Wild symbol, which can substitute all other symbols in the game to form winning combos, or it could give you a small payout directly if you end up having 5 on the same reel. A small payout isn’t exactly small as a secondary feature and can pay 100x the initial bet if you end up getting 5.
A big paying feature of Hyper Burst is the respin paired with the Hyper mode. The respins will start on a smaller grid of 2×2. If you get winning symbols, it will expand to 3×3 then 4×4, respectively. From that point on, the wins will trigger the Hyper mode, which is a chain reaction feature that awards you 2, 3, 5, and 10x multipliers. You can basically rack up the wins with all these features working together to get to the max jackpot.
Verdict
Our final verdict on Hyper Burst is a very positive one. Yeah, the theme and design don’t call for much credit, and neither are they unique, but the features and, most importantly, the big win jackpot is what gives Hyper Burst our vote of confidence.
It doesn’t limit itself to a certain type of player with high volatility and slightly low RTP. This is because players usually focus on the big jackpot number, and at 12,800, Hyper Burst offers one of the highest around.

While you do need a bit of Lady Luck’s help, it’s not hard to keep the wins going once you trigger them in the respin Hyper mode, so be patient and push on!
