AvatarUX, the award-winning slots studio, has recently launched its latest game, PopNoir, expanding its impressive portfolio of slot games. PopNoir combines the popular detective theme with the studio’s unique PopWins™ mechanic.
Follow the clues
PopNoir follows the story of a detective who must gather clues in order to find the Golden Idol Symbols during the bonus round. Before entering the bonus round, players activate the Reward Reels feature, which offers a different starting setup each time. This special feature provides various rewards, including Free Spins, Starting Ways, Starting Multiplier, and Multiplier increment, giving players a more advantageous starting point in the bonus round.
In the base game, fully expanding all reels to six symbols high rewards players with two Free Spins. These Free Spins are played with fully expanded reels. The feature also includes a multiplier that starts at either 1, 2, or 3 and increases by either 1 or 2 with each win.
Detective free spins
During the Free Spins, players can enjoy an increasing Global multiplier and a growing multiplier value on the Scatter collection. The Global Multiplier continues to increase with each win and has no limit. Additionally, it does not reset during the Free Spins, allowing it to build upon previous values.
The Scatter collection feature enhances the Super High paying symbol’s pay value with a Multiplier every time the player collects every third symbol. The potential for big wins increases as the symbol’s multiplier can upgrade further with more scatters collected.
In certain jurisdictions, players have the option to directly access one of the four different bonuses using the Buy Feature. This feature allows players to start with 80 times their stake.
PopNoir slot is available now where available.

Summary
Pop Noir makes good use of the urban chic mystery theme with low pays but you do get expanding reels with successive wins plus both-way pays to compensate. The mini-bonus round when full expanding the game to 6-rows high is a good precursor to the main event which is harder to trigger but far more involving to watch. The modifiers awarded before the free games can be lucrative, especially the rate at which the multiplier rises and the minimum ways increasing. There is considerable high win potential during the bonus round.
