When in arcades, I liked a good fighting game, such as Street Fighter II. I never enjoyed claw machines because I have never managed to get any of the prizes. With Trigger Happy, you will be looking for fluffy creatures.
Now, you don’t have to catch them with a claw, but you will need to create a cluster to win a prize. The reels are set in a real arcade bar, with loads of games in the background. The grid is placed on an old-school arcade game where you put in coins and play a round.
The symbols on the reels look a bit peculiar. Either they are some strange fluffy animals or aliens that came to conquer Earth. Anyway, don’t worry, each time you land a winning cluster or a bomb on the Bonus Panels, you will destroy them.
The creature with a crown and moustache is the king. Others have horns, sharp teeth, strange ears, and even no mouth. The one who gets hit by a target is turned into a Wild. So, make sure that your target is always in the right spot.
It is not hard to learn the rules of the game. Trigger Happy is played on 5 reels and 5 rows. It benefits from cluster pays. That means you need to land a cluster of 5+ matching icons, horizontally or vertically connected, to make a payout.
Basically, it is the same as in the arcades. You place a bet (or put in the coins), and play a round, hoping for a win. Betting starts at $0.20, while you cannot wager more than $20 per spin. The BTG title is of high volatility and comes with a 96.58% RTP and 50,000x max payout.

I love most of the arcades because there is plenty of action in them. However, certain games are simply boring. Fortunately for me, that is not the case with Trigger Happy. BTG used the 2024 release to introduce the new Bonus Panels feature.
Also, you will be enjoying Target Wilds that occur both in the base game and free spins, as well as Cascading Reels. If you want, you can gamble your wins to trigger free spins, or even buy the feature for 100x the bet.
Every winning cluster of 5+ matching icons will trigger a reaction. Winning symbols disappear and new icons land on the reels. The cascades continue as long as there are new winning clusters.
With every new spin and every new cascade, a Target will be placed on a random symbol on the reel. This random symbol will be turned into a Wild. Thanks to cascades, you can get multiple Wilds in a single spin.
This is the latest feature in BTG’s rich portfolio. During every spin and every cascade, 2 Bonus Panels, 1 on the left side of the grid and 1 under the grid, will spin and bring multipliers, bombs, and trigger coins.
If multipliers from either Bonus Panel align with the Target Wild on the reels, they will boost the Target Wild with the current multiplier. If 2 multipliers align with the Target Wild, they are added together.
When a bomb lands, it will destroy the corresponding row or column, and add up to 4 Wilds on the empty row/column. If trigger coins align with the target, you will trigger free spins.
I have to say that Bonus Panels helped me land decent wins. I got both Target Wilds and bombs regularly. With the help of the Bonus Panels feature, I won around 100x from a single spin in the base game.
Once you trigger the feature, you get 8 free spins. During the feature, you get 2 targets on the grid, giving you more Target Wilds. You can also get 3 extra free spins each time you align targets with trigger coins.
I triggered the feature twice while I tested the game and I was not that successful in terms of payouts. Even though I got plenty of Target Wilds and a decent amount of bombs, my biggest win was 32x.
Frankly, I expected more. Also, I didn’t manage to retrigger the feature. Hopefully, you will have more luck than me.
If you land a win of at least 100x, you can exchange it for 8 free spins. If your win is between 25x and 100x, you can gamble your winnings and spin the Wheel. If it lands on green, you get the Free Spins feature.
I decided to test the Win Exchange and wagered my 100x win from the base game for 8 free spins. Unfortunately, free spins brought me around 20x in total. That is why I don’t recommend this option.
For a price of 100x the bet, you can buy the Free Spins feature. Again, I do not advise it because in most cases you will not win as much as you have invested in the feature. I don’t like this option but I always test it to prove my point. For a price of 100x, I won around 50x.
I really hope that arcades are making a comeback because I have loads of friends who would love to play their favourite games once again. This time, instead of our parents, our children would be looking for us if we skipped lunch or dinner.
I made an immediate bond with Trigger Happy. It was a fun trip down memory lane for me from the moment I heard Packman in the background. The visuals and the soundtrack made me feel as if I was in one of my favourite places from my childhood.
Also, I feel that the Bonus Panels feature has a bright future. It was fun to look for targets and get random Wilds everywhere. What I didn’t like was the Free Spins round but only because it didn’t deliver bigger payouts.
Anyway, I will give the game another chance. Maybe, in future, it will pay more. Until then, I rate Trigger Happy 8.4.

Buy feature not worth the moneyTakes time to trigger free spinsBeing a huge football fan (and a not-so-talented football player), in 2015 Predrag started his Teamwork content writing career with football predictions. He hoped to remain among football stats and transfer news forever. As he was monitoring summer football transfers, he received an offer to transfer to slot reviews.
Needless to say, it was love at first spin, which even made his wife a bit jealous. Video slots became his passion and he is always prepared to explore and review new titles. Predrag considers himself an action junkie and prefers slots with tons of extras.
During his content writing career, Predrag has contributed to various sites, such as TheCasinoHeat, CasinoBloke, VideoSlot, and MoneySlots. When not testing slot machines, Predrag can be found trying to revive his football career and reading epic fantasy books.
