Lucky 8 Merge Up
Lucky 8 Merge Up is a 6x6 cluster-paying video slot by BGaming, inspired by the classic casual number game 2048. The base game centers around the Merge Up mechanic, where symbols in winning clusters combine and level up to more valuable numbers. Landing four or more scatter symbols triggers the Free Spins round. During the bonus, winning clusters create sticky cell multipliers that can double up to 128x with subsequent hits.
