Discover a fun and crazy world in the Emoji Planet slot by NetEntertainment.
We really didn’t think we’d like this Emoji Planet mobile slot. We didn’t think that emoji, in and of themselves, would make a good theme.
After all, they are used to express emotions whilst internet writing, their character is only given context with words. It felt like a cash grab from NetEnt game studios.
So how surprising that we found ourselves falling for a world where emotions run wild and you are propelled into an avalanche of wins.
You’ll notice that on the right hand side of the screen a famous NetEnt character pops up from time to time; Gonzo from the Gonzo’s Quest slot.
Why is he in the Emoji Planet game? Actually, the two share a lot in common.
Yes the Emoji Planet video slot sits on 6×5 reels and has no multipliers. But it shares two things in it’s DNA:
That’s impressive DNA – especially the second one.
That’s because of the avalanche features and all the mini Emoji Planet bonus games.
Every time you get a win using any of 5 symbols (ie. Pizza, Kiss, Rocket, etc…) you collect bonus features. These bonuses then trigger and give you more wins.
What’s particularly fun, is that as you get chain reaction of wins, you travel through the Emoji Planet world, with the music rising in excitement as you feel like the wins will never end.
It’s the same trick NetEnt used with the Reel Rush phone slot, and it still works.
We loved this Emoji Planet slot machine.
But, because of it’s high volatility, be prepared to go through periods where you can’t quite seem to break through the clouds.
Mostly it’s because you can’t trigger enough of the mini-bonus features to keep the wins coming, which can be helluva an annoyance.
But, get the multiplier feature more than once, where it multiplies your win by 2x, 4x, 6x… and for the first time in your life you’ll actually genuinely use the cry with joy emoji literally.

Avalanche Feature: Instead of spinning, the symbols on screen fall into position.
Except, unlike other grid slots like Moon Princess (for example), here you actually get more symbols tumble down from above, giving you a greater chance of a second win.
Cluster Pays: using the same mechanics as Aloha Cluster Pays slot, you get a win when a cluster of 5 or more touching symbols are on screen.
Wild: The Star is the wild symbol and replaces all other symbols on screen.
Emoji Feature: There are 5 emoji meters. Each time you get a win, these meters are filled up. When you've won using 12 symbols (which you can build up with smaller wins), you trigger a bonus.
The bonus you trigger don't start until the chain reaction of wins has stopped, meaning you can accumulate more than one bonus.
For example, you win and have accumulated one pizza feature. This then leads to a new chain reaction of wins where you collect enough symbols to now trigger 2 bombs features and a kiss feature.
This can continue for a while... or never quite trigger.
The features are:
This Emoji Planet slot on mobile surprised us.
Not just by how NetEnt managed to actually create a theme out of nothing, but because it's genuinely good fun.
Fan of video slots with free spins might wonder if this is worth spinning, and all we can say is that you get plenty of value for money in this machine thanks to all those avalanche wins.
It's not an easy planet to conquer, and you might feel frustrated if you can't catch enough bonuses.
But it's certainly better than the Emoticoins slot from Microgaming, and has a crazy high cash prize for those willing to take the time to catch a few rockets, bombs, and hearts.
