Boom City is Pragmatic Play's most ambitious live game show — and the first major Evolution-Pragmatic format that doesn't use a wheel. Instead, Boom City uses a 6×6 grid and two physical dice, creating a fundamentally different multiplier mechanic that Filipino players at VOSLOT.APP haven't seen elsewhere.

How Boom City Works
The presenter rolls two physical dice — the same dice you'd see in Sic Bo or craps. Each die has 6 faces, generating one of 36 possible outcomes. The 6×6 grid maps each outcome to a specific cell containing:
- Number multipliers (1x, 2x, 5x): direct multiplier on your bet
- PowerUp: boosts upcoming multipliers
- 3 bonus icons (Dice Battle, Boom or Bust, Lucky Drop): triggers bonus round
The grid contents shuffle between rounds, so memorizing positions doesn't help.
The Three Bonus Rounds
This is where Boom City separates from wheel-based game shows:
Dice Battle (up to 500x)
You bet on which die rolls higher. A series of dice rolls play out, each adding to a running multiplier. If your chosen die wins the battle, you collect.
Boom or Bust (up to 1,000x)
You climb a ladder of multipliers. Each successful "Boom" doubles your stake; one "Bust" ends the round. Pure greed-vs-safety mechanic.
Lucky Drop (up to 500x)
A ball drops through a peg field (Pachinko-style) and lands in a multiplier slot.
Average bonus round payout: 20-100x. Max ceiling: 20,000x requires hitting maximum multipliers across multiple rounds plus PowerUps.
Boom City vs Crazy Time
| Aspect | Boom City | Crazy Time |
|---|---|---|
| Core Mechanic | Two dice + 6×6 grid | 54-segment wheel |
| Bonus Round Triggers | 3 icons on grid | 4 segments on wheel |
| Max Multiplier | 20,000x | 25,000,000x (theoretical) |
| Realistic Max | 100-500x typical bonus | 50-200x typical bonus |
| Game Pace | ~60 sec/round | ~60 sec/round |
| Studio | Bucharest | Riga |
Boom City is closer in feel to Sic Bo + Game Show hybrid. Crazy Time is closer to wheel-of-fortune + bonus rounds.
For Filipino players bored of wheels, Boom City is genuinely new.
PowerUp Mechanic — The Strategic Wrinkle
The PowerUp symbol is what makes Boom City more interesting than other dice game shows:
- Rolling onto a PowerUp boosts the next round's multipliers
- Multiple consecutive PowerUps stack
- A PowerUp chain into a bonus round can produce the headline 20,000x wins
This rewards players who stay at the table through dry spells — a PowerUp chain followed by a bonus round is where Boom City delivers life-changing wins.
Optimal Strategy
Boom City has no skill-based optimal strategy, but there's a clear bet sizing approach:
- Cover all 3 bonus icons — they pay 50-1000x base before bonus multipliers
- Add a small bet on PowerUp — increases your stake in eventual bonus rounds
- Avoid betting only on multipliers — 1x/2x/5x pay too small to justify variance
Filipino players who chase only bonus icons see the highest variance. Those who add small PowerUp bets see slightly smoother variance with no EV loss.
Who Should Play Boom City at VOSLOT.APP
Yes: Filipino players bored of wheel-based game shows, Sic Bo players wanting more bonus-round depth, and high-variance hunters chasing the 20,000x ceiling.
No: Low-variance players (the multiplier-only base game is too small), wheel-format purists who prefer Crazy Time, and anyone who finds 3 different bonus mini-games confusing.
Verdict
Boom City at VOSLOT.APP is the first genuinely fresh live game show format in two years. The grid + dice mechanic feels different from every wheel game, the three bonus rounds add variety, and the PowerUp stacking adds a strategic layer that Crazy Time lacks.
For Filipino players who've played every wheel game and want something new, Boom City is worth the session.
