Instead of climbing on its own, the multiplier grows with every winning cascade on a shared 6x5 grid that all players watch in real time. Any 8 or more matching symbols anywhere on the board count as a win. They pop, and new symbols tumble in from above to fill the gaps. Every winning cascade lifts the multiplier higher, but the moment a drop fails to land a match, the round crashes and every uncollected bet is lost. PopX has bright slot visuals and no paylines.
