Reel Linking Slot – Inspired Gaming

Real Linking is an interesting new slot that's both multifunctional and colourful. It's made in a classic style with a King being the main protagonist. The funky design invokes nostalgia for the classic era of the Las Vegas fruit machine. The plain blue background with thin gold borders around the wheels, only adds to the retro feel. The symbols on the reels include such things as cherries, plums, jackpots, and sacks of gold and coins.

This retro slot features 5 x 3 reels and 20 pay lines. The game is of medium to high volatility and has an RTP of a very acceptable 95%. The maximum potential win is 500 x your stake. This means that it's an easy slot to get started on.

Reel King Bonus

Every now and again, you’ll hear a yellow “ding” sound coming from the left. Suddenly, 1 to 5 Kings will land on the grid, causing each of their reels to spin. Gold coins will appear with random values like 1x or 3x written on them. The Real Kings will start collecting these coins as they land on the reels. If you're able to match any of the 7 coloured symbols, then you'll get a cash prize. The feature comes to an end once all the King symbols disappear.

Reel Linking Bonus

This bonus is triggered by 6 or more coins. At this point, all the regular symbols will disappear, leaving gold coins in their wake. Provided you managed to win three reels then the gold coins will lock into place. 

Gamble Feature

The Real Linking slot has an optional feature that allows you the possibility of doubling your winnings. In this mode, two wheels will appear on the screen. The one on the left gives you a chance to win in by 1/3, 2x or 3x. The wheel on the right holds the possibility to win Real Linking gold coins. Furthermore, you can turn this feature on or off.

The Bowery Boys – Hacksaw Gaming

The Bowery Boys is set in the early 1900s, a period reminiscent of Martin Scorsese's movie Gangs of New York. It features unique artwork, with the game's background showing a dark city landscape populated with skyscrapers. Though the slot’s symbols include the royal 10 to A, all the higher value symbols are represented by various characters and guns.

The slot has 6 reels, 5 rows and it uses a pays anywhere mechanic. The RTP is 96.41%, it is high volatility and it has a top payout of 10,000 times the bet.

The Bowery Boys Features

As you play, you’ll notice that all the wins are collected and displayed as “pending win amounts” above the reel set. Once a round is over, this pending amount is paid out and the display then resets to zero.

You can unlock extra cash prizes if the strong boxes land on a key symbol. The total from this will be added to your pending amount. Every key can unlock multiple strong boxes. Each strong box will give you an increased multiplier that is either Small (x2 to x5), Medium (x10 to x25) or Large (x50 to x250).

You can multiply the pending amount by different values thanks to the Blasting Bomb Multipliers. By landing two or more of these, and by adding their values together, you’ll receive a total multiplier which can range from x2 x up to x100 your wager.

Joker Bombs Slot – Hacksaw Gaming

The theme of Joker Bombs is an amusement park with a Ferris wheel and roller coaster in the background. The game features Multiple Bombs that are able to multiply your winnings. There are also free spins on offer that trigger even more bombs.

Joker Bombs Layout

The Joker Bombs slot features 6 reels with 5 rows and it uses a pays anywhere mechanic. This means that providing you land enough of the same symbols anywhere around the screen, then you'll win. The RTP is a very healthy 96.46% and the game comes with medium volatility. The betting range starts at a tiny £0.20 and goes up to £100.

The most common symbols of the game are candy and coloured balloons. The former will pay better with combinations of 8 or more, and whilst the balloons pay out a smaller award, it's still very satisfying.

Cascading Wins

Each time you win, the winning symbols will explode and then disappear, only to be replaced by new symbols. These can then create new winning combinations and the process can repeat itself.

Multiply Bombs

If Multiple Bombs appear on the screen then it means that your winnings, which are collected after every spin, can be multiplied. There are three types of multiplier bombs:

• Normal Bomb: These bombs appear on the screen with a visible multiplier. Providing Multiple Bombs also appear on the screen, they can multiply your winnings by a factor of 2, 3, or 4. If a number of these Bombs appear, then the total of all of them is added to your payout.
• Revealing Bomb: These multipliers appear randomly and offer 10x, 20x, or 50x your bet.
• Epic Bomb: Epic Bombs come with a multiplier of 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, and 10x. An additional benefit is that they even multiply the value of the current win multiplier itself.

Free Spins

When you get three or more jack-in-the-box symbols on the screen then the free spins will be activated. You will receive 10 free spins during which it is easier to land Epic Bombs. If during the free spins you land 3 more scatters, then you'll be rewarded with an extra 5 free spins.

Chaos Crew Slot – Hacksaw Gaming

There’s definitely a punk theme running through the design of Chaos Crew. With the reels frame painted with green spray paint, along with diverse symbols ranging from skulls to lightning, this unique slot is certainly eye-catching. It is also worth mentioning that the soundtrack that accompanies the game is a perfect match.

The slot itself features a 5x5 grid layout with a total of 15 fixed pay lines. You can receive excellent payouts if you land a pair of cat and skull symbols. There are also many free spins provided.

Cranky Cat Wild

The game’s wild symbol, which comes with the lead multiplier, is known as the Cranky Cat. By forming a winning combination with the Cranky Cat, all your wins will be multiplied. The actual multiplier value starts at x2 and goes up to x3, or even x5. If you happen to land two or more multipliers on the same line, then the value of the total is multiplied.

Free Spins

If you’ve managed to land the 3 free spin symbols, then it will trigger the free spins. In the beginning, you'll be rewarded with just 3 free spins. However, should you manage to land another win during the round, then free spins counter resets to three. If at the end of 3 consecutive spins there are no wins, then the free spins come to an end.

Payouts

If you land 3, 4, or 5 identical symbols, then you'll win. There are 9 different paying symbols including a skull, a smiley, an 8-ball, a cross sign, a moth, a brain, thunder, a skull inside an apple and an octopus tentacle. The 8-ball represents the lowest multiplier symbol and will pay out the equivalent of your initial bet. On the other hand, the tentacle will reward you with 12 times the bet amount. The largest amount available on the slot is a massive 10,000 times the total bet.

Volatility

Chaos Crew slot is a highly volatile game. Therefore, then you may have to wait a while for a win to show up. Nevertheless, there is plenty going on to keep you entertained and with some huge payouts up for grabs, there is the chance of a big win.
