Reel Rush

According to the expert developers at NetEnt, Reel Rush is designed to have the appeal of a Super Mario title, and just like those games, it’s more complex than it appears at first glance. While it appears to be a regular fruit-themed online casino slot there’s unusual action at play that makes it an impressive and entertaining all-rounder. Respins are where the main activity takes place; in the main game, there are up to 1875 ways to win and 3125 possible winning combinations in Free Spins. That leaves plenty of room for fun to take place, if luck is on your side. This game offers a fresh take on fruit-themed slots. Why not try a spin or two of Reel Rush at Wildz Casino?

Design

Reel Rush is a game with opening patterns that repeat on reels 4 and 5, which means the basic reel grid looks a bit like a cross. This makes Reel Rush unusual and provides the basis for the interesting gameplay. At the time of its release in 2013, the original design hit all the right notes with players. The background is pleasant, appearing like an old-school video game environment where the scenery is meant to stay muted so that the action on the reels can come to the fore. The symbols offer the chance to secure wins when landed in combination: there are lower paying coloured disc symbols (red, orange, yellow, green and purple) and the oblong-shaped fruit symbols: pineapples, lemons, grapes, watermelons and blueberries, as well as strawberries, with the latter being the jackpot symbol.

Gameplay

Reel Rush is a 5-reel, 5-row grid on which the active play area takes the form of a cross. The game starts with locked and unlocked reels. On the first reel, four of the five blocks are locked (which leaves one open). On the second reel, two of the five blocks are locked. Finally, all five blocks are unlocked on the third reel. The goal is to obtain combinations of matching symbols from left to right on any three reels as long as they’re adjacent, but the real action kicks in when respins and Free Spins are triggered if you’re lucky. Any winning combination triggers a respin while also unlocking more space on the reels. The more space that’s available, the more opportunities there are to secure combination wins on subsequent spins.

Bonuses and features

Hitting consecutive re-spins increases the number of paylines in view and your chances of hitting a winning combination. This feature can also trigger the Reel Rush Free Spins bonus round. In the Free Spins round, the playing area opens up even more allowing for 3125 winning combination possibilities. The key to this game is hitting winning combinations one after the other. After each win the possibilities of a winning combination increase dramatically as the reels open up. This is a game well-suited to the patient player.

Play Reel Rush on the move

Reel Rush is a game that renders well on a mobile device as the developers have optimised it for mobile and it can also be enjoyed on a desktop PC; you can play wherever you like according to your preferences.

Volatility

The Return-To-Player rate in Reel Rush is 94.5%, which is fairly standard for a slot game, so it’s a fun title for newcomers to play, especially if you’re patient enough to wait for the respin action to heat up.

Worth a try?

If you enjoy the simplicity of a regular fruit-themed game but you’d like to try one with a bit more bonus feature action Reel Rush makes a great next-step title. The respin feature adds a whole new dimension to the game, as do the locked and unlocked positions on the reels. If you’re fortunate enough to land a Free Spins round you’ll definitely see the value in the game since it can produce decent wins. There’s even a sequel title in Reel Rush 2; the developers have noted that this is a game popular enough to appeal to a wide audience.
