Neon Rush Slot

Neon Rush gives players a futuristic experience full of bright colors (one would hope so with “Neon” in its name) and an electrified cityscape, albeit with a fairly dull soundtrack.

The new Yggdrasil online slot game also gives players an interesting feature – Splitz. The 5x3 appearance of Neon Rush is deceptively simple because, depending on which reel the Splitz symbol lands on, it turns itself into a number of matching symbols, up to 5 of a kind.

Neon Rush is a 5-reel game with three rows. It has 10 lines no matter what so players enjoying online real money slots are always betting 10 coins per line. There are two high symbols – a bright green one and an even brighter pink one – that pay 40 coins for three on a payline, 56 for four, 80 for five and so forth up to 20,000 for 15 on a a payline. Three lower symbols (hexagon, diamond and triangle) pay between 20 and 10,000 depending on how many land on a payline.

The paylines work left to right starting with the first reel. There is a free spins symbol in the base game and does not have to be on a payline to award a prize. The Wild symbol substitutes for all other symbols. Just hit the “I” button on the bottom left of the home screen to access the paytable, which explains all of the symbols, jackpots, Free Spins, Wilds and so forth.

Most of all, be on the lookout for a dollar sign ($) symbol: That one reveals a Jackpot powerup and the most unique aspect of this game: The Splitz symbol.

When you hit a Splitz, that square produces between one and five matching symbols. The more symbols on a payline, the bigger your winnings. The maximum number of symbols per Splitz depends on the reel: Reel 1 only gives up one symbol, Reel 2 gives up one or two and so on until Reel 5, which can give up to five winning symbols. Assemble 15 symbols in a payline for maximum payout.

Yggdrasil has made the Neon Rush online slot available on mobile devices. Players seeking a real money online slot available on their Android or iOS platforms can play Neon Rush wherever it’s convenient.

The random jackpot size depends on how many jackpot symbols land and how many hidden symbols is beneath each one. You can get up to 10 of these symbols, called Jackpot Energy, to get up to 25,000 times your bet. Get 10 in one spin on a 40-unit bet and you’re looking at a 1,000,000 jackpot!

The different jackpot levels are Rush (200 units), Neon (800), Hyper (2,000), Mega (4,000), Superior (20,000) and Ultra (1,000,000). Again, those are all based on the max bet of 40 per spin.

The Neon Rush game has an autoplay feature starting with 10 spins and going up to infinite spins.

The dollar sign symbol can also reveal the Wild, a simple W. But it’s not just one – a single wild square can be hiding up to five wilds, giving you a chance to greatly increase your winnings.

When you get free spins, the Splitz symbols exclusively award Wild and Jackpot symbols. Did we mention that the highest Jackpot is 1,000,000?

Get bonus spins to multiply depending on the number of Free Spin symbols. Three Free Spins symbols earn you 10 free spins, four symbols lead to 20 free spins and the big prize, five Free Spins, means 30 bonus spins are coming your way.

The maximum bet in the Neon Rush online slot is 40 units. The game has an RTP of 96.3% and a hit frequency of 20.3% -- perhaps a little lower than those accustomed to playing at the best slot sites might expect.

Neon Rush has a very high maximum win of 25,676 times your stake for a whopping maximum jackpot of 1,027,040 (including the max Random Jackpot plus other payouts), enough to keep any real money slots player interested.

This medium- to high-variance slot could well be a big hit with those seeking mega stakes without having to break the bank. That big of a potential jackpot is worth 40 per spin to high rollers.

Neon Rush is indeed a rush for players of all levels. The game is fairly easy to play and exciting even without the exploding reels and other bells and whistles that come with similar online slot games for money.

For those seeking online games with lower variance, there’s the Narcos online slot from NetEnt. That one, based on the Netflix series, is a low- to medium-variance game with 243 paylines and a maximum bet of 400. Players seeking a theme more similar to Neon Rush can check out Multiplier Mayhem, another medium- to high-volatility online slot.
