- A fun, creative slot with a unique design
- Lots of features available with a choice of free spins
- Low maximum payout is a bit of a shame
Gears of Time slot from Betsoft takes you to the lab of a whacky scientist who likes to play around with time travel. It’s a unique theme and the design is excellent with cool symbols and a good background. Speaking of the design, there are 5 reels here with 5 rows and it’s a cluster slot, meaning symbols only need to be in groups of 3 or more to give you a win, lower than you’d normally see on a cluster slot like this. The symbols in question are as follows, ranked in ascending order based on their value:
- Bronze Cog
- Silver Cog
- Gold Cog
- Glasses
- Watch
- Robot
- Scientist
There’s a wild symbol also which substitutes for all of the above symbols in a winning combination.

Gears of Time Slot Bonuses and Features
Clusters of Time. This is a unique feature whereby on each spin, 5 positions will be randomly selected and at the end of every cascade, any of these positions can become a winning cluster. The more winning clusters on the positions, the better your chances at triggering a time travelling feature. If all 5 positions are covered by winning clusters, the free spins bonus is triggered:
- The Past. Here your last spin is replayed and at the end of it, another cascade of non-matching symbols will occur. This repeats 5 times.
- The Present. This is a more simple feature, giving you a 2x-20x multiplier on all wins from your initial spin.
- The Future. Here a random symbol is selected from the grid and more of these will be added to the reels in a respin.
Free Spins Bonus. Here you get to choose from the past, present or future, each giving you a different number of free spins:
- Past. This gives you the most free spins at 12. In all free spins, an extra cascade at the end of each spin is awarded.
- Present. With 10 free spins this time, a multiplier of 2x-20x is given to every spin.
- Future. With just 6 free spins, 10 or more symbols, all the same and chosen at random, will appear on each spin. The symbol changes with each spin as well.
Conclusion
Gears of Time slot from Betsoft has a really interesting theme and plenty of features to go with it. These are all time-related, but for the most part they’re fairly familiar features that you’ve probably seen in other slots. These include multipliers of up to 20x, adding a large number of randomly chosen symbols and extra cascades which is quite a cool one and not one often found elsewhere either. I like how the free spins bonus gives you a choice of features and which bonus you choose will probably depend on whether you want to win big and take a risk or be a bit more conservative. All in all, it’s an impressive slot that’s a lot of fun to play, but the maximum win potential is quite low at just over 1,000x your stake which is a shame. You can find other Betsoft slots here if you’re interested too.
