Our rating:
  • A new, volatile game from developer Big Time Gaming
  • Classic theme with the reactions mechanic
  • Duplicate wilds to create more wins

Anytime a new Big Time Gaming slot is released I get excited. While their games are often relatively simple, they’re nearly always fun to play and tend to offer massive rewards. The Race slot from Big Time Gaming is no different, with a win potential over 24,000x your stake so yes, it is volatile and probably not for everyone. The theme is rather simple but classic BTG. It’s a bit of a disco theme but the background is certainly quite basic, and the main thing to look at is just the reels. There are 6 of these with a different number of positions on each, offering up to 117,649 ways to win with the extra reel at the bottom offering a fixed 4 positions. Simply spin the reels to get things going. You need at least 3 matching symbols, in most cases, from left to right to get a win. The base symbols are as follows, ranked in ascending order based on their value:

  • 9 or 10
  • Jack or Queen
  • King or Ace
  • Green Gem
  • Blue Gem
  • Red Gem
  • Purple Gem

The Race Slot Bonuses and Features

Wild Symbol. There’s a wild symbol in this game that substitutes for all others in a winning combination apart from the scatter and terminator. These symbols can duplicate, turning all symbols on that reel into wilds, but this can only happen to 1 wild on a spin.

Reactions. This is a Megaways slot, from the original maker of the mechanic too, so of course you have reactions. This means that winning symbols are removed from the reels and new ones fall in from above to fill the empty positions. If this creates another win, the same will happen and continue to do so until there are no more wins. This all happens within the same spin.

Free Spins Bonus. This is triggered when you land 3 or more scatter symbols anywhere on the reels at the same time. 3 respins are given and only hearts can land. Each of these is a life that allows you to keep playing in the free spins. When 1 or more is awarded, the number of respins resets back to 3. Once the respins end, or you get 20 hearts, the free spins start. An unlimited win multiplier is in play, starting at 1x and increasing for each reaction as long as you have enough lives. Unfortunately, you can land terminator symbols on reel 6 that reduces the number of lives by 1. Lastly, wilds from the wild duplication gain a multiplier up to 5x.

Conclusion

The Race slot from Big Time Gaming at first appears quite standard, but it definitely has some quirks. There’s not too much in the base game apart from the occasional wild duplicate, but the free spins bonus is interesting. I like the respins feature that determines how many lives you get, and the terminator symbol is unusual but obviously not great to see. With enough free spins, you can do well and win big, but sometimes the bonus ends quickly and can be disappointing so just bare that in mind.
