Play Reel Riot for Free

Reel Riot is as retro as it gets, with a true old-school casino atmosphere and yet lots of ways to win at every spin.

The entire game screen was designed to look like a big and square slot machine, with a lever on the side ready to let you spin the reels. The command buttons are heavy and metallic switches on a leopard print, whereas the symbols have clearly undergone some sort of makeover to give them a realistic 3D look.

As you can see, Reel Riot is full of contrasts and still gives of a very 1980s casino vibe. We will see how this pans out in the next section.

Reel Riot, just like many other retro slot games, bets on simplicity to attract players who are looking for a straightforward and fast experience on the reels.

As a result, the game features 3 reels and a single payline. This line cross the reels horizontally right in the middle, indicating where symbol combinations need to land in order to be valid and therefore trigger a specific cash prize.

And that is it, there is nothing left to do in Reel Riot once you have chosen your wager but pull the lever on the right-hand side to send the reels spinning at once. The more you bet on the reels, the larger your future rewards can become. Notice the large hold buttons under each reel, as they are the only other gameplay option that you have. You can use them to hold individual reels in place for one more turn, just to get another chance to perhaps score a big win. But as you can see, Reel Riot is rather limited in terms of gameplay. Let’s see what else the game has in store for us.

Reel Riot is filled with delicious-looking fruit symbols, yet another classic feature for retro slot games. Let’s have a look at the paytable here to see what are the prizes at stake.

The cherries, apples, bananas and grapes are by far the most common symbols of the game. Depending on your wager, you can win up to 200 credits with these combinations of symbols.

Continuing down the list, you will find pears, plums and watermelons with a maximum reward of 400 credits. That is it for the usual fruits symbols, but keep the reels spinning and you might spot the rare double wild symbol, whose combination can multiply your wager by 1,000. With a maximum bet into play, a double wild combination unlocks the progressive jackpot as displayed on top of the reels.

The double wild symbols have two different characteristics in Reel Riot. As we have seen previously, they are by far the most valuable symbols of the game so whatever you do you should stay on the lookout for them at all times.

By landing 3 double wilds on the screen without triggering a cash win in the process will also open the way to the Reel Riot bonus game. The slot machine will now be split between 3 horizontal lines at once, with al symbols replaced by numbers and a “stop” icon.

Pull the lever to highlight a position on the reels. If it is a number, your wager is multiplied by it and you might get a chance to move on to the next line. Keep it going until you hit the “stop” sign.

Reel Riot is truly sticking to the core elements of the genre thanks to its ultra simple gameplay and classic reel symbols.

That being said, the stakes are high at every spin and the bonus game, although quite basic, can really yield some nice extra cash rewards if you are lucky.
