Reel Rush is a fun NetEnt game with up to 3,125 ways to win in which you can win up to 480,000 coins.

It’s a game with Super Mario-type graphics and sounds. It revolves around a re-spin mechanism that reveals the 5×5 reel set gradually, and if you reveal the entire board you get 8 free spins with 3,125 ways to win!

Reel Rush introduction, including RTP and variance

Reel Rush has five reels, it’s actually a 5×5 reel set, but almost half of the positions are hidden, and they can only be revealed with consecutive re-spin wins. Initially, it’s a 1-3-5-3-1 configuration, and, after each win, two more positions will be revealed, and this will happen in six stages of re-spins.

That means you need to land six consecutive wins to reveal the entire 5×5 reel set, and at that point, the game will have 3,125 ways to win and will also generously award 8 free spins using the same setup.

The theoretical payout comes in four possible settings: 90.06%, 92.05%, 94.05%, and 96.96%. The variance is medium.

The game is easy to play, and the rules are simple enough – you progress through the game by opening the reels, thus creating more ways to win and increasing your chances of landing big wins.

Reel Rush gameplay and paytable

The game has six high-paying symbols and six low-paying symbols which all pay the same. With this large number of symbols, it’s often difficult to connect a winning payline, but overall, the game strikes a delicate balance between being easy to play and issuing big wins.

It’s likely your balance will be hovering around the same value, the game often pays enough and won’t dig too deep into your bankroll.

What’s good about the game is that it’s all about re-spins, and so with a single bet you can get up to five re-spins, and then 8 free spins on top, which sums up to 13 spins issued for free, and you only pay for the one that started the series. With this considered, the paytable is quite generous.

Bonus Features

It’s possible to reach the free spins game often, and it’s the first two wins that are the hardest to achieve, as when the first reels open up it gets much easier. When the first reel opens up completely, likely, you’ll also get the sixth consecutive win and will trigger the free spins.

During the free spins, which cannot be retriggered, you will get 8 free spins with all 3,125 ways to win.

CasinoWizard’s verdict: 4 out of 5 stars

Reel Rush is a fun and straightforward Netent slot that’s easy to play and that gives the overall impression that it’s always possible to reach the final stage of the game.

And it is, except for the fact that you’ll need luck to get a big win during the free spins game.

This is a good slot game for those players who enjoy the setup and who want to toy around with this unique gameplay mechanics. Definitely a slot that should be tried out.
