Slot Overview
Always Up! x10000 is a very high-volatility slot from BGaming, and it’s a sequel to the original, but this time, it has a larger grid, tiered scatter triggers, and a crash-style bonus. Most of the action is based around the exciting Rocket Race feature, and with a maximum win potential of 10,490x, it looks good. But does this “hybrid” sequel strike the right balance between risk and reward? Let’s find out.
Theme & Design
Always Up! x10000 is set during a Chinese festival, and you’ll see fireworks, rockets, and lucky symbols as soon as you load the game, all set against a dark, star-filled night sky. The expanded reel layout immediately feels more familiar than the original, while neon-coloured rockets and somewhat glossy, we’d say, symbols give the game a modern, arcade-like energy.
Now, it’s the Rocket Race bonus that’s clearly the game’s core highlight, and we’ll talk more about this a little later in this review. If, however, you’re wondering whether this will be a game that appeals to you, if you enjoyed titles like Aviator or even the previous Always Up!, then we have no doubts you’ll feel right at home here!
Always Up! 10000x Gameplay & Bonus Features
Always Up! x10000 runs on a 5-reel, 3-row grid with 10 fixed paylines, and you can bet between €0.10 and €24 per spin. The game offers a marginally above-average RTP of 96.05%, which isn’t bad.
Now, pretty much the entire game revolves around the Rocket Race bonus, and this is triggered by landing 3+ Scatter symbols in view. The number of Scatters that land determines the potential max win for the bonus:
- 3 Scatters: Max win of 999x
- 4 Scatters: Max win of 2,997x
- 5 Scatters: Max win of 9,990x
During the Rocket Race, you simply need to choose one of five rockets. All rockets launch at the same time, and they each then display a rising multiplier that grows as the rocket gets higher before they eventually explode. The payout you win is determined by the rocket’s position when it explodes; the higher, the better!
Bonus Buy
Always Up! X10000 contains four different Bonus Buy options:
- 3 Scatter Bonus: 80x your bet
- Mystery Bonus: 100x your bet
- 4 Scatter Bonus: 240x your bet
- 5 Scatter Bonus: 800x your bet
Pros
- Pretty unique crash-style mechanics.
- Fairly high base game win potential.
- A solid sequel to the original.
Cons
- VERY low hit frequency.
- Top Bonus Buy option is very expensive.
- Not much “action” outside the bonuses.
Always Up! 10000x Slot Review Final Thoughts
Always Up! x10000 is a solid, confident sequel to the original game, and we like how BGaming has, clearly, fully embraced the “risk” factor here. It’s quite a unique concept, having different win caps depending on how many Scatter symbols you land, and while this won’t appeal to everyone, for us, it’s quite cool.
The game offers a high maximum win potential of just over 10,000x, and that’s a LOT better than the 559x seen in the original. Still, with this increased win potential comes heightened volatility - so don’t expect the base game to be particularly kind.
However, if you enjoyed the original, or if you’re looking for something that’s a “true” old-school slot; volatile, exciting, and unforgiving, then Always Up! x10000 could be worth checking out.
