Game Overview

I’m a massive fan of Nolimit City and the slots they produce, and I get massively excited whenever I know a new release is on the horizon. It’s the same level of excitement I have when I’ve bought a new gadget, TV, or mobile phone. The thing is, before you can appreciate and enjoy what’s in front of you, you have to put your specs on, read through the features listed on the box/packaging, and then get into them in more detail via the instruction manual. Essentially, that’s what a Nolimit Slot is: the latest gadget that takes work to learn before you can enjoy it, wrapped in a theme that is unlikely to be found anywhere else. That theme, by the way, is a Loner guy back in the 80s who spends his day watching MTV, playing video games, and eating pizza. I feel this will be lengthy, so let’s get into what Loner, a 5×3 slot with 243 ways-to-win, a 96.06% RTP, and a 14,999x max win, has to offer.

Okay, so that’s page one of the instruction manual and the basic description out of the way. The more in-depth stuff comes as we start to flip the pages. Flipping through, I see mentions of Big Wild symbols, an xBet boost feature, and a handful of bonus buys. What jumps out, though, is a Monitor feature that can trigger all sorts of modifiers and even three bonus games. There are wilds, xSplits, infectious xWays, and multiple ways to win the 14,999x max win in one go. As for the bonus games, you can activate Pin the Win, Tick Tick Boom, and Shoot Shoot Duck, all of which can reward you with lucrative multipliers of your stake.

Are you ready to see what Nolimit City has up their sleeve this time around? Well, rather than reading through the review, you can just jump straight to the free play Loner demo slot if you’d prefer. It’s ready for you to try below.

Loner Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols

Let me reel off a few other slot games with a Loner theme – oh wait, there aren’t any. That’s one of the reasons I enjoy playing and reviewing Nolimit City slots; you know it’s not going to have a cookie-cutter theme you’ve already seen a million times. Then again, there’s a reason for that, and that’s because no other software house is ever going where Nolimit City goes. We’ve had a cannibal Karen in Karen Maneater, serial killers in Serial, possession in Posessed, psychos in Mental, and even Barbie in Kenneth Must Die, which has to be seen to be believed in all honesty.

Compared to some of those and others in the Nolimit City portfolio, Loner is actually relatively tame. The theme does make you wonder if people like this exist, which, if we’re honest, they probably do. The audio commentary is hilarious and adult-minded, so make sure you listen carefully to that. As for the paytable, there’s nothing too much to get excited about, with the Loner coming in as the top symbol and paying 5x the stake for a five of a kind win. This is followed by the Telephone, Slice of Pizza, Remote Control, and Duck, which return up to 2.5x, 2x, 1.5x, and 1.25x, respectively. The low-value pays come in the form of the playing cards with the Ace, worth up to 1.25x, and the King, Queen, Jack, and Ten all returning 1x the bet for a winning combo of five.

There are no real surprises over at the stake selections on Loner, with the minimum price to play starting at €0.20 and the maximum cost to spin the reels reaching €100. Players can choose from several enhanced betting options, which we’ll cover later in the review.

Loner Slot Base Game & Modifiers

Loner Slot Base Game

The Loner slot configuration has five reels, three rows, and 243 ways to win, which doesn’t sound too taxing on the brain, right? You’ll see later! To create winning combinations, you need to land three or more matching symbols on consecutive reels, starting from the leftmost reel first.

Big Wild Symbols

Big Wild symbols sized 2×2 or 3×3 can appear on the second and fourth reels. They can land partially or fully in view.

Monitors

Monitor symbols can appear on the first, third, and fifth reels, and if between 1 and 2 lands, one of the following modifiers will trigger:

  • Wild Symbol: The monitor symbol reveals a 1×1 wild symbol.
  • xSplit: Splits all symbols on either side of the Monitor and doubles its value. The Monitor also turns into a Wild.
  • Infectious xWays: The Monitor transforms into regular-paying symbols sized between 2 and 4. All other symbols of the same type on the reels also change in size between 2 and 4.
  • Max Win: This awards you the slot’s maximum win of 14,999x your current stake (extremely rare).

Xbet

If the pain of regular spins is too much to take and you want a better chance of triggering the bonus games, you can use the following xBet features:

  • xBet Bonus Boost: For 50% on top of your current stake, you can spin with the bonus boost, which guarantees a Monitor on the left reel.
  • xBet Double Bonus Boost: For 30x your current stake, you spin with the guarantee of a Monitor to land on each of the first and fifth reels.

If you land three of the Monitor symbols on the same base game spin, those Monitors can reveal the following features.

Bonus Rounds

  • Pin the Win: Similar to a game of pin the tail on the donkey, this feature shows a pin hovering across the screen. If it pins in one of the corners, you win between 1x your stake and the 14,999x maximum win. If it pins anywhere else, you’ll win a random amount between 1x and 500x.
  • Tick Tick Boom: If the Monitors reveal the Tick Tick Boom phrase, you trigger one pick on a picking game. Your choice will reveal a win between 5x and 1,000x your stake or even the Max Win.
  • Shoot Shoot Duck: This is a shooting game, although you have no control over the shots. A shot could:
  • Award a payout of between 1x and 12,000x.
  • Land a bomb that collects all values in view.
  • Refill your shots back to 5.
  • A van that increases in value as it collects all values in its path.
  • Or the Max Win.
  • God Mode: If the monitors spell out M.A.X, you’re awarded the slot’s maximum potential win of 14,999x your current stake.

Bonus Buy

To bypass the base game completely, you could just use the following buy bonus features instead:

  • Tick Tick Boom: Purchases this bonus for 75x your stake.
  • Pin the Win: You can buy this one for 90x.
  • Shoot Shoot Duck: You can purchase this bonus game for 185x your stake.
  • God Mode: For a chance to land the max Win of 14,999x, you can purchase God Mode for 2,604x.

Pros

  • Another feature-laden thrill ride delivered by Nolimit City.

Cons

  • Nolimit City buy bonuses are getting more insane with each release. 2,604x for a small chance at winning 14,999x!

Loner Slot Review Final Thoughts

While they often take some learning, I’m struggling to think of many slot developers that can compete with the slot game releases of Nolimit City right now. The themes usually attract attention and often controversy, but true slot connoisseurs know that Nolimit games could have no theme or use the same boring ones others do, and they’d still rocket to the top of the popularity charts. Loner is another that's surely going in that direction, so get your specs on and start reading the manual in preparation for another top slot game experience.
