Game Overview

A mighty barbarian, cunning assassin, precise archer, and mystical sorceress walk into a bar; no, this is not the beginning of a cheesy joke; it’s the setting for a NetEnt slot release. This jolly Viking come fantasy environment looks like a great place to be; the drinks are flowing, catchy country music plays, and a warm, open fireplace glows in the background, but judging by the title of this game, things could be about to turn violent. It’s called Rage, and it’s a medium volatility, five-reel slot with an RTP of 96.07% and a potential maximum win of 1,860x.

The slot action takes place on a five-reel grid set up in a 2-2-4-4-4 formation and uses 256 payways. There are two ways to make winning combinations, with low paying symbols providing a return in the usual fashion by matching them from left to right along consecutive reel positions and high value symbols paying in a scatter pays format, provided they have been matched on the first two reels beforehand. These premium symbols can land in colossal variants to assist with this, fully covering the initial two reels, which will initiate a re-spin, and can also appear as combined symbols of two or four characters to help form even more wins. The scatter also appears as a colossal symbol, requiring you to land only one of these 4×4 squares to trigger the bonus, which begins with up to 16 free spins and introduces sticky wilds to the party.

I don’t know about you, but sometimes I open up a slot, and it just gives me good vibes. This is one of those, and I’m really enjoying its atmospheric tavern scene. It seems to be full of interesting characters who would have some great stories to tell. Check it out for yourself and see what you think. The Rage demo slot is free to play below!

Rage Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols

It’s difficult to squeeze this title into one exact theme category as it’s a concoction of various elements rolled into one, from Vikings and magic to beer and brawling. However, and this may be slightly out there, but when I first loaded it up, I was struck by a wave of nostalgia as it immediately reminded me of SG Gaming’s old-school classic Bruce Lee, which I guess is mainly due to it having the same 2-2-4-4-4-reel set-up. That aside, if it’s Vikings you’re after, you won’t find much better than Vikings Unleashed Reloaded, with its insane gamble options and a huge maximum win of 50,000x. Or, if it’s some magic inspired slotting fun that you’re craving, Blueprint Gaming’s Madame of Mystic Manor could be just the tonic. It features a spooky clairvoyant who may well foresee a big win in your future. Those first few jugs of ale have gone down a treat; now it’s time to get the next round in, pull up a pew, and discuss the features of Rage in more detail, starting with the pay values.

Eight different symbols can be found over at the paytable, comprised of four high and four low paying variants, and the top payout for each is achieved by matching a winning combination of five. The top symbol is the Mighty Barbarian at 4x, followed by the Cunning Assassin at 3.2x, the Precise Archer at 2.4x, and the final premium symbol, the Mystical Sorceress, who will pay 1.6x for a line of five. The non-premiums are the A and K, worth 0.8x, and the Q and J, which will both return 0.6x the stake for each way of five.

How many gold coins will it cost for a beverage at this establishment? Well, I’m not sure, but I do have details of the stake options for you. These range from a low of €0.25 to a high of €250.00, and there are a massive number of options available between these two values for real money players to get stuck into.

Rage Slot Base Game

The Gameplay takes place on a 2-2-4-4-4 grid, and wins are achieved in two different ways depending on the type of symbol involved. Non-premiums pay in conventional style, requiring you to match a minimum of three from left to right, starting on the leftmost reel across any consecutive reel positions, and it doesn’t matter which row these are on, thanks to the ways pay system. Premium symbols pay in scatter pays style as long as they have landed in a colossal reel on rows one and two; any others that appear after that will count towards the win value, regardless of grid position, and they do not need to land on consecutive reels.

Colossal Symbols

Premium symbols, combined symbols, and the scatter symbol can appear as colossal 2×2 symbols on reels one and two. When landing as high paying symbols, they can appear as either a single symbol type or a combination of two or four separate premium symbols. Single colossal high paying symbols count as their respective symbol when connecting with matching symbols further along the grid, and combined colossal symbols count as two or four symbols that will substitute for any of the premium variants featured in the paytable.

Respins

Any winning combination that begins with a colossal symbol will activate the re-spin feature. The colossal symbol and any other matching symbols on the grid will remain in position, and the reels will spin again, potentially landing additional matching symbols. This will continue until no further matching symbols land. At this point, the re-spin feature will end, and the relevant payout will be awarded.

Rage Slot Bonus Features

Rage Slot Free Spins Feature

Landing a colossal scatter symbol on reels one and two will trigger the free spins bonus. A re-spin will occur, and any further scatters that land will award additional spins. The number of starting spins can vary from 4 to 16.

Free Spins Feature

During this bonus, any premium symbols that land on reels 3, 4, and 5, as part of a re-spin, may randomly turn into sticky wilds and remain in position for the duration of the feature.

Bonus Buy

Players may choose to buy the bonus feature directly on Rage via the Bonus Buy button. There is just one option available, and selecting it will trigger the free spins bonus with a random number of spins between 4 and 16 for a cost of 80x the selected base stake value.

Pros

  • It has great graphics and an entertaining theme.
  • Fun features in both the base and bonus games

Cons

  • Low maximum win.

Rage Slot Review Final Thoughts

I enjoyed testing Rage; it’s a fun slot that has plenty of charm and a positive atmosphere about it. The gameplay is made entertaining in the base thanks to the colossal symbols and re-spins, and I like that only one symbol is required to trigger the bonus, which it does not seem shy about landing. The addition of the sticky wilds in the free spins round works well on top of the standard base game features. In my view, it is let down slightly by a lack of win potential, which is evident by the low symbol pay values and the absence of any sort of multiplier element, but if you can see past that, there is plenty of enjoyment to be had on this slot.
