Twister (Netent) Slot Demo & Review

I can safely say quite a few of you have probably had your fair share of tangled-up fun trying to master the legendary Twister mat against friends and family members. Whether you were the one who could rightfully lay claim as the foot-on-blue, hand-on-red champion or the one who consistently fell to the ground giggling, this classic party game has delivered you plenty of memories. My knees are starting to throb just thinking about trying to play it at my age but believe me when I say I used to be able to get into all sorts of uncompromising positions playing that game in years gone by. Unless the title hasn’t given it away, today’s slot from NetEnt is themed on that iconic game, but instead of tying yourself up in knots, the main goal is to land some winning combinations. Twister is a 4-reel, 6-row, and 1,296 ways-to-win slot with a 96.04% RTP and a maximum win of 4,300x the stake.   

The Twister mat itself is used as the reels on this slot, but you won’t have to worry about putting your hands and feet anywhere, just landing payouts aided by Twister Spinner symbols that give you a spin of a wheel that determines what wild symbol bonus you’re rewarded. Up for grabs are multiplier wilds with values of up to 5x, sticky wilds that can remain on the reels for up to 5 consecutive symbol cascades, random wilds, or symbol upgrades which convert all instances of a low-paying symbol into the same type of high-value symbol. Spins play out the same once you trigger the free spins bonus, although you now have a persistent global win multiplier that grows 1x for each Twister Spinner symbol that lands. 

The Twister slot offers several spins and turns, but is it one of those titles that show plenty of promise but eventually leave you all bent out of shape? I guess you’ll find out if you put your right hand onto the White spot of the Twister slot demo below (or click on it if you’re on a computer!)

Modern technology has greatly altered how we find entertainment these days, with most of what we need found in mobile phones in the palms of our hands for hours upon hours every day. However, in the old days, there was nothing better than playing games like Twister or even board games such as Monopoly or Trivial Pursuit with those closest to us. As with Twister for this release, a few of those games have crossed over into iGaming as well. Monopoly Big Baller is a live casino bingo gameshow from Evolution, while there’s a slot too, Monopoly Megaways from Big Time Gaming. Pragmatic Play also scored another slot hit when it released Snakes and Ladders: Snake Eyes not so long ago.

Rolling the dice on classic games like those always made fond memories, but can you create more when taking your chances on the Twister slot? Well, in terms of symbol payouts, the best you can hope for is a 1x the stake return from the Red Character when it lines up four times across consecutive reels. The Yellow Character is up next with a 0.75x maximum reward, while the Blue and Green Characters both pay up to 0.5x. The Ace, King, Queen, and Jack are in charge of the lower symbol payouts all have a top return of 0.20x. While those returns are small, you have to remember this is a cascading reels slot, so most of the time, you’ll win multiple payouts on the same spin. 

If you’re considering playing the Twister slot for real money, you’ll find a variety of suitable bet sizes, with a minimum of €0.20 allowed and a maximum bet of €100.00 supported. 

Base Game & Modifiers

Four reels and six rows form Twister’s playing grid, and across them are 1,296 ways to win. When three or four more matching symbols land on consecutive reels from left to right, you’re paid out according to the combination rewards shown on the slot’s paytable. 

All wins trigger the Avalanche features, which remove winning symbols, causing more to tumble in from above. Most of you are probably familiar with how that works by now, as new tumbles can create additional wins, causing further avalanches and potentially more wins. The whole process continues until no more combos are created.

Twister Spinner Symbols

If you’re familiar with the famous Twister mat game, you’ll recognise the Twister Spinner symbols that can appear on the reels during regular spins and the free spins bonus. When they land, you receive a spin on the Twister Wheel, which will reward a type of wild symbol:

  • Upgrade Wild: If the spinner stops on one of the four sections of the Upgrade Wild quarter of the wheel, all instances of that position’s low-value symbol are upgraded into the same high-paying symbol. 

  • Multiplier Wild: This transforms the Twister Spinner symbol into a Multiplier Wild holding the 2x, 3x, 4x, or 5x multiplier value the spinner landed on. That value applies to any payouts the wild helps create.  

  • Locked Wild: This transforms the Twister Spinner symbol into a Locked Wild that remains sticky on the reels for 2, 3, 4, or 5 consecutive avalanches. 

  • Random Wild: 1, 2, 3, or 4 random wilds are added to random positions on the reels.  

No matter the type of win that lands, they all substitute for all regular symbols when winning combinations are possible.

The Twister Symbols and the subsequent Twister Wheel they conjure up also appear in the slot’s free spins bonus. How does that all work? Let me explain.

Free Spins Bonus

Landing 3 scatter symbols in any position on the reels during a base game spin triggers 6 free spins, while 4 get you 11. Throughout the bonus game, 2, 3, or 4 of those scatters on the same spin reward you with an additional 1, 2, or 4 free spins, respectively. 

There’s an additional bonus each time the Twister Spinner symbols land during this bonus. You’ll receive a spin on the Twister Wheel to reveal a wild symbol, and a progressive global win multiplier increases by 1x for each of the Spinners that land. The multiplier does not reset in between spins.

Bonus Buy

For those of you who enjoy taking higher risks for the chance of higher rewards, you can purchase the 3 or 4 scatters symbols required to trigger the free spins bonus for 100x the current spin bet. 


Pros

  • The design of the slot is clever and the presentation is at the high standard of most NetEnt slots. 
  • The Twister Spinner symbols and the wilds they can create combine well with the Avalanche feature to potentially create handsome payouts.
  • A classic blast from the past.

Cons

  • The payouts for symbol combinations are on the lower side, especially considering the game's high volatility.

Twister Slot Review Final Thoughts

Twister brings back the fun and chaos of the classic party game, but does it deliver on the reels? Well, the nostalgic nods and clever use of the Twister Spinner keep things interesting, especially with wild bonuses adding that extra twist (pun intended) to the gameplay. Sure, the payouts aren't huge, but remember, it's all about the chain reactions with those cascading wins. I haven't been impressed with many of NetEnt’s most recent releases up until now, and while this isn't a game-changer, it's more entertaining than what I've seen of late from the provider.
