Bally Tech have just announced the launch of their Rocket Returns slot. This new game is one of the final games to be released in 2015, so everybody in the online casino world is hoping that their year ends on a high, and that this slot delivers.
The new game is optimised for mobile casino users – which is a rarity for Bally Tech – and that gets us off to a good start. Furthermore, the slot has an unconventional 9 reels for you to spin, upon which sit 228 paylines. So far, so good.
Rocket Returns has a bit of a retro themed about it, perhaps space invaders meets Minecraft, if you will. The simplistic retro building block game can also be played on desktop and laptop computers, and costs no more than 15p a pop, making it quite cheap given the sheer number of reels and lines you get to play with.
Rocket Returns does contain a free spins bonus, and this bonus round can see you win multipliers worth up to 5x in total. Players will always start the free spins bonus with just 5 free spins, although that can rise higher by landing more scatters on the reels.
The best part of the free spins bonus is that it is entirely possible for players to win 1,268x your total bet. That is a sheer cash prize for a simple slot like this, and especially one which costs so little to play.
It is also worth pointing out that although there are 9 reels and a bucket load of paylines, the slot is something of a high variance game. You may have to wait a while to land wins, but when you do, they will be rather spectacular. This is because it doesn’t pay out for the simple, petite winning combinations you are used to. With 9 reels, you’ll need to be substantially luckier than normal.
The slot should be available at all good casinos offering Bally Tech software from this week onwards.
