Wixx

Intro

Nolimit City’s Wixx is packed full of bright and colourful crystals, with plenty of excitement hidden within. It’s an 81-payline game deployed across four reels and three rows. The RTP is a solid 96.61%, while the volatility is much more extreme at 8/10. As a result, this is a game best suited for players who are happy to take some risks to go for bigger rewards.

Wixx’s bonus feature revolves around a respin feature, with a variety of different possibilities depending on which crystals the player is able to bring into the mix. If you like simple but effective bonuses with plenty of multipliers, Wixx is well worth a spin.

Wixx’s 96.61% RTP rate is just above average, meaning that over the course of billions of spins, £96.61 will be paid out to players from every £100 wagered. Naturally, this won’t be noticeable in an individual session. What will be noticeable, however, is the volatility of this game. Nolimit City has rated Wixx an 8/10, so it’s right up there with the most highly volatile slots on the market. This essentially means it’s a pretty risky affair — players should expect to go on some winless runs, seeing as the average hit frequency is one in five spins. The pay off is the sizable max payout of 2,796x the stake.

There isn’t a bonus round as such in the Wixx online slot, but there is a respin feature that incorporates a series of added surprises. Known as a Booster Respin, this is where players can land the biggest payouts of the game. To activate the bonus, players need to land four of any of the crystal symbols — Ruby, Topaz or Sapphire. Which crystals you land dictates which bonuses are in play during the respin:

• Wild Ruby Booster – 4 Ruby symbols awards a respin. Rubies turn into Wilds and can land stacked.
• Multiplier Topaz Booster – 4 Topaz crystals awards a respin. If you get a winning combination including any of the crystals, the payout is multiplied by 5. The Topaz symbol is stacked during the respin.
• Sapphire Booster – They call this one Blue Gems Mania. 4 Sapphire symbols awards a respin. Sapphires become stacked and reel 4 will only hold Sapphires, leading to more wins.
• Super Booster Spin: Ruby & Sapphire – 4 symbols made up of both Ruby and Sapphire symbols awards a super booster respin. Rubies transform into Wilds and both symbols are stacked. Reel 4 only holds Wild symbols.
• Super Booster Spin: Sapphire & Topaz – 4 symbols made up of both Sapphire and Topaz symbols awards a super booster respin. Rubies turn Wild. Ruby, Sapphire and Wilds spin in stacked formation and reel 4 only holds Wild symbols.
• Super Booster Spin: Ruby & Topaz – 4 symbols made up of both Topaz and Sapphire symbols awards a super booster respin. Ruby and Topaz symbols become stacked and all Rubies turn into Wilds. All wins on crystal symbols benefit from a 5x multiplier.

Players looking for a bonus round that deviates from the base game may not find what they’re looking for here, but the combination of multipliers and respins certainly leads to plenty of payout potential, up to the maximum win of 2,796x.

Like all Nolimit City’s slots, Wixx was developed using HTML5. As a result, it’s been optimised for all devices since its inception, including mobiles and tablets. We’ve found the game performs just as well across all devices, with the smooth gameplay and animations adding to the overall experience.

Wixx’s crystal and gem-filled slot reels will appeal to fans of cult classics like Starburst and Diamond Strike. It’s a very streamlined design — the brightly-coloured crystals dominate the reel set, with just a dimly-lit logo seeping through the hazy background. Overall, it’s a crisp and powerful aesthetic, particularly when the respins kick in and the reels are hit with a bolt of lightning. The high-intensity soundtrack adds to the excitement of the bonus rounds, before returning to more gentle, glistening sound effects for the regular spins.
