Having given this game a real hot test-drive – our hearts are still racing, we have to say that like the show itself, the game is a whirlwind of action-packed entertainment.

And in this regard, it is absolutely marvelous!

Game Setup, Symbols
In the Nitro Circus slot game, the ramp for nerve-wracking spinning stunts is set on the 5×4 reel configuration ground where players have a chance to take advantage of 25 pay lines. Unsurprisingly, the audacious stunt performers constitute the group of the priciest symbols. Travis, as the leader of the show, is worth the most – 50 x the wager if 5 icons with his image land on a single pay line. On the other hand, the three kinds of helmets represent the low-paying group of symbols.
Furthermore, the game features a wild, a Nitro bomb icon and the letters N, I, T, R, O. The last two unlock special features which we touch on below.
Features
Nitro Blast Minigame
It is definitely fantastic news that the base game is thick with winning opportunities. Specifically, 2 nitro bomb icons on the reels unlock the minigame dubbed Nitro Blast. In this minigame, you are randomly rewarded with 1 of the 5 winning prizes:
- free spins (10-30)
- nitro wild: in the base game the nitro bomb icons will blast to transform up to 9 symbols into wilds
- free spins multiplier: the multiplier in the freebies bonus round will grow by up to 3 times
- one vehicle added: you will get one of the four vehicles to the relevant collection
- additional free spins: you will be granted up to 3 extra freebies in the free spins bonus round
Free Spins
Be on the lookout for at least 3 nitro bomb icons as this explosive trio prompts the free spins bonus round topped with the Nitro Blast minigame. Moreover, the minigame in question is upgraded as it comes with the opportunity to choose features to your liking.
To elaborate on this, 3 nitro bombs trigger 10 free spins and a chance to choose 1 feature. 4 nitro bombs activate 20 free spins hand in hand with a 2 features choice option. Finally, 5 nitro bomb icons unlock 30 free spins with a chance to pick 3 features.
Completing Vehicle Collection
There are 4 types of transportation means required for the performance of the stunts: a pink car, a rocking horse, a chair, and a bath. If you manage to collect 5 of the same kind of vehicles, you will be treated to the Nitro Jump feature with the corresponding vehicle.
All of the vehicles are powered by certain features. For instance, stronger tricks will result in bigger cash awarded by judges upon the initial 3 jumps. The bigger size of your transportation machine will translate into good cash grasped high in the air. The better boost means a greater multiplier achieved during the ultimate jump. So look closely at your options:
A pink car: boost – 5/5, size – 3/5, tricks – 2/5.
A rocking horse: boost – 1/5, size – 4/5, tricks – 5/5
A chair: boost – 3/5, size – 5/5, tricks – 2/5
A bath: boost – 5/5, size – 2/5, tricks – 3/5
Nitro Jump Special Feature
Apart from the vehicle collection option, there is one more way to kickstart the Nitro Jump feature – you simply need to land all the letters N, I, T, R, O upon a single spin. As soon as it happens, and to show off your stunt prowess, you will be prompted to pick one of the following vehicles: FMX, BMW, or Scooter.
Subsequently, you will need to buckle up and perform 3 initial stunts followed by the final Boost Jump. All the 3 jumps will be assessed by a panel of judges and are rewarded according to the complexity of the stunts (6-625 coins). What is more, at this point, you will be also entitled to grab up to 6 winning prizes: 25 coins, the speed upgrade for the ultimate Boost Jump, the multiplier for the final Boost Jump, and 10 freebies.
Once the initial 3 jumps are done and dusted, you will be able to benefit from the final Nitro Boost Jump. Here, you will have to make a choice: to either apply a proper speed boost to achieve an impressive multiplier upon landing, but risk smashing your vehicle and losing all the chances to multiply winnings or to play safe and achieve less impressive cash prizes.
Verdict
Although Nitro Circus might seem like a slightly complicated slot game, it is exquisitely and uniquely crafted. Yggdrasil’s touch on the craziest stunt riders show in the world is highly commendable in terms of both visuals and uniquely executed features.
So buckle up and stand a chance to scoop 2000 x your wager in the Nitro Circus slot game. Multipliers hand in hand with retriggers during the free spins bonus game or a supreme stunt performance in the Nitro Jump game can do the trick for you!
