These include the Wild Time feature, activated randomly on any spin, adding between 5 and 20 wild symbols to the reels. This feature is expanded upon during each of the three available variants of the free spins bonus, all of which begin with 10 spins but have various starting counts of between 50 and 200 wilds, all of which must be added to the reels at some point across those 10 free spins.

The Belt Of Champion Bonus Buy Paytable
The Belt of Champion Bonus Buy paytable

The world of combat sports has always been popular, dating back to ancient Rome, where legendary gladiators battled it out in the Colosseum, and I’d imagine it goes far further back than that. These days, boxing and MMA are most spectators’ favourite varieties, and those sports now feature regularly in the slot scene, too. The PG Soft catalogue is a great place to start for fight fans; they have some great titles available in this genre. Gladiator’s Glory is one of the best, or if you prefer your violence to be more chicken orientated, check out Rooster Rumble; it’s a medium volatility slot with a potential maximum win of 20,000x. Up next, though, before you try out those games, we’ll take a deeper look into the features of The Belt of Champions Bonus Buy, kicking things off over at the pays section.

The Wild symbol plays a big role in The Belt of Champions Bonus Buy slot, so it’s no surprise to see it feature at the top of the paytable, and matching five of them across a payline will return 7x the total stake value. Next up, it’s the Red Fighter at 5x, followed by the Green and Blue Fighters, who are both worth 3x. The least valuable premium symbols are the Purple and Yellow Backed character symbols, which both weigh in at 2x the stake value. The non-premium symbols featured are the usual A, K, Q, J, and 10, all of which will return 1x per line of five.

Next, let’s investigate the stake possibilities on The Belt of Champions Bonus Buy. The options range from a low of €0.10 and rise to a high of €100.00, and with plenty of bet sizes to choose from between these values; there shouldn’t be any issues for both low, mid-range and high rollers to find a stake they are comfortable with.


The Belt Of Champion Bonus Buy Slot Base Game

The Belt Of Champion Bonus Buy Base Game

We’re fighting our way into the game mechanics now, and we find the action takes place on a simple 5×4 formation across 30 fixed paylines. Wins are achieved in the traditional style, with a minimum of three matching symbols from left to right, commencing on the leftmost reel and awarding a payout per their corresponding value on the paytable.


Wild Symbol

The wild symbol substitutes for all regular symbols in a winning combination and can also contain a multiplier value of either x2, x3, x4, or x5.


Wild Time Feature

The Wild Time feature can be activated randomly at the start of any main game round, and between 5 and 20 wild symbols will be positioned randomly on the grid before the reels stop spinning. When two or more wild symbols land in the same grid position, they will become a multiplier wild, with a value of either x2, x3, x4, or x5, depending on how many have landed in that position. Multiplier values that connect across a win line are summed up rather than multiplied by one another.

The Belt Of Champion Bonus Buy Free Spins Feature
The Belt of Champion Bonus Buy free spins feature

Three or more scatter symbols landing during any single spin will trigger the bonus feature, and 10 free spins shall be awarded. The number of scatters that land will determine the potential number of wild symbols that will be present in the bonus round, as follows:

  • 3 Scatters: 20 to 50 wilds
  • 4 Scatters: 40 to 100 wilds
  • 5 Scatters: 80 to 200 wilds

Hit It Bonus Game

Before the free spins feature commences, the player will be taken to the Hit It Bonus Game screen, where the number of wild symbols present during the feature will be determined. Players have three picks to select from several panels and will uncover three values which will be summed up. The possible values hidden behind each panel are as follows:

  • 3 Scatters: 5, 10, 15, or 25 wilds
  • 4 Scatters: 10, 20, 30, or 50 wilds
  • 5 Scatters: 20, 40, 50, or 100 wilds

The minimum number of wilds that can be won is 20, and the maximum is 200.


Free Spins Feature

After the Hit It Bonus Game is completed, the free spins feature will begin. This feature will always start with 10 free spins regardless of the number of scatter symbols that land during the trigger. During this feature, the number of wilds uncovered during the Hit It bonus game will be displayed at the top of the reels, and all of them will be used at some point during the 10 spins of the feature.

They are used when the Wild Time feature activates, which is more often than in the base game, and a random number of them will be added to the reels. Ideally, the player will be hoping for a low number of Wild Time activations, as this will mean a higher number of wild symbols are transferred to the reels during a single spin, as opposed to an activation on lots of spins, which will result in the number of wilds being more thinly spread. As explained in the Wild Time section, any wild symbols that land within the same grid position will result in a multiplier wild.


Bonus Buy

For those players in the appropriate jurisdictions, there will be a bonus buy option available on The Belt of Champions Bonus Buy. There are three possible selections, which are as follows:

  • 3 Scatters: 20 to 50 wilds, at a cost of 40x total bet and RTP of 95.80%
  • 4 Scatters: 40 to 100 wilds, at a cost of 171x total bet and RTP of 95.78%
  • 5 Scatters: 80 to 200 wilds, at a cost of 730x total bet and RTP of 95.84%

Pros

  • Exciting free spins feature, which you’ll rarely see a poor value payout on.
  • The Wild Time feature adds entertainment value to the base game.
  • The introduction of a bonus buy option is a huge plus.

Cons

  • Maximum win of 3,200x could be higher.
  • This is exactly the same game as the previous version, just with a bonus buy.

The Belt Of Champion Bonus Buy Slot Review Final Thoughts

I’m a big fan of combat sports, so I was pleased to see this title pop up on my review list. Overall, it doesn’t disappoint and is a very fun game packed with plenty of action. The graphics and theme are well presented, and the gameplay is rewarding. I particularly enjoyed that all wilds accumulated must be used in the free spins feature, ensuring that none go to waste and that consistent returns are paid. This is refreshing compared to many modern slot titles, which can take an age to bonus and pay you 1x. There’ll be none of that here. The big potential lies in the top 5 scatter bonus, where you’ll be hoping the large number of wilds are concentrated to as few spins as possible, allowing the multiplier wilds to come into effect. However, the 3,200x maximum win does seem slightly on the low side for me. The first iteration of this game was crying out for a bonus buy option, so here it is, and it definitely improves it, in my view.
