Raging Riches (Slotmill) Slot Demo & Review

There are few guarantees in life besides death, taxes, and a steady stream of buffalo-themed slot releases. The Buffalo and the American midwest it roams are often used (probably far too much) as a theme for slots. A quick search of Buffalo on our site should provide more than enough evidence of that. So, who is the latest developer responsible? Slotmill, with the release of its latest slot, Raging Riches. The slot has 2,000 ways to win across 6 reels, a 96.08% RTP, and a 5,533x maximum win.

While the theme is as common as muck, Slotmill has at least tried to ensure its slot stands out in a packed-out crowd by giving it two bonus games instead of one. The first is a free spins bonus game with expanding reels and wild multipliers, and the second is a hold & win game with coin prizes of up to 10x and fixed jackpots worth a maximum of 5,000x the stake. There’s also the Xtra-Bet feature that lets you pay more for a spin in return for double the chance to trigger one of those bonus games.

If you can look past the overused theme (or perhaps you enjoy it), this slot and its bonus games might prove a pleasant surprise. Find out by playing the Raging Riches slot demo below.

If you’re wondering why the buffalo is such a popular theme, it all comes down to the American midwest, particularly Las Vegas, Nevada, where Buffalos and other animals from the region were/are often used as a theme for land-based casino slot games. Online developers have continued the trend over the years, as you’ll see with slots such as Buffalo Trail from Gamebeat, Pragmatic Play’s Buffalo King Megaways, and Buffalo Blox Gigablox from Jelly Entertainment.

Moving on, it’s the stage of the review where I reveal the symbols payouts the Raging Riches slot offers. The Buffalo Wild symbol pays up to 3.5x the stake for a 5-symbol combo, alongside acting as a substitute for all other paying symbols. The Eagle and Bear return 3x for a full line of five, while the Mountain Lion and Wolf reward up to 2.5x. The Ace and King return a maximum of 1.5x, the Queen and Jack top out at 1.4x, and the Ten and Nine deliver up to 1.25x.

You can use the plus and minus controls to increase or decrease your spin bet before hitting the spin button on the Raging Riches slot. You can choose a stake from a minimum of €0.20 and up to a maximum of €100.00 per spin.


Raging Riches Slot Base Game & Modifiers

The action on Raging Riches is played over a 4-5-5-5-4 reel format with 2,000 ways to win. For most symbols, creating winning combinations requires three or more matching symbols to land on consecutive reels from left to right. The exceptions are the Buffalo high-value symbol and the Nine low-value symbols, which both require two or more.


Xtra Bet

To the left of the reels is a switch you can use to activate the Xtra-Bet features. Once activated, you’ll spin for 50% on top of your current spin bet in return for double the chance of triggering one of the bonus games.


Raging Riches Slot Bonus Features

There are two bonus rounds that can be triggered on Raging Riches. These are a free spin bonus and a Hold & Win Feature. Let’s take a more detailed look at what these offer below.


Free Spins Feature

Landing three or more bonus scatter symbols anywhere in view will trigger the free spins bonus. You’re awarded 8, 10, or 12 free spins for 3, 4, or 5 scatters, respectively. Furthermore, if 2, 3, 4, or 5 scatter symbols land during the bonus game, you’re awarded an additional 3, 4, 5, or 6 free spins.

Wild symbols during free spins will hold a 2x or 3x win multiplier that applies to any winning combinations they help create. Furthermore, each time an ‘Up’ symbol appears on reels 2, 3, or 4 during a spin, it will increase the reel it’s on by one additional position up to a maximum of two additional positions. As well as increasing the ways to win, fully expanding a reel will reward 2 additional spins.


Fortune Frenzy Bonus

The second bonus is a Hold & Win-style game that triggers once six or more Coin symbols land on the same spin during the base game. Those coins hold cash prizes as a multiplier of the stake, ranging between 0.5x and 10x. They’re joined by the Mini (20x), Minor (50x), Major (250.00), and Grand (5,000x) jackpot symbols during the feature.

You receive 3 re-spins, which reset back to 3 each time a new coin or jackpot symbol lands. The bonus continues until no more re-spins are left or all positions have been filled with symbols. At the end of the bonus, all the coin and jackpot symbols are collected and paid.


Pros

  • Two bonus games provide a bit of variety.

Cons

  • The base game is dull, especially if you suffer a long run of dead spins.
  • Low max win.

Raging Riches Slot Review

While the theme has been done to death, Raging Riches's gameplay isn't all that bad. The base game lacks excitement, but at least you know there's a chance to activate one of two bonus games. A solid if unspectacular effort from Slotmill is the best way to summarise Raging Riches.
