If you are expecting xNudge Wilds and Splitter Cells then you’ll be disappointed. NLC have dropped those trademark features for Road Rage. Instead, you get the following mix of Modifier Wilds and Bonus Rounds.
Wild Cars Bring Wilds and Multipliers
Regularly appearing on the reels are the three colored cars, each with their own modifier property.
- Yellow Cars signal Engine Breakdown, increasing the size of all symbols on their reel by +1.
- Red Cars signal a Drive-By, moving from right to left causing any symbol it moves over to increase its multiplier by 1. Then turning Wild when it comes to a stop.
- Green Cars also signal a Drive-By, but this time from left to right. Has the same properties as the Red Car.
Two Traffic Lights brings up a re-spinRed and Green cars can collide to create a Colliding Wild where the multipliers are added together. They also remain sticky when active in a bonus round.
Traffic Light Scatters
These appear at random in the base game. Two triggers a re-spin with a GUARANTEED Wild Car on every reel. Three, four of five triggers one of the bonus rounds below.
Mystery Symbols
These drop in the bonus rounds to reveal a color. If that color matches a Wild Car then it increases that cars multipliers by 1x. If there is no matching color then then an extra re-spin is given.
Rage Buff
This unique feature will play before a bonus round starts. The cars move over the reels to award Free Spins, Sticky Multipliers and Drive-By Multipliers.
Three Bonus Round Modes
You’ll need scatters to unlock the bonus modes as follows:
- 3 Scatters – Morning Rush with 3 rows
- 4 Scatters – H1ghway Jam with 4 rows
- 5 Scatters – C1ty Mayh3m with 5 rows
In short, you are playing on a bigger grid at higher bonus levels, resulting in more paylines and more chances to win. Landing scatters when playing on one bonus level can upgrade you to the next. Meanwhile, Wild Cars also become Sticky in their stop positions and guarantee you an extra spin when you move up the bonus level.
Remember, the Rage Buff feature will play out before the bonuses begin, so you’ll also have extra spins and sticky multipliers in play too.
