Red Bar Demo Slot - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Red Bar Introduction

On the surface, Red Bar does not look or sound like it would be much fun. However, after a few spins, it is apparent that this game has a few little surprises up its rather mundane sleeves that could keep players coming back for more. 

 
Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack 

Realistic Gaming certainly did not seem to waste much time or budget on designing and producing the graphics for Red Bar. The game is based on a retro slot machine and follows a classic slot theme of the kind that used to be found in seaside amusement arcades. The symbols are all bars in different numbers and colours, so at least any win is easy to spot. However, with only one win line, this was never really going to be a problem. 

The reel is garish and dull at the same time, with greys and reds plus a digital bank that looks like an old-fashioned alarm clock display. The player has the choice to play with the reels filling the screen and expanding only when a feature lands, or playing in expanded mode throughout the session. Played in expanded mode, the theme of a pub fruit machine is further cemented by the red wallpaper and old-fashioned cabinet that houses the reels. 

The sound effects are exactly what you would expect to hear from this game, and the only noise is from the reels dropping. This lack of background music is why players may well jump when the siren-like noise announces that nudges have been awarded. Any players caught napping would be jolted awake by this attack on the senses!

Red Bar RTP and Variance

The RTP on Red Bar is a decidedly average 96% with a medium volatility. Due to the retro, easy-play style of the game, we recommend giving it a few spins in demo mode before investing any actual cash. Other Realistic Gaming demo slots are also available to try.

How to Play Red Bar

1. Choose whether to enable the sound effects and music via the blue speaker button at the bottom of the reels.
2. Choose your stake. You can bet between 0.05 and 5000 per spin. 
3. Decide whether you want to auto play. You can choose between 10, 25, 50, or 100 games and also elect to stop when a win reaches a certain amount.
4. There is no fast play option on Red Bar
5. Enjoy the game!

Red Bar Bonus Features

Nudges - Three nudges are randomly awarded and can be played manually by the player or automatically by pressing the tick button that will appear at the side of the reels. If a win is missed manually, the auto play will automatically rewind to give the best possible combination. Although the display states one, two, or three nudges, it is always three nudges that are awarded.

Hold On Win - After randomly selected wins, it may be possible to hold all three reels for a repeat win. This can happen a maximum of three times in succession.

Repeat Free Spins - Free spins can be randomly awarded after any straight win, which means a win that does not come because of a hold or nudge. Simply press the tick for a repeat of the win spin. This can happen a maximum of twice in succession.

Free Spins All Prizes - These free spins can be randomly awarded after a win involving the black bars. Three free spins are awarded and will give the next highest prize.
