Snail Race Demo Slot - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Introduction

Is there anything better than a good old day at the races? In this innovative slot from Booming Games, it’s not horses that are racing this time… it’s the snails! Prepare to have your misconceptions of these creatures being “slow” corrected in this fast-paced racing slot that’s sure to get your heart pumping.

The slot is set over a 6x3 reel grid, with Walking Wilds that can appear at any time on the 6th reel and will move one reel to the left with every subsequent spin until they walk off the grid. In addition to the star snail, there are three other cute characters involved in this race, all kitted out with their names on their shells and their safety gear on.

To win in Snail Race, simply line up 3+ matching symbols along one of the 20 fixed paylines, starting on the leftmost reel. The Walking Wilds can substitute for any symbols excluding the Scatter to help win you bigger prizes. Use a Walking Wild featuring a Multiplier in your winning combination and find your prizes multiplied by the value shown on their shell.

If the Walking Wilds and multiplier feature aren’t exciting enough for you, Booming Games have also included a really fun bonus game that takes the Snail Race to the next level. We’ll look at this feature in more detail later in this slot review.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

Snail Race utilises a really fun cartoon-style animation to bring the race to life. The reels are set on massive life-like leaves and at the end of each of the 3 rows you’ll see little houses for the snails to prep in. The characters have been really well designed with sweet faces you can’t help rooting for and the soundtrack is simple and inoffensive with the occasional starting whistle being sounded.

Snail Race RTP & Volatility

Snail Race is a medium variance slot offering an RTP of 95.38%.

How to Play Snail Race

Whenever we’re faced with a new slot, we always like to spend some time playing for free to get the hang of the controls and rules of the game. You can play Snail Race and other Booming Games demo slots right here at Slots Temple and read on to learn the controls of the game.

1. The first thing we always do with a new slot is look for the three lines in the top right-hand corner of the screen, as this is usually where the game info is. Clicking this button will give you a variety of options, from left to right these are: history; full screen; game rules; settings; paytables and paylines; and AutoSpin.

2. Once you’ve got your head around the rules, paytable, and bonus features of Snail Race, click the button beneath the three lines to place your bet. You can scroll through the available wagers here, then click the tick to confirm your choice.

3. When you’re happy with your bet, click the large green and yellow Spin arrow to spin the reels manually.

4. To make adjustments to your gameplay, click on the ‘+’ button next to the Spin for settings such as Turbo Mode, AutoSpin, Max Bet, and sounds.

5. You can keep an eye on your balance and current wager in the black bar running along the very bottom of the screen.

Bet Sizes & Paytable

Snail Race offers a pretty decent betting range, with wagers starting at 0.20 per spin and going up to 100.00. This wide range of betting options should appeal to penny players and high rollers alike.

The best win in Snail Race occurs when you land 5 matching symbols along a payline. You may use one or more Wild symbols as substitutions to help you achieve this. Excluding any Multipliers, the top prizes for each symbol are as follows:

Max: 6,000

Bob: 5,000

Tom: 4,000

A: 2,000

K: 1,500

Q: 1,000

The Wild can also act as a paying symbol when you match 3-5 along a payline starting on the leftmost reel. The top prize you can achieve for 5-of-a-kind is 6,000 (again, excluding any Multipliers).

Bonus Features

Walking Wilds

At any time during the base game, a Wild snail may appear on the 6th reel. He’ll then move one position to the left for every subsequent spin until he walks off the reels.

Walking Wild Multipliers

Not only can the Wild substitute for other symbols in Snail Race (excluding the Scatter), but he may also show up with Multipliers stamped on his shell. Multiplier Wilds behave in the same way as the Walking Wild symbols, however when these are involved in a win any rewards will be multiplied by the value shown.

Snail Race Feature

In addition to the Walking Wilds, Snail Race also features an exciting bonus game that’s triggered by 3+ appearances of the Snail Race symbol in any position. In this feature, you’ll get to watch Max, Bob, and Tom race to the finish line. Depending on the winner, you’ll win x10, x25, or x50 of your stake.

Conclusion

Overall, we found Snail Race to be a really enjoyable slot with some great bonus features and brilliant animations. The design and upbeat soundtrack did a great job of drawing us into the game and there are some really generous rewards up for grabs. We did find the Snail Race Feature didn’t trigger quite as often as we’d like and we didn’t see too many Walking Wild Multipliers, but we still felt well rewarded and enjoyed the game.

If you liked the action of Snail Race, you might want to try NetEnt’s Drive Multiplier Mayhem slot.
