Beat the House - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

There are some great-looking EDM themed slots around, but High 5’s Beat the House takes it to the next level.

With a trance soundtrack that builds to the drop as you land more special symbols and locked wilds, Beat The House is high on fist-pumping action.

With nine paytable symbols, including five royals, laid out on the 5x4 grid with its 20 paylines, this slot seems pretty standard; however, it is the special symbols such as the glitterball wild that subs for all other symbols except the scatter and bonus that you are on the lookout for.

High 5 slots has included some brilliant features that are fully integrated with the theme. You will need to land beatboxes and control pads symbols to trigger locked wilds, free spins, and a four-level pick me bonus.

If you like slots with multipliers, there is a 2x multiplier to double your wins.

If this sounds complex, you can get to know the game with a few demo mode spins. This truly mesmerising game can be played on your Apple and Android mobile and tablet in addition to laptop and desktop.

Theme, graphics & soundtrack

EDM grew out of a mixture of disco and Jamaican sound system culture and is now one of the dominant music genres worldwide.

Driven by club and rave culture, with superstar DJs such as Calvin Harris and David Guetta selling millions of records, EDM is packed with epic beats and breaks. The soundtrack here captures this feeling as it builds to the drop.

High 5 has cleverly put together the symbols of a classic Vegas fruitie with a techno look and feel, so we find lemons and cherries alongside glitterballs and control pads.

With clean graphics that put on quite a light show alongside a slick design and a great soundtrack, it is no wonder the crowd is going wild!

RTP & volatility

Overall review: our verdict

There are plenty of neon- and EDM-themed slots out there, but none that quite deliver like Beat the House.

What is truly compelling about this slot is the way the gameplay, features and overall design integrate into one big sound and light show to truly mesmerising effect. Let’s get the party started!

We would also recommend a few spins of the Jammin Jars free play slot and a crack at the huge max win of 20,000x your stake.
