Ready to really hit it hard?! A daringly made video slot surprisingly succeeds in combining the two parallel universes of online slot machines. A classic 3-reel slot layout serves as a base for triggering a huge package of special features and bonus games. The 6th title in the series of ELK Studios slots inspired by neon lights of 1990s Hit It Hard slot looks awesome with 3x3 layout in the lower half of the screen and a board piled up with special features taking the upper part of the screen. The shiny new game by ELK Studios has a bag full of surprises waiting to be opened to the players brave enough to try out this peculiar cocktail. The jackpot of 2,500x the bet can be a worthy incentive though.
Don’t let the classic slot layout of 3 reels and 3 rows lead you to a wrong conclusion. Hit It Hard is as similar to classic slot machines as new iPhone is to the landline telephones typical for the ’90s. The visual side, on the other hand, excellently illustrates the gaming ventures of those days. The symbols are indeed different 7’s, Bars and Fruits, but with the advanced graphics. Also, if you read about its 5 paylines, you can think Hit It Hard is a boring, slow-paced game. Now, that conclusion would be light years away from the truth. Numerous features will not wait for long before they activate and shine a different light to this amazing game.
An important notice – 100 coins is a default stake and cannot be changed but translated to real money your wagers can go from as low as $0.20 all the way to $100.00 with 12 bet levels available. Beside regular symbols, you will see special ones. Start with Multiplier Wilds – they appear on reel 3 only and multiply the wins they help create. If no winning combination is made, the Wild Respin feature is triggered in which the reel 3 is locked while the other 2 re-spin. Then, the Bonus Symbol (Dice) that shows up on the middle row of reel 3 activates the Bonus Mode in which the Bonus Symbol acts as a 10x multiplier.
The real journey starts with the Roll the Dice! Bonus game. It begins with the roll of the dice which allows the player to move as many fields from the start as the dice says. To keep the dice rolling, the player needs at least one win on either the mini-game on the Bonus Game board or on the reels. The Bonus Game board houses many special treats: multipliers, additional spins, additional moves, reel features as well as 4 mini-games. Lucky Ballz mini-game guarantees a win and thus a new roll of the dice. Another pachinko-style mini-game called Super Ballz also guarantees a win but has an unlimited number of balls whereas Lucky Ballz has 4 of them. Stacked Wilds mini-game awards 3 spins with locked stacked wilds. Wild Spins mini-game awards 10 spins with a random multiplier on reel 3.
Hit It Hard video slot by ELK Studios is a feature-packed game hiding behind the classic slot layout. While 5 paylines can seem dull, the special features make the gameplay dynamic and interesting. The theoretical payout (RTP) in Hit It Hard is 96.3%, while the maximum payout is 2,500x the bet. With the maximum bet of $100, this game can award a lucky player the impressive $250,000.
