With the Reel Desire slot, Yggdrasil takes you to back to the golden 1970s and 1980s. You will enjoy a night out, at a party taking place on a 5x4 reel set with 1,024 ways to win. The game boasts striking visuals with neon-lit symbols accompanied by a retro synth music score playing in the background. Wild Reels, Multiplier Wilds, respins and two free spins feature will boost your winning chances, helping you to win up to 20,480x the bet.
The reels are set within a glitzy nightclub with loudspeakers pumping on either side. They are home to a female and male character paying high-value prizes and a mix of theme-related icons and playing card suits rendered to look like LP records. As for theme-related symbols, they are depicted as digital watches, trainers, thunderbolt earrings and sunglasses. Special symbols include regular Wild represented by a tape cassette, LP Record Multiplier Wild and Ghetto Blaster Scatter.
Before you start spinning the reels, make sure to pick a stake that suits you best. You can do it by selecting a coin value that can be between $0.01 and $3. Since the stake is configured to 25 coins, your total bet can be anywhere between $0.25 and $75 per spin. Just like other Yggdrasil titles, Reel Desire allows you to activate up to 1,000 automatic spins or let the reels spin automatically until you stop them. You need at least 3 matching symbols landed on consecutive reels left to right to get paid.
On any base game spin, you can trigger the Reel Desire feature at random and benefit from up to 5 reels going Wild. Besides regular Wild that performs its standard duties, the game also features 2x Multiplier Wild. When it hits reels 2, 3 or 4 in the main game, the Double Wilds feature is activated boosting your payouts 2x and awarding a respin where 2x Wilds remains in its position. If you get another Multiplier Wild during the respin, the feature is retriggered.
Land 3 or more Scatters anywhere in view and you will trigger the Free Spins feature where you can choose from two different modes. Also, you can win up to 500x the stake. Both modes grant 10 free spins. Depending on the option you choose, you will benefit from Wilds going sticky or multipliers that increase by 1 on every win. The feature can be retriggered.
Reel Desire looks spectacular and offers exciting gameplay due to the bonus features that enhance your odds throughout the game. However, the biggest wins are hidden within free spins, especially if you opt for the mode awarding multipliers and get lucky to retrigger the feature. Keep in mind that the Yggdrasil 2021 title is highly volatile, so it may take time to trigger free games and land a payout. Its huge winning potential with up to 20,480x the bet up for grabs and a 96% RTP make it worth trying out, though.
