Summary:
- Pragmatic Play releases Steamin’ Reels slot
- Min/max bet: 0.02/250
- Max payout: 5,000x
Pragmatic Play partner Reel Kingdom has decided to carry players on an exciting journey powered by steam with its new railway-themed online slot, “Steamin’ Reels“.
The steam, which once drove the Industrial Revolution and continues to fuel many aspects of modern life, is the one powering the reels, delivering prizes from train carriages whenever key symbols like the Station Master appear.
The slot displays a traditional 5 reel by 3 grid with 10 paylines and accepts wagers from $0.02 to $250. The new slot features high volatility and an RTP of 96.53%, making it suitable for players who are not afraid to take bigger risks for bigger rewards.
Symbols include low-paying 10-A royal cards and higher-paying icons such as cacti, boots, badges, and caps. A wild symbol substitutes for most others, except for scatters, Station Masters, and Crossing symbols.
The standard 10-A royals represent the low-paying symbols. They award between 5x and 25x the initial bet for a 5 OAK hit.
Cacti, boots, badges, and caps are the high-paying symbols, paying between 50x and 250x the stake for matching five-of-a-kind.
Special Features
Platers who land three, four, or five scatters receive 10, 15, or 20 spins, respectively.
During the free spins round, players see a train with three carriages containing prizes. Golden Tickets or money multipliers ranging from 5x to 500x the bet can appear.
Collecting three Golden Tickets grants extra spins and unlocks higher multipliers, up to x10 on the fourth level. Station Master and Crossing symbols can trigger or enhance payouts during this feature, with the Station Master adding multipliers to prizes.
Two ante bet options increase the excitement: Ante Bet 1 doubles the stake to double the chance of free spins, while Ante Bet 2 guarantees at least four scatters for 500x the stake. There’s also a feature buy option to land 3-5 scatters for 100x the stake.
Steamin’ Reels carries Reel Kingdom’s signature old-school aesthetic, featuring graphics that may feel dated, but the free spins sequence brings the train and prizes to life with parallax scrolling.
The slot’s charm lies in its simplicity, high-paying line wins, and bonus-centric gameplay. It has a maximum win of 5,000x the stake, but it may not appeal to those who prefer modern, visually rich slots.
For fans of Reel Kingdom’s nostalgic style, however, it offers a satisfying mix of tradition and bonus-packed action.
