Play Nolimit City’s New Slot Das xBoot

In a previous post, we looked at the new Mental slot by Nolimit City. For this post, we’ll be focusing on the provider’s newest slot game: Das xBoot.

It’s not quite as feature-heavy as Mental, but it still has lots going for it. Carry on reading to learn more about this exciting new addition to LuckyStar Casino’s slot collection.

Introducing Das xBoot

This online slot game is actually based on a film: Das Boot (The Boat in English). This West German film was released in 1981 and follows a submarine crew during World War II.

Das xBoot slot is very well themed and a lot of work has clearly gone into creating it. Its visuals, animations and sound effects come together to recreate the tension and atmosphere of the film.

It’s an immersive casino game that ticks plenty of boxes and is impressive to look at. The soundtrack is suspenseful and the graphics have a dark comic book style of design.

The volatility is high, so the slot can pay out large sums of money, but only occasionally. The RTP is 96.03%.

When you play Das xBoot, there are multiple bet sizes you can choose from. The lowest of these is 0.10 and the highest is 100.00.

The slot uses an irregular grid that’s 2-3-4-4-3-2 in size. The all-ways-win system is in effect. This gives the slot 576 ways to win. However, this number can increase by quite a lot thanks to one of the special features. A metre above the second reel tells you exactly how many ways to win there are on each spin.

Das xBoot’s Standard Symbols and Top Payout

The slot has 10 standard symbols in total. Five of these are the playing card icons A, K, Q, J and 10. The remaining five are an assortment of characters. These include a chef, a radio worker, an engineer, a periscope operator and, last but not least, the captain.

The top payouts for each symbol (for one on each reel) are listed below:

• 10: 1.4x
• J: 2x
• Q: 2x
• K: 2.8x
• A: 2.8x
• Chef: 3.2x
• Radio worker: 4x
• Engineer: 4.8x
• Periscope operator: 10x
• Captain: 20x

The payouts listed above are what your total bet is multiplied by if you win with six instances of the same symbol. For example, if you win with six captains, you’re paid 20x your bet. The captain is the most rewarding of the slot’s standard symbols.

Das xBoot’s Special Symbols and Wilds

Let’s now have a look at the slot’s special symbols. Here’s a brief summary of what they are:

• xNudge wild (gold medal)
• xWays symbol (silver medal)
• xBomb wild (mine)
• Periscope wild
• Torpedo wild
• Radar scatter

First, we’ll look at the xNudge wild. This appears on reels 3 and 4, and is stacked 4 positions high. If it lands partially, it nudges to fill the reel it’s on. Every time it nudges, its base multiplier of x1 grows by x1.

Then there’s xWays symbol. This can appear on reels 2-5 only. Whenever one lands, it reveals up to three instances of the same standard symbol. This increases the number of ways to win for the current spin. If there’s more than one xWays symbol, all symbols that are revealed will match.

As for the xBomb wild, whenever this lands all non-winning symbols explode. The slot’s multiplier increases by x1. Remaining symbols fall down and new ones fill in empty spaces. This can cause new wins to be formed; the multiplier is applied to any payouts you earn. If you win, another symbol collapse takes place with the multiplier increasing. This keeps happening until no new wins are produced.

Finally, there’s the periscope and torpedo wilds. Like the other wilds, they substitute for all standard symbols to help you win. They don’t, however, offer any payouts of they own, and only appear during free spins rounds.

We haven’t forgotten about the scatter. That’s linked with the slot’s bonus rounds. We’ll be covering them in the next section.

Das xBoot’s Bonus Rounds

The slot has two bonus rounds and a special feature. These are:

• Silent Hunter free spins round
• Torpedo Launch
• Wolf Pack free spins round

The Silent Hunter feature gets triggered whenever three radar scatters appear anywhere on reels 2-5. You receive eight free spins. While using these, reel 3 is extra large: eight positions high. Every radar scatter that appears gives you two extra free spins.

If a periscope wild appears on reel 3 and you win with it, the Torpedo Launch feature comes into play. You’ll see an animation where a torpedo is launched. If it misses the enemy target, nothing happens. If it hits, the periscope wild grows to reach the top of the reel. It also nudges down to fill the entire reel. The round’s multiplier increases by x1 for every nudge; it remains in effect for the whole round and never decreases.

To trigger the Wolf Pack free spins round, four radar scatters have to appear. You receive eight free spins. While these are in play, you’ll see a long silver torpedo beneath reels 2-5. It’s split into four parts, one for each reel. Torpedo wilds can appear on these reels.

Whenever a torpedo wild lands, it drops a metallic xWays symbol down onto the torpedo. It starts at x2 and increases by x1 every time a new xWays symbol is added. Each part can have a maximum value of x9.

When xWays symbols have been added to all four parts, the torpedo is launched. The round’s multiplier is then increased by x1. On reels 2 and 5, the collected xWays symbols are added to the reels and transform into the same standard symbol. On reels 3 and 4, the same happens but you get wilds instead.
