About This Slot
For many Relax Gaming were one of the stand-out game studios of 2020, and alongside their competitors, Nolimit City, are taking high variance fun to new places as part of new generation of young guns that follow in the wake of Big Time Gaming’s trailblazing style of recent years.
With games like Money Train 2, Relax have combined top-quality graphics and artwork with super-powered gameplay and free spins rounds to deliver epic slots action. And now, with Multiplier Odyssey it looks like they’ve done it again – not only is this an excellent product, it manages to achieve that rare thing – an original take on a classic feature with a clever twist on the progressive multiplier delivered via a gaggle of spaceships and some frenzied spinning!
And this all happens against the backdrop of deep space skyline with aliens and hero space adventurers – in short, a mix of old skool video game and state of the art modern video slot!Â
RTP, Variance and Top Payout
So, to begin with the variance, and we all know that Relax have produced some real top-quality highly volatile slots. Multiplier Odyssey once again turns the dial up to the max. Expect an uneven win distribution and periods of dry spins because all the best stuff has been loaded up into the free spins round. Meanwhile, the RTP is slightly above average at 96.5%, and your top payout to aim for is 50,000x.
Remember though that this is a maximum – most of us won’t get anywhere near that size prize at any time. Usually big wins will be in the 5,000x + range, which is still good, so be realistic about your expectations.
Symbols and PaytableÂ
The reels are set in the cockpit inside of a spacecraft. The low value symbols on the reels come as the four card suits. Meanwhile, premium icons are shown as the four warrior icons – one male, one female, one alien and one bearded man.
The top paying regular symbol here is the bearded one, which can get you 50x for five of a kind. Look out as well for The Wild which gives you 100x bet for the maximum combination as well as subbing for all other icons to form winlines.
And finally, to trigger the big free spins you will need to land three of more of the Scatters.
Gameplay and Features
There are two additional features here. You can collect instant wins with a little help from the Coin Collector feature in the base game. But the central attraction is the Free Spins feature where video game style ‘lives’ determine how long the round lasts, and Super-Multipliers blast the gameplay into new realms entirely!
Coin Collector Feature
Coin symbols will appear from time to time on all reels except the fifth.
The last reel is reserved for the Coin Collector icon. If you land the Coin Collector on reel 5, all the coins that appear on the other four reels are collected, and an instant win payout occurs.
If the coin collector that lands on the fifth reel has a 3x attached to it, then your instant wins are trebled.
Free Spins Feature
Three or more Spaceship Scatters on the reels will trigger the Free Spins feature.
In a clever twist on normal free spins gameplay, depending on the number of Spaceships landed, you will get 7, 8, or 9 lives. Then, for any non-winning spin one life is removed.
When the feature begins you start with unlimited spins that keep going until you get a winning one.
Above the reels you will see a set of Spaceship Multipliers. Ten of these are available instantly and one is locked. Every winning spin will activate one of the ten unlocked multipliers. If you manage to use all 10 of them during the free spins then the 11thmultiplier will become unlocked too. This one is also known as the Super Multiplier and will be applied on the following winning spin.
And …
There are also four modifiers in this round, triggered by special symbols – a target, a +1, a spaceship and group of spaceships. Each time you land one of them, the feature symbols will remove the lowest multiplier, boost a random multiplier by 1x, increase the lifeline by 1, or increase all available multipliers by 1x.
Our Verdict
Multiplier Odyssey is another fantastic high variance super slot from Relax Gaming. Aside from its super-cool video-gamer style artwork what makes this special is the free spins round where Relax have found a simple but clever new way to operate a classic feature. All the best stuff will happen if you can just keep unlocking those multipliers and boosting your wins further and higher. This a game high risk slots fans will love for and keep playing for years to come. A great start to 2020 from one of our favourite slots developers of the moment.
