Feel the Beat Slot

Feel the Beat Slot RTP, Details & Wager Limits

The Feel the Beat slot is played on a 5×5 grid but it’s not a typical grid slot as it has 27 fixed paylines. Wins are formed by matching 3 or more symbols on adjacent reels from left to right, beginning from reel 1.

Stakes range from 10p up to £100 per spin, which is very typical of Hacksaw slots. Use the arrows next to the bet value to adjust your total stake. Up to 1,000 autospins are possible to set but only if you’re a player outside the UK. Likewise turbo spins and super turbo spins.

The Feel the Beat RTP is 96.2%, which is above the industry average. But it’s worth noting that UK casinos have the option to list 2 other RTP versions if they choose to – 94.28% and 92.26%. Volatility is in the high range here and rated as 4/5 by the provider. The hit rate is 36%, which is very generous and means that just over a third of all spins on average will result in a winning combination.

The maximum win is 10,000 x your total stake. This is best achieved in one of the 2 Free Spins features as there are numerous free spins and multipliers up for grabs. The max win probability is 1 in 3.5 million.

Theme: spin to the beat

The theme here is music but forget rock and pop; it’s all about dance music with 2 female DJs on either side of the reels as you spin away. What’s great about this slot is that it uses Hacksaw’s trademarked BeatSpins. This means that the whole game is synced to the beat of the music. You can choose your music and dance to the beat of your wins. It’s a fantastic and unique part of the overall gameplay. Land the Free Spins feature and the music choices are more upbeat as you spin away.

The reels are set in front of a neon image of a city and the visuals are brilliant in my opinion. The neon graphics are great and the audio is superb. Well, it’s superb if you like dance music. If not, then this might not be the slot for you.

On the reels, the A-J Royals make up the lower-paying symbols. These are joined by higher-paying patterns and cat and mouse symbols. The pink neon mouse symbol pays the most, awarding 4, 10 or 40 x bet for 3, 4, or 5 in combination.

The game’s Wild is a neon green W, which substitutes for all symbols and pays 40 x your total stake if 5 land in combination on the grid. Here’s a list of the symbols you will come across in the game:

Symbol	Payouts/Info
J	3, 4 or 5 = 0.1, 0.5 or 2 x stake
Q	3, 4 or 5 = 0.1, 0.5 or 2 x stake
K	3, 4 or 5 = 0.1, 0.5 or 2 x stake
A	3, 4 or 5 = 0.1, 0.5 or 2 x stake
Ring Pattern	3, 4 or 5 = 1.5, 3 or 9 x stake
Star Pattern	3, 4 or 5 = 2, 5 or 15 x stake
Circle Pattern	3, 4 or 5 = 2.5, 6 or 18 x stake
Cat	3, 4 or 5 = 3, 7.5 or 30 x stake
Mouse	3, 4 or 5 = 4, 10 or 40 x stake
Wild	Substitutes for all + 5 pays 40 x stake
Scatter	3+ triggers Free Spins feature
Speaker	2+ on different reels will activate speaker mechanic
X	Reveals a global multiplier value up to 200x

Feel the Beat Mobile

Released on the 25th of January 2024, the Feel the Beat mobile slot is compatible with desktop, tablet and mobile devices. Hacksaw Gaming is a mobile-first provider, thus they focus on playing on smartphones. This includes mobiles using iOS and Android technology. I really like how it plays on smaller screens, especially in portrait mode.

Feel the Beat Bonus Features

There are 5 bonus features to enjoy in the Feel the Beat slot game. From 2 Free Spins features, a buy bonus option and multipliers up to 200x, there’s a lot going on. Let’s take you through all of the features one by one, starting with the Speaker symbols.

Speaker Symbols

When 2 or more Speaker symbols land on different reels, all winning paylines that connect them will be identified and the Speaker Mechanic will activate. What happens next is that all symbols within the winning paylines will be flipped and replaced with the same paying symbol.

It’s important to remember that the Speaker Mechanic will only activate if there are 2 or more Speaker symbols on different reels. If 2 land on the same reel, they will fill the vertical gap between them with Speaker symbols to create more winning paylines.

In the base game, the Speaker Mechanic can only replace symbols with paying symbols. If a Scatter symbol is replaced by another during the Speaker Mechanic, it will still count towards potentially triggering a bonus feature.

X Symbols

If there is a win on the grid, the X symbol is activated. It will reveal a Global multiplier value that will be displayed outside the grid. The multiplier value is applied to your total win for that spin. If the X symbol is part of a payline that is replaced by the Speaker Mechanic, the X symbol will be replaced after revealing its multiplier value.

Pump Up the Jam! Bonus feature

Land 3 Scatters in the base game to trigger this bonus feature. You will start with 10 free spins. It plays in the same way as the base game but the Speaker Mechanic also has a chance to replace symbols with Wilds.

Get Your Booty On the Floor! Bonus feature

Landing 4 Scatters in the base game will trigger this enhanced Free Spins feature. You will start with 10 free spins and the value of the Global multiplier has a chance to increase over time. Each time the X symbol lands on the reels, its multiplier value is added to the Global multiplier, which is activated when a winning combination lands.

Like the other Free Spins feature, the Speaker Mechanic also has a chance to replace symbols with Wilds.

Bonus Buy feature

Non-UK players have the chance to buy the following features in the game:

Feel the Beat Slot

With the help of BeatSpins, Hacksaw’s Feel the Beat slot looks and sounds fantastic. Add in the above-average RTP rate, 10,000 x max wins, multipliers up to 200x plus 2 great bonus features, you’ve got a really good slot on your hands.

Pros

• Superb visuals and audio
• Unlimited free spins
• Multipliers up to 200x

Cons

• Theme won't suit everyone

If you like EDM, you’re going to love the Feel the Beat slot. The music is fantastic and you can even select which songs to listen to as you spin away. Hacksaw’s unique BeatSpins functionality really does take this slot to the next level. Not in terms of gameplay as the features and the way everything works are fairly easy to understand. It’s the visuals and the audio that get the plaudits here, and rightly so.

While landing 3 Scatters will trigger a Free Spins feature, landing 4 Scatters in the base game is what you want to be aiming for as the win potential is higher. The 36% hit rate is generous and very noticeable as I managed to land winners consistently as I was testing.

Overall, while the max win potential could be higher, it’s a very typical figure that you’ll see in many slots from this provider. I can’t say too much in terms of negatives because there aren’t really any. You need to like EDM to enjoy it in my opinion. Apart from that, it’s a great slot.
