Theme – an ultimate house party where nothing is off-limits

With a party theme, the Walk of Shame slot sees you waking up at 1pm with your throat on fire after missing 8 calls from your boss. With glass shards in your hair and a trashed car that is spray painted pink, this tongue in cheek game is all about that morning after the night before. It will instantly make you think of The Hangover films.

The premise is that you join the insanely opulent Mr. E and his gang of eccentric guests on the ultimate house party where nothing is off-limits. Ultimate leading to the infamous walk of shame which is a situation where someone must walk past strangers or peers alone for an embarrassing reason.

Set in a luxury apartment overlooking what appears to be Manhattan, New York, it feels like a sequel to the Rock Bottom slot visually. Behind the reels, there seems to be a display unit with blow-up sheep, Gonzo and Gonzita soft toys, cowboy hats, daggers, guns and dragons with a Daily Tip Pot bucket. Odd I know but you can see influence of parent company NetEnt. The soundtrack is a cool, dance tune which adds to the chaos it’s trying to create.

On the reels, you will see 5 empty drinks which include beer as well as mojito, margarita, blue lagoon and old fashioned cocktails. The higher value symbols include a tiger guy, bunny guy, drag queen and Jonas (who is 1 of Nolimit City’s co-founders and sports a NLC t-shirt). Jonas is the best paying symbol awarding 0.75, 2.5 or 5 x your total bet for 3, 4 or 5 in combination.

No standard wild symbol appears. However, high value character symbols that cover an entire reel will transform into a Loaded Wild. This can occur on reels 2 through 5. Other symbols include the Invitation and Mr E scatters which are key to triggering bonus features.

You will also see an xSplit symbol which is created when a Mr E scatter symbol appears in the base game. The xSplit symbol either splits the row or the reel for more ways to win.

Walk of Shame Review Summary – a unique + fun party

With the Walk of Shame slot being the first release of 2023, Nolimit City has taken a gentler approach to proceedings compared to 2021 and 2022. San Quentin (2021) and Tombstone RIP (2022) offer 150,000 and 300,000 x bet max wins respectively.

With references to Gonzo’s Quest and Gonzita’s Quest in the imagery, it feels like Walk of Shame is based on employees at Nolimit City. The fact that the highest paying symbol is Jonas (a co-founder) who sports a NLC t-shirt and an elephant thong certifies that this game is an inside joke of some sort. It feels like it was a fancy dress party at Nolimit City that got out of hand and has earned legendary status.

In terms of the gameplay, the Walk of Shame slot is quite simple for a Nolimit City production. Focusing on stacked character symbols, these bring Loaded Wilds with 4x multipliers into play which shift on your next spin. They can randomly ‘walk’ in the Walk of Shame feature but it’s important to note that all Loaded Wilds will disappear from the reels once one of them has reached reel 2.

The Walk of Shame slot then offers you 2 free spins features. Loaded Wilds increase the win multiplier in both but the All Nighter feature comes with a sticky Mr E Scatter that acts as an xSplit symbol to give you more ways to win. Combine this will Loaded Wilds and you can land decent payouts.

With 9,822 x bet max wins per spin/free spin, the max win will be won once every 50,000 spins in the One More feature and once in 1,150 spins in the All Nighter feature. Walk of Shame offers much lower win potential that most Nolimit City slots. Coupled with the medium volatility, they are obviously trying to mix things up. 9,822 x bet is still a pretty good payout compared to most online slots though.

In summary, Walk of Shame is a tongue in cheek release which is personal to the team at Nolimit City. With a fun and unique theme, it is 1 of their simpler slots in terms of mechanics and bonus features. Worth playing though, hopefully it sets the tone for another year of whacky and unique slots by the market leader.
