There’s a glossy look to the imagery in Win Escalator. On the reels you’ll see 9 classic fruity symbols. In order of value are cherries, lemons, oranges, grapes, melons, stars, horseshoes and bells. The top payer is the lucky 7 which awards 15 or 40 times your stake if you land 3 or 4 in a line.

The white diamond is the wild. This substitutes for everything apart from the free spins scatter and also pays 40 times your stake coins if you land 4 in combination. Whenever a wild diamond lands, it locks and then drops down the reels 1 position at a time on the following spins until it falls off the bottom of the screen. This is called the Diamond Wilds feature.

Land 3 free spins symbols on the same spin to trigger the Free Spins feature. You can then look forward to 10 free spins. Each time a wild lands during the feature, 1 extra free spin is added to your total. You could also see an arrow appear. This means that the reels will increase in size. These expansions can boost the size of the reels by up to 5 extra rows during the free spins – this is called the Expanding feature.

The theme in Win Escalator might be as old as the proverbial hills. There’s a fresh, modern look to the visuals though and the electronic backing track bounces along nicely enough. The gameplay is straightforward. You can expect to see plenty of dropping wilds which can deliver some decent action. As can the expanding reels in the Free Spins feature.

If you’re enjoy slots with back story and features, then this probably won’t float your boat. Fans of old school fruit machines should find it more to their liking. That said, you can win just over 850 times your stake on each spin or free spin which is pretty decent. I recommend you take a look at other Red Tiger Gaming slots with The Equalizer one of my favourites.
