Chip Spin Slot Review

Chip Spin Slot RTP, Details & Wager Limits

The Chip Spin slot is played on a 5×5 grid. To create a winning combination, land 3, 4 or 5 matching symbols or wilds on adjoining reels, starting from reel 1. There are 259 ways to win for form a winner using this mechanic.

Stake sizes range from between 10p and £40 per spin. Use the + and – buttons next to the bet box to adjust your bet size. Paytable awards are shown in cash and relate to your current bet size. It’s all nice and straightforward to follow.

The Coin Win RTP is 96.41% which is slightly better than average. The hit frequency rate is 19.15% so on average, you’ll land a winner on around every fifth spin on average. The maximum win here is 25,000 x your total stake. Tread carefully though as the volatility is extremely high. On a scale of 1 to 5, the volatility is the maximum 5.

Theme – Audio & Design Features – a lavish recreation of Sin City

Like most games in the Relax Gaming catalogue, the design in the Chip Spin slot is terrific. The game is set in Las Vegas so it has a casino theme. With the famous Welcome to Las Vegas to the side and a host of Sin City attractions behind, the visuals here are super sharp and easy on the eye.

There’s a jazzy soundtrack playing in the background which gives the game a rather classy feel. It all comes together very nicely.

The reels here are made up of lower value A to J royals, 3 medium value gems, and 4 higher paying character symbols. The highest paying symbol is the gambler chomping on a fat cigar. Land 5 of him on adjoining reels for an award of 6 x your total stake. There are also chip symbols which can trigger the Bonus Game feature and fruit machine scatters which can activate the free spins.

Chip Spin has been fully optimised for play on all devices including desktops, tablets and mobiles. You’ll find the same combination of rich sound and visuals and volatile gameplay no matter what sort of device you’re using.

Chip Spin Bonus Features

Chip Spin comes with a pair of very familiar features. With a total of 3 bonus features, you’ll find free spins and a streak respin bonus here. They come with some very nifty embellishments which can liven up what could have been a rather vanilla bonus offering. I’ll start by looking at the free spins.

Free Spins feature

Landing 3 fruit machine bonus symbols anywhere on the reels on the same spin triggers the Free Spins feature. Your reward is 8 free spins with 2 extra free spins added for each extra bonus symbol that hits on the triggering spin. During the free spins, the casino chips can each deliver a power up whenever they land:

• Green Chip: this adds an extra free spin to your total when it appears.
• Purple Chip: this increases a win multiplier by 1x.
• Black Chip: this position this chip lands on is converted into a sticky wild which locks in place for any free spins you have left. The black chip can land anywhere apart from reel 1.

Bonus Game feature

The game’s Bonus Game feature triggers by landing 5 or more casino chip symbols anywhere on the game grid on the same spin. The triggering chips are held and a respin is awarded. Just like in the free spins, the 3 different coloured chips come with a special extra attached:

• Green Chip: this awards the cash value shown.
• Purple Chip (The Sniper): this doubles the value of between 1 and 3 chips.
• Black Chip (The Collector): this collects the value of the other chips on display.

If you manage to fill an entire reel with green chips, all their values are combined into a single chip symbol. The other symbols are removed, leaving more space for new chips to land.

You’ll start the round with 1 life. You’ll retain that life as long as a chip symbol lands. The dice with heart symbol adds an extra life to your tally. The round continues until you’ve used up your lives. The values attached to the chips are then added together to give you a final prize.

Buy feature

In some countries, there’s a Buy feature. This allows you to buy your way into the 2 bonus features described above. Not available in the UK, here’s how much it costs:

• Free Spins feature: 90 x stake (RTP increases to 96.74%)
• Bonus Game feature: 70 x stake (RTP increases to 96.53%)

Chip Spin Review Summary – combination of Dinopolis and Money Train 2 

I rather liked the Chip Spin slot. For starters, the design is terrific, combining super smooth animations with rich, detailed imagery and a catch backing track. Graphically, it reminds me of Push Gaming’s Dinopolis as it’s set in Las Vegas.

The gameplay stacks up nicely too. Both the main bonus features have extras attached which spice up what could have been a rather ordinary collection of extras. The Bonus Game feature is similar to the Money Cart Bonus feature is Money Train 2 (by Relax Gaming) where you get respins and prizes alongside modifiers.

With 25,000 x stake max wins, the volatility here is extremely high so be warned. If you like slots that deliver high risk action, Chip Spin is certainly one to consider.
