Don't Hit PLZ Slot Review

Don’t Hit PLZ Slot Overview

Don’t Hit PLZ is a casino slot from Max Win Gaming that continues with the provider’s Deadspins mechanic. Spoiler alert: it’s the most interesting one yet. 

Before saying anything else, let’s address the elephant in the room. If you’re a somewhat experienced slot player, you’ll probably think you’ve stumbled upon a Hacksaw game. The graphics and layout of the game are very similar to what we usually see in Hacksaw slots, and the more you play the game, the more similarities you’ll see. Some will probably consider this foul play, but it’s quite common to “copy” other providers’ successful products, and the game itself is very interesting. Thus, we go into this review intrigued on what will unfold. 

Don’t Hit PLZ is a video slot from Max Win Gaming with a setup of 5 reels, 5 rows, and 3125 payways. Players can choose between making a Min.bet of 0.10 and a Max.bet of 2000, but in the end, the max bet is up to the operator, so it may be quite a bit lower. The game has a default RTP of 96%, but there are versions with lower than that. Lastly, Don’t Hit PLZ is played at high volatility and can net you a max win of 25000x the bet. 

If you wonder what the core mechanic of the game is, the clue is in the title. The features of Don’t Hit PLZ are Deadspins Progress Bar, Underground Free Spins, Junkyard Bonus, and Feature Buy. 

Don’t Hit PLZ Slot Information

As mentioned, a Hacksaw-like grid is the arena for this title. Not only that, but the background also looks like a painting or a canvas, which is often another sign of a slot being produced by Hacksaw. But considering Hacksaw’s success in the past couple of years, it’s no surprise that other providers are inspired by them.

Don’t Hit PLZ can be played on all common mobile devices and desktops. A winning combination is created by landing 3 or more matching symbols on consecutive reels, starting from the leftmost reel.

The lower-paying symbols consist of matches, spray bottles, skateboards, masks (?), bottles, and hand grenade brains. A winning combination of 5 with one of these pays 0.3x the bet. The higher-paying symbols include four different characters. Five-of-a-kind with these pays 0.8x-2x the bet, with the highest-paying being a guy with green hair and mustache.

What is the max win in the slot Don’t Hit PLZ?

What features are available in the slot Don’t Hit PLZ?

The features of Don’t Hit PLZ are Deadspins Progress Bar, Underground Free Spins, Junkyard Bonus, and Feature Buy. 

Deadspins Progress Bar

In the top, you can see the Deadspins Progress Bar, which is the game’s core mechanic. Each time you get a deadspin (no winning combination), you progress one step on the top bar. The first step is a 3x multiplier, second step is a 6x multiplier, and the last step triggers the Underground Free Spins feature. The multipliers applies to the next winning combination, but when that occurs, the progress resets. 

Underground Free Spins 

If you reach the final step of the Deadspins Progress Bar, the Underground Free Spins feature is triggered. You are awarded 10 Free Spins, on which a new Deadspins Progress Bar is active. This time, there are 4 steps: 6x, 13x, 25x, and Junkyard Bonus. Each time you reach a new level, you are awarded two extra spins. If a winning combination occurs, your progress resets to the last checkpoint (last multiplier). If you reach the last step, the Junkyard Bonus is triggered. 

Junkyard Bonus

The Junkyard Bonus is triggered by reaching the last step in the Underground Free Spins. A board appears above every reel, with a random value of 200x, 500x, 1000x, 2000x, or 5000x. You start with 3 Re-spins, which reset every time you land a symbol. When you get 3 deadspins in a row, all of the remaining values are added up and payed out (1000x is 1000 times your bet size). However, the following symbols can land:

Minus Symbol: Reveals a minus value between -1000 and -20. This decreases the value of the board on the reel it lands on.

RIP Symbol: Deactivates the reel it lands in and decreases the value of the board on that reel to 0.

Reset Symbol: Resets the board of the reel it lands on back to its starting value.

Freeze Symbol: Deactivates the reel it lands in, locking the current value of the board on that reel, thus guaranteeing that prize to be won.

Feature Buy

If you want to jump straight into action, you have the following feature buy options:

100x = Awards the Underground Free Spins.
500x = Awards the Junkyard Bonus.

Don’t Hit PLZ Slot Conclusion

“Please hit now!” is a sentence that has been said countless times by our streamers over at Casinodaddy, and probably by many of you. Because that’s what we’re used to in slots, building that multiplier or landing those wild reels, then praying for a big hit. Very often, that big hit doesn’t occur. So you sit there, mumbling words that should never reach a human ear, saying to yourself: “if only there was a slot where deadspins were positive”. Well, your dreamiest of dreams have come to life. A slot where you can use your deadspin skills and where you will shout out “Don’t hit PLZ!”. Oh how wonderful.

Jokes aside, this really is a fun concept. It’s not the first time we see it in action, but the way it’s used in the Junkyard Bonus is phenomenal, and feels like the perfect form. We remember that a viewer once told us that a fun slot concept would be that you start with a max win, and then reduce the win. A slot in reverse, one could say, and very similar to what is actually getting released now. Perhaps Max Win Gaming had spies in our chat, or this is just a natural development. Whatever the events were to result in this, we’re happy that it happened, as it truly is a unique experience. Therefore, we won’t spend any time complaining on the unoriginal visuals. 

Don’t Hit PLZ by Max Win Gaming offers a very interesting slot experience where you get to use your skills in deadspins.
