Retro Tapes Slot Overview

Retro Tapes is a new casino slot from Push Gaming where we get to meet a bunch of smiling cassettes in a colorful gaming adventure. Inspired by their previous hits Jammin' Jars and Jammin' Jars 2, this game was created with the same energy and liveliness which permeates its design. Within this game, players get the chance to take advantage of their new Cluster Links mechanic, which gives players a new way to experience wins. It is truly a game where players can take part in a real multiplier fiesta, where winnings of up to 10000X the bet can be scooped up during the stay.

Cassettes played a major role in many people's lives, capturing a few but sufficient songs for the listener to enjoy. The ability to create personalized mixtapes was a great charm of these cassettes and although we now have many other ways to listen to music today, these modern alternatives don't give off the same vibe at all. It's a festive theme that's been created, so let's find out what stats the game has.

Retro Tapes is a video slot from Push Gaming that features 9 reels and 6 rows. A win is created when you land 5 or more of the same symbol type in a cluster. You can choose between making a Min.bet of 0.10 and a Max.bet of 100. The game has been created with several RTPs, where it is an RTP of 96.47% by default, but game operators can also choose from any of the lower RTPs of either 95.47%, 94.46%, 90.42% or 88.40%. Retro Tapes has a high volatility, where you can win up to 10000X the bet.

Within this vibrant gaming adventure among smiling cassettes, we have a couple of great features to help us in our quest for the bigger wins. The features are Wild Tape Symbols, Magnet, Top Charts Bonus, Cluster Link and Bonus Buy.

Retro Tapes Slot Features

What is the max win in the slot Retro Tapes?

You can win up to 10000X the bet.

What features are available in the slot Retro Tapes?

The features are Wild Tape Symbols, Wild Multiplier Symbols, Instant Prize Symbols, Magnet, Top Charts Bonus and Bonus Buy.

Wild Tape Symbols

This symbol helps to enable more winning combinations by substituting for other symbols, except for the multiplier wilds and magnets. When this symbol lands, it has a multiplier of 1X and each time it is included in a win, its multiplier increases by 1X. When you no longer create a cluster win, this symbol will disappear.

Wild Multiplier Symbols

You can land this symbol within both the base game and the top charts feature, where it will distribute its displayed multiplier to all wild tapes found on the reels. Once it has awarded the multiplier, it will turn into an instant prize symbol.

Instant Prize Symbols

During your spins you can land instant prize symbols and you need to land 5 or more of these in a cluster to receive their values. They can land with multipliers of either 1X, 2X, 5X, 10X, 25X, 50X, 100X, 250X, 500X or 1000X.

Magnet

When you land this symbol, it will randomly select a symbol type and then it will attract them around its position. Depending on whether it attracts paying symbols or instant prize symbols, this magnet will turn into either paying symbols or instant prize symbols respectively. It will only attract instant prize symbols if there are 4 or more on the reels, this to ensure a win if it attracts these symbols.

Top Charts Bonus

If you land 3 or more wild tape symbols on the reels at the same time, the Top Charts Bonus feature will be activated. The wild tape symbols as well as the instant prize symbols that you had at the time of the activation, will stay in their positions and then you will be moved to a new position. Depending on whether you landed 3, 4, 5 or 6 wild tape symbols, you will receive 6, 8, 10 or 12 free spins respectively. You will then spin the reels, whereby new symbols can land on the empty positions and each time a new symbol lands, it stays on its position during the remaining spins.

You can then land wild tape, wild multiplier, instant prize, magnet, extra spin and blank tape symbols. If you land an extra spin symbol, it will give you 1 or 2 extra free spins, where it then will turn into an instant prize symbol. The only symbol that does not stick when it lands is the blank tape and once you have used all the free spins, the total value of the instant prizes will be calculated and paid out.

Bonus Buy

If you want to take part in the bonus game right away, you can use the bonus buy feature. You can then choose between these two different options:

100X = You can land up to 6 wild tape symbols which then activate the bonus game.
400X = You can land up to 6 wild tape symbols + a guaranteed random wild multiplier symbol which then activates the bonus game.

Retro Tapes Slot Conclusion

It's certainly a colorful gaming experience here, with the smiling retro cassettes being very reminiscent of the charming Jammin' Jars we've seen before. The game has a big retro feel attached to it, with the pulsating tunes that play during the spins helping to put you in the mood very quickly. It's a big reel setup that we're playing on, where 5 or more of the same symbol type in a cluster generates a win and then the cascading feature is activated. Then the winning symbols will disappear from the reels and new symbols will fall down to enable further wins. This can many times result in a spin being very long lasting and generating big wins. The wild tapes are the game's wild symbols, where they will increase their multiplier by 1X each time they are included in a win, and they will also be able to receive multiplier boosts from the multiplier symbols that may land.

The magnet feature is an ingenious creation, where it will attract a random symbol type and create a cluster win. What makes it extra special is that it can attract instant prize symbols and even turn itself into one, which can yield big winning bonanzas. Push Gaming does an exceptional job of keeping the excitement alive within the base game, but once you activate the bonus game, the real gaming adventure begins. You can then be greeted with up to 12 free spins from the start, where the reels can be filled with a variety of special symbols that are the perfect recipe for bigger wins. The game has been created with several different RTPs, but assuming it is the higher 96.47% that is used, it is within a very good size. The potential maximum win of 10000X is also very good, with an average payout of 1 in 1,248,439 spins being made. That may sound a lot but compared to the majority of game providers out there this is within a very generous number of spins given the large potential maximum win. There is also 1 in 226,372 spins that one receives an instant huge win of 1000X.

It's not a slot that replaces but instead qualifies alongside the previous Jammin' Jars slots, as much is the same here but where small, exciting features have been applied. Despite the wide variety of features, you quickly grasp the game's layout and structure, where you get to enjoy groovy spins along with the funky tunes and tapes.

Retro Tapes is a slot where Jammin' Jars have been replaced by groovy cassettes, which like a proper mixtape who is packed with many lovable elements, can result in many delightful moments.
