Rockets Slot Review

I don’t envy the creative teams at game studios. Coming up with the umpteenth iteration of “Book of Yada: What What Edition” must be tough!

I’m in the creative industry, so I know how hard this stuff can be. But let me tell you, when you have to write about the same theme all the time, you can start feeling a little crazy.

And then along comes a sweet little gem like Rockets slot from Belatra Games! I don’t know about you, but I haven’t seen too many fireworks-themed slots!

Sure, there are enough explosives here to give a Vietnam Veteran mind-numbing flashbacks, but who’s counting?

Gameplay

So first impressions: I’d recommend giving this one a skip if you’re sensitive to loud noises – or just slam the mute button; it’s up to you.

The sound effects are integral to the gameplay experience, but after a few spins at full blast, I was ready to hit the bottle.

Rockets slot is a classic 5 reel slot with 30 paylines. It has 3 rows on the main gameboard and one above (which does something quite fun – we’ll get into that later).

The reels are absurdly colorful, almost carnivalesque! So you might need to don some sunglasses for eye protection. However, the background is muted in comparison, which helps balance things out a bit.

Rockets slot has a 96.51% RTP rate and medium-high volatility, which is my favorite. If you set your bet to €90 and land the top 2,000x multiplier, you can score the max win of €180,000 – not bad.

Betting starts at €0.30 and maxes out at €90, so there’s plenty of space to do your thang. And no currency limitations as far as I can tell!

Features

The Wild is represented by a cluster of colorful fireworks, and it’s only active during Free Spins. Meanwhile, the red firework Scatter can only land on the Magic Line above the reels.

MAGIC LINE

The Magic Line is a separate reel at the top of the screen and is responsible for housing the Scatters.

FREE SPINS

Landing 3 or more Scatters triggers 5 Free Spins, which are re-triggerable up to a maximum of 50. During Free Spins, Firecrackers, Scatters, or Empty Symbols can land on the Magic Line.

During this round, different symbols will cause the Wild to land in various formations on the reels. For example, the Crackers symbol means that the Wild will only land stacked and on 2 reels simultaneously.

Performance

I didn’t experience any glitches or buffering issues while playing Rockets slot. After testing it on my mobile, desktop, and a couple of my favorite browsers, I’m pretty happy with how it performed.

Maximum Win

I know that €180,000 doesn’t feel like much to some people, but it’s a hell of a lot for me!

So yeah, not the biggest maximum win, but it’ll do.

Conclusion

Rockets slot is committed to the fireworks theme! I wasn’t kidding when I said that this game could send a Veteran into a PTSD spiral, so approach it with a level of caution if that’s you.

However, this is a pretty decent slot! The maximum win is more than generous for a bum like me, and the Free Spins and Magic Line features are a nice touch.

An explosive playing experience? It depends on how you look at it, I suppose! But I certainly enjoyed myself.
