Rockstar World Tour Hold & Win slot Review

Everyone thinks of rock stars as the ones who collect conquests but some groupies could show them a thing or two about adding notches to the old belt. šŸ›Œ

Pamela des Barres (nee Miller) was coined ā€œrockā€™s premier groupie and sexual museā€ by none other than Dave Navarro. Sheā€™s said to have bedded Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, Mick Jagger, Keith Moon, and Jim Morrison ā€“ to name a few. šŸŽøšŸŽ¤šŸŽ¶

Then thereā€™s Bebe Buell who, together with generously lipped Steven Tyler, created the genetic masterpiece known as Liv. šŸ˜

Describing herself as ā€œa free agentā€ who was never supported financially by any rock stars, Bebe is credited with having taken the scalps of Mick Jagger, (again), Iggy Pop, Rod Stewart, David Bowie, Elvis Costello, and someone else whoā€™s name keeps popping up: Jimmy Page.

Today, weā€™re stage-diving into a world of kick-ass music and groupies in Rockstar World Tour Hold & Win slot from Betsoft Gaming. šŸ¤˜

Gameplay

I was literally at a concert two days ago, so the impression of watching a band play live is still with me. And how clever is it of Betsoft to use the lighting rig as the frame for the 6-reel, 5-row game weā€™ve got here?

Above the reels are some Jackpots (Iā€™ll get into those later on), and of course, thereā€™s rock music blaring as the soundtrack.

One of the high-paying rockers is definitely Slash, but Iā€™m not too sure who the others are modeled on.

Rockstar World Tour Hold & Win slot has 66 paylines, a very high volatility rate, and an RTP of 96.42%. But the best part is that the gameā€™s top payout is enough to make even Axl Rose appear at a gig: $377,069.85! And the max multiplier is 8,379.33x!

The only currency restriction is that you wonā€™t be able to play with the Japanese yen; all other forms of moolah are sweet (child oā€™ mine).

As for the Scatter, thatā€™s an all-access pass and it can appear on any of the reels. Scatters pay when 3, 4, 5, or 6 of them land, and youā€™ll be rewarded with 6x, 16x, 26x, or 66x your bet, respectively. Scatter wins get added to payline wins.

The Wild replaces all symbols that arenā€™t Scatters or Bonus symbols. Wilds will grace every reel with their presence.

Features

HOLD & WIN FEATURE:

Youā€™ll trigger the Hold & Win feature if you score 6 or more Bonus symbols. These are either black vinyl albums ā€“ your basic Bonus symbols ā€“ or purple, gold, or blue vinyls, representing the Minor, Major, and Grand Jackpots.

Triggering Bonus symbols are locked in place and youā€™ll be awarded 3 spins to start with. Any newly landed Bonus symbols will also become sticky and reset the spin counter.

The round ends once you run out of spins or you fill all of the positions with Bonus symbols of any kind.

Youā€™ll be awarded the value of all Bonus symbols, and the Minor Jackpot pays 16x your bet; the Major Jackpot pays 166x your bet; while the Grand Jackpot pays 666x your bet. šŸ¤˜

Multiplier Bonus

Our groupies are the multiplier symbol, which you might see during the Hold & Win feature. They'll randomly choose 2 to 8 black vinyl Bonus symbols and boost their values by 2x to 256x. These boosted Bonus symbols could then transform into Jackpots.

BUY BONUS:

You can pay some money and go straight to the show; no waiting in line!

  • 30x gets you 1 spin in the Hold & Win feature
  • 45x gets you 2 spins in the Hold & Win feature
  • 60x gets you 3 spins in the Hold & Win feature
  • 70x gets you 3 spins + a guaranteed multiplier bonus in the Hold & Win feature

Performance

Swapping browsers didnā€™t unsettle Rockstar World Tour Hold & Win slot. And it played like fleet-fingered Jimmy Page on all of my devices.

Maximum Win

Weā€™re talking Angus Young levels of money here: $377,069.85. Thatā€™s incredible! The max multiplier ainā€™t bad either, at 8,379.33x, and the betting range starts at $0.12 and is capped at $45.

Conclusion

The thing I found most interesting about Rockstar World Tour Hold & Win slot is the option to purchase spins of varying kinds for the Hold & Win feature. Iā€™ve seen it done for Free Spins, of course, but I do believe this variation is a first for me.

I know youā€™re not buying 10 spins, as you would in other games, but 70x to get 3 spins in the feature, along with a guaranteed multiplier bonus sounds like a fair deal.

Mobile players will be throwing devil horns in the air as they play the game one-handed, and it looks real good in portrait mode (donā€™t bother flipping the screen).

Less experienced players will have no problem grasping how the features work (although the volatility rate may put you off), while pro players will be salivating at the potential payout. As such, the game should have broad appeal.
