Devil's Crossroad Slot Review

Devil’s Crossroad Slot Overview

Devil’s Crossroad is a casino slot from NoLimit City in which you make a deal with the devil and are reunited with a mechanic that we’ve only seen in a NoLimit super bonus before.

“The everlasting thirst for fame and fortune runs deep through the veins of some - and they’ll be damned if they had it any other way. Redemption will only get you so far - here, the devil deals the cards”. That’s how NoLimit throws you into this story, preparing you for what is a thrilling theme with unique gameplay. Interesting to note is that this will be the 4th NoLimit release in a row with a relatively low max win. It’s still at a strong 13180x, so not low if you compare it with the industry as a whole, but still a shift in pace from the provider. But enough about that, let’s take a look at Devil’s Crossroad!

Devil’s Crossroad is a video slot from NoLimit City with a 3-3-3-3-3 reel and row setup but features the crosslink mechanic, which puts a twist on it. Players can choose between a Min.bet of 0.2 and a Max.bet of 200. The game has a default RTP of 96.06%, but it ranges all the way down to 92.07%, so be on the lookout. It has a free spins frequency of 1 in 189 spins and a max win probability of 1 in 3.9 million spins. Lastly, Devil’s Crossroad is played at high volatility and can net you a max win of 13180x the bet. 

Mechanically, the Devil is cooking up quite the adventure. The features of Devil’s Crossroad are Crosslink, Scatter Symbol, Cross Multiplier, Cross Wilds, Redemption Spins, and Bonus Buys.

Devil’s Crossroad Slot Information

The base game takes place on a crossroad, where huge jaws attempt to draw the cars and people down to the depths of hell. Once there, the bonus will be triggered, in which the Devil awaits with a contract, asking you to sign to sell your soul. The game is certainly inspired by NoLimit’s previous release Gluttony, as evidenced by the base game grid and the jaws.

Devil’s Crossroad can be played on all common mobile devices and desktops. A winning combination is created by landing two matching symbols in a row horizontally from the left or right side or vertically from the top or bottom.

What features are available in the slot Devil’s Crossroad?

The features of Devil’s Crossroad are Crosslink, Scatter Symbol, Cross Multiplier, Cross Wilds, Redemption Spins, and Bonus Buys.

Crosslink

The game area is divided into four cross sections, each containing four symbols connected in the center by a Devil Wild. To make a winning combination, you need to connect two symbols from left to right, right to left, top to bottom, or bottom to top, depending on which section the connection is in. Winning combinations are removed and remaining symbols fall toward the center. New symbol falls in to fill the empty spaces.

Scatter Symbol

Scatter symbols may appear in the center row/column of their cross section. When a Scatter symbol appears next to the center position, the remaining symbols in it’s cross section become inactive and symbols of the same type are removed from the other cross sections. Removed symbols can no longer appear for the remaining drops.

Cross Multiplier

When a win occurs, the symbols included are removed from the other cross sections if they are not part of a win. Each symbol removed this way increases its cross-section multiplier by 1. 

Cross Wilds

Any paying symbol next to the center position may randomly become a Wild symbol.

Redemption Spins

Landing 4 Scatter symbols will activate Redemption Spins. The feature starts with 3 spins and will reset to 3 spins every time a coin lands in the reel area. All coin values are valued as times the active bet.

When a reel is entirely filled with coins, a feature will be awarded for that reel on each following spin. The feature affects coins on the reel it is on. Below are the features that can be triggered:

Gluttony

Adds its value to all coins.

Wrath

Multiplies the value of a randomly selected coin on its row/reel.

Lust

Progresses a step towards upgrading Redemption Spins.

Greed

It selects a random coin from its row/reel, which collects all the coin values from its reel/row respectively.

Envy

Turns a randomly selected coin’s value into a copy of the highest current coin value in the entire reel area.

Pride

Selects a random coin from its row/reel and add its value to all other coins on its reel/row respectively,.

Redemption Spins can be upgraded either by collecting 4 levels in the upgrade bar or when all 4 Scatter lands next to the center position in the main game. The upgrade bar collects 1 level either for each Lust feature triggered or for each Scatter landing next to the center position in the main game. Upgraded Redemption Spins trigger a feature for its row in addition to its reel. Devil coin is a special coin that can land during Redemption Spins and unlocks feature of it’s column. If Redemption Spins is upgraded then it also triggers a feature for it’s row.

500x = Triggers upgraded Redemption Spins, where both the reel and row upgrades are active.

250x = Gives you a 50% chance to trigger regular Redemption Spins, and a 50% chance to trigger the upgraded Redemption Spins. 

Devil’s Crossroad Slot Conclusion

A grid like this was first seen in the super bonus of Gluttony. We liked it then, and we like it now. Spinning the base game feels different to pretty much any other slot and is a testament to NoLimit’s strive for groundbreaking, innovative games. Thus, we were quite excited to see what they had cooked up for the bonus game, which turned out to be different from what we expected. 

The Redemption Spins feature is a bit too hold & spin-like for our liking. We said the same when NoLimit released Whacked, and we want to reiterate that we don’t think it’s a bad or boring game by any means. It’s just NoLimit that has created such high expectations by constantly pushing boundaries and giving us new experiences. And of course, it’s not a standard re-spin bonus with collectors and payers, but one with tons of different features and mechanics to boost the values. Furthermore, we would’ve been able to somewhat look past the lack of spark and innovation if it was jam-packed with potential, but with a max win of 13,180x the bet, it’s on the lower end of the NoLimit max win spectrum. 

With all that said, we do think that this is a solid game. It has a nice free spins frequency of 1 in 189 spins, meaning that you’ll see quite a lot of action, albeit the action is slightly toned down. 

Devil’s Crossroad by NoLimit City offers an awesome base game grid and a hold & win-type bonus.
