Introduction to Noodle Riches Loot Collect
Noodle Riches Loot Collect is a casino slot from Pear Fiction Studios that takes us to a busy Asian noodle joint with arcade video games. It comes with the Loot Collect Feature, which we have already seen in games such as Squealin Riches 2 and 4 Spicy Frenzy Loot Collect. Loot Collect symbols can appear on reels 1 and 5 in both the base game and the Free Spins, and they can show up even if there’s no loot on the screen. They can stay on the reels up to 4 spins, and award a bunch of different juicy modifiers apart from grabbing instant prizes.
Now it’s time to see what’s new in this loot release.
Theme, Gameplay, and Payouts
Noodle Riches Loot Collect is a video slot from Pear Fiction Studios with 5 reels containing 3 rows and 25 paylines. The Min.bet is 0.2, and the Max.bet is 10. Noodle Riches Loot Collect has an RTP of 96.04% and very high volatility. The max win is capped at 25,000x the bet, and the hit frequency of 18.92% means that almost one spin in five is a winner.
The game takes us to an Asian restaurant where tables and noodle bowls share space with arcade games. The walls are full of paintings, and there’s a teddy bear ordering a drink in a vending machine in the upper right corner. The five reels stand between two high tables with noodles. Above them is a display of the present Jackpots, and above that are three teddy bears eating noodles. Next to the bears sits a smiling cat. To make a win, you need to land at least 3 matching symbols on one of the paylines going left to right. All wins must start on the first reel to the left, and you can play the game on mobile phones, tablets, and desktop computers.
The lower-paying symbols in Noodle Riches Loot Collect are 10, J, Q, K, and A. They pay 1x the bet for a 5-of-a-kind win. The higher-paying symbols are ice creams, chips, lamps, small video games, and big video games. They will give you between 2x and 7x the bet for a 5 containing 5 symbols. The Wild Symbol substitutes all the mentioned symbols, but not any of the special ones.

Final Thoughts on Noodle Riches Loot Collect
We told you that we were going to find out what’s new in this game, but the sad part is that nothing’s new compared to Squelin Riches 2 and 4 Spizy Frenzy Loot Collect. This is a reskin of a reskin, with the exact same features and stats as in the previous titles. The theme is cheerful, and the game looks way better than 4 Spizy Frenzy Loot Collect. The teddy bears look permanently satisfied, and the arcade-restaurant mashup is amusing. But when the reels start spinning, we’re hit with a feeling that we have done this before, even if it has been in other places.
The gameplay is smooth, and the feature list is longer than the menu at a late-night noodle bar. The Loot Collect mechanic works exactly as expected, and the jackpots grow just as we’re used to. It’s worth noting that you’ll probably have to spend a ridiculously long time spinning these reels if you want the Epic Jackpot to increase from its starting 1,000x to the game’s max win of 25,000x the bet.
Noodle Riches Loot Collect from Pear Fiction Studios is a decent time-waster with plenty of flashing lights. If you’ve never played any of the games this release is copying, it’s actually a really pleasant game.
