Slot Features
Wild symbol can substitute in a win for all the symbols except for the Scatter and the Money symbol, and it can appear on all reels during the base game and the Free Spins feature.
Free Spins
Scatter symbol can appear on all reels during both the base game and the Free Spins feature, and it can award Scatter pays and trigger the Free Spins feature. To trigger the feature you will need to land 3, 4, or 5 Scatters that will award 10, 20 or 50 spins respectively.
You can also trigger the feature from the Cosmic Respins through the UFO award. Additional 3 or more Scatters will award extra spins depending on the number of triggering symbols. You can also expect to see Stacked Wilds on reels 2 through 4 during the Free Spins feature.
Cosmic Respins
Full Moon is the Money symbol that can trigger the Cosmic respins feature when you hit at least 6 of them on the same spin. Only Money symbols will be available on the reels and they will take on a random value from a predetermined set that goes up to x100 the bet. Money symbols will be sticky during the feature, and you will also notice the UFOs on the left side of the grid.
UFOs have different awards that it can possibly award and that includes direct random money awards that range between x10 and x250 the bet, multipliers which range between x2 and x50 for all Money symbols, Free Spins that range between 10 and 100 and are randomly awarded, one of the 4 Jackpots which include Mini x20, Minor x50, Major x250 and Grand x2500 the bet.
The feature will start with 3 respins and each time a Money symbol hits the respins count will reset back to 3. Hit symbols will move towards the end of the screen and the UFO next to it will open more empty spots and extend the grid, and there are up to 2 spots on each reel. If all spots get filled by the Money symbols, the award of the UFO next to it will get unlocked. The feature ends when you either run out of respin or all the positions get filled.
Summary
Cosmic Cash takes a humorous approach to the sci-fi, intergalactic travels but despite being an oddball, the features are less so, and so are the numbers. Volatility might be high in the game, and the varying RTP can go up to 96.56% the dough you can win will not go over x2650 which is really low. However, despite all the things that are lacking, the slot can get fairly amusing so you can take it for a test run regardless of the wins.
Cosmic Cash is one of the newest game releases from Pragmatic Play and I explored it just about two weeks ago. I was looking for some new Pragmatic Play games to try- saw the name and decided to give it a try as I had never played it before. Also, the name spoke to me as I quite like games with Space and Alien themes.
The game itself is made by one of the studios pragmatic Play works with. The slot has a Space theme with Aliens around and overall the game design is vibrant and really enjoyable, while looking quite old-school. As for mechanics, the game has 5 reels and 40 paylines, therefore it's a bit expensive- the minimum bets are 0.40$. The base game is quite simple - you get to play on 5 reels and 4 rows and the game has low paying symbols and high value ones as well as wilds. I've played the base game a bit but find it a bit boring. Then when you land 6 or more money symbols, you get the coin respin feature. I've usually bought it instead of waiting for it to land and it comes at a cost of 100x.Â
Other than that, the game also has a free spins bonus round triggered by 3 or more scatters. I've had the free spins a few times, they're quite decnet as you get stacked wilds added to the reels. But so far I haven't had a single 100x win from the free spins feature.
Then the bonus round includes 3 respins, which seem to be quite popular these days. Whenever you land a new coin, the respins reset to 3. The coins you land have different money values. And once you land 4 coins, the reels expand. On top of every reel, there's a different prize- such as one of the jackpots, cash prize, free spins or multipliers. If you manage to get enough coins to land to the top, you will additionally get that prize along with your coin symbols wins. I've managed to get the mini and minor jackpots many times as their value is quite low. Also I've had some free spins where you get stacked wilds added on the screen. While the feature is very simplistic, landing the coins and trying to achieve the prize for each reel seems exciting.
Overall it's a decent game. I love the game design and the respin round due to the twist it has with the reels expanding. But having said that, it's difficult to land any mega wins. If you fill out the whole screen, you get the grand jackpot but it's definitely not an easy thing to do. And at best I've had a 400x bet win due to several smaller jackpots and free spins on top.
