Drive: Multiplier Mayhem is a 15-payline video slot with the theme of fast and exciting car races, running on the NetEnt software platform. Apart from thrilling music and sleek design, the game features multiplier wild cards, the scatter symbol and the Nitro symbol which moves players to the next level. Players can test the game for free on this page or, should they wish to play the slot for real money, they can pick any of the NetEnt casinos from the listings.
To join Jette on her exhilarating races against opponents, players should choose their wager first. The bet level is adjusted with the “Level” selector, while the coin size, which ranges from 0.01 to 0.5, is set using the “Coin Value” selector. To initiate the game, players need to press the “Spin” button. The “Max Bet” button turns the reels at the highest wager, while “Auto Play” spins them for a number of times uninterrupted.
3 scatters emerging on reels 2, 3 and 4 will trigger the Free Spin round wherein players receive 10 Free Spins. If 3 Nitro symbols appear on reels 2, 3 and 4, additional Free Spins will be won.
When players collect Nitro symbols, they get stacked in the Nitro Collect Meter. If a Nitro symbol emerges atop an overlay multiplier wild, it is counted as both a Nitro symbol and a multiplier wild.
The Free Spins start with players racing as Jette against the first opponent Twitch. When 3 Nitro symbols are collected, players move on to the next level. A random multiplier wild is won and the next racing opponent emerges—Hamaki or Bruiser, depending on the level.
When players reach a new level, more Free Spins are won along with another multiplier wild.

Drive is the newest game from Netent software and was released less than a week ago. I was waiting for this release as I had seen the promotional video and the game seemed refreshing. I have to say that design wise Netent has done a great job, in my opinion, the game is inspired by car race theme and that's something I haven't seen from them before, therefore it was fun. The color scheme was dark, as the race is in the night, but I love it.
When the game launched, as usually casinos were giving free spins on it. In most occasions I would get 5 free spins and win few cents, so when Doublestar casino was having a promotion that if you deposit 10€ the next day you receive 50 spins on it, I couldn't resist. The free spins overall gave me 15€ win, because I managed to trigger free games within them.
There are many things I like about this game. First of all it has amazing wilds feature, whenever a wild lands, it multiplies the line win depending on which reel the wild is. So the wilds are from the regular to 5x, and many times they appear together, so for a 15 payline slot I think the winning potential is decent. Second thing I really like which isn't very important, is that whenever you get a spin, the wining combination stands out, since the slot background is dark, it is easy to just see if anything enlightens, that's a small thing but I like it.
My favorite part of the game is free spins and I really look forward to getting them. I do think that sometimes they can be a little hard to trigger, in one of my sessions I played over 700 spins until I got the free spins. That's because they appear only on reels 2, 3 and 4. But they are definitely worth the wait, as they are exciting and rewarding. Free spins are like a race, which has many parts. If you collect 3 nitro symbols, you get to race the next person. And with each race you get extra spins and extra multiplier, that will appear on every spin. My best result so far has been around 80x bet, but that's when I haven't gone to the last race and I haven't managed to get so far. But I think then you can see really nice winnings.
Overall I think this is a successful release and I will continue to play it. The only thing I don't like that much is the fact that it's a 15 payline slot. I rarely play games with less than 20 paylines,but this might be one of my favorites from 15 liners. I recommend this game, it has nice sounds, good looks and even though on base game my best win hasn't exceeded 30x bet and on free spins 80x, I think it has potential to give a lot more, thanks to the different wild multipliers.
