Slot Features
Shark is your Wild symbol that can substitute for all the other regular symbols in the game to help form winning combos.
Mystery Symbols
The base game comes with 3 different mystery symbols: Regular, Octopus and the Bomb mystery symbol. With the Regular mystery symbol, all the landed mystery symbols will contain the same type of symbol. The Octopus mystery symbol will change a selected symbol type into a mystery symbol. The Bomb mystery symbol will act as a regular mystery symbol but will also destroy all non-mystery symbols after wins are added. If two bonus symbols are already collected, one mystery symbol can reveal a Bonus symbol.
Free Spins
Bell is the Bonus symbol and it will help you trigger the feature when you hit at least 3 of them on the same spin. If you do not want to wait for the triggers, you can simply buy your way into the feature. Once the feature is triggered, you will get to choose between three available options: 8 Spins in Coin Collection, 5 Spins in Sticky Mystery and 7 Spins in Stacked Wild.
Coin collection will let you collect Gold, Silver and Bronze coins by landing Collection Chest or the Persistent Collection Chest symbols. By filling out the available Coin Meter you will upgrade the Coin values and get +1 spin. Each landed Coin contributes to the meter and fills it by one step. When you land a Persistent Chest, you will get awarded 5 extra spins. There is also a chance that the Coin Rain will occur and have 10 coins drop on the grid at the same time.
Stacked Wild will give you two types of Wild symbols: Multiplier Wild and Countdown Wild. The multiplier on the Wilds ranges between x2 and x5 while the countdown timer starts at 3. For every generation the Countdown Wilds are included in a win, their counter goes down by 1, and once it reaches 1 they are destroyed at the last win included.
Mystery symbols are more frequent and sticky throughout the Free Spins feature. Landing a sticky mystery symbol will award an extra spin by filling the meter. Mystery symbols, however, can be present on reels 2 through 6 only.
Hot Mode
This is a randomly triggered event that can happen at the start of any of the 3 Free Spins modes. When you get into the Hot Mode, there is an increased chance that you will score big wins.
Summary
Net Gains does not have that wow factor when it comes to visual aspects, but when it comes down to the gameplay the slot is able to dredge up tons of fun when you get on a roll. The game brings a lot of action to the grid but nothing is too overly complicated. Overall, this entertaining piece is capable of delivering high volatility at 96.10% RTP and x15000 the bet as max win capacity.
What do you do when you see a game that has 4096 ways to win, a 15,000x maximum possible win, yet requires only 0.10 (0.50 RM) bet per spin? What did I do? I played it of course...not just once, but several times over several separate occasions! Yes, I don’t like Relax Gaming games in general, but when the trying and playing doesn’t involve getting my bums kicked, then I’d go for it!
Net Gains plays with 6 reels and 4 rows, not to my liking of course, because the symbols on the screen become much smaller in size, and I simply hate straining my poor old eyes looking at those tiny symbols. I simply cannot imagine those people who play this kind of games on their smartphones. Maybe they don’t even look at the symbols, just at the win splash screens maybe. Naaah, that’s not how I would like to enjoy my games, any game.
The free spins game in Net Gains has 3 different modes to choose from – 8 free spins in Coin Collection, 5 free spins in Sticky Mystery, and 7 free spins in Stacked Wilds. I really don’t like having to choose any one of those modes, preferring the good old ways of free spins with extra features already included in, and awarding only 5 to 8 free spins is also always not good enough for me. Pick whichever mode you like, but any one of the three can actually pay good or eat good. Yes, I have tried all the modes but I cannot really say which one I like more. As long as the free spins don’t pay a zero win, then it’s okay with me.
The one feature that could provide good rewards is the Hot Mode Lucky Boost, which could give much bigger wins than the usual free spins, but this mode is a rarity indeed. I’ve never got it before, not even once, so I don’t expect much of it happening though. It’d be my lucky day when that happens, hahaha. Other than that, the gameplay itself is quite fun and exciting, but not always giving, mostly taking, but then again, which game doesn’t, right?
