Junkrat Max Slot Review

About the Game

Junkrat Max spins on a 6×6 grid with 50 paylines, bringing to life a junkyard laboratory where Dr Max, an eccentric rat scientist, hunts for energy resources to build his next big machine. From buzzing batteries to junk-powered inventions, every spin charges up the chaos in this high-voltage invention playground. The game is packed with features such as restartable free spins with expanding jokers, win multipliers of up to 100x and money-building re-spin rounds where falling out of new cheese wheels or old televisions tops up your spin count. Random extra spins and surprise bonus rounds keep the tension high on every spin. With Wild symbols that can increase to 6×6 and a maximum win potential of 25,000x, Junkrat Max provides an electrifying gaming experience powered by pure junkyard genius. Start spinning and see what Junkrat builds next.

Wild Symbols

There are two types of Wild symbols, each with its own role. One is Dr Max, which appears only on the first reel and substitutes for all symbols except the Lunchbox Collector, Battery Wild, Cheese Wheel and Old TV. The other Wild symbol, depicted as a charged battery, appears on reels 2-6 and has a multiplier of 1x, 2x, 3x or 5x. It substitutes for all symbols except the Lunchbox Collector, Dr. Max Wild, Cheese Wheel and Old TV. When both Wild symbols appear together in the same spin, they activate the Shock & Rock Free Spins feature.

Cheese Wheel symbol

Represented by mouldy cheese, it appears on reels 1-5 during the main game and on all reels during the Snack & Hack Collector game. It acts as a bet multiplier and assigns a random multiplier of 1x, 2x, 3x, 3x, 5x, 10x, 25x, 50x or 100x whenever the Lunchbox Collector symbol lands on the reels in the same spin. During the main game, it only pays out if the Lunchbox Collector appears outside the Hot Spots. If it lands inside a Hot Spot, the Snack & Hack Collector feature is activated and the prize is awarded in the bonus game.

Old TV symbol

Represented by an old TV set, it appears on reels 1-5 during the main game and on all reels during the Snack & Hack Collector game. It multiplies the total winnings randomly by 2x, 3x, 5x, 10x or 100x whenever the Cheese Wheel and Lunchbox Collector symbols appear on the reels in the same spin.

Lunchbox Collector symbol

Represented by a cheese labelled lunchbox, it only appears on reel 6. It acts as a money collector when one or more Cheese Wheels appear on the reels in a single spin.

Hot Spots

The two marked middle positions on the last reel act as hot spots. Hitting certain combinations of bonus symbols in this area activates the Snack & Hack Collector feature, a bonus game in which players can collect prize symbols for cash rewards.

Snack & Hack Collector

Activated when the Lunchbox Collector symbol lands in the Hot Spot while at least one Cheese Wheel symbol is present on the reels. The feature starts the prize collecting sequence with 2 re-spins. Cheese Wheels multiply the current bet by 1-100x, while Old TVs increase the value of all collected Cheese Wheels, multiplying the winnings by 2-100x. Each time a new Cheese Wheel or Old TV symbol lands, the number of spins is reset to 2. Cheese Wheel symbols will remain on the grid while Old TVs will re-spin.

Shock & Rock Free Spins

A high-voltage feature that combines restartable free spins, expanding Wild symbols and win multipliers. It is activated when both Wild symbols, Dr. Max and Battery, land together in the same spin during the main game, awarding 5 free spins. During the Dr. Max feature, the Dr. Max Wild remains on the reels and collects all Battery Wild symbols that land anywhere on the grid. As more Batteries are collected, Dr. Max Wild increases in size and awards additional spins.

Shock & Rock Progression:

• 5 Battery Wilds collected: unlocks a 2×2 Dr. Max Wild and adds 3 extra spins,
• 4 more collected: unlocks a 3×3 Dr. Max Wild and adds 3 extra spins,
• 4 more collected: unlocks a 4×4 Dr. Max Wild and adds 2 extra spins,
• 3 more collected: unlocks a 5×5 Dr. Max Wild and adds 2 extra spins,
• 3 more collected: unlocks a 6×6 Dr. Max Wild and adds 1 extra spin.

The total number of Battery Wilds collected is displayed on the progress board. In addition, Battery Wilds can carry multipliers of 1x, 2x, 3x or 5x, just like in the base game. When collected, Dr Max absorbs the multiplier and applies it to the winnings. All collected multipliers are summed up.

Junk & Roll

This Respin feature is activated randomly in the main game after a spin ends without a win and there is at least one special symbol on the reels. It sets the reels to re-spin according to the following rules:

• Dr. Max Wild on the reels causes the 2nd to 6th reels to respin once,
• Battery Wild causes the 1st reel to respin once,
• Lunchbox Collector causes the 1st to 5th reels to respin once;
• Cheese Wheel causes the 6th reel to respin once.

Recycle Spin

Activated randomly during the Shock & Rock Free Spins or Snack & Hack Collector bonus games. Recycle Spin gives an extra free spin during Shock & Rock or a re-spin during Snack & Hack after all allocated spins have been used. This feature is not available during free spins if there are no empty spaces to place new Cheese Wheel or Old TV symbols. It is also not available during the Collector game if Dr Max Wild has already expanded to the maximum size of 6×6.
