Extreme Games Slots

Here’s a blast from the past we’re certain you forgot all about! Say hello to IGT’s Extreme Games, which challenges players to some of the most dangerous stunts today! Thankfully, we don’t have to do all the tricks ourselves! Our only goal is to accumulate enough luck and score as many wins as possible! The slot takes care of everything else. So if you always to be an athlete, but didn’t want to put in the effort, now you have the chance! And if you’re a real lucky athlete, you can even nab a big win or two!

Gameplay

We can’t really fault IGT’s release for its dated graphics. They were the best the developer could do back in the day! Sadly, that excuse doesn’t really work for a lot of gamblers. They’ll take one look at Extreme Games, decide it’s too dull and blurry for their tastes, and decide to skip it. We can’t say we fault them. The background image is just one colour and not all symbols have animations. Even the icons which are animated often have choppy or silly animations.

You play this slot on a 5x3 board with 25 paylines which can be turned on or off. All paylines pay left to right only. Sadly, real life thrill-seekers won’t be able to find many actual adrenaline rushes in Extreme Games. The winning potential is decent, but it’s just that. Decent. The only way to realistically land a decent prize is with the assistance of special features which IGT’s release offers us. To be fair, you could also get an awesome prize by landing a five-of-a-kind Wild win. But the odds are hardly stacked in your favour if you’re going to try that!

Old games usually mean somewhat tedious ways of changing your total bet. Unfortunately, this slot falls into that category to the T! You have to change your line bet, the coin denomination and the number of active paylines all at once! This does give you more flexibility, mind you. So you could wager as little as GBP 0.01 per spin! Of course, that means you have to play with just one payline, which is hardly a recipe for success. Meanwhile, if you go all out you can stake GBP 250 every turn.

The offered jackpot is alright, but it’s nothing life-changing. Most of the fun comes from slowly accumulating your pile of wins, rather than landing one big cash prize. If this is what you like, then you’ll love Extreme Games! Sadly, we cannot claim the same, but not because of the less than stellar top prize. Our gripe lies with the lack of any RTP information. Anything below 96% is usually something we will not recommend. And when there’s no RTP information at all, we advise staying as far away as possible!

Bonus Rounds

Collect three, four or five Scatters to win five, ten or twenty-five free spins, respectively. There are no additional bonuses active while extra turns are being played. No multipliers, cascading reels, or any of that fun stuff.

That said, you do get to play a bonus by collecting 1000 points! How do you collect these points? They’re accumulated with each winning spin. The goal of the special feature is to clear all the jumps, which rewards you with 1000 coins.

Summary

Is Extreme Games bad? No, it’s really not. For the year it came out, it has decent graphics, and the gameplay isn’t half bad. Is the slot good? Well, no. The visuals are outdated, and the pays could be a lot better. If we ignore the RTP issue, this game would be aggressively average. Neither bad or good, it would just be there, as something you play when you’re bored of everything else. We wouldn’t have recommended it anyways, but that decision is further reinforced by IGT not releasing RTP information.
