Nitropolis TV Slot Review

Nitropolis TV Slot Overview

When I first loaded Nitropolis TV, it was obvious ELK Studios were not done with this dystopian animal metropolis. The action shifts from the battlefield to a makeshift TV station on a sunlit rooftop, where a kooky vulture hides his head inside a cardboard telly. It still feels very much like Nitropolis, yet the mood is brighter and more playful, with piano riffs and electronic bleeps carrying the show.

Under the tape and nailed planks sits a 6 reel, 4 row layout with 4,096 ways to win as standard. Nitro Reels occupy a separate row above the grid, so the chaos is better organised than in earlier parts. Bets run from 0.20 up to 100 a spin, driven by a 94 percent RTP, a hit frequency around 22.1 percent and medium or high volatility, with maximum exposure of 10,000 times your stake.

Nitropolis TV Demo Version

As with most ELK titles, I like giving Nitropolis TV a proper run in demo mode before risking cash. The free play version matches the full release in volatility, bet range, Nitro Reel behaviour and bonus frequency, so I can test stake levels and X-iter options without pressure. It is a handy way to get used to the vulture features and see how persistent Nitro Reels behave in free spins.

Nitropolis TV Slot Information

The scene overlooks downtown Nitropolis on a sunny day, with puffy clouds above and skyscrapers in the distance. The ramshackle grid is strapped together with cardboard, planks and tape, while the vulture host stands on a little platform, ready to switch channels when features hit. Wins need at least three matching symbols on consecutive reels from the left, unless Both Ways is active, when lines can also start from the right.

The paytable in Nitropolis TV sticks to the familiar clan set up. J to A royals are the low pays, each worth 0.25 times the bet for six of a kind. Premiums show a rat, pug, cat and dog for 0.5 to 2 times the bet for six. Wilds appear as a vulture or pigeon, substitute all pays, and a full wild way matches the top premium. Bonus and Super Bonus tiles show a TV camera and trigger their free spin modes.

Nitropolis TV Slot Features

Every paying symbol in Nitropolis TV can land as a Big Symbol in 2x2 or 3x3 size, counting as the number of 1x1 spaces it covers. Above each reel sits a hidden Nitro Reel that can flip open and reveal 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 or 12 copies of a pay symbol or wild. When a Nitro Reel takes part in a win, the main grid and that Nitro Reel respin, which keeps rounds alive far longer than a single spin.

Upgrading Stars tie the main reels and Nitro Reels together nicely. Any pay symbol may carry a star badge; when it lands, the star activates or upgrades the Nitro Reel above that column. Each upgrade increases the number of symbols held, up to a cap of 12. If a Nitro Reel is already at maximum size and receives another upgrade, it turns into a stacked wild reel, which is where I have seen some of the nastier hits.

The vulture feature symbol lands on the main grid with its head framed in a multicolour circle. When it hits, it triggers one of four modifiers before turning wild itself. Nitro Upgrade activates or improves several Nitro Reels, while Nitro Shift moves them around to make or enhance wins. Match Up converts chunks of low symbols into one premium. Both Ways pays wins from right to left as well, and in the super bonus it stays active for the whole round.

Nitropolis TV: Slot Features

Free spins in Nitropolis TV come from landing three to six Bonus or Super Bonus cameras. They award 8, 10, 12 or 14 spins, and during the round any Nitro Reels that activate stay persistent right through, which can stack huge symbol counts over time. Extra Bonus symbols give one extra spin. If at least one Super Bonus symbol helped trigger, you enter the super bonus, where every spin starts with a wild-filled Nitro Reel and Both Ways active.

On top runs the X-iter menu, ELK's feature buy suite. For 3 times the bet you get Bonus Hunt spins with quadruple chance to trigger the bonus. Ten times the bet guarantees a vulture, while 25 times provides a spin that combines a vulture, an active Both Ways state and a wild Nitro Reel. I tend to skip straight to the regular bonus for 100x or, bankroll allowing, attempt the super bonus at 500x.

Nitropolis TV: Slot Verdict

Across the Nitropolis saga I have seen Nitro Reels used in all sorts of wild ways, yet Nitropolis TV might be the tidiest take so far. Parking the Nitro Reels in their own row cuts visual clutter without losing the crazy potential they bring. The 94 percent RTP and spiky medium or high volatility will not suit every bankroll, but the 10,000x cap, charming vulture host and clever modifier package make this a very easy spin for me.
