Nolimit City introduces a new addition to its growing slots portfolio with the release of Skate Or Die, a game that dives into the world of skateboarding. The protagonist, Chad, also known as Plantface, is on a mission to ascend to the top levels of the skateboarding world, even if it means picking up painful injuries along the way.
Skateboarding is not a crime
Skate Or Die transports players to various skateboarding locations, ranging from an abandoned pool to the boneyard, offering a diverse gaming experience. The game’s dynamics are not only influenced by the changing scenes but also by its unique features. xBet® ensures the presence of a scatter symbol on the 2nd reel.
Extra Sauce Row
The Extra Sauce Row positioned at the top of the reels elevates the game by introducing multipliers linked to xNudge® Wild and xZone™ Wild symbols that appear on the reels. The xZone™ feature applies any multipliers from the Extra Sauce Row to adjacent symbols, marking its return since its debut in Gluttony a year ago. Conversely, xNudge® Wilds accumulate any multipliers they nudge across, influenced by xZone™ multipliers.
Free spins
The gameplay revolves around achieving the best tricks, with Scatter symbols enabling players to do so. Triggering Face Plant Spins requires 3 scatter symbols, guaranteeing the appearance of an xZone™ wild symbol on each spin. Dead Meat Spins are activated with 4 scatter symbols, resulting in two guaranteed xZone™ Wilds on every spin. Boneyard Spins, triggered by 5 Scatter Symbols, feature two guaranteed xZone™ Wilds on each spin, alongside regular appearances of xNudge® Wild and xNudge® Wild Supreme Symbols.
The xNudge® Wild Supremes exclusively emerge during Boneyard Spins, accumulating all multipliers from the Extra Sauce Row.
Nolimit City has added extra innovation with the introduction of xMechanic – xCrash™. The xCrash™ feature incorporates crash game elements into Nolimit City titles, with Skate Or Die being the first slot to include it. The Crasher Game, housing the xCrash™ feature, can be activated by landing the Crasher Game symbol during the base game, opting to wager any win exceeding 30x, or purchasing it through the Nolimit Bonus Buy menu.
Extremely volatile
In the Crasher Game, players witness Chad executing his final and most daring trick as he plunges off a cliff. The longer the fall, the higher the multiplier ascends, ranging from 30x to a maximum payout of 30,000x the base bet. However, a harsh crash results in both Chad and the payout plummeting. The game is classified as “extremely volatile,” offering a high-risk gambling experience that is synonymous with Nolimit City’s reputation.
Per Lindheimer, Head of Product at Nolimit City, said:
Chad’s got the same dream every skater chases—to hit the big leagues, no matter how many bones he breaks along the way.
He’s throwing down everything he’s got in Skate or Die, skating through epic spots and landing trick after trick, even if it means a few trips to the ER. And let’s not forget the Crasher Game—it’s been in the works for a while, and we’re hyped to see players take the plunge and see if they can survive the fall!”
Review Overview
Summary
Skate or Die slot has a raunchy urban 'yoof' theme centred over a skateboard park and course. There's 5 reels of 3 rows and 243-ways to win with 5-of-a-kinds paying 4x for lead character Chad down to 0.6x. As with all NLC games, you have many inbuilt modifiers, in this case a dynamic row of symbols above the reels. These are of no multiplier or 2, 3, 4 and 10x and will be activated by any xZone school Wild beneath them which in turn applies that multiplier to any touching symbol both adjacently or diagonally, the other activator being the xNudge Wild which expands, increasing 1x for each row it does and these values add if more than one lands. In the bonus, the xNudge Wild becomes a supreme and will take all multipliers from the top row, not just the one above itself. The smileys are scatters and 3, 4 or 5 will all trigger 10 free games but these are scaled, Face Plant, Dead Meat and Boneyard respectively. In the first type, a guaranteed xZone Wild appears every spin, the second two will land and the top version has two as well but will also have the chance of the xNudge Wild Supreme. There is a final twist ehre - the Crasher symbol can land over the whole screen and pays 30x bet but can be gambled in a Crash Game. You click STOP when a skateboarder is in the air sometime before he lands, to win your 30x up to a maximum of 30,000x bet. He lands in a grave, you lose, in a dumpster ironically, you win.
