Speed Heroes Slot Review
Launched in 2018, Speed Heroes is a racing-themed slot developed by Red Rake Gaming. The game represents something of a mixed bag slot in terms of bonuses, action, and gameplay. Themed on motor racing, this release is about as generic as online slots come.
The Speed Run, Nitro Free Spins and Sticky Pistons Roulette modes add a touch more originality to a game which desperately needs it. However, for the most part, you are looking at a game which resembles RTG’s Green Light, or Microgaming’s Good to Go, both of which are as dated and elementary as this Red Rake Gaming release.
From a graphical and imagery perspective, Speed Heroes is not much to write home about. However, once you start spinning the game’s reels and potentially landing wins (the win rate is not great), you might feel differently about Speed Heroes.
How to Play Speed Heroes
Any regular player of Red Rake slots will be more than familiar with the wagering menu in Speed Heroes.
A simple, “total bet” box represents the only way to adjust your bets, and those bets range from 0.30 up to 60.00 a turn.
For that, you will get to spin 5 reels and try to win on 30 paylines.
Much of the imagery in this medium volatile game is standard fare, including chequered flags, various helmets, tyres, and spark plugs. Speed Heroes has a relatively low RTP of 95.1%. The wild is the standout paying symbol in the game, so let us look closer at that.
- Wilds – Represented by the speedometer, wilds can substitute for standard paying symbols and result in top-prizes worth up to 30,000 coins being paid out.
- Scatters – Petrol cans can reward players with wins worth up to 10,000x a bet. You need at least three to appear to bag a prize.
- Pistons – Piston symbols can trigger the Sticky Pistons roulette bonus if five appear. Getting just three or four will trigger a Second Chance Re-Spin where you could have another crack at landing the symbols you need.
- Bonus – These trophy symbols will trigger 12, 16 or 25 free games when 3, 4 or 5 appear on the reels.
Game Rules
Speed Heroes Slot Features
Speed Heroes has quite a few bonus modes for you to enjoy. There are three of them in total, and they include the Speed Run base game modifier, Sticky Pistons Roulette instant cash round, and a proper Nitro free spins feature. Here is how they work:
Keep your eyes peeled for the driver symbols. The red and black drivers can appear fully stacked on the first and fifth reels, respectively. Should this occur simultaneously, you can activate a Speed Run modifier. This will scatter wild symbols across the reels in all sorts of positions. This almost always guarantees a win, so it is well worth triggering if you can.
Those pistons mentioned earlier activate the Sticky Pistons Roulette game in Speed Heroes. Once it begins, you will get three spins of the wheel. Each time the speedometer style roulette wheel stops, it will award a cash prize. You will get to add three together to pocket a final prize total in this instant win game.
The saving grace in this slot is the free spin bonus. Known as Nitro Spins, every win you land in succession here will increase the progress of a multiplier bar. The multiplier bar starts at 2x, so you are guaranteed to double whatever you win. However, it can rise to 5x in value. You can also retrigger the round by landing 6 to 12 additional bonus emblems on the reels while the feature is in play.
