Brute Force

Also within other aspects, Brute Force stands out among the Nolimit City slots of recent years. For example, the slot uses 21 fixed paylines instead of All Ways Win. In addition, it is a simpler game than we are used to with only 1 feature and a bonus game.

It does have an RTP of 96.08%. Also, the slot is very volatile and the maximum winnings stay nice and high. Are you curious to know how to win 40,000 times your stake? Then quickly read how Brute Force comes out of the test in this online slot review.

Brute Force by Nolimit City is similar to the old arcade games. Here, however, you hope for “Game Over,” because that means you win 40,000 times the bet.

How do you play Brute Force?

In Brute Force you get a playing field with 5 reels and 5 rows. It contains 21 fixed win lines that are always active. As a bet you can choose amounts between $0.20 and $100 with $1 as the default value when you open the game.

The winning lines run from left to right. This means you look for at least three times the same symbol on connecting reels starting on the far left reel.
These can be the 5 card symbols with a payout of 0.25, 1 or 2 times your bet if you can collect 3, 4 or 5. Preferably you will see the 5 characters. The yellow and green give you up to 5 times your bet, the red and blue up to 10 times your bet and the orange up to 20 times your bet.

Bonus features of Brute Force

In a Nolimit City slot, you always look out for various bonus features. In Brute Force, they can trigger the “Game Over” screen, giving you 40,000 times your bet. There are fewer features than we are used to from the developer, though. Besides a bonus game, they involve the patented xNudge and xBet.

xNudge Wild

The xNudge mechanism is what we like to see in a video slot. You’ll find it in the Brute Force slot as well, with as many as three different editions. They are three character Wild symbols that cover the entire reel.

If you see even just 1 piece of them, they nudge themselves all over the reel. Per nudge, the Multiplier goes up and then they pop into the little meter at the bottom to increase their Multiplier even further. These are the characters, what value they get per Nudge and their maximum Multiplier.

• Joshua (yellow) gives +1 nudge multiplier and a max. multiplier of x8
• Jason (orange) gives +2 nudge multiplier and a max. multiplier of x21
• Hyper (red) gives +5 nudge multiplier and a max. multiplier of x51

Brute Spins

On reels 2, 3, 4 and 5 there are symbols with the typical inscription ‘VS’ like in arcade games. If you manage to collect 3 of them, you win 10 Brute Spins in the boss area to the left of the playing area. These are Free Spins where you seem to have a better chance of getting xNudge symbols.

However, if you had 4 Scatters in your play area, then you trigger the Super Brute Spins and may go to the underground hideout. Here there is a chance that an xNudge will remain for the rest of the round. This can be very lucrative.

Nolimit Bonus and Booster

To trigger a bonus round faster, click on the yellow asterisk. Here you will see that the Bonus Buy is divided into 2 categories: Nolimit Bonus and Nolimit Booster.
In the first category, you will find the ability to buy Brute and Super Brute Spins. For 100 times the bet you get 3 Scatters and for 800 times the bet it’s 4 Scatters. In addition, you can gamble on the Lucky Draw with a 50/50 chance between regular or super spins for 450 times the bet.

The Booster has four options:

• xBet for 4.7x: Guaranteed Scatter on reel 2 for a 10 times greater chance of a bonus game.
• xNudge 1 for 60x: You are guaranteed 1 xNudge symbol.
• xNudge 2 for 333x: You are guaranteed to get 2 xNudge symbols.
• xNudge 4 for 4,000x: You are guaranteed to get 4 xNudge symbols.

What do we think of the Brute Force slot machine?

As we are used to from Nolimit City, Brute Force is another very powerful game. The high payout up to 40,000 leaves every player hoping. Using fewer features makes the game easier to follow.

However, we find the use of red for the best xNudge mixed with orange as the best symbol very confusing. In addition, it is quite expensive to increase your chances of winning a bonus game.
So those are the only two comments, because the design and music are again put through a ring.
