Royal Nuts

Accompanied by a somewhat infantile tune, the nuts sway across the playing field. All three can turn into golden nuts. And then you grab the biggest prizes at Royal Nuts. This is because these golden nuts each act as 3 different Wilds that become increasingly effective during the free spins bonus.

NetEnt offers Royal Nuts with 3 different payout percentages. Ideally, you should play at a rate of 96.05%. However, you can also come across this slot with payout percentages of 94.02% and even 88.05%. So it is important to always check the payout percentage yourself before playing this slot. Also choose a reliable online casino, so you are not a thief of your own wallet.

We estimate the variance of Royal Nuts to be medium. You can win a maximum of 5,774 times your bet.

Royal Nuts is a video slot with 3 royal nuts that will help you win big prizes both in the base game and during the free spins.

How to Play Royal Nuts

Royal Nuts is played on a playing field with 5 reels. These have in order from left to right 3, 4, 5, 4 and 3 symbols per reel. To the right of the playing field you can see the Royal Nuts that can turn into Wilds.

There are 36 winning lines distributed across the playing field. You bet on these with a minimum of $0.20 per spin up to a maximum of $80 per spin.

You win at Royal Nuts by making combinations of 3 or more the same symbols on a winning line.

Symbols and Payouts

There are 8 different symbols, 3 of which are noble and pay out the bigger prizes. The red nut gets you the most with payouts of up to 17.5 times your bet per spin at 5 on a payline. The blue note is good for up to 15 times your bet and the green note pays up to 5 times your bet. All 3 nuts can turn into Golden Wild Nuts. More on this later.

The low-win symbols are playing card symbols. The 10, J, Q, K and A will pay you between 0.75 and 2 times your bet for 5 on a payline, so they really serve as padding.

Bonus Features of Royal Nuts

During both the base game and the free spins bonus, the 3 nuts can turn into Golden Wild Nuts. In the free spins bonus, this works slightly differently than in the base game.

Golden Wild Nuts

During the base game, the nuts can turn into Wild symbols at any time. This happens completely randomly. There are 3 different Wilds that a nut can turn into.

• Regular Wild: The nut turns into a Wild symbol.
• Stacked Wild: The note turns into a Stacked Wild of minimum 2 and maximum 4 symbols high. During the free spins bonus, Stacked Wilds can become up to 5 symbols high.
• Expanding Wild: The nut turns into a Wild that takes up the entire reel.

Free Spins Bonus

A decorated weapon with the letters F and S on it is the Scattered bonus symbol. With 3, 4 or 5 of these symbols, you win 10, 15 or 20 free spins, respectively. During the free spins, the Golden Wild Nuts work slightly differently.

Jewels can now land on the playfield. There are red, blue, green and white jewels. Each time you land a jewel, it is added to the symbol of the same color. Do you land a white jewel? Then 1 jewel is added to each symbol.

Once a symbol has 2 jewels, it is upgraded to a Regular Golden Wild Nut. So for the rest of the bonus, each instance of this nut is a Wild symbol until you upgrade it again. Indeed, as soon as you collect 2 of the corresponding jewels again, the nut is upgraded again. The note then becomes a Stacked Wild. Do you now collect another 2 matching jewels? Then the note is upgraded one last time to an Expanding Wild.

And especially with those Expanding Wilds, you’ll fetch the fattest prizes, because every Expanding Wild you land thus earns you a Wild Reel. As soon as you land a big prize, the clunky music actually changes to a techno beat. We caught ourselves smiling after all.

In the row of symbols to the right of the playing area you can constantly see how many jewels they have for each of the 3 notes. You can also keep track here of which symbols have already upgraded to a Golden Wild Nut.

Your success during Royal Nuts’ free spins bonus really depends on how fast you land the jewels. Do you grab a few jewels in the first few spins? Then at most, you can still play with Expanding Wilds during the final free spins. It can also happen that you won’t even get these Expanding Wilds. However, do you quickly grab some jewels and manage to quickly upgrade the Golden Wild Nuts? Then this bonus can work out pretty well.
