NoLimit City is famous for its extraordinary and often unusual slots featuring themes that no other provider dares to tackle. This time around, we can surely say that it is not going to be any different. As the title suggests, Remember Gulag will have a somewhat dark theme and design. You, on the other hand, shouldn’t be scared or intimidated but, on the contrary, should dare to peek into the dark depths of Gulag and see what it is all about.

Initially thought to be named Vacation in Gulag, in the events of the Russian invasion in Ukraine, NoLimit City decided to change this slot’s name to Remember Gulag. The software provider also announced that all profit from this slot will be donated in favor of the humanitarian crisis.
Characteristics
Remember Gulag is a 6-reel slot machine with 720 possible ways to win. The reels are arranged in a 3-3-4-4-5-5 formation. As always, the volatility remains as high as possible, and the payout ratio is estimated at 96.08%. It can be extremely rewarding to win up to 30,000X the bet when playing Gulag.
The opening screen of Remember Gulag is positively arresting, with a stark, dark-toned image of a Soviet-era gulag prison camp in the background. The Gulag camps were prison camps in the 1930s and 1960s, where unwanted people were transferred to escape the Soviet regime.
The theme is therefore arresting and genuinely historical. Events in Ukraine today put the game in an even more different and topical light.
Gulag Spins are played with symbols with multipliers.
The game’s low-paying symbols are Cyrillic letter-style playing card patterns 10, J, Q, K and A. The larger symbols are various camp characters, with the main winning symbol of course being the scary-looking Stalin figure.
