Space Race

Space Race Slots is an interesting online slot game from provider Play’nGo which revolves around space and science fiction, more specifically the technological race between the US and the USSR to be the first to explore space.

Space Race Slots is a 5-reel 20-payline video slot machine and as can be expected from such a game, symbols include planets, rockets, astronaut, satellites, meteors and high card symbols done in a sci-fi metallic theme.  Obviously since the game revolves around occurrences having taken place in the 1950, the symbols, graphics and animations were kept subdued but the sound effects are quite realistic.

The wild symbol is represented by the Space Race logo and substitutes for all other symbols except those of the scatter and bonus.  The Space Race logo offers one of the highest payouts during the regular game at the rate of 5,000 times the line bet.

The meteor shower symbol is the scatter and when 3 or more such symbols appear on the reels, a Warning sign appears and players are awarded 10 free spins.  During these, the scatter becomes an extra wild symbol which is quite useful in boosting players’ wins.

The bonus game in Space Race slots is triggered by the appearance of 3 or more rocket bonus symbols on the reels.  This activates a Pick Me feature during which players navigate through deep space in order to reach the moon.  During the trip, they need to avoid meteors as the closer they get to the moon, the higher the bonus prize is.
