Five reels, 40 paylines, thematic symbols, and bonus features are included in Rex. The online slot from Novomatic is based on Komissar Rex, a TV series about a German shepherd dog in the Austrian police service.
Presented in bright graphics with a decidedly nineties feel, the game has adjustable paylines, and a range of betting options. Autoplay and Gamble features are optional, while bonus features such as Wilds, Scatters, and free spins form part of the gameplay.
The interface is structured for easy navigation. The playing controls and reels are located on the main screen, with other screens, accessed via the main screen, displaying pay table and bonus feature information.
Rex Reel Symbols
The high-paying and bonus symbols on the reels of Rex online slots are thematic, and show characters and other images that reference the TV series. The symbols that pay lower amounts are standard, coloured playing card symbols.
The themed symbols include the German shepherd dog, a gun outlined in neon purple, a police car, a helicopter, handcuffs, a meat sandwich, a paw print, and a police siren. The paw print and the siren are the Wild and Scatter symbols, respectively.
The playing card symbols include nine, 10, J, Q, K, and A. The paying combinations require three or more of the same symbols to line up, from left to right, in consecutive order, on active paylines.
Rex Bets and Reel Spins
Controls on the Rex online slot interface allow for the coin value to be adjusted, for paylines to be selected, and for the number of coins bet per line to be set in a similar way the players set up their preferences to play online here.
The betting range begins with a minimum of 0.01 per line, and ends with a maximum of 2.00. The maximum bet, which activates all paylines, is 80.00.
The game has a 95 percent return to player rate.
What the Bonus Symbols Do
The two bonus symbols in Rex behave in unique ways. They appear only on reels one, three, and five.
The paw print Wild can substitute itself for all reel symbols except the Scatter, which means it can help them form paytable combinations.
The police siren Scatter can form free spin-triggering combinations from anywhere on its three reels. As long as three Scatters appear, the free spins round will be triggered.
Free Spins in Rex Online Slots
If the Rex online slot free spins round is activated, 16 spins will be played at the same bet as the spin that triggered the round.
During the round, the meat sandwich becomes Wild. This means the paw print and sandwich symbols can help other reel symbols form winning combinations.
Rex Gamble Feature
The Rex online slot Gamble feature only becomes active when paying symbol combinations appear on the reels. The feature is optional, and must be accessed by selecting the Gamble button.
The feature is a game in which the colour of the hole card must be guessed correctly for total winnings to be doubled. An incorrect guess leads to total winnings being lost.
