Cash Collect Feature

Special Train symbols with Cash Prizes of up to 500x your bet can appear on all reels. These symbols are worthless until the Cash Collect Feature is triggered. This occurs when a Collect symbol lands on any row in reel 5.

Once active, the Collect symbol will add up all Train symbol values, which is boosted by the Train Booster Multiplier and awarded. Train symbols may also present 1 of 4 Jackpot Prizes from the following.

  • Mini – Awards 10x your bet.
  • Minor – Awards 25x your bet.
  • Major – Awards 100x your bet.
  • Mega – Awards 500x your bet.

Train Booster

Above the reel set is a special Train Booster. When a Multiplier Upgrade symbol lands in view, it will boost the active Multiplier by +x1, up to a maximum of x10. The Train Booster will reset back to x1 when the Cash Collect Feature has been activated.

Blazin’ Rails Free Spins

Landing a minimum of 1 Train symbol on each of the 5 reels in the base game triggers the Free Spins round, awarding 5 Free Spins.

During Free Spins, each of the 5 reels will have its own Money Vault. Landing a Train or Multiplier Upgrade symbol will increase the values of the vaults. In addition to this, there are 6 other special symbols in play, as follows.

  • Reel Collect – Awards the value contained in the Money Vault above it.
  • All Collect – Awards the value of all Money Vaults.
  • Extra Free Spins – Does what it says on the tin.

Blazin’ Rails: Our Verdict

Blazin’ Rails exceeded our expectations in more ways than one. At first glance, Blazin’ Rails looks to be your typical Jackpot-style game, but it’s so much more than that.

Blazin’ Rails uses a similar mechanic to that seen in Snowborn Games’ Pile ‘Em Up series. The Train Booster is a great way to enhance wins by landing Multiplier Upgrade symbols on the reels, boosting the Multiplier to a maximum of x10. However, when the Cash Collect feature is triggered, it gets reset to x1.

Along with regular Cash Prizes, you may also be lucky enough to land yourselves 1 of 4 Jackpot Prizes, worth up to 500x. Landing Train symbols happens regularly, but collecting them requires a Collect symbol to land on reel 5…not so easy to come by.

Things get even more exciting during Free Spins, where 6 other special symbols take to the reels. During testing, we found they popped up frequently, but we know it’s not always that plain sailing. The Money Vaults above the reels hold onto winning Cash Prizes, further boosted by special symbols that can land at any time.

All in all, Blazin’ Rails is a solid offering from Foxium, a provider that continues to surprise us!
