Time To Watch NetEnt’s The Drive Multiplier Mayhem Slot Preview

18+

Technically, this is not the only Net Entertainment game release in February. They have also announced that their Fantasini Master of Mystery slot will be out on the 11th of February.

So why are we talking about this Drive slot, rather than Fantasini? Because the latter is simply a copy of the Twin Spin mobile slot, but re-skinned with a new theme.

Whilst The Drive Multiplier Mayhem is an original feature, that requires a more careful look in, especially when they practically spell out the excitement for you.

After all, anything with ‘multiplier’ in the title has got to be promising, right?

What we get from the Drive slot video preview

We love NetEnt slot video previews; they pretty much spell out the entire game for you ahead of time, so you know exactly what to expect.

For anyone who loves getting every last screenshot, you can also watch the mobile game preview video here, but we are happy to report that it looks like nothing is lost in translation.

The Drive mobile slot will be as awesome as the online game.

So let’s continue in our exploration of this new mobile slot game and break this up logically by scratching the paint off NetEnt’s brand new car.

Welcome to the future of racing? Or… not.

We get what they were trying to create with the Drive Multiplier Mayhem slot theme; a futuristic city at night, where edgy, cool, young racers fight to be the best in illegal street car contests.

“Welcome to the future! Get set and be ready to race on the virtual streets with the latest game by NetEnt™ – Drive: Multiplier Mayhem™! This speedy car slot game provides an extraordinary experience with Jette racing to reach the finish line.” Official NetEnt description. 

Here’s our problem with the theme; it doesn’t actually look massively futuristic.

Fans of movies will recognise the style as something of a cross between Fast & Furious Tokyo Drift and the classic 1990s film Hackers. This could be a city scape of Tokyo or Hong Kong, and we would believe it, and as for the racers, we’ve seen more outlandish outfits walking the streets of London.

Which is no bad thing. Each in their own way have their cool factor, and there is still a slight future-punk feel that brings an edge to what could have been a fairly dull theme.

But, let’s be honest; it doesn’t look half as awesome as the Guns and Roses slot coming out on January 21st.

Key statistics of the Drive Multiplier Mayhem slot

So the theme is hit and miss at best, but let’s pretend we are not really car people. In which case, the main draw would be how this Drive Multplier Mayhem video slot plays.

“Drive: Multiplier Mayhem™ is an energetic 5-reel, 3 bet line video slot with Multiplier Wilds and Free Spins. The game keeps the adrenaline high with bet line Multiplier that can reach a massive 120 X bet. Additionally in Free Spins Jette is up racing against three racing rivals, and adds even more excitement to this lively video slot! So, get set and go!” Official NetEnt description.

We knew the excitement was all about the multipliers; here’s everything we know for sure:

• Wild symbols that come with a multiplier according to the reel (wilds on reel 2 has a 2x multiplier, wilds on reel 4 has a 4x multiplier etc…).
• Multiplier wilds are cumulative; so a 2x multiplier + 4x multiplier = 8x multiplier on the win.
• Free Spins with 3 bonus levels equally a potential 18 free spins with roaming wild symbols and multipliers.
• Return to player rate: 96.70%
• Max potential win of 5,109 times your bet in the free spins.
• Min/max bet: 0.15 / 75
• 5 reels, 3 rows, 15 bet lines (fixed)

Is this NetEnt Drive slot worth getting excited about?

Those multipliers certainly look interesting don’t they?

If nothing else, they should keep things lively in the base game, with each spin giving you the potential for up to 120x multiplier if you catch all four wilds in a row.

How likely that is to happen is probably fairly rare (because slot machines), but getting an 8x multiplier, or 6x, or 10x isn’t – those combinations only require 2 wilds on screen.

That’s a real possibility in pretty much any game.

That said, the value of the main symbols do look pretty low, which we suspect means you’ll need those multipliers to get any kind of decent win during the base game. Still, if they show up often, we doubt we’ll mind.

Our worries about the 3 stage free spins

The Drive Multiplier Mayhem slot game is not the first NetEnt game where you have multi-level free spins.

Our biggest concern was that their last attempt at something like this was with the pretty dismal (in our opinion) Steam Tower slot; where you had to fight your way to the top, hope to catch 47 free spins, all for a measly 7x multiplier.

But then we realised this sounded like nothing like the Drive online slot 18 free spins with roaming wilds. Instead we realised it was a strange mix of Jack and The Beanstalk and the Aliens slots.

Both of which are mobile casino games we rate highly in the NetEnt Touch portfolio. If Drive Multiplier Mayhem is as lively as NetEnt promise, and the free spins come with enough hope for some big wins, it might just be another hit for the Swedish game studios.

Where can I play this Drive Multiplier Mayhem game?

You can find the full selection of great mobile slots games, including Aliens and the Jack and the Beanstalk slot to keep you busy till the 23 of February, at a number of great mobile casinos.

Our top choice, always, is Leo Vegas casino, one of the best around. They also give you 20 free spins no deposit, plus a huge £1,500 / $€1,000 in bonus over 4 deposits and 180 free spins after your first deposit.

You won’t find a more welcoming offer.
