Break Away Slot

Break Away is a hockey-themed video slot based on a 243 Ways To Win concept. Unlike traditionally designed slots with predefined paylines, the games like this one pay out a winning amount if a certain number of matching symbols land in any position on consecutive reels, beginning at the first (leftmost) reel. In Break Away, you cannot change the number of paylines since there are none, and the bet starts at $0.5 all the way up to $50 per spin. The maximum jackpot prize in the slot is $12,500 and is awarded for hitting five scatters.

Cash prizes you can find in the table are not that impressive, but due to the nature of the 243-ways-to-win mechanics, the same group of symbols is able to create multiple winning combinations on a single spin, which is impossible in payline-based slots. Therefore, your actual winnings can be much higher than those displayed in the paytable.

Bonus features

A wild symbol in the slot (a fire-flaming Break Away logo) comes stacked on reels 3, 4 and 5, thus, increasing your chances to win big. The wild replaces regular symbols but it does not form its own combos. At any time during the game, a hockey player can randomly burst into reel 2, 3 or 4 and make the reel entirely wild with a guaranteed win. This is known as the Smashing Wild feature.

Microgaming’s equipped the slot with the Rolling Reels feature that works as follows. Whenever you get a winning combination, the symbols that form part of it explode leaving empty spaces, which are then filled by new symbols falling from above. If the newly appeared symbols result in a winning combo, the process repeats, and it continues until a new iteration produces no wins.

Three or more Hockey Pucks trigger 15, 20 or 25 free spins with the Rolling Reels feature complemented by cumulative multipliers (up to x10). This means that every new consecutive win within the same spin is awarded at an increased multiplier.
