NRVNA Slot review

NRVNA, a game released by NetEnt, appears to be based on Nirvana, though you don’t actually see it on the reels.

NRVNA comes from NetEnt and the game’s action appears to be taking place somewhere in the ocean, as you can see the dark blue water in the background. The symbols in front are on the boring side, being based on icons which you typically see in classic titles, ranging from diamonds, to shamrocks, bells or 7s, along with the poker cards which are just as boring by now. Though it promises some kind of next level experience, it doesn’t seem to deliver it. Features have among them free spins, a very high multiplier, scatters and wilds. 30 lines are present in this game, which can pay up to $10,000 normally, but which can go even higher than that in certain cases.

As I’ve said, the design mixes mostly classic symbols, starting with the diamonds or the stars that trigger features, and continuing with regulars that include cherries, 7s, bells, shamrocks or horseshoes. Lastly, we have the poker icons.

NetEnt doesn’t typically do this, but in this slot machine you have the option of choosing the number of active lines, and the highest number here will be 30. You can take the bet level to 10, which will use 10 coins for each line. You can also get the coin value up to $0.50, which means that you can get away with a bet on each line of up to $5. The maximum wager will reach a value of $150.

I found the wild symbol to be quite a useful feature. It has the image of a white star in a pink bubble, it acts as a substitute only and it will triple the wins it helps form. This should even apply to the jackpot, which means that you can get up to $30,000 instead of $10,000.

The Diamond scatter is placed inside an orange bubble and it will be used to trigger the free spins. The number of symbols that trigger the feature determine how many rounds are offered, the range being 10 to 30. A NRVNA wheel will be used here, showing at random a number which will be the multiplier for that round or additional free spins. It can offer up to a 10x multiple.

NRVNA doesn’t have a very clear theme, but at least it gets a decent design, very good features with high multipliers and adequate prizes thanks to those.
