Gameplay and Design
The San Quentin pokie draws inspiration from California’s oldest prison, the San Quentin State Prison, which has housed some of the most notorious inmates. It is undoubtedly one of the world’s most famous jails, appearing in films like Get Hard. The game’s prison theme is complemented by a backdrop comprising prison walls with barbed wire at the top, surveillance cameras, and guard towers allowing the guards to keep watch from a safe distance. Along the top and bottom of the reels are additional positions, locked up for the moment being, which unlock at specific moments, increasing the number of possibilities to win. You’ll notice a Latin-style hip-hop soundtrack that adds to the theme.
San Quentin xWays stars five inmates named Beefy Dick, Loco Luis, Heinrich 3rd, Biker Bill, and Crazy Joe. You don’t want to mess with these guys, let alone share a cramped cell with them. They are slightly more desirable as symbols since they depict the high pays of the game, paying 2.5x to 5x your stake for five of a kind. Following this are different jail items such as bars of Soap, Lighters, Homemade Weapons, Handcuffs, and Toilet Paper rolls, each with a Punk Rocker vibe. The low-pays offer between 1.5x to 2x your stake when you match five of a kind. With San Quentin xWays, Nolimit City introduces yet another pokie featuring their incredible xWays mechanic that can significantly enhance the quantity of winning opportunities. Adding to the paytable, are two wilds. The first is a conventional wild that replaces all symbols except the Bonus Symbol, while the second is a Split Wild. If the Split Wild appears on any reel, it splits each of the symbols on that reel above and below, doubling the number of each symbol and increasing the ways to win. Finally, the guard tower serves as the Scatter symbol which triggers the Lockdown Spins when three land simultaneously.
The game packs numerous features that may seem complex to novices but a demo version and an intuitive user interface gets you acquainted in no time.
