Nolimit City takes a sharp turn into slasher horror territory with Kiss My Chainsaw. This game follows two unsuspecting hitchhikers who accept a ride from the seemingly friendly Chainsaw Larry, only to find themselves in a terrifying fight for survival. The game starts on a 4×4 grid with 256 ways to win, but features cascading wins and expanding reels.
Rated as “Extreme” volatility (10/10), Kiss My Chainsaw offers a maximum win potential of 10,900 times the stake, a slightly more modest cap compared to some Nolimit behemoths. The default Return to Player (RTP) is 96.10%, with lower settings also possible.
The gameplay features cascading symbols (called Avalanches) where winning symbols are removed, and new ones drop in. Key features include:
* **Charged Wilds:** Wild symbols that land with a charge. If part of a win, they remain on the reels, nudge down one position, and increase their multiplier by +1 for the next avalanche.
* **Scatter Symbols:** Gas Can scatters trigger free spins.
* **Burnout:** If no win occurs after two consecutive avalanches, all symbols are removed, and 5 new symbols drop onto the bottom row.
Two main bonus rounds exist:
1. **The Ride Spins (8 Spins):** Triggered by 3 scatters. The grid expands to 5×4. Charged Wilds are active. Landing an additional scatter awards +1 spin and upgrades the round to The Last Ride spins.
2. **The Last Ride Spins (9 Spins):** Triggered by 3 scatters + 1 Gas Can scatter on the last reel, or by upgrading The Ride spins. Played on a 5×5 grid. A guaranteed scatter lands on reel 5 on every spin. Charged Wilds are active.
During both free spin rounds, landing Chainsaw Larry (a special scatter) triggers the **Chainsaw Larry Spins**. This awards +3 spins and introduces Enhancer Cells on the bottom row. Chainsaw Larry becomes a jumping wild, moving to a random position on each spin. Enhancer symbols (Smiley Face, xSplit, Lucky Feet) can land in the Enhancer Cells, triggering modifiers like symbol multipliers, splitting symbols, or transforming Larry into a multiplier wild.
Kiss My Chainsaw delivers a high-octane, horror-themed experience typical of Nolimit City, albeit with slightly simpler mechanics compared to some of their more complex titles. The combination of avalanches, nudging multiplier wilds, and the escalating tension of the free spin rounds creates a thrilling, albeit controversial, slot.
