Grand Spinn slot review (Netent)

We will give you a bit of a warning: at first glance, Grand Spinn looks like one of those boring old- fashioned slots

Fortunately,  with the three-reel setup and just a single payline, that is just the outer appearance: Grand Spinn is full of fun surprises, nudges, multipliers and jackpots.

Like Amatic’s Scarab Treasure video slot, another one-reel wonder, we were pleasantly surprised.

There is also money to be won with this Grand Spinn slot: you can net up to 10,000 x your total bet.

How does Grand Spinn work?

Grand Spinn has the simplest of setups: 3 reels and just the one payline.

Above and below the payline, there are rows of symbols, but these don’t have paylines. They are just there to give the nudge feature extra body: by showing what symbols are coming up next, the player’s win experience is greatly enhanced.

Betting starts as low as $€ 0.02 a spin. Of course, you can go higher than that: the maximum bet is a whopping $€ 200 a turn.

The payout rate is 96.16%, and the variance is high.

Symbols and payouts

The symbols consist of fruit, sevens and BAR symbols: everything you are used to seeing on a mechanical slot machine. The sevens have the highest value. After that come the fruit symbols and, finally, the BAR symbols.

As you form winning combinations, you receive nudges. As long as new winning combinations can be created, the reels will keep nudging.

As if that wasn’t fun enough, the party starts all over when you manage to hit an ‘up’ arrow.

Besides that, there are also wilds and multipliers (up to 8 x) to be won. Sometimes you win the same big prize multiple times in a row, and we have to tell you: that feels pretty good.

All in all, it is possible to win over 7,000 x the total bet with the regular symbols, but then everything has to fall in place perfectly. We estimate the chances of that happening minimal.

However, wins between 400 x to 800 x the total bet are common enough.

Win up to 10,000 x the bet with a jackpot

When all reels are done nudging, you can still win 1 of 3 jackpots.

You win a jackpot when on the top row (so above the payline) there is a jackpot symbol on every reel. Of course, you also win if those three jackpot symbols appear on the actual payline.

Did you spin a mixed row of jackpot symbols? Then you win the lowest value of the 3.

• Mini: 40 x the total bet
• Midi: 200 x the total bet
• Mega: 10,000 x the total bet

The chances of winning the Mega Jackpot are once in every 167,770 spins; those odds are actually quite favourable.

You can also play Grand Spinn Superpot versions with a local progressive jackpot instead of the fixed Mega Jackpot.

Our verdict on the Grand Spinn video slot

We had meagre expectations with this slot: we are never thrilled about these straightforward online slots as a rule.

Our concerns, though, disappeared very quickly with Grand Spinn: because of the many extra features such as jackpots, wilds, multipliers and especially the nudges, there is always more than enough going on.

We definitely had fun with this Netent slot, with loads of potential for big wins.
