Age Limits: The legal age for online gambling isn’t the same everywhere. It depends on the country or region. In the UK, Ireland, South Africa, and New Zealand, players must be at least 18 years old. In Canada, the age limit varies by province, with some allowing gambling at 18 and others requiring players to be 19. In contrast, India sets the minimum legal age for online gambling at 21.

Top Five Slots & Pokies 27 May to 09 June 2025

(Rated by the Casinoplusbonus EN team)

We tested all the new releases as they came out during the week, and overall, the quality is very high. That said, we had to pick a top 5 to review and have gone for City of Sound by Play’n Go, Eye of Spartacus from Pragmatic Play, Red Tiger Gaming’s Miami Rise, Action Boost Max™ Gilded Mines by SpinPlay Games, and Golden Pinata Hold & Win from BGaming.

Miami Rise (Red Tiger Gaming)

Take a journey into Miami’s underworld and become a kingpin on the reels. Red Tiger Gaming not only takes you to the streets of one of the USA’s most famous cities, but its latest Miami Rise online slot and pokie offers a gamification-style of gameplay with three levels to climb.

The game is set on 5×3 reels with 243 ways to win and high volatility gameplay. Collect cash symbols, cash hit jackpots, and level up the ranks. There are also free spins, cash hit spins and a feature buy.

Miami Rise Features Explained

  • Cash Symbols: Reel 1, 2, 3 and 4 host cash symbols with multiplier values worth 0.5x to 5x.
  • The Kingpin: When Cash symbols and the Kingpin land on the reels at the same time, the game collects and accumulates any multiplier values, and the total multiplier is applied to your total spin bet.
  • Cash Hits: These are effectively non-progressive jackpots. At the top of the reels, you will see Small Hit (5x), Big Hit (15x), Huge Hit (50x), and Mega Hit (500x). You can trigger any of these fixed jackpots by landing Cash Hit scatter symbols on reels 1, 2, 3 or 4.
  • Climbing the Ranks: You begin on a standard level, and above this are three levels, which Red Tiger refers to as ranks. You’ll need to earn 30, 50, and 70 points to level up. That’s a total of 150 points to get to Rank 3.
    • Rank 1: Each time the Kingpin symbol lands on reel 5, it will remain stick for 2 spins. If you also land Cash Hits or collect cash via Cash Symbols, the sticky feature resets to 2 spins.
    • Rank 2: When the Kingpin symbol lands on the reels with its 2-spin sticky count, it will also have a multiplier applied. Each time he collects a prize, his multiplier will increase. As a side note, the multiplier will reset after the Kingpin symbol disappears.
    • Rank 3: At level 3, Cash Hit prizes are worth Small Hit (10x), Big Hit (25x), Huge Hit (5100x), and Mega Hit (1,000x).
  • Free Spins: Free spins scatter land on reels 2, 3, and 4. When three hit in any position on these reels, you’ll earn 10 free spins.
  • Retrigger Free Spin: Landing 3 or more scatters during the free spins bonus will award an extra 10 free spins, thus re-triggering the bonus.
  • Bonus Buy: There are three bonus buy rounds.
    • Kingpin: 9x your bet, and Kingpin will land on the reel.
    • Free Spins: 50x to buy 10 standard free spins.
    • Cash Hit Spins: Pay 240x your bet for 5 free spins with a guaranteed 2 free spins scatters and Cash Hit Spins bonus round with a locked Kingpin symbol with a fixed 5x multiplier, which can increase progressively as you collect cash wins. You will also be playing at Rank 3.

It took us about 200 spins to get Level 1 when we tested the Miami Rise video slot game. Additionally, when we closed the game and reopened it, we were still at Level 1, indicating that the game had saved our progress. Another point to make is that we are always in search of slots and pokies that give us the chance to land big wins during both the base game and bonus round, and Miami Rise does just that. Overall, we feel this is one of the best online slot releases this year so far, but don’t take our word for it. Try the game out for yourself and play the Miami Rise demo slot game to see what you think.

City of Sound (Play’n GO)

The City of Sound online slot and pokie game by Play’n GO transports you back to the 90s Britpop era, featuring two aspiring brothers seeking to break into the music scene. In many ways, it’s a similar story to the Gallagher brothers, who broke onto the UK music scene.

Play’n GO’s latest release features 5×3 reels, 25 pay lines, and low stakes bets starting at 0.05 per spin. On the reels, music fans will spin golden vinyls to trigger re-spins, roll in Union Jack guitars to trigger free spins, and trigger 100x bet multipliers by collecting gold record stacks.

City of Sound Features Explained

  • Expanding Wild Symbols: The wild symbol substitutes for all regular symbols except for gold records and record cases. When it lands on any of the 5 reels, it will expand to fill all three positions. It is also the game’s highest-paying symbol combination, paying out 1x, 10x, or 20x your spin bet when you land 3, 4, or 5 symbols on a payline.
  • Gold Re-spins: Each gold record displays a multiplier value. Landing 6 or more on the reels will trigger the re-spins feature. All triggering records remain sticky on the reels, and you have 3 respins on new reels with blank spaces where there are no records. Each re-spin that fills a blank space with a new gold record will reset the re-respin count to 3, and new records remain sticky. If no new records hit the reels for three consecutive re-spins, the round ends. When the round ends, all multiplier values on each record accumulate, and the feature multiplies them by the value of the triggering spin bet.
  • 1,000x Golden Prize: If during the Gold Re-Spins you fill all 15 positions on the reels with gold records, you win a 1,000x multiplier.
  • Gold Record Collection: Each time gold records land on the reels and there is no gold record case, they are collected.
  • Gold Record Case: After you collect enough gold records, you’ll land a 100x spin bet prize.
  • Mega Symbols: On any spin, a mega symbol can appear on the reels, filling up to 3×3 positions on the reels.
  • Mega Free Spins: 3 Great Britain guitar scatter will trigger the game’s 5 Mega Free Spins bonus game. On every spin, a Mega Symbol will land on a random position. You can also re-trigger the free spins bonus by landing the Mega Scatter.

Overall, City of Sounds is a fun online slot/pokie with re-spins, multipliers, expanding wilds, and a free spins bonus with mega wins. Also, we always enjoy a pokie game that gives you the chance to land features in both the base game and free spins bonus, while there are also two main features!

Eye of Spartacus (Pragmatic Play)

The legendary gladiator Spartacus is back on the reels, ready for more blood-thirsty action, which can only mean one thing for you! Cash wins worth up to 10,000x your bet, multipliers, free spins, expanding wilds and more! You have the chance to battle out on the reels to trigger a high-paying free spins bonus that could result in Super Spin, or you can buy your way into the bonus balance using the buy bonus feature.

In the base game, there is a 96.42% theoretical RTP, while the buy free spins and buy super free spins bonuses offer the same RTP. As for the reel mechanics, you’ll be spinning on a 5×5 grid with 15 pay lines.

Eye of Spartacus Features Explained

  • Wild Symbol: The wild is the game’s joint highest paying symbol, along with the tiger. It pays 25x, 5x, or 1.25x your spin bet for 5, 4, or 3 symbols across a payline. The wild is also the Eye of Spartacus wildcard symbol, substituting for all regular symbols on reels.
  • Expanding Wild with Multipliers: When the wilds land on reels 2, 3, or 4 during the base game or free spins, it expands to cover the entire reel and applies a random multiplier from 2x to 100x to any wins it’s part of.
  • Free Spins: Land 3, 4, or 5 scatters to trigger 10, 15, or 20 free spins. During free spins, each Expanding Wild adds a random multiplier and upgrades the lowest high-paying symbol to the next higher one, plus awards 1 extra spin.
  • Buy Free Spins: Pay 100x your spin bet, and 3, 4, or 5 scatters could appear at random.
  • Buy Super Free Spins: Pay 500x your spin bet, and all multipliers that are part of the expanding wild symbol feature are worth a minimum of 10x.

As with City of Sound by Play’n GO, there are win opportunities in the base game and free spins bonus round, even though the gameplay is rated with 5 lightning strikes by Pragmatic Play, making it high-volatile gameplay. Most games with high volatility usually only bring wins in the base game. As for the buy bonus features, you’ll need deep pockets to recoup your investment. We tested the Super Sins feature, and it took 12 spins to make a profit. However, we were back down again after 14 spins. As such, it’s quite volatile.

Eye of Spartacus Free Play Demo

5-Symbol Combination Spin Bet Multipliers

Wild (25x) Tiger (25x)
Gladiator (20x) Roman Soldier (15x)
Roman Chariot (12x) Sword and Shield (10x)
A (3x) K, Q, J, 10 (2x)

The first symbol must start on reel 1. For example, a 3-symbol win will require the same symbol on reels 1-2-3, and a four symbol combo will need the same symbol on reels 1-2-3-4.

Action Boost Max Gilded Mines (Spinplay)

If you are a fan of Dwarves and their live for gems and gold, Gilded Mines by Spinplay might be a slot worth trying. It offers feature-rich gameplay with a Pick Feature, Jackpots, Expanding Reels, Wild Nudges, Multipliers, and more. The gameplay is set on 5×3 reels with 40 paylines. The game’s theoretical RTP is 96.49%, and there is a chance to win a jackpot win worth up to 5,000x your spin bet.

Action Boost Max Gilded Mines Features Explained

  • Action Boost Max™: When Gems land on the reels, they collect in coloured carts above. If enough collect, you can trigger Action Boost Max™ Free Spins, with special features based on the mix of Gem colours. The free spins use the same bet size as the spin that triggered them.
  • Green Gem Action Boost Max: In the Green Gem Action Boost Max™ feature, you get 10 free spins with 40 paylines and all reels expanded to 6 rows high. Dwarf Coins can award bonus prizes, extra features, or upgrades (up to 2), which add more wilds to the reels for the rest of the spins. When a wild symbol lands, that reel is filled with wilds (nudged), and wins are paid after the reels are nudged for max payout.
  • Red Gem Action Boost Max: You get 10 free spins where Dwarf Coins can give you cash prizes, jackpot hammers, extra features, or upgrades (up to 2). Each upgrade makes it easier to win jackpots by reducing the number of hammers needed. Collect coloured hammers to win one of five jackpots. For instance, Green for Mini, 7 Yellow for Mega — and once a jackpot is won, the hammer count resets.
  • Purple Gem Action Boost Max: You’ll begin with 10 free spins, and Dwarf Coins can award extra spins, bonus prizes, or upgrades (up to 2 times). Each upgrade boosts the win multiplier, starting at 2x, increasing to 3x, and then to 5x. All wins and bonus prizes during the feature are multiplied by the current active multiplier.
  • Multiple Gem Action Boost Max: Again, you are starting with 10 free spins. All Action Boost Max™ features are triggered in the same base spin. If the Purple Gem is included, its multiplier applies to all line wins and bonus prizes (but not to jackpots). The features you get depend on the combination of Gems collected before the free spins were triggered.
  • Pick Feature: Spin in Gold Nuggets to trigger this feature. During the bonus game, pick items to win cash prizes, jackpots, Action Boost Max™ features, or upgrades. If you reveal 3 Terminate Coins, the bonus ends.
  • Non-progressive Jackpots: There are four fixed jackpots. Mega (5,000x), Maxi (500x), Major (50x), Minor (20x), and Mini (10x).

A lot is going on in this online slot and pokie game title, which is why we’ve added it to this week’s new casino games five mini reviews, especially for regular iGaming enthusiasts who enjoy games packed with a variety of fun features.

Golden Pinata Hold & Win (BGaming)

The new BGaming Golden Pinata casual game has made its way into this week’s 5 mini reviews, not because it is a feature-rich online slot game like the four alternatives reviewed above, but because of this simplistic gameplay taking you into Hispanic culture where whacking a paper donkey is a fun, festive activity. We thought we’d highlight a game that’s perfect if you’re looking for something easy on the mind.

It is a ‘Casual’ game that features a 96.14% theoretical RTP, high volatility, and a free spins hit rate of 1 in 182. The only point BGaming makes in the slot’s description on its Golden Pinata Hold & Win game page is ‘Easy Gameplay’. For some reason, that was enough to pique our interest.

Golden Pinata Hold & Win Features Explained

  • Choose Your Tool: Simply set your bet, then select your tool. It can be a baseball bat, a golf club, or a festive stick. Next, just hit the spin button to take a swing at the papier mache donkey.
  • Multiplier Wins: There really is no rhythm or reason behind payouts from each hit of the donkey. There’s no paytable to refer to. You literally hit the donkey and hope for the best. A random number generator controls the best.
  • Free Hits: If a horseshoe symbol bursts out when you hit the donkey or the piñata, then you get 10 free hits.
  • Hold & Win Feature: If a Coin symbol appears, then you trigger the Hold & Win bonus game. You will need to be on a 5×3 grid with 6 gold coins, each displaying a multiplier value ranging from 1x to 20x. That leaves 9 positions to fill on the reels. You have 6 respins to land as many gold coins as possible. If you land the firecracker symbol, then it will add a re-spin. At the end of the round, all gold symbol values will accumulate, and the final amount is multiplied by your spin bet.
  • Fixed Jackpot: If you fill all 15 positions during the Hold & Win bonus game, you’ll win the 5,000x fixed jackpot spin bet multiplier.
  • Buy Free Hits: Buy 10 free hits for 50x your spin bet.
  • Buy Hold & Win: Buy your way into the respins feature for 40x your spin bet.

There really isn’t much to this game, and while that is the case, it is fun! We fully trust BGaming’s RNGs, so no issues with the way results are delivered. There are also numerous extras, including free hits and the Hold and Win game with collectable symbols.

Plus, you can test out the bonus game, where there is a chance you could land a Mega Jackpot worth up to 5,000x your bet by simply buying free hits on the Golden Pinata Hold & Win demo game.
