Loner

Loner is a high-volatility video slot by Nolimit City scheduled for release on May 21st, 2024. The game's theme appears to be centered around 80s nostalgia, possibly with a connection to television. Loner utilizes a standard 5-reel layout with a 243+ ways to win mechanic.

The core gameplay revolves around triggering various bonus features through special “Monitor” symbols. These symbols can land on reels 1, 3, and 5. Depending on the number of Monitors that land, different features are activated:

One or Two Monitors: Reveal one of the following:

• Regular Wild (1×1): Substitutes for all other symbols except Monitors.
• xSplit® Wild (1×1): Splits all symbols to its left and right into two, doubling their value. Transforms into a Wild during a split but doesn't split Monitor symbols.
• Infectious xWays® (size 2-4): Transforms into a regular paying symbol of size 2-4. Infects all occurrences of that symbol on the reels, turning them into the same size as well. Infected symbols can also be split by xSplit®.
• Max Win: Awards the maximum payout of the game (14,999 times the base bet).

Three Monitors: Reveal one of the following bonus features:

• Pin The Win: A moving logo awards win multipliers based on where it lands on the game area. Higher corner positions offer larger multipliers (up to 500x) or the Max Win.
• Shoot Shoot Duck: Players are given 5 shots to take down ducks containing various prizes. These include multipliers (1x-1000x), bombs (collect all visible awards), ammo clips (refill shots), vans (increase in value with each collected award), and Max Win symbols.
• Tick Tick Boom: Players choose a target to detonate, revealing a reward between 5-1000 times the base bet or potentially the Max Win.

To potentially increase the odds of landing Monitor symbols, players can utilize the xBet® option. This increases the bet cost per spin but guarantees a Monitor symbol on reel 1. Additionally, a Double Feature option allows players to purchase two guaranteed Monitor symbols on reels 1 and 3 for a higher bet multiplier.

Loner also offers an xGod™ mechanic. This feature can trigger the Max Win in various ways, including during the base game, within bonus features, or through collecting a Max Win symbol itself.
