Twister

Twister is an online slot game inspired by the classic physical party game of the same name, first released in 1966. NetEnt has creatively adapted this beloved game into a digital gambling experience, capturing the essence of the 1960s era.

The slot's visual design presents a nostalgic view of a typical 1960s living room. Players observe the game from a top-down perspective, with the game grid laid out like a Twister mat on the floor. The retro-themed room features iconic 60s furniture, including an armless sofa and a boxy cathode ray tube TV, enhancing the vintage atmosphere.

Core Game and Mechanics:

Twister features a distinctive 4×6 grid layout, which is uncommon in slot games. The game utilizes 1,296 ways to win, with winning combinations formed from left to right, requiring at least three matching symbols.

The slot incorporates the Avalanche mechanic. When a winning combination occurs, the winning symbols are removed, allowing new symbols to fall into the empty spaces. This process continues until no new winning combinations are formed.

Symbols include low-paying card ranks (J-A) and higher-paying character symbols. The game is highly volatile, with a maximum Return to Player (RTP) of 96.04%. Betting ranges from 0.20 to 100 per spin in the base game.
