Eagle Strike Hold and Win Review

Iron Dog Studio are undoubtedly one of the more flexible developers on the market, and it’s easy to be pleased with the vast majority of their releases. With Eagle Strike Hold and Win, they decided to go with something fairly formulaic, though, which typically isn’t for the better. We’ll walk you through everything the slot has, however, and you can then decide for yourself whether to give it a go or leave it alone. Let’s start with the slot’s playing field. It’s rather classic, and consists of 5 reels, 3 rows and 243 ways to win.

The theme of Eagle Strike Hold and Win will take you to the American wilderness. The visual style is slightly cartoony, but in a good way. The designs are all colorful and detailed, which makes for a good atmosphere overall, and things are further boosted by the slot’s pleasant soundtrack.

Mathematically, Eagle Strike Hold and Win is a game with a medium-high volatility level, and its jackpot clocks in at 5,100x your bet. That’s relatively decent, and it’s good to see that you can enjoy the slot for all sorts of stakes between £0.10 and £50 per spin. It’s also worth noting that Eagle Strike Hold and Win comes with RTP ranges, and that the offered RTP values are 88.20%, 94.39%, and 96.17%.

Eagle Strike Hold and Win Slot Features

There are 9 pay symbols in Eagle Strike Hold and Win, but things aren’t in balance between the low pays and the high pays. For low pays, there are 6 card ranks, from Nines to Aces, and that really is quite a lot. The contrast is especially stark due to the fact that there are only 3 high pays.

There are quite a few special symbols, too, and the list features Eagle Wilds, Scratch Scatters, Golden Nuggets and Strike Nuggets.

Kicking off the gameplay, we have the Tumble feature, which works like Cascading Wins. All winning symbols are automatically removed from the board, with new symbols replacing them in the process. This, of course, can lead to new wins, and it all continues until you find a configuration without a winning combination.

Land 3, 4, or 5 Scratch Scatters to trigger the Free Spins feature with 8, 12, or 20 free spins, respectively. You can get more free spins with more Scratch Scatters during the feature as well, and all Wilds automatically expand to cover entire reels. If you get one without a win, you’ll get a free respin to boot!

Find 6+ Strike Nuggets and/or Golden Nuggets then triggers the Hold and Win feature. You’ll get 3 respins to start with, and each new symbol that lands and sticks to the playing board resets the tally back to 3. Golden Nuggets come with bet multipliers, while Strike Nuggets can get you fixed jackpots. For 3 Strike Nuggets, you’ll get 50x your bet, while there are 250x and 1,000x payouts as rewards for 4 and 5 Strike Nuggets, respectively.

Review Summary

Well, what can we say. Although Eagle Strike Hold and Win is by no means an original slot, it puts together familiar gameplay features in such a way that it all makes for a thrilling experience. Notably, there are more bonus features than you usually get to see, as even Tumbles make an appearance.
