Cactus Riches Review

NetGame might not be among the most stellar studios on the gaming scene at present, but they tend to come up with some neat ideas every now and then. In this review, we’ll examine Cactus Riches, which is a 5x4 slot with 40 paylines that has some nice gameplay tricks up its sleeve.

The theme of Cactus Riches is all about cactuses and Mexico, and it’s fair to say that the slot’s graphics are nicely colorful. We should also point out that the game seems to be geared primarily for mobile devices, as its two fields (aside from the playing field, there’s also the special Cash Pool field), are stacked atop each other, which looks better on smartphones than on laptops.

Let’s now say a few words about the math model of Cactus Riches. Its volatility is high, and its hit frequency clocks in at 22.5%, which is pleasant enough. The most you can win in one go is then 2,503x your stake, and the game’s betting range runs from £0.30 to £30 per spin. Unfortunately, the theoretical RTP of Cactus Riches is only 92.17%, which is an awful value that’s well below the current industry standard of 96%.

Cactus Riches Slot Features

The paytable of Cactus Riches is dynamic, which means that you can always easily check how much you stand to win for each of the possible combinations. There are then 9 pay symbols in total, and they are divided into 5 low pays and 4 high pays.

Aside from pay symbols, the reels also contain Red Chilli Wilds, Green Chilli Bonus symbols, and Cash Pool symbols. While Red Chilli Wilds help you complete winning combos and also come with payout values of their own, Green Chilli Bonus symbols trigger free spins and Cash Pool symbols trigger the Cash Pool feature.

The special Cash Pool field is always visible on top of the regular playing field, and you can activate the Cash Pool feature by landing 4 or more Cash Pool symbols. This will net you the rewards from the corresponding positions for an instant win, and prizes that you reach via Golden Cash Pool symbols will actually even get an upgrade before they are paid out!

Landing 3 Green Chilli Bonus symbols triggers the Free Spins feature with 10 free spins, and retriggers are possible as well. What’s more, all Wild symbols that land during free spins double as Cash Pool symbols, which naturally makes it much easier for you to trigger the Cash Pool feature.

Review Summary

All in all, Cactus Riches is certainly a flavourful online slot that delivers an interesting experience thanks to its Cash Pool feature and focus on mobile gameplay.

• Mexican theme with colorful graphics
