All aboard! Pragmatic Play‘s new London Underground-inspired slot, Down The Rails, takes players through various well-known areas of England’s capital via its rapid transit system, the Tube. The 5×3 reel title takes us back in time and features some famous historical ps along with its share of modifiers, bonus, and free spins that can lead to wins of up to 5,000x the bet.
The imaginative video slot has 20 fixed paylines and players collets wins by landing three to five-of-a-kind symbols on adjacent reels starting from the far left side. For play on all devices, this highly volatile spinner’s theoretical RTP is at its highest at 96.51 percent. High volatility games tend to pay out less often, however, the chance of hitting a bigger win in less time is higher. Set your stakes from $0.20 to $100 per spin on this trip underground.
Game Symbols and Paytable:
Regarding the game’s colorful symbols, card royals J, Q, K and A serve as the lower values and pay from $0.40 to $10.00 for three to five-of-a-kind, while a handful of famous British ps including Sir Isaac Newton, Florence Nightingale, William Shakespeare, Winston Churchill and Henry VIII are the high pays and worth from $1.00 to $50.00 or 10x25x the bet the same way. Appearing on all reels, the Wild symbol substitutes for all symbols except for the Bonus and feature-specific symbols and pays from $4.00 to $50.00 when landing three to five of them, the same as the game’s highest pay six-time married former King of England symbol.

Each of the Shifting Wild Stacks includes a random x2 or x3 multiplier applied to all wins passing through them.Bonus Blitz – randomly awards the Bonus feature or the End of the Line round.
Bonus Rounds:
Players can also either trigger or gamble for one of five individual bonus rounds. The former can be initiated by landing at least three scatter symbols. Players can accept what they’ve been awarded or choose to gamble it.
Successful attempts at the latter award the next higher tier bonus, while unsuccessful gambles result in a 4-24x the bet payout before returning to the base game. Gambling is over when one of three scenarios plays out – it is lost, the bonus is accepted, or the End of the Line is won.
The five non-retriggerable bonuses take players across well-known London destinations. They include:
Pentonville – awards 5 free spins. Winning combinations are marked into a cluster and the remainder of the symbols respin. When there are no symbols left to be added to the cluster, respins end and winning combinations are paid.Kings Cross – also awards 5 free spins. During this bonus feature, spots on middle reels are marked with a cross. A wild symbol landing in a marked spot sees all symbols in the other marked spots transform into wild.Buckingham Palace – awards 8 free spins. This round sees a fully stacked wild symbol added to the reel strips. If it lands outside of the screen, it moves vertically to cover all positions on its reel. Additionally, all character symbols transform into the one that is worth the most.Canary Wharf – 8 free spins are also awarded here along with a new collect symbol. On random spins, character symbols can display random values of 1x to 50x the bet. If the collect symbol happens to be in view at the same time, the values are awarded.End of the Line – a Hold & Respin feature. The round starts with 3 respins on an empty grid. When character money symbols hit, the spin count is reset back to 3. Money symbols lock into place with values of 1x to 2,500x the bet, and when special symbols – Extra Life, Prize Boost, Expand and Multiplier – land, they are collected.
The round is over when either respins are exhausted, the win cap is hit, or the grid is covered in money symbols.
