Behind Bars: Nolimit City’s Folsom Prison
Following the success of San Quentin xWays, Nolimit City takes players back behind bars in Folsom Prison. Inspired by the infamous Californian penitentiary and the legendary Johnny Cash song, this slot offers a gritty and intense experience. The game starts with a restricted 4-6-6-6-4 reel layout, with many positions locked behind bars, offering 16 ways to win initially. However, unlocking cells is key to expanding the grid and potential.
Rated as “Insane” volatility, Folsom Prison boasts a massive maximum win potential of 75,000 times the stake. The default Return to Player (RTP) is 96.07%, though a lower 94.01% version also exists. The gameplay centers around unlocking cells and the unique Cockroach feature.
Two middle rows on reels 2-5 are initially locked. Landing Wilds, Scatters, xSplit, or xWays symbols unlocks adjacent locked cells. Scatters only land on the middle two rows of reels 2-5 in the base game and only on reel 5 during the Walk the Line bonus. Landing 1 or 2 scatters unlocks the middle reel positions and converts the scatter(s) into Wilds, xWays, or xSplit symbols.
The star feature involves Cockroaches. Their nests can appear on the open positions of the middle 3 reels. When a nest activates (via scatters or in bonus rounds), a Cockroach emerges. It walks across the reels, adding multipliers to any symbol positions it passes over. Cockroach multipliers multiply the ways to win for that symbol. Multiple cockroaches can add multipliers to the same position, increasing its value. Cockroaches can also upgrade scatter symbols.
Landing 3 scatters triggers the Walk the Line bonus (8 spins), guaranteeing at least one Cockroach nest per spin. Landing 4 scatters (requiring one to be split by xSplit or upgraded by a Cockroach) triggers The Chair bonus (8 spins), guaranteeing 3 Cockroach nests per spin and starting with an expanded 4-4-4-4-4 grid.
Folsom Prison delivers another high-volatility, feature-rich prison experience from Nolimit City. While the max win is lower than San Quentin, it’s potentially more achievable. The focus on unlocking cells and the multiplying Cockroaches creates unique and potentially explosive gameplay.
