Play San Quentin xWays

San Quentin xWays is one of Nolimit City’s signature video slots, a gritty tale of America’s most dangerous criminals in one of the country’s most notorious prisons. 

The game is played on a classic 5x3 reel set with 243 fixed paylines. There are also two locked rows, one above and one below the main grid, known as Enhancer Cells. These have special symbols to help you unlock bonus features and try your hand at the 150,000x max win in this extremely high volatility game.

To score payouts, you need to match three or more identical pay symbols on consecutive reels from left to right along one of the title’s 243 fixed paylines. The value of your payout is determined by the type of symbols matched, as per the paytable, based on a £1 bet: 

Enhancer Cells 

The Enhancer Cells in the locked top and bottom rows are filled with high-value pay symbols, wilds, xWays symbols, or Razor Split Symbols. When activated, they reveal their symbols and enact their features:  

• xWays Symbols: All xWays symbols reveal the same pay symbols stacked four high. When xWays appear on both active Enhancer Cells on the same reel at the same time, the entire reel is filled with eight single wilds.  
• Razor Split Symbols: Razor Splits split all symbols into double cells. If the Razor Split lands in the top and bottom Enhancer Cells on the same reel at the same time, it splits the positions twice.  

Split Wilds 

Split wilds can land on any reel. When they do, they split all the regular pay symbols on the same reel in two.  

Bonus Symbols 

The bonus symbol can appear on all reels in the base game and in Enhancer Cells in Lockdown Spins. Hit three or more on a base game spin to trigger Lockdown Spins. 

When just one or two land without the triggering third, they transform into wilds and open the corresponding Enhancer Cells on their reels.   

Lockdown Spins 

The number of Jumping Wilds you start the bonus with depends on your triggering bonus symbols:  

• 3x bonus = 1 Jumping Wild 
• 4x bonus = 2 Jumping Wilds 
• 5x bonus = 3 Jumping Wilds 

The reels where your triggering bonus symbols landed will have unlocked Enhancer Cells for the duration of the feature. Before the round starts, you’re assigned a random number of free spins and a symbol multiplier. 

During the bonus, landing additional bonus symbols will award you with extra spins and Jumping Wilds, with the number of spins determined by the values in the Enhancer Cells. Inmate mystery symbols can appear in unlocked Enhancer Cells, awarding random multipliers to boost your wins. 

When inmate mystery symbols appear, they reveal one of the five top-paying inmate symbols or a Jumping Wild. The Jumping Wild starts with a set payout multiplier that is applied to all wins. 

If your win total during the bonus reaches the 150,000x max win, the feature will immediately end, and you will be paid out.  

Jumping Wilds 

Jumping Wilds are like normal wilds with win multipliers, and they jump to different positions on each spin. When a Jumping Wild lands on the reels with the Razor Split enhancer, it will double its multiplier, which remains for the rest of the bonus. A maximum of three Jumping Wilds can be active during any bonus.
