Ultra Hold and Spin

If you're feeling nostalgic or just want to play some classic type of slot but with modern features, it's time to take a look at this release.

Ultra Hold and Spin from Pragmatic Play is a perfect example of how combining the old and the new would look like, so without any further ado let’s check it out.

What’s The Theme About? Is It Any Interesting?

Ultra Hold and Spin by Pragmatic Play software provider is an online video slot that has a classic theme. 

When I say classic, I mean the 7s, fruits and all things related to old - style slots. The graphics are nice even though we're talking about a slot game that's made to look old-fashioned. 

The background is set on fire and the reels are placed inside of that flame. The red color seems to dominate the game. You can already guess what the symbols are, but let’s note them out anyway.

The most valuable symbol is the Lucky 7 worth 50x the bet when seen in combination of 3. Slightly less worth are the Bars, Watermelons, Strawberries and Stars while the least paying icons are represented by Oranges, Plums, Cherries and Black X.

There is also the Flaming Wild Symbol which will substitute for all other regular icons on the grid to help from a winning combination. It can appear on all 3 reels but it can’t replace Money Symbols which appear on the 2nd reel only.

And What About The Betting Options And Special Features?

Ultra Hold and Spin video slot comes with a grid setup of 3 reels, each 3 symbols tall and 5 pay lines where winning combinations are made by matching at least 3 or more symbols from left to right.

To start your classic experience, you’ll need to place your bets which vary from the least amount of $0,05 up to a maximum bet per spin of $250,00. A betting range as vast as this is optimal for all kinds of players, regardless of experience and skills.

The title’s volatility is rated at 4 out of 5 according to the developer, making this slot medium-high volatile and offering maximum wins of 500x the stake. It’s an okay max win to say the least but we’re used to seeing more when it comes to Pragmatic Play slots.

However, the RTP is 96,70% which is above the industry average.

Let’s check out the features!

The Flaming Wild can help you in two ways. Firstly it will act as a replacement for all other symbols and secondly, when it is a part of a winning combination it can expand to cover the full reel providing more chances for winning.

Money Symbols - Money Symbols can appear only on the second reel bearing a cash value. When you manage to cover the whole reel with Money Symbols ( 3 ) you’ll trigger the Hold and Re-spin feature.

The Money Symbols that participated in triggering the feature will become locked as 4 Re-spins follow. Land as many extra Money Symbols on reels 1 and 3 to cash out and each time a new Money Symbol lands the re-spin counter resets.

Look out of the Diamond Symbol that will appear only during the Hold and Re-spin feature as it can come with prizes of up to 500x the stake.

Shall We Wrap It Up?

Ultra Hold and Spin is a decent looking classic slot. It has an enhanced set of features and a RTP of 96,70% to help you win. It is a great mixture of old school gameplay and modern features.

If this is not your cup of tea, and if you’re more of an adventure type and like to explore then you should most definitely check out Pragmatic Play’s Da Vinci’s Treasure release.
