Euphoria

Euphoria Review

Euphoria is a simple game that is part of the Extreme Pays series. The name matches the visuals and music, but the high volatility will only give you joy if it leads to big wins up to 20,000x.

The reels are set against a cosmic background, and it plays out on 5 reels, 3 rows and 243 ways to win. You can place bets between 30p and £30 per spin. The RTP of 95.99 % is around the industry average.

The game features a progressive multiplier that you will benefit from both in the base game and during the bonus round. You build it up by landing multiplier wild stars, and it can reach as high as 243x in the free spins bonus round, where it also does not reset. This can lead to big payouts in the end, and you can also win solid payouts in the base game here. This makes it an attractive game.

What symbols are there?

The J-A royal symbols are at the lower end, and on the very top you’ll find a diamond. In the middle, there are 4 different colored gemstones that pay out decent amounts. You will need 3 to 5 matching symbols on a payline to win, except for the diamond symbol which also pays for only 2 on a payline. Here is the paytable:

• Diamond - Pays 13.3x for 5 on a payline
• Blue gemstone - Pays 6.66x for 5 on a payline
• Purple gemstone - Pays 3.33x for 5 on a payline
• Green gemstone - Pays 2.66x for 5 on a payline
• Orange gemstone - Pays 1.66x for 5 on a payline
• Royal symbols - Pay between 1.33x to 1x for 5 on a payline

What are the bonus features?

The main feature is the Euphoria Spin Feature, and it plays a role both in the base game and during the bonus round. This bonus feature is triggered randomly, and you will see between 1 and 3 star wild gemstone symbols land.

Each star symbol can step in for all regular symbols to help you form winning combos (in addition to the regular wild symbol), and they also come with multiplier values of either 2x or 3x. If you land more than one star wild as part of a winning combo, the multiplier values will be multiplied with each other, which means that multiplier boosts up to 27x is possible.

Free spins

The game logo is the scatter symbol, and you need to land it on the same spin on reels 1, 3 and 5 to trigger the free spins bonus round. This will start you out with 8 spins, and whenever you land a star symbol it activates the 2x multiplier above the reel. Landing another star wild on the same reel, gives you the maximum of a 3x multiplier for that reel.

Don’t worry though, as you can max out every reel with 3x multipliers here, and in the end these will all be multiplied with each other for a glorious payout. If you activate all 5 of the multiplier reel stars, you will be granted 5 extra free spins, and the maximum multiplier boost you can benefit from here is 243x your stake.

Depending on your location, you can also opt to buy the free spins bonus round. This will cost you 100x your stake, and it guarantees that 3 bonus symbols land on the next spin. Due to the progressive multiplier action and potential, this option might just be worthwhile for some players.

What is the jackpot (max win)?

While there is no progressive jackpot, this game offers a solid potential anyway. The game comes with a max win of 20,000x your stake. This is solid even for a highly volatile game, but the max win is "limited" to £600,000, due to the somewhat low max bet of "only" £30 per spin.

Where can I play Euphoria?

You can play for real money at one of the listed casinos.

Verdict

Euphoria has a soothing vibe to it, but that’s only the presentation. The volatility is very high. This is, of course, something to keep in mind, but the 20,000x max win potential and the progressive multiplier action more than weighs up for that.
