Rock n Ways XtraWays Review
It's a bit unclear why the dynamic reels XtraWays™ engine was launched with a debut that was less than impressive. Rock n' Ways XtraWays is similar in many ways, but the improved 26,541x potential is a definite plus. The focus remains on the dynamic paying ways and row-adding experience.
The rock theme is well-executed, but doesn't quite reach the level of more intense releases. Unlike Megaways games where the focus isn't solely on the number of rows and ways, Rock n' Ways XtraWays heavily emphasizes this aspect. Building solid rows/ways can be enjoyable, but something more than a non-resetting paying ways bonus round would be appreciated in future releases.
Rock n' Ways XtraWays Features
The ‘sign of the horns’ Wild appears on reels 2 to 6, substituting for all regular pay symbols to create winning combinations. The wild itself has no value, but regular symbols pay between 20 and 60 x your stake for 6 of a kind wins.
The XtraWays counter is displayed above each reel, starting at 3. The counter reflects the number of rows for each reel for the upcoming spin, and special Star symbols upgrade the counters with +1 to +5 per star. Each reel counter can reach 8, but spins without a Star symbol reduce the counter and rows by 1 per spin (down to 3). This dynamic reels system offers between 729 and 262,144 win ways.
You need 3, 4, 5 or 6 scatters to trigger the Bonus Round, awarding 10, 15, 20 or 25 free spins. The XtraWays setup from the base game carries over, and the counters never reset in the bonus round. This means the number of rows and ways continues to grow, and the XtraWays counters reset to 3 upon returning to the base game.

Testing this game was a pleasant experience, especially for fans of rock music.
Review Summary
The most notable change is the significant improvement in potential compared to the initial XtraWays release. The 26,541x max win in Rock n' Ways XtraWays is much more appealing. This release feels like what the debut game should have been.
However, the dynamic reels experience is slower and less seamless than what Megaways offers. The advantage lies in progressively building ways and knowing the row layout in advance. The bonus round only offers non-resetting XtraWays.
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| XtraWays™ dynamic reels experience | A lot hangs on the XtraWays mechanic |
| Up to 8 rows per reel and 262,144 paying ways | Beware of adjustable RTP ranges |
| FS where the XtraWays counters never reset | |
| Win up to 26,541x your stake |

A title revolving around a heavy metal band with animal members, featuring randomly triggered features in both the base game and bonus round. The latter includes a progressive win multiplier for payouts up to 50,000x your stake.
The initial XtraWays release, worth exploring if you enjoy the wild west theme. It has the same dynamic paying ways experience, with non-resetting XtraWays in the bonus round. The 1,541x max win is much lower.
