Down the Rails Slot Machine

Down the Rails is a 5 reel slot with 20 fixed paylines. Winning combinations are formed when 3 or more of the same symbol type land from left to right, starting from the left-most reel.

The Spin, and Bet Adjuster options are at the bottom-right corner of the reel setup, while the Info button, the settings one, and the mute option are below the left-bottom corner of the grid frame. The tune utilised in Down the Rails is appropriate to the theme of this slot, though some of the sound effects may be too gambling machine-like.

The paytable within Down The Rails is loaded with historic characters. However, there are also the standard Jack, Queen, King, and Ace symbols at the lower end. Now for the premiums, we have Isaac Newton, Florence Nightingale, William Shakespeare, Winston Churchill, and finally, King Henry The Eighth. There are also wilds in the form of newspapers, which pay the same amount as King Henry. Red trains are the last icon, which is responsible for triggering the bonus.

You can enjoy the sights and sounds of this impressive game on PCs, iOS, Android, and Windows mobiles. Tap plus or minus tabs next to the main spin button to choose coin values and the number of coins per line, and you are ready to play.

While there is only 1 symbol related to the bonus in Down The Rails, there are actually a handful of different mini-games that can be activated on any spin. The first is tunnel vision, which adds mystery symbols to different reels, all of which will transform into the same icon. Next up is the big smoke, which adds a huge 3x3 symbol to reels 1, 2, 3, or 4. 

Wild strike is the name of the next mini-game, which will place a random number of wilds over the playing area. Shifting stack will see an expanding wild placed on different reels, some of which will contain a multiplier. The final feature that can be randomly awarded is Bonus Blitz, which will award you with the main bonus.
