Nitro Bombs – The “Nitro Bomb” symbols trigger the game’s Free Spins feature and the Nitro Blast mini game.

Bonus Features

Nitro Jump– If you can reveal the word “NITRO” across the reels you will trigger the “Nitro Jump” bonus game. Before the game starts you need to choose which vehicle you want to take you across the jump. You can choose between each of the following: a motorbike, a scooter, a BMX, a sofa, a rocking horse, a mini car and a bath tub. Each of the vehicles has different stats that give you different advantages in the bonus. Some are bigger, so can use their size to pick up more icons. Others are quicker, so have more power to reach certain icons. Whilst others can perform better tricks, which essentially means they are more mobile, again, this allows you to pick up more icons. As you will have established you need to pick up as many icons as you can during your jump. You take your vehicle through a series of jumps and as you do so you try to pick up icons you go. Before you begin you do some warm up jumps where you gather coins, speed boosts, multipliers and collectable vehicle tokens before the main game begins. A full set of vehicle tokens awards one run on the Nitro Jump course. Collecting Speed Boosts will allow you a burst of Nitro, which will essentially increase how long you get to play the bonus and give you more time to pick up coins.

Free Spins – Collecting 3 or more of the “Nitro Bomb” symbols will award you with a certain number of Free Spins. 3 will award 10 Free Spins, 4 will award 20 Free Spins and 5 will award 30 Free Spins. Collecting one “Bomb” will trigger the “Nitro Blast Mini Game”, and will award you with either additional Free Spins, a multiplier or one of the Nitro Jump symbols.

Nitro Blast Mini Game – You trigger this bonus game by collecting 2 “Bombs” on the main game and 1 “Bomb” during the Free Spins. This is a click and reveal game where you can win vehicle icons, Free Spins, Wilds and multipliers.
