Roamin Romans UltraNudge Review

Bang Bang Games are not giving up on their innovative UltraNudge™ system at least, and persistence will many times pay off in the end. Roamin' Romans UltraNudge is the 5th installment in this series so far, and it takes you back to the glory days of Ancient Rome. The presentation is cartoonish and colorful, with a somewhat feminized version of Caesar and a Centurion who is smiling from ear to ear for reasons unknown.

Don’t be fooled by the lighthearted atmosphere, however, as Roamin' Romans UltraNudge is quite a volatile game with a pretty solid 8,569x max win. Centurion Wild wins trigger the UltraNudge feature, and Caesar Wilds parade across the grid while its multiplier increases by +2 per step. He can even expand to cover full reels at random times, and the non-resetting multiplier is carried over to each new instance in the bonus round. Roamin' Romans UltraNudge took us a bit by surprise, as there is a solid game underneath the less than serious facade.

Roamin' Romans UltraNudge Slot Features

The premium symbols, consisting of boots, money bags, chalices, harps, and the top-tier sword symbol, pay between 1 and 4 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins. Both the Centurion and the Caesar Wild symbols step in for regular pay symbols as their core function, and this helps complete and/or improve wins.

Both wilds trigger a unique feature when part of a win, as we shall see below.

The trademarked Roamin' Romans UltraNudge feature triggers whenever any wild symbol partakes in a win. All symbols on the relevant reels will nudge one position down after the initial win has been paid, and this may land you a new winning combo that’s also paid. The process repeats indefinitely as long as you keep winning.

The Caesar’s Wild March feature triggers whenever the Caesar Wild symbol partakes in a win, and the Caesar Wild is upgraded with an x2 multiplier. The Caesar Wild will then move one step to the left per nudge that follows, and the wild multiplier increases by +2 per move. This feature goes on until the wild moves off the leftmost reel, and Caesar Wilds will sometimes expand to cover the full reel as well.

The Imperial Bonus Round triggers from 3 scatters in view, and this gives you 10 free spins.

The Caesar Wild multiplier is stored, which means that every new instance starts with whatever multiplier has been achieved. It never resets for as long as the feature lasts. If you have active Caesar Wilds on the grid after the 10 free spins have played out, the bonus round continues until there are no more Caesar Wilds present. All winning combinations, even without any wilds, trigger the UltraNudge feature in the bonus round.

The 50/50 Gamble feature is presented up front when the bonus round triggers, and it gives you the option of gambling to enhance the wild multiplier. If successful, the Caesar Wild multiplier will increment by +4 per spin instead of +2, but you will lose the whole bonus round if you lose the gamble. The gamble plays out on a wheel of fortune, and you have a 50% chance of success.

Roamin' Romans UltraNudge slot comes with a Bonus Boost feature, and you can turn this feature on or off between any base game spin. Keeping it on means you pay 50 % extra per spin, but the benefit is that your bonus round chances are doubled.

The Bonus Buy Menu is available in some jurisdictions, but not in the UK for sure. If eligible, you can pay 100x your stake for 10 free spins, or 300x your stake for the Super version of the bonus round.

This gives you 15 free spins where the Caesar Wild multiplier starts at x4 and increments by +4 per move.

You get a rather uneventful taste of the base game, and then we purchase the super bonus round at 0:40 into the 2:41-minute highlights video. The feature plays out for the remainder of the video, and you can see for yourself how we fared by hitting the play button below.

Review Summary

We have seen the UltraNudge system in multiple releases by now, but it has yet to take off and become a mainstream success. Roamin' Romans UltraNudge looks like a lighthearted ancient Rome parody slot, which it is judging only by the surface. Look a little deeper, however, and there is a pretty serious gambling machine underneath it all. The feminized Caesar is somewhat of an unusual touch, and the visual presentation is admittedly charming in a corky kind of way.

Wild wins trigger the UltraNudge feature in the base game, giving you indefinite winning streaks. The Caesar Wild even more so, of course, since he turns into a walking wild with an increasing win multiplier.

Gambling to get the super version of the bonus round is tempting, at least if you’ve tried both versions, as we got a lot more expanded Caesar Wild action there. This might be a coincidence, of course, but it didn’t feel like it. Either way, having +4 added to the wild multiplier each time makes a big difference, and this is how you’re most likely to close in on the 8,569x potential.

Pros

• UltraNudge™ triggers from base game wild wins
• Walking Caesar Wilds w/ increasing multiplier
• FS w/ non-resetting Caesar Wild multiplier
• Caesar Wilds may also expand to cover full reels
• Win up to 8,569x your stake

Cons

• Beware of adjustable RTP ranges
