Rabid Randy Dark Trails NetEnt slot review with free demo

The Rabid Randy Dark Trails (2025) slot from NetEnt looks almost no different from the first part. The slot cover art looks like the same old dark forest, with a light mist drifting across the ground. And through it you can make out traps and animal skulls, and behind it all stands our old “acquaintance” – the “mad” hunter Randy).

The Rabid Randy Dark Trails video slot has a diamond-shaped reel layout (3, 4, 5, 4 and 3) with five reels. And 20 fixed paylines (left to right). At the top, to the left of the first reel, there is a “Trap Frames” counter, and to the right of the fifth reel you can see the starting multiplier x1. Which can increase after collecting “200 frames”. In this case, during the bonus game (for three retriggered FS), it will already be x2.

Unlike the first part, where the multiplier could grow from x1 to x1000, here it can only increase up to x10).

When a “Paw Print” lands, that cell gets framed in a “trap” and later becomes “sticky”, and it can also randomly turn “hot”. Then on the next spin all the “frames” and other symbols touching the “hot” one turn into “Wild” symbols… And if three “scatters” (Rabid Randy) land on reels 2, 3 and 4, the bonus round starts… In it, all “Frames” become “sticky” and are transferred to the FS grid with random values from 0.5 to 50. And the final win amount is multiplied by the above multiplier.

…If you’re lucky and all the “bonus” cells on the reels are occupied, an extra multiplier of x2 is awarded as a bonus).

There are two buyable bonus rounds in Rabid Randy Dark Trails:

1. For “regular” FS (x25) .
2. For FS with a random multiplier from x1 to x10 (x75).

The second part felt more dynamic, “Paws” dropped more often here, and in theory you can boost the starting multiplier faster

In the base game, the biggest wins were around x10 to x20. And I really wanted to see more “bears” or at least some “wild boars”).

…Only once did I luck into three “scatters” with a win close to x30. It seemed like this version was more “generous” and, with a lucky turn of events, the slot “can” keep your balance with only small drawdowns. But you shouldn’t play a long session, the math starts to take its toll) …
