Theme - The Devil
The game is fronted by Satan himself and he features heavily during the gaming experience. The background imagery in the bonus game is kooky rather than scary, you're brought into Mr Lucy's office which is decorated with candles and an odd-looking four-eyed cat. There are amusing graphics such as when flipping between the base and bonus games you see a contract waiting to be signed by Mr Lucy's unwitting victims...I mean clients.
On the grid, you'll see some of his clients which in order of highest value first are a man wearing lots of gold (who looks a lot like the human version of Mr Lucy), a woman singing, a man smoking a cigar, a male gamer and a woman taking a selfie. These are then followed by the standard symbols of A, K, Q, J and 10.
Reels & Paylines
Due to the Devil's Crossroad setup there are not traditional reels and paylines - instead there is a grid divided into four sections.
RTP
You've probably seen RTP written on slot sites and this stands for return to player which is a theoretical figure telling you what percentage of your stakes will be returned over the long run. Nowadays you should expect to see around 96%. The Devil's Crossroad slot game comes in ever-so-slightly above at 96.06%.
Nolimit City like most providers, uses this RTP as a default amount so if you shop around you'll discover different RTP rates across various sites. We've saved you some time and checked a few rates at some of the top UK online casinos and added them to the table below.
RTP is just one factor to think about when deciding which site to play at. Other factors to consider include the amount of games, customer service support, options for payment choices and welcome bonuses and deals. You can read about all of these factors plus more when you read our OLBG casino reviews.

Free Spins
If you land 4 Scatters you'll enter the Redemption Spins bonus round. The bonus feature starts with 3 spins and will reset to 3 spins every time a coin lands in the reel area. This round is all about the coins and all coin values are valued as times the active bet. When a column is filled with coins a feature will be awarded to you for that column on each following spin. The feature affects coins on the column it is on and here is a breakdown of the features:
- Gluttony - add its value to all coins value.
- Wrath - multiplies the value of a randomly selected coin on its row/column.
- Lust - progresses a step towards upgrading Redemption Spins.
- Greed - it selects a random coin from its row/column which collects all the coin values from its column/row respectively.
- Envy - Turns a randomly selected coin’s value into a copy of the highest current coin value in the entire reel area.
- Pride - It selects a random coin from its row/column and adds its value to all other coins on its column/row respectively.
Redemption Spins can be upgraded in two ways - either by collecting 4 levels in the upgrade bar or when all 4 Scatter lands next to center position in the main game. The upgrade bar collects 1 level either for each Lust feature triggered or for each Scatter landing next to the center position in the main game. Upgraded Redemption Spins triggers a feature for its row in addition to column. The Devil coin is a special coin that can land during Redemption Spins and unlocks feature of it’s column. If Redemption Spins is upgraded then it also triggers a feature for it’s row.
Jackpot
Like most modern-day slot games, Devil's Croossroad doesn't have a jackpot element. If jackpots are your thing you should visit our page with the best jackpot slot games.
Play Experience & First Impressions
I liked the look of the reel area of the Devil's Crossroad - as mentioned already, it's divided into four cross sections and it mixes play up when a symbol lands next to the centre and morphs into a Wild. The Redemption Spins bonus round was fun once I understood the coin mechanic, glow-up progress meter and heart. Basically, you can be upgraded once you either collect 4 levels in the progress bar or land 3 Scatters in the centre position.
The Scatter symbol - which is depicted by what else but a pentagon - appears in the centre row/column of their cross-section and was a fun feature. Here, when a Scatter appears next to the centre position, the remaining symbols in its cross-section become inactive and symbols of the same type are removed from the other cross-sections. Removed symbols can no longer appear for the remaining drops. Each symbol removed this way increases its cross-section multiplier by 1 which can add up.
The Cross Multiplier symbol is one to look out for too. When a win occurs then the same kind of symbol will be removed from the other cross sections if they are not a part of the win. Each symbol removed this way increases its cross-section multiplier by 1. Wins are multiplied by their respective cross-section multiplier.
