Rad Maxx Slot (Hacksaw Gaming)

The Rad Maxx slot is played on 5 reels, 5 rows and 76 paylines. Using the 360 mechanic, winning combinations can be made from symbols in different directions (more on this below). With most symbols, you need 3, 4 or 5 matching symbols in the stated direction, on consecutive reels or rows, in any position.

All Hacksaw slots have a bet range from as little as 10p per spin to as much as £5 a spin (as per the new regulations that came into effect in April 2025). To change your bet, use the up and down arrows accordingly. Players outside the UK can opt for Autoplay as well as Turbo and Super Turbo modes.

The Rad Maxx RTP rate is 96.32% which is higher than the standard of around 97%. You may also find a 94.42% and 92.4% RTP version used at your chosen site: open the Paytable to see which return rate you’re playing with. As always at OLBG, the Rad Maxx demo above has the highest setting.

Medium to high volatility (4/5), the hit frequency rate is high at 40.69%: this means a win will land every 2.45 spins on average. Finally, the Rad Maxx slot game offers 12,500 times bet max wins which can be won in the base game and all bonus features. There is no max win probability info provided.

With an animal theme, the Rad Maxx slot is a classic cat-and-mouse game. The storyline revolves around Maxx (who owns the streets) who is ready to take Ro$$ for everything he’s got. Set in a city back alley, the graphics will remind you of other RIP City which features the same characters.  

Fast-paced and high-energy, this monochrome game follows other Hacksaw Gaming slots with splashes of colour for the symbols. On the reels, you’ll come across A, K, Q, J and 10 royals. The higher-value symbols (in yellow) are represented by apple cores, pizza slices, bananas, fish bones and a mouse: the latter pays 10 times your total bet for 5 in combination.

When it comes to special symbols, Rad Maxx has a few. There are 3 wild symbols which all substitute for all symbols highlighted above. Furthermore, they all have their own special properties which are described in the bonus features section below. The other symbol of importance is the FS Scatter which is key to triggering 3 free spins features.

Rad Maxx Mobile

With Hacksaw Gaming being a mobile-first provider, all their games are compatible with mobile, tablet and desktop devices. This means you can enjoy Rad Maxx on iOS and Android smartphones with Portrait Mode deployed for a better visual experience.

The Rad Maxx slot comes with 5 bonus features. With Crazy Cat Wild multipliers up to 200x, look out for Wild Plus symbols which activate Pay Direction Arrows for payouts in multiple directions. With 3 free spins features, they offer sticky Crazy Cat Wild multipliers, Wild Plus symbols on each free spin plus more activated Pay Direction Arrows.

Crazy Cat Symbols

On the reels, there are Crazy Cat symbols which are Wild multipliers. Revealing a multiplier value between 2x and 20x, the multiplier applies when part of a winning combination. If multiple Crazy Cat symbols are part of the same win, the multiplier values multiply together first for bigger wins.

Wild Plus Symbols 

Look out for Wild Plus symbols landing as these trigger a frenzy. Activating 1 to 3 extra Pay Direction Arrows, it changes the way winning combinations pay out in a clockwise direction. Every time a Wild Plus symbol lands, your payout has the potential to give you bigger wins.

Winning combinations can be formed in multiple directions which adds excitement. However, the arrows reset with every spin.

Free Spins

The Rad Maxx slot comes with 3 free spins features. Benefitting with upgraded mechanics to take your experience to the next level, all the details are below:

Rad Maxx Slot

Rating: 3.8/5

Rad Maxx is a high-energy slot with a new mechanic that combines wild multipliers and multiple direction payouts for up to 12,500 x bet max wins.

The Rad Maxx slot follows on from RIP City as the classic cat-and-mouse game goes up a notch with a new mechanic of sorts. Different to the RotoGrid found in Twisted Lab and Strength of Hercules, the visuals have a monochrome tone with splashes of bright colour like in Wings of Horus, Slayers Inc and SixSixSix.

The difference between RotoGrid and this new mechanic is that the grid in Rad Maxx is static with Wild Plus symbols adding extra pay directions for bigger potential wins. If you add in the Crazy Cat Wild Multipliers, and you could land yourself huge payouts on every base game spin.

With 3 free spins features, they are progressively more lucrative as they come with sticky Crazy Cat symbols, a Wild Plus symbol on every free spin and all Pay Direction Arrows activated. In theory, this makes it easier to hit the 12,500 times bet max wins which sits highly amongst all Hacksaw Gaming slot games.

In summary, the Rad Maxx slot introduces a new mechanic with winning combinations paying in up to 4 different directions. Using familiar characters, I’m sure Hacksaw will deploy this mechanic in future releases and develop it further.
