Razor Ways Slot (Push Gaming)

The Razor Ways slot is played on a 6x6 grid, and it has 729 to 46,656 ways. Landing 3 or more matching symbols from left to right on adjacent reels will lead to a winning combination. The winning symbols need to start from the leftmost reel. 

Bets for this game start at 10p and go up to £100. You can adjust your bet amount using the coin symbol. Non-UK players can utilise the autoplay and spin speed functionalities.

The RTP rate is 96.36%, which is nicely above the online average of 96%. However, a rate of 94.32% is also available to operators, so it’s best to look around.

You’ll find a volatility rating of 'medium to high' and a maximum win of 25,000 x the bet.

- Your Bingo Guide 👍

Many bingo players miss out on better rooms, smarter bonuses, and a more enjoyable experience, simply because they don’t know where to look. I’m here to change that.

I’ve worked in the online gambling industry for over 17 years, including time with leading brands like Gala Bingo and Ladbrokes Coral. I’ve seen how offers are structured, how platforms differ, and how players can get much more value when they know what to look for.

Since joining OLBG in 2014, I’ve helped shape our bingo and slots content, writing reviews, highlighting hidden gems, and helping players avoid the common traps. As a passionate player myself, I always look at sites from the player’s perspective, not just the brand’s.

I’m not here to push promotions, I’m here to help you find the right room, the right offer, and the right place to play for you.

“Bingo should be fun and rewarding, and with my guidance, it can be both.”

Playing the game for the first time, the high-octane music hits you like a ton of bricks and sets the scene for this high-speed game.

The underwater setting in the Razor Ways slot is darker and murkier than previous titles, diving much deeper beneath the surface, fitting for a shark of this massive size. In the background, you can see marine life and other sharks propelling themselves through the water.

Trigger the Free Spins bonus, and the scene shifts to a green underwater world filled with plant life and jellyfish, with the music intensifying. Every big win shakes the screen dramatically for this energetic slot game.

The highest-value symbol of the grid is the orange shark. Here is a list of all of the symbols that can appear on the grid and what their values are:

• Orange shark: 3 = 0.50, 4 = 1.00, 5 = 2.50 and 6 = 5.00 x the bet
• Purple shark: 3 = 0.50,4 = 1.00, 5 = 2.00 and 6 = 3.00 x the bet
• Green shark: 3 = 0.40, 4 = 0.80, 5 = 1.50 and 6 = 2.50 x the bet
• Blue shark: 3 = 0.40, 4 = 0.80, 5= 1.50 and 6 = 2.50 x the bet
• Helmut: 3 = 0.20, 4 = 0.40, 5 = 0.60 and 6 = 1.00 x the bet
• Flippers: 3= 0.20, 4 = 0.40, 5 = 0.60 and 6 = 1.00 x the bet
• Gauge: 3 = 0.20, 4 = 0.40, 5= 0.60 and 6 = 1.00 x the bet
• Orange, Purple, Green & Blue Starfish: 3 = 0.10, 4 = 0.20, 5 = 0.30, 6 = 0.50 x the bet
• Wild: substitutes for all other paying symbols, except from the Mystery, Scatter and Instant Prize symbols
• Scatter: Landing 3+ triggers the Free Spins bonus round 

Razor Ways Mobile

Like most modern-day slot games, Razor Ways looks superb whichever device you use. The HTML5 technology ensures that the game plays well on all Android and iOS devices. Tablets and desktop devices also operate well. For desktop the 1920 x 1280 px (3:2) dimensions work the best.

Razor Ways is teeming with bonus features - there are 9 to be exact! So let’s take a look at them right now:

Cascades

When a win occurs, the winning symbols disappear from the grid, and new symbols drop from above. This keeps repeating until there are no more winning combinations. Therefore, each new cascade brings new opportunities for a win.

Expanding Rows

The Razor Ways game includes 3 rows at the bottom of the grid and 3 locked rows at the top of the grid that can be unlocked. When a cascade or an Instant Prize win occurs, the grid expands by 1 row. At the start of each new game round the reel set resets to the initial state.

Mystery Symbols

Green and blue seaweeds depict these symbols that can land anywhere in the base game and the Free Spins feature. The available prizes are:

• Paying symbols
• Wild symbols
• Expanding Wild symbols
• Converter into Wild symbols
• Golden Shark symbols

New Mystery symbols on the active row will reveal prizes that are different from the ones revealed in the initial spin sequence unless Golden Shark symbols are revealed.

Free Spins

Landing 3 or more Scatters in the base game or during the Razor Reveal feature triggers the Free Spins feature:

• 3 Scatters: awards 6 free spins on a 3x6 grid with a 1x multiplier
• 4 Scatters: awards  8 free spins on a 4x6 grid with a 3x multiplier
• 5 Scatters: awards 10 free spins on a 5x6 grid with a 5x multiplier
• 6 Scatters: awards 10 free spins on a 6x6 grid with a 10x multiplier
  
  

During the Free Spins feature, Glowing Mystery symbols may land. They are the same as the regular Mystery symbols, although each Glowing Mystery symbol that lands fills the Total Multiplier Level meter, which you can see next to the grid.

You need 5 symbols to reach the next level. Progressing levels increases the total multiplier and opens up the gaming grid for you.

Also, you receive 4 extra free spins for reaching level 2, 3 extra free spins for reaching level 3, and 2 extra free spins for reaching level 4.

Expanding Wild

Mystery symbols can reveal Expanding Wilds, or alternatively, they can just land on the reels. All positions on the grid which are covered by an Expanding Wild will then become a wild symbol. During the base game, the Expanding Wild symbol expands to cover the unlocked rows. When they land during the Free Spins round, it unlocks rows and expands to cover the entire reel. Expand Wilds can have a multiplier between 2x and 5x. 

Converter Into Wild Symbol

This golden-coloured wild symbol can be revealed by Mystery symbols, or they can land on the reels. Once they land, the Converter symbol spins through the paying symbols that are on the unlocked rows of the current game round. When a Paying Symbol lands, all Paying Symbols of the same type will be converted into Wilds, including the Convertor symbol.

Razor Reveal Feature

Landing Mystery symbols on at least 3 consecutive reels or randomly triggers this feature. During this feature, you can win the following:

• Instant Prizes: bet multipliers between 1x and 5,000x the bet
• Multipler symbols: Increases the values of Instant Prizes and Collctor symbols with options of 2x, 3x, 5x and 10x.
• Collectors: gathers Instant Prize and other Collect symbol values.
• Converors: transforms any instances of the paying symbol type that land inside of it into a Golden Shark symbol.
• Row Unlocker: This is only available with the BOnus Buy feature, and it unlocks a new row with the empty position spinning through all possible prizes afterwards.

Bonus Buy

If you’re outside of the UK, you can use of the Bonus Buy feature, which for this game, has several options:

Push Bet

There are 3 Push Bet options which increase your chances of winning. Here are the options and the costs:

The Razor Series has been a massive success, so it's no surprise Push Gaming released a third game. The original Razor Shark, launched in 2019, boasted a 50,000x max win and 96.70% RTP. The 2023 Razor Returns followed with a 96.55% RTP and 100,000x max win.

Razor Ways has a lower RTP of 96.36% and a 25,000x max win but remains a fantastic game. Switching from the paylines to a ways model has been a resounding success, and with 9 features, there's something for everyone. The Expanding Row feature looks great, and it encourages you to unlock the grid.

The Razor Reveal feature is still there and this offers up various prizes, including bet multiplier Instant Prizes up to 10x and Collector and Convertors symbols. The Multiplier Level meter in the Free Spins bonus round is easy to follow and can bring in some decent wins as you climb higher up the meter.

Some players might be worried that the Nudge and Reveal feature being removed would be an issue, but in fact, it’s not, due to the other features being up for grabs.

The artwork has always been excellent for this series, but this game is darker and almost suits the scary shark theme much better.

Push Gaming treat some stunning slot games, you can read more about them in this  OLBG guide to the best Push Gaming slots.  

Push Gaming consistently delivers incredible slots, and Razor Ways is no exception. As a fan of the first two Razor games, I can confidently add this one to the ‘hit’ list. It's packed with fun and is sure to be popular, so it gets a 4.8 out of 5 score.

I’ve been working in the online gambling industry for over 20 years and seen it all! I’ve reviewed more than 10,000 slot games along the way. I’ve worked with casino operators, software providers, and affiliates.

Slots can be fun, but they can also be confusing.
With so many games out there, it’s easy to end up with poor RTPs, outdated mechanics, or bonus rounds that don’t deliver. That’s why I focus on reviewing games honestly, breaking down what actually matters, and helping players find the right slot for their style.

I don’t promote hype, just the best sites to play your favourite games.
I guide players to the sites that are worth their time, whether you love big volatility or strong bonus features.

My goal is simple: make sure you don’t waste time or money on second-rate slots.
