Milkshake XXXtreme Review
Within the past year, NetEnt has definitely gone for cuter visuals with friendlier-looking slots with Cornelius and Bee Hive Bonanza to name just a few. This trend seems to be continuing with NetEnt's Milkshake XXXtreme.
As the name suggests, Milkshake XXXtreme is a food slot that plays on a grid of 6x6 with delicious visuals filled with tasty-looking milkshakes. Thankfully, there are multipliers and additional features throughout to make the experience quite entertaining.
Design
You'll immediately be blown away by the colourful visuals in Milkshake XXXtreme. As soon as the slot opens up, you'll find vibrant pinks, greens, yellows, purples and blues. It's basically the entire rainbow on the reels.
Next to the reels, there is always a milkshake glass that changes colour depending on what is triggered. Naturally, the background of the slot contains pink and yellow sparkles throughout to give it a magical feel.
There's an upbeat and funky baseline throughout the slot which adds to the excitement. The slot in general definitely feels quite whimsical and enticing. However, it's worth pointing out that if you dislike colourful slots, then this may be a little too overwhelming for you.
Gameplay
If you are familiar with grid slots, then you'll know that you do not line up paylines but match up symbol clusters instead. The same is with Milkshake XXXtreme which needs 8 matching symbols to trigger a win and the other features.
Sadly, there isn't a huge amount in this slot with the two main features being 'milkshake' and 'XXXtreme Spins'. These are essentially multipliers and an extra bet feature to award extra wilds and milkshakes.
It's nothing too complicated and slot players looking for feature-heavy slots should perhaps stay away from this one. We definitely recommend NetEnt's Superstars for players looking for slots filled with unique and innovative features.
Win Potential
Most seasoned slot players will be surprised to find out that Milkshake XXXtreme has a low to medium volatility level. A majority of online slots contain high volatility, so it's refreshing to see a less volatile slot.
The maximum win for this slot is 7,100x the stake which is pretty high for a slot with this volatility. It's unknown what the exact statistic is for triggering the maximum win but we can assure you it's low. However, it's good to have the option to do this.
Finally, the RTP for this slot is 96.06% which is over the average standard and one that we can easily recommend to players.
Our Verdict
Milkshake XXXtreme has a fascinating concept and definitely looks the part - but it feels like there was something missing throughout. Perhaps, it was the lack of definitive free spins or additional features.
Despite this, the overall game is simple to play but can be entertaining as well. We suspect this slot will appeal to enthusiasts looking for something that's straightforward to play and that they can have hours of fun with.
