Cash Truck 3 Turbo Slot Review

The Cash Truck 3 slot is packed with plenty of exciting and entertaining bonuses which are examined in more detail within the following sections.

Tumbling and Expanding Reels

In Cash Truck 3 Turbo, when a winning combination is formed, all winning symbols are removed from the play area, and all remaining symbols are relocated to the lowest available place on their respective reels. New symbols will then appear from above to fill any leftover gaps. Tumbling Reels continue until no fresh winners are created.

The Expanding reels work in conjunction with the Tumbling reels. You will notice at first that the reels have 5 columns and 4 rows, with three locked rows found above them. Each of these rows is divided into five symbols, resulting in 15 locked locations. Every tumble that results in a winning combination unlocks three positions in the play area, revealing the symbols that were locked away and increasing the number of ways to win.

Big Wild and Second Chance Feature

Once the entire grid is unlocked and all cascades have been finished and reviewed, a 3x3 Big Wild will be placed in the centre of the board, allowing the player to trigger a new winning sequence.

Second Chance is activated when two scatters appear on the board and all tumbles have concluded. The feature retains the bonus symbols while clearing the remainder of the reels, introducing fresh symbols for a chance to trigger the bonus round.

Gamble Game

Three or more scatters trigger the Cash Truck 3 Turbo bonus minigame, with each scatter after the third adding an Expander symbol. Before beginning the bonus, players can choose to play the minigame to win more starting Expander symbols. This feature is completely optional and if you are unsuccessful you will forfeit your access to the free spins bonus and will be returned to the base game.

Truck Raider Bonus

Quickspin's Cash Truck 3 Turbo slot game has the renowned Truck Raider bonus that put the first two Cash Truck games on the map. Using ten unique symbols the minigame begins with three respins across a grid with four open and three locked rows. Each new symbol that lands resets the counter, and special symbols with large multipliers appear beneath the locked-away top-row glass.

Truck Raider is a multiplier collect bonus with ten possible symbols to land. During the Bonus Game, only cash or special symbols may land. Here is a rundown of what each special symbol can achieve:

• Cash Symbol - increases the win counter by its displayed value upon landing.
• Grabber Symbol - When a Grabber lands, it adds the value of all other symbols in the unlocked play area to its own.
• Doubler Symbol - Doubles its worth each time the spin counter is reset to 3.
• Zapper Symbol - Doubles the value of all symbols that are horizontally, vertically, or diagonally attached to it upon landing.
• Booster Symbol - Upon landing, the booster increases all other symbols in the unlocked play area by its displayed value.
• Expander Symbol - Unlocks three randomly selected spots from the locked area.
• Turbo Grabber -  When a new symbol lands, it adds the value of all existing symbols on the unlocked play area to its own value. This will continue for the rest of the bonus when new symbols land.
• Turbo Zapper -  Doubles the value of all symbols adjacent to it. This will continue for the rest of the bonus when new symbols land.
• Turbo Booster - Adds its value to all other symbols in the unlocked play area upon landing, as well as on each subsequent spin where a new symbol lands.
• Upgrade - When it lands, it upgrades all symbols that are horizontally, vertically, or diagonally related to it, transforming cash symbols into Grabbers or Boosters, and Grabbers, Zappers, or Boosters into their Turbo versions.

Any symbols that land remain in place during the Bonus Game, unless they are removed by another feature.

In the Bonus Game, all symbols' values are displayed as a times bet multiplier. The total win thus far is shown above the reels and is awarded when the Bonus Game ends.

Buy Feature (Non-UK)

Players who want to avoid waiting and who are based outside of the UK can use the Cash Truck 3 Turbo Bonus Buy. It offers two price options: 75x and 375x the wager. In exchange, the following spin will produce 3 to 5, or 5 guaranteed scatters, to trigger the bonus feature.

The Cash Truck 3 Turbo slot is yet another exciting instalment in the Cash Truck series which I can see continuing to become bigger and better with more instalments; hopefully with the addition of even more storyline and adventure. The theme of this slot is certainly unique and I always love it when a developer opts to create a unique lead character, and Pragmatics’ creation Max Turbo certainly stands out in a world of adventure games dominated by the likes of Rich Wilde and Robert Hunter.

The unique reel configuration and tumbling reels feel like a fusion of Megaways and Cluster Pays game systems; two of the most popular online slot gameplay elements right now giving players the best of both worlds and a unique system to boot. 

The RTP of the slot is fair at 96.06%, and though high volatility, the betting range is broad enough to include most players. The standout features are without a doubt the jaw-dropping 40,000x top prize, and the insane amount of bonus features, with the popular Raider Bonus feature iconic to the previous titles making a grand return complete with 10 special symbols. I can also imagine that the handy little second chance feature will become pretty useful when playing. 

Overall, the Cash Truck 3 Turbo slot is impressive, and while I would like a little more storytelling to immerse myself in, everything from the reel structure, the math model, the visual presentation, and the bonus features are utterly top-notch. Therefore I rate the Cash Truck 3 Turbo slot a strong score of 8/10.
