Aztec Twist

Aztec Twist is a great-looking slot game from Hacksaw Gaming with a very different setup. A 5x8 reel set with reels that twist instead of spinning, the Aztec Twist slot is a unique gaming experience for players. Add in a cluster pays mechanic and features including locking symbols, free spins, and potentially massive multipliers, and there’s a lot to love about the Aztec Twist online slot machine.

Aztec Twist has intriguing features present in the base game. Alongside the ever-popular cluster pays mechanic, winning clusters of five symbols or more will lock to the reels for the subsequent spin.

The big win potential is part of the free spins feature, thanks to a special symbol that can give larger multipliers.

Three scatter symbols will trigger the free spins feature. You will be given eight spins here, winning combinations will not lock like they do in the base game, but there is a big added bonus here in the shape of the Multiplier Cylinders.

During the free spins feature, you will see two cylinders above the reels, one with a number and the other with a multiplier. There is a large golden mask behind the entire reel set. The cylinders will activate if this mask is revealed on any row during the free spins. The multiplier cylinder will start on 10x while the other will spin to reveal a number between 1 and 10. The selected number will be multiplied by 10x for a payout. Trigger this bonus again, and the multiplier will rise to 20x, then 30x, all the way up to 500x for a max payout of 5,000x bet from this feature.

During the base game, if a winning cluster of five or more symbols is formed, it will lock to the reels for the next spin. If new symbols are added to the cluster on the next spin, these will also lock in place, and a multiplier of between 2x and 5x will be added to the win. This will continue until no new symbols are added to the cluster.

Hacksaw Gaming is known for excellent design work, and Aztec Twist is no different. The unique look of the reels is brought to life by bold, Aztec-themed artwork and a moody, drum-heavy soundtrack.

A design approach with lots of colours brings the slot to life, with an attractive jungle scene playing the backdrop to the reels.

Hacksaw Gaming has a selection of original, attractive, and entertaining slots to its name. Top titles to check out from the developer include Miami Multiplier and Stack’em.

If the Aztec theme floats your boat, then there is no shortage of excellent slots from other developers you can try. Some picks of the best slots with this theme are Iron Dog Studio’s Aztec Wilds, Aztec Gems Deluxe from Pragmatic Play, and Aztec Falls by Northern Lights.

A cluster of five adjacent symbols or more will trigger a win when playing the Aztec Twist slot. There are only two types of symbol, the lower value gems and the higher value masks, there are five of each symbol, and the payouts are the same in the two categories.

Next to the spin button, you will see two arrows. Use these to set your bet per play amount from £0.20 to £100.00. Once your stake is set, press the spin button to rotate the reels and play.
