The Back Nine Slot Review 2024

The Back Nine

The game of golf has a lot of fans, and those of them that also enjoy slots can now try The Back Nine, a 5 reel & 15 payline game, coming from Rival. The game's top prize is $3,750, while its features are the scatter and the wild symbol.

The game's theme is not hard to figure out at all, even if the title didn't do it for you. It's enough to give the game a look, and you will see golf related imagery everywhere. At the top of the screen you will find the green field, with the game logo and with a golf ball part of it. Look below, at the reels, and it's all green, with various images related to golf, in each case with some sort of green background. The images which are found on the reels as symbols include The Back 9 logo, the golf driver, the golf bag, a golf cart, the inside of a golf hole, the golf lady, a red flag, gold cup and the golf player.

The game has some decent sized bets available, allowing for up to $75 to be used. The maximum bet has 75 coins in it, at $0.01 to $1 each one, and with 5 per payline. The top prize is 750 times the line wager, or 3,750 coins. The cash equivalent is the same as the number of coins $3,750. You can win the big prize if you get the combination with five gold cup symbols, and if you used 5 coins on that payline during that round.

One of the bigger features of the game is the expanding wild symbol, the one that has the red flag on it. This symbol can only show up on the three reels from the middle, and when it appears it gets bigger, taking over the reel entirely. The regular symbols can be replaced with the wild, but the scatters are another matter.

One of the things that we don't see enough of in slot is skill based bonus games. Well, this slot offers us that, and it's a game of golf, which gives you a chance to win a nice prize if you get a hole in one. Depending on how many scatters were used to trigger this round, the payout will get bigger (minimum is three scatters).

Check out The Back Nine if you're a fan of this sport. The presence of a skill based golf game in it only makes it better, and there is also an expanding wild to keep things interesting.
