We Check Out the Guaranteed Win Feature on Red Tiger’s New Slot Eagle Riches!
Videoslots Casino has added Red Tiger Gamings latest Wild West themed Eagle Riches slot, which features a new symbol swap and a guaranteed win feature courtesy of the Eagle’s shadow as it flies over the reels.
The Eagle Riches slot uses a 5×4 reel layout and comes with 40 fixed paylines, heavily stacked symbols make up the reels, with some very high paying Eagle symbols giving this slot quite a volatile nature, max wins of over 2000x stake are possible!
The main feature to look out for in the base game is the Eagle’s Shadow, randomly triggered, it flies over the reels transforming several symbols into golden tiles, these will then transform into matching symbols that are a guaranteed win, it might not be a huge win but it is guaranteed!
The bonus trigger is also slightly different to a regular slot, with 3 scatters required, but landing just 1 scatter will grant a re-spin of the reels holding the original scatter in place, so whilst you can trigger the bonus round in one spin you can also do it gradually via these re-spins.
The main bonus round is 10 free spins, with a much higher chance of the Eagle’s Shadow feature e activating, and during our playtests, we also noticed that on some spins the Eagle will fly over more than once with an increasing number of symbols being transformed!
Whilst the slot is lacking in the number of overall features this one is capable of transforming a non-winning spin into a full screen of matching symbols, but do take note the variance seems high and hit rate quite low, check out the gameplay below.

Overall Opinions
The Eagle Riches slot is a graphically stunning release from Red Tiger, whilst possibly not their most exciting offering in terms of special features the variance does seem quite high giving this slot the potential for some huge wins thanks to the Eagle’s Shadow feature that can occur multiple times in a row during the bonus game.
In our playtests we had a rollercoaster ride, close to busting out of the £1000 starting balance only to get 2 decent bonus rounds in a row taking us up back over £1000 again, so the high variance tag is definitely warranted, bonus rounds ended anywhere in the range of 20x up to 350x.
Worth a try if you are a fan of higher variance machines, and can be patient for bonus rounds, certainly not Red Tigers best slot but worth checking out still.
