Neon Staxx pokie
On June 2016 Neon Staxx pokie was launched by Netent. Stacked symbols on all reels, the free spins feature with added random symbol and RTP (return to the player percentage) on 96.9%. You can play for free Neon Staxx pokie in the demo on the top of this page. Below you will find the hidden data (volatility, wagering rating, the probability of triggering the free spins feature and testers opinion). Please note, that this pokie is not popular among punters. That fact badly influences the creation of the prize pool for the big winning.
Personal testers opinion about Neon Staxx pokie
Neon Staxx has massive winning potential if wild symbol will fall as stacked during the free spins feature. Also, you can hit a big winning with top stacked symbol during usual spins or the free spins feature. This pokie is an old machine and not popular among the players nowadays. My maximum winning during testing was 400x. The probability of a hit in any spin is equal to 28.12%. If we talk about the bonus feature, it triggers every 147th spin (0.68%). I will not recommend it to fulfil the wagering requirements (bonus hunters) as the wagering rating is 4.91 of 10.
Review and recommendations from the testing team
Neon Staxx is not pleasing to the eye, in spite of its rather exciting design and idea.
- In theory, the pokie has good potential and is capable of triggering full-screen symbols, including top ones. It often shows the passing lines of one symbol and even puts them in the first 2-3 reels. It creates a feeling that a big win is very close, but in practice, the pokie does not give them in the remaining reels. During testing, it was possible to get a full screen of only minimally paid symbols (Q, A), and it can't repeat this with the most expensive symbols.
- Neon Staxx is quite bad at keeping the balance, either by taking a lot from it or by increasing it, thanks to several full screens. Payouts for other combinations do not help to keep the balance very good.
- Free spins feature is triggered in very high frequency, in a series of 2-3 and within short intervals. The intervals between the series can be more than 200 spins.
- A bonus symbol is triggered in the free spins feature, and according to the idea that the provider intended to put in the pokie, should appear more frequently. In practice, during testing, a good combination was never triggered for more than 10 free spins features with the triggering of various bonus symbols, and the average winnings that were triggered were from 20x to 60x bets, which did not compensate for the loss in balance in the main game. Of course, the slot gives good combinations during the bonus feature, but unlike other pokies, where the main win takes place in the bonus feature, this pokie can give a good combination during the main game as well.
- Please note, that the triggering of the bonus does not guarantee a big win.
Hidden parameters and settings of the pokie (data from testing)

Description of the pokie
The unusual design of the pokie strikes immediately. And it is not just colour, but also playing field is tilted to a certain degree. To such spinning, it is necessary to get used to, because from time to time it begins to seem that the symbols spin in the opposite direction. The musical accompaniment is also quite remarkable and perfectly fits into the whole neon panorama.

How to win at Neon Staxx pokie? (conclusion)
Our main recommendation on how to win when playing pokies is to try the demo mode before depositing money. We generally do not recommend this pokie for real money play. If you decide to play it, however, and the luck is not with you, better try changing the bet and the denomination. This is not a very popular machine, so it is important to choose a big and famous online casino where a larger prize pool can be collected easier. Also, we do not advise the bonus "hunters" to try to fulfil the bonus requirements.
