Neon Staxx pokie
In June 2016, NetEnt launched the Neon Staxx pokie. 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 the Neon Staxx pokie for free in the demo on 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 win.

Personal tester's opinion about Neon Staxx pokie
Neon Staxx has massive winning potential if the wild symbol falls as stacked during the free spins feature. Also, you can hit a big winning with a top stacked symbol during usual spins or the free spins feature. This pokie is an old machine and is no longer popular among 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 would not recommend it for fulfilling the wagering requirements (bonus hunters) as the wagering rating is 4.91 out of 10.
Review and recommendations from the testing team
Neon Staxx is not visually appealing, despite its rather exciting design and concept.
- 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 display a full screen of only minimally paid symbols (Q, A), but this couldn't be repeated with the most expensive symbols.
- Neon Staxx is quite bad at maintaining balance, either by taking a lot from it or increasing it, thanks to several full screens. Payouts for other combinations do not help maintain a very good balance.
- The free spins feature is triggered at a very high frequency, in a series of 2-3 spins, 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, it 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 triggering the bonus does not guarantee a significant win.
Hidden parameters and settings of the pokie (data from testing)
- The frequency of triggering the free spins bonus feature is statistically every 147th spin (0,68%). This number is in the middle of Netent's pokies line.
- The probability of a hit (any winning) is 28,12%.
- The distribution of the winnings is 76% in the usual spins and 24% in the bonus feature.
- The maximum payout during the tests was 400x. This number is average for an online slot with 6,24 volatility.
- The average winning from the bonus feature was 33x.
- Volatility is 6,24 out of 20 (average). The potential of winning splits between usual spins and the free spins feature. During usual spins, the player can get the full screen of wild symbols. During the free spins feature, there is a possibility to catch the wild symbol as a "staked" symbol.
- Cycle length is average.
- The rating for the wagering is 4,91 out of 10.
- RTP of 96.9% allows getting a positive mathematical expectation of winning at the casino.
Description of the pokie
The unusual design of the pokie strikes immediately. And it is not just colour, but also the 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 complements the overall neon panorama.

How to win at Neon Staxx pokie? (conclusion)
Our main recommendation for winning at pokies is to try the demo mode before depositing money. We generally do not recommend playing this pokie for real money. If you decide to play it, however, and luck is not on your side, it's better to try changing the bet and denomination. This is not a very popular machine, so it is essential to choose a large and reputable online casino where a larger prize pool can be accumulated more easily. Also, we do not advise the bonus "hunters" to try to fulfil the bonus requirements.
