TOMBSTONE RIP SLOT REVIEW
The Tombstone RIP slot created by NoLimit City comes with 5 reels with a unique 2x3x3x3x1 format, up to 108 ways to win, up to 96.08% RTP and a very high variance level. The game comes with a grim death and “hang em’ high” theme so it’s not for the faint hearted that’s for sure.
The theme is however fused with a cowboy theme as the game characters mimic characters popular in the countryside. The fusion of the death and a cowboy theme in essence means that the game suits those with a love for something a little on the dark and morbid side of life.
GAME LAYOUT
The atmosphere around the Tombstone RIP game is eerie as the background graphics depict a cemetery. A wooden tombstone head acts as the game’s reel grid.

SYMBOLS
The Tombstone RIP slot game features the following reel symbols: the El Gordo icon, Edda Star icon, Skinny Joe icon, a female character, a male character, and royal symbols.
BONUSES
- Wild: A tombstone head card icon with a WILD inscription acts as the substituting symbol. The game also does have a reel split wild represented by the axe icon inscribed REEL SPLIT. Upon landing a reel split wild, the wild together with other symbols on the reel it occupies are split into two. This, therefore, doubles the count of symbols on that reel. Tombstone RIP also does have an xSplit wild represented by the red portrait inscribed XSPLIT. The symbol only appears on the last reel and counts as two symbols. Upon landing, the xSplit wild cut all symbols onto its left side in any of the following ways:
- Cuts all three symbols in the middle row on all middle reels as well as the bottom symbol on reel 1
- Cuts all three symbols in the middle row on all middle reels as well as the top icon on reel 1
- Cuts all four icons in the bottom row
- Cuts all four icons in the top row
The xSplit wild splits even those symbols which have already been split by the reel split wild. The xSplit wild upon splitting the xNudge wild helps in doubling the xNudge wild multiplier. The only symbols which the xSplit does not split are Hang ’em high scatters which convert to reel split wilds.
- Scatter: Tombstone RIP comes with several scatter symbols. All scatters only appear on the middle three reels. Three of the scatters come in the form of the Hang ‘em icons. There is also the bounty and boothill scatters. Boothill scatters are unique in that they only land on reel 5.
- xNudge Wilds: The game comes with xNudge wilds. xNudge wilds are stacked symbols that appear anywhere on the middle three reels. When a partial xNudge wild lands, it nudges and expands to cover the entire reel. After each nudge, the wild multiplier increases by one.
- Hang ‘em High Free Spins: This feature activates when players land three of the Hang ‘em scatter symbols. An initial eight free spins are awarded when the feature activates. When the split hang ’em high scatter symbols land, they award an extra free spin. Landing the boothill scatters help players fetch 10 boothill free spins. If two hang ‘em high scatters land simultaneously, they transform into reel split wilds. If a boothill scatter lands but does not activate the boothill free spins, it triggers a respin where a cowboy symbol is guaranteed to land. All instances of the cowboy symbol that lands transform into multiplier wilds carrying multiplier values ranging from 5x to 999x. A persistent multiplier is available during this feature which increases by one each time the regular wilds are landed. The multiplier increases twofold if either the reel split wilds or xSplit wild lands. The multiplier increases by up to three when the xNudge wild lands.
- Boothill Free Spins: This feature activates when players land three hang ‘em high scatters as well as the boothill scatter. 10 free spins are awarded when the feature triggers. A persistent multiplier is available during this feature which increases by one each time the regular wilds are landed. The multiplier increases twofold if either the reel split wilds or xSplit wild lands. The multiplier increases by up to three when the xNudge wild lands. All instances of the cowboy symbol that lands on reel 5 during this feature will transform into wilds. The cowboy symbols also carry a random multiplier value ranging from 5x to 999x.
- Enhanced Bet: The enhanced bet allows players to increase their bet by 10%. The benefit of doing this is that a scatter symbol is guaranteed to land on the second reel. This in turn increases the probability of triggering either the hang ‘em high free spins or the boothill free spins.
- xRIP: The xRIP automatically triggers when a winning spin awards a payout that is below the base bet. There is no payout awarded for the xRIP.
- El Gordo’s Revenge: El Gordo’s Revenge automatically triggers when players land a win that exceeds 300 000x the bet. Once it triggers, the current game round ends and the player scoops the max payout set at 300,000x the bet.
- NoLimit Bonus: Players can gain direct access to any of the game features available in the Tombstone RIP slot game. Players just need to click the yellow star icon and pay the purchase price for the game feature they want to instantly trigger.
