Grand Junction: Mountain Express Review

After the mega-successful Grand Junction slots launched in 2022, Playtech is about to continue the series in 2023 with a 4th sequel scheduled for the end of April. Grand Junction: Mountain Express comes with brilliant graphics, familiar railway tunes and sounds, and flawless animations. Like the others, the title is 100% compatible with mobile devices.

Playtech didn't make many changes in the mechanics, providing a classic grid of 5 reels and 3 rows. The 50 fixed winning lines pay from left to right on adjacent reels. Each winning combination must start from the 1st reel except for scatters which pay independently from any position on the board.

The machine comes with an Autoplay feature and Turbo Spin mode for an even smoother experience. Players will find 10 basic symbols, a wild Locomotive, substituting for them, and a Tunnel scatter. The low-valued characters (A to 9) can land as Grand Junction symbols as well, triggering the two-tiered feature!

Grand Junction: Mountain Express Slot Payouts & Key Features

The Grand Junction: Mountain Express RTP rate is ranging, which means that more than one version will be released.

The most common variant will have a solid potential - 96.51%, but always check the coefficient before staking real money. The medium volatility levels are preferred by experienced players familiar with most slot strategies.

Each spin is played with 50 fixed paylines and a 10-coin total bet between £0.10 and £500. The coin value starts from £0.01 and ends at £50. The Mini, Minor, Major, and Grand jackpots are bet-dependent and pay x20, x100, x500, and x2,000, respectively. The maximum win can reach £1,000,000!

Scatters pay 1x, 10x, and 50x the total bet, while the other payouts are coin value multipliers.

The wilds Locomotives and highest-paying regular symbol Train Driver award x2, x10, and x40. Vacuum Gauge, Luggage Suitcase, and Train Tickets pay up to x25, x20, and x15, while the low-valued characters - no more than x10.

Players can trigger Free Spins by landing 3, 4, or 5 Tunnel scatters in view. They will receive 11 free games during which the Train Driver and Locomotive symbols may be stacked. Three or more scatters will award 11 more free spins, and the Grand Junction bonus round can also be activated!

The Grand Junction feature activates with 5 or more Grand Junction bonus symbols in view. It consists of two different minigames - Hold & Spin and Bonus Game. It all started with a new set of reels and 9 free spins. Coins with prizes of 1x, 2x, 3x, and 5x the total bet may land, together with Locomotives.

Three, four, five, or six Locomotives at the end of Hold & Spin activate the Mini, Minor, Major, or Grand Bonus Game, respectively. Any Conductor symbol during Hold & Spin awards 3 additional free spins.

The Grand Junction Bonus Game awards one of the four jackpots in full or partially.

Review Summary

The Grand Junction: Mountain Express slot is loaded with the same features that made the previous three series sequels so successful but slightly changed. The payout potential is higher in our opinion, and the visuals are better than ever. However, the base game is still missing reel modifiers, which is a pity.

Nevertheless, we love the dynamics Playtech has brought to this game and recommend it to everyone searching for a new online slot challenge. We have a full demo already on our website, although the official release will be after some time. That's ideal for you to test different strategies and prepare yourself for the real adventure!
