Relive the 1980’s on the neon-retro slot from Snowborn Games powered by Microgaming’s Quickfire platform. Miami Glow is taking you to the fabled city on the Atlantic coast in a brightly neon-coloured style that many will remember from the immensely popular TV series. Just as the crime series, it is action-packed with random multipliers, sticky wild respins and a volatile Glow Bonus spin with stacked wilds that can lead to wins of up to 5,000 times your bet.

Slot Details

Miami Glow is a video slot with five reels, three rows and 10 fixed pay lines Wins are awarded for three to five matching symbols on a line from left to right only. Available on desktop, mobile and tablets, the bet size range from 0.20 to 25 credits per spin. The game has medium to high volatility with an RTP of 96.06% and an average hit rate of 22.78%.

The visuals on Miami Glow are not as intriguing and elaborate as on The Vault but they do well to convey that neon-era feeling from the 1980s. Flashing pay symbols on a frameless game window light up a palm tree background while triggering the feature will see the top and bottom bars start glowing in, well, neon colours. The electronic soundtrack reminds us of the early video games that began their meteoric rise in the 1980s.

All pay symbols appear as animated neon lights, starting at the low end with the card suits – clubs, diamonds, hearts and spades. Hit five on a line to win 2x to 3x your stake. They are followed by a red kiss, a purple flamingo with a palm tree, a cocktail glass and a diamond, awarding 5x to 25x your bet for a single five of a kind. The game has two wilds, the standard wild in green colours as well as a sticky wild in pink colours, each substituting for regular symbols and yielding 25x your stake when five land on a line. A Glow icon acts as the scatter, appearing on reels one, three and five only.

Miami Glow Slot Features

We don’t know if Miami Vice served as inspiration for the design team but they sure went to great length to make their slot as action-packed as the TV series. Three different modifiers and features will keep you on your toes as they have a relatively high hit rate and a tantalizing win potential of up to 5,000 times your bet.

We’ll start off with the Random Win Multiplier with the values displayed to the side of the game window (top for mobile players). The bar can randomly light up at the start of any spin in the base game and bonus spin to award an x2, x3, x5 or x10 multiplier that will be applied to the entire win from the current spin.

Snowborn Games - Miami Glow Sticky Wilds

Tensions are rising when you hit at least one sticky wild anywhere on the reels as it will trigger the Sticky Wild Respin feature. All triggering wilds are locked in place and initially one respin awarded. Land more sticky wilds and the process is repeated with wins paid after each free spin. Plus any activated win multiplier in the triggering spin will be kept throughout the feature. It will end when no further sticky wilds appear after a respin or the entire screen is filled with wilds. Having an x10 multiplier active and a full screen will pay a hefty 2,500 times your bet on top of all wins you accumulated by getting there.

Usually, when we read about a free spin feature we assume it will include a good number of spins like 8, 10 or 15. Well, think again as on Miami Glow you’ll get 1, in words one, Glow Bonus Spin when you land Glow scatters on reels one, three and five. While that sounds rather disappointing, the single spin can pack quite a punch as long stacks of wilds are added to the reels, increasing the odds to land a full screen of wilds. Without any multipliers that would yield a respectable 250x bet.

Final Verdict

It remains to be seen whether Miami Glow will be as well received by the casino community as its older sibling The Vault. I like the concept with multiple features, making sure that the big win potential is spread out more evenly instead of being concentrated in a single bonus round. The high hit rate of the features only further improves the playability. Well worth to give it a few spins in your next slotting session.
