DEAD, DEAD OR DEADER SLOT: OVERVIEW
Last Updated: March 3, 2025Written by Stephen Cummings
In all honesty, Dead, Dead or Deader is the dullest NoLimit City slot we have played in a long time. A lack of wins and excitement in the base game alongside disappointing free spins makes this slot extremely lackluster.
This Dead, Dead or Deader review will give you all of the information you need so that you can decide whether you would like to play this slot for real money or not.
DEAD, DEAD OR DEADER: FIRST IMPRESSIONS
NoLimit City seem to have gone back to basics regarding the layout of this slot which is played on a 3×5 grid. With good music and a cool aesthetic, we had high hopes for Dead, Dead or Deader but they were unfortunately crushed when we began playing. There is a lack of features to begin with. Yes, there is the xNudge feature but we have never really been big fans of it because more often than not it doesn’t trigger much when activated.
We were betting 20p per spin with the Nolimit booster activated to guarantee us one scatter each spin. We did manage to trigger two Dead spins bonuses, but our wins during those free spins were very small. The base game itself failed to deliver many wins too.
Overall we finished our 10 minute session with a £17 deficit. But we also finished the session very bored. My eyes were actually glazing over as I played!
DEAD, DEAD OR DEADER FEATURES
As is the norm with NoLimit City slot games, Dead, Dead or Deader has plenty of features and the usual xMechanics. We have outlined them all for you below.
WILD MULTIPLIERS
Beginning from left to right, the first Wild which lands will have a multiplier of 1x. Wilds which land on further reels will have a multiplier of 2x and so on up to a maximum of 5x. Multiple wilds on the same reel will have the same value.
SCATTER SYMBOLS
Scatters only appear on reels 2-5. Landing three scatter symbols will trigger 12 Dead Spins. Landing four scatter symbols will trigger 12 Deader Spins.
If only two scatters land in the base game, these symbols will transform into wild symbols with the usual multipliers added to them. This is a nice feature as there is something of a reward for the disappointment of narrowly missing out on bonus spins.
XNUDGE WILD
This is a stacked symbol and will only land on reels 2, 3 and 4. Landing one will always increase to full visibility and each nudge increases the win multiplier by one. After nudging to full visibility, the following scenarios can happen:
- The Hanging – The guy at the bottom of the Nudge gets hanged. This awards the player with a respin with the xNudge wlil being sticky throughout the respin.
- The Deadlock – When the repsin is over, the guy at the bottom can get an additional neck snap which doubles the multiplier and makes the xNudge sticky for another repsin.
- The Dropout – The guy at the bottom falls out and you will not get a repsin and the multiplier value reverts to its former value.
DEAD SPINS
During Dead Spins, xNudge Wilds are sticky for at least one additional repsin and the multiplier is doubled before the next spin starts. Landing a scatter on reel five will upgrade the bonus to Deader spins with an additional +2 free spins added. Free spins are triggered once in every 337 spins on average.
DEADER SPINS
The same as Dead Spins but the xNudge wild symbol is tripled instead of doubled.
XBET (NOLIMIT BOOSTER)
At the cost of 1.5 times the base bet, you are guaranteed a scatter symbol to land on the second reel.
XGOD
This feature means that the max win amount of 19,349 times the bet can be won at any moment, be it in the base game or bonus game.

DEAD, DEAD OR DEADER RTP (RETURN TO PLAYER) AND MAXIMUM PAYOUTS
Dead, Dead or Deader is one of only a few NoLimit City slots which has an adjustable RTP. This can range from a high of 96.09% to a low of just 84.14%
The maximum potential payout available in Dead, Dead or Deader is the same wherever you play and is set at 19,349x. This makes it one of the best paying slots released in 2025. This payout is triggered every 1.8 million spins on average.
STRATEGIES WHEN PLAYING DEAD, DEAD OR DEADER FOR REAL MONEY
The high volatility factor here means that you can quickly win or lose a lot of money. Wins are fairly hard to come by and triggering the bonus games are no guarantee of big wins in Dead, Dead or Deader. We actually recommend staying away from this slot and playing one of the better slot games.
EXTRA INFO
Dead, Dead or Deader is played on a 5×3 grid with 243 paylines. The variance/volatility level is extreme so big wins or losses are likely. The minimum bet is 20p per spin and the maximum bet is £6 per spin for British players. The main features here include the xNudge feature and there are two different free spins games.
Important information you should know here includes an adjustable RTP as well as a maximum potential payout of 19,349x. The hit frequency is 26.88% which is actually high for a NoLimit City slot. Dead, Dead or Deader was released by NoLimit City on 25/02/2025.
THE SLOTSHAWK VERDICT
“Very disappointed with Dead, Dead or Deader. A lack of features and a complete lack of exciting gameplay for this one. We recommend avoiding!”
