BRUTE FORCE: SLOT OVERVIEW
Last Updated: October 14, 2024Written by Stephen Cummings
One of the most straightforward NoLimit City have released for a long time, Brute Force is now our number one recommended slot if you are looking for a simple slot with ‘insane’ volatility.
BRUTE FORCE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS
As soon as the game loads you will be treated to retro video game style music – great for those of you who grew up playing video games in the 90s! After undergoing a little bit of research, we decided to take advantage of the xBet feature, which, when used, makes triggering the free spins bonus game 10x more likely.
We began by betting the minimum of 20p per spin, when combined with the xBet feature this made our total bet per spin to £0.94. We triggered 10 Brute Spins on our second spin when we landed three scatter symbols. Disappointingly, only two of the 10 spins won any money and we ended the round with a total win of just £2.80.
Just a few spins later, we hit 4 scatter symbols to trigger the Super Brute Spins. During Super Brute Spins, the xNudge symbols can be sticky. We took full advantage of this – our 10 spins granted us a win of £196 and this was after only six minutes of playing.
We kept playing and we soon hit another Brute Spins game, this went so much better than the first – we hit a win here of £161.55! Talk about a big different in wins between two bonus games! We went on to trigger our fourth free spins bonus, unfortunately this one was a little more like the first bonus and we only won £2.35.
Brute Force is a lot of fun because it feels like hitting the bonus game is never too far away. Our session booked us a total win of £225.29.
BRUTE FORCE SLOT FEATURES
Brute Force does not have as many features as many other NoLimit City slot games. However, we feel that the features complement each other very well here.
XBET
The xBet feature in Brute Force ensures that triggering the bonus game is 10 times more likely as it guarantees a scatter symbol on the second reel. This costs 4.7 times the base bet.
XNUDGE WILDS
There are three different types of xNudge Wilds and they always nudge to cover the full reel. Full details below:
- Joshua xNudge® Wild – Each nudge increases the win multiplier value by +1 and the maximum multiplier value can be awarded is 8x.
- Jason xNudge® Wild – Each nudge increases the win multiplier value by +2 and the maximum multiplier value can be awarded is 21x.
- Hyper xNudge® Wild – Each nudge increases the win multiplier value by +5 and the maximum multiplier value can be awarded is 51x.
When we played, we matched several Joshua xNudge Wilds on a single spin and they all increased our multiplier.
XNUDGE METER
This summarises the total number of multipliers from any one spin.
BRUTE SPINS AND SUPER BRUTE SPINS
Landing three scatters will trigger 10 Brute Spins. Landing four scatters will trigger 10 Super Brute Spins. In the latter, the xNudge Wilds become sticky.
Full List of Features:
- Free spins
- Bonus game
- Sticky xNudge
- xNudge wilds
- xBet

BRUTE FORCE RETURN TO PLAYER (RTP) AND MAXIMUM PAYOUTS
Two important characteristics of Brute Force are its RTP and maximum payouts/multipliers. Brute Force has an RTP of 96.08%, which is slightly above the industry average.
The maximum potential payout in Brute Force is a 40,000x multiplier, which is far-above average when compared to other slot games in the UK.
STRATEGIES WHEN PLAYING BRUTE FORCE FOR REAL MONEY
Certainly the number one recommendation we have here based on our own experience of playing for real money is to utilise the xBet feature. This ensures the bonus game is 10 times easier to trigger and Brute Force is a slot which has a good hit frequency of over 20%.
If you bet the minimum of 20p per spin and then add the xBet feature, your total bet is 94p per spin.
We can also recommend playing Brute Force at Casumo Casino where new players will receive a slots bonus when making a first deposit.
EXTRA INFO
Brute Force is played on a 5-5-5-5-5 grid with 21 paylines. The volatility is ‘insane‘ which means that Brute Force is one of the highest volatility slots in the UK. The minimum bet is 20 per spin and the maximum bet is £2.80 per spin. However, if you use the xBet feature with the maximum bet then you will be playing for £13.16 per spin. The RTP is 96.08% and the maximum potential payout is 40,000x. The maximum win probability is 1 in 41m spins and the free spins will be triggered approximately 1 in 291 spins. Although we triggered four bonus games within 100 spins.
Brute Force was released on 8/10/2024 by NoLimit City.
