CRANK IT UP: SLOT OVERVIEW

Last Updated: July 4, 2024

Written by Stephen Cummings

Pragmatic Play are back again with another top-class slot release. This time, they are providing us with a music/nightclub themed slot with plenty of winning potential. Certainly an upbeat slot with lots of colour, anyone with an interest in a high-tempo slot with a very nice hit frequency should try playing Crank it Up by Pragmatic Play. The SlotsHawk team tests and plays Crank It Up for real money and in this Crank It Up slot review, we will explain everything you need to know about this slot so that you can identify whether you want to play this slot for real money.

CRANK IT UP: FIRST IMPRESSIONS

We are impressed by the look, feel and sounds of Crank It Up. The slot feels very modern. Additionally, the symbols are simply to recognise because it say what they are on them – the wild symbols have wild written on them, for example.

We played Crank It Up for real money on the day it was released at Casumo Casino (see video above) and played for 40p per spin. The sounds are lots of fun and the winning sounds remind us of being on a trip to the seaside playing the fruit machines by the beach. Unfortunately, this is about where the fun stopped for us. The majority of the game is spent trying to trigger the free spins round. The base game does not have a lot going for it which is disappointing. Compared to other new slot games, Crank It Up is rather basic.

Unfortunately, after ten minutes of gameplay, we did not manage to trigger the free spins game and we lost a total of £34.86. We never managed to trigger a multiplier of over 12x which was disappointing.

CRANK IT UP FEATURES

Despite its recent release, we are not impressed with the lack of features in this slot. Unfortunately, this makes the base game really rather boring. Admittedly. the bonus game is fun and there are plenty more winning combinations during the bonus round, sticky wild’s are also active during the bonus game. However, the bonus game is by no means easy to trigger.

Full List of features:

  • Free spins
  • Sticky wilds during bonus spins
  • Scatter symbols
  • Wild symbols
  • Multipliers

CRANK IT UP RETURN TO PLAYER (RTP) AND MAXIMUM PAYOUTS

Given that Crank It Up is a Pragmatic Play slot, it has an adjustable RTP rate which varies depending on which casino you play at. Crank It Up has a maximum RTP of 96%, which you can get if you play it at Casumo Casino.

The maximum payout available is 10,000x the bet, which is well-above average compared to other slot games. However, the chance of triggering this payout is rare. When we played, the highest payout we triggered was a 12x multiplier.

STRATEGIES WHEN PLAYING CRANK IT UP FOR REAL MONEY

As we have already mentioned, SlotsHawk’s first top tip is to play Crank It Up at Casumo Casino because you will be able to play at its highest possible RTP of 96%.

Like all online slot games, there are zero strategies which will guarantee wins, as they are all luck based. You should play Crank It Up if you are having fun. The SlotsHawk review team played it for around 10 minutes before we decided we were NOT having fun, so we stopped. Another tip we can offer you is that to ensure that you are playing this slot within your bankroll. Crank It Up is a high variance slot, so wins can sometimes be hard to trigger. At one point we went 10 spins without triggering even a small win. Therefore, if you have a bankroll, we recommend betting small. When we were playing we were betting the second lowest amount of 40p per spin.

EXTRA INFO

Crank It Up is played on 5 reels and 3 rows with 20 paylines and is a simple video slot to play. it has one free spins bonus game which is activated when three or more scatter symbols are matched on the reels. The minimum bet level is set at 20p per spin and the maximum bet for UK players is £12 per spin. Crank It Up was released on 04/07/2024 was is developed by Pragmatic Play.

THE SLOTSHAWK VERDICT

SlotsHawk Verdict on Crank it Up slot

“A cool theme and lots of upbeat sounds will be the first things you notice about this slot from Pragmatic Play. However, the base game is somewhat boring as you try your hardest to enter the free spins game.”
