Play San Quentin xWays

Only Nolimit City can turn doing time at one of the USA’s most notorious prisons into a game, as they have in the incredibly high volatility, grim and gritty, San Quentin xWays video slot.  

An iconic game from this niche studio, San Quentin xWays is packed with added features, and played on a classic 5x3 reel set with two locked Enhancer Rows, 243 ways to win, and an incredible max win potential of 150,000x the bet.  

If you’d like to play San Quentin xWays at talkSPORT BET Casino, you’ll need a live and funded account. If you don’t have one, you can register in a few simple steps. Click the ‘Sign Up’ button at the top of your screen and enter your details to get started.  

If you’re new to our platform, you may be eligible for our welcome bonus when adding funds for the first time. Visit our offers page for all the details and find out how to claim. You can also check out the rest of our promos while you’re there, for both our sportsbook and online casino. 

When you’re ready to proceed, return to this page and tap the game tile to launch your session. Opening the game takes you onto the wrong side of the prison walls, where the grid is surrounded by CCTV cameras and filled with inmates and their grim belongings.  

To start the game, set your wager by tapping the coin button, then, when satisfied, hit spin to play. 

The reels feature low-value inmate possessions, such as toilet paper, soap, and Zippo lighters, as well as five premium-paying inmate characters set against different-coloured tiles. These appear alongside watchtower bonus symbols and guards’ badge wilds.  

To score payline wins, you must match three or more pay symbols on consecutive reels from left to right along one of the game’s fixed paylines, scoring rewards as indicated below, based on a £1.00 stake:  

Enhancer Cells 

On the top and bottom of each reel are locked Enhancer Cell positions. When activated, they reveal one of the five top-paying symbols, wilds, Razor Split, or xWays symbols.  

• Razor Split Symbols: Split all symbols in regular positions into double cells. If the Razor Split lands in the top and bottom Enhancer Cells on the same reel at the same time, it will split them twice.  
• xWays Symbols: All reveal the same regular pay symbols and four-high stacked. When xWays appear on both active Enhancer Cells on the same reel at the same time, the entire reel is covered by eight single wilds.  

Bonus Symbols 

In the base game, the bonus symbol can land on any reel and in Lockdown Spins only on reels with unopened Enhancer Cells.  

When you land one or two bonus symbols in the base game, they turn into wilds and open the Enhancer Cells on their reels. Landing three or more bonus symbols will award Lockdown Spins.  

Split Wilds 

In the base game, Split Wilds can land on any reel. When they do, they will split all the regular symbols on the same reel. Split Wilds themselves remain intact.  

Lockdown Spins 

Landing three, four, or five bonus symbols in the base game awards the Lockdown Spins bonus with one, two, or three Jumping Wilds.  

The Enhancer Cells on the reels of the bonus will remain open and active throughout the feature, maintaining the same behaviour as in the main game. Before the feature starts, the number of spins and a special symbol multiplier are assigned.  

Landing a bonus symbol in Lockdown Spins awards another Jumping Wild and additional spins. The number of spins is determined by the values revealed in the opened Enhancer Cells, either one, two, or three.  

On the reels where the bonus symbols landed, inmate mystery symbols can land, awarding multipliers to random symbols.  

Inmate mystery symbols can reveal one of the five top-paying inmate symbols or a Jumping Wild. The Jumping Wild will start with the given multiplier, which acts as a payout multiplier for the symbol. 

If your win total reaches the 150,000x max win, the bonus game will immediately end, and you will receive your winnings. 

Jumping Wilds 

Jumping Wilds appear with win multipliers and jump to different positions on each spin. When a Jumping Wild lands on the reels with the Razor Split enhancer, it will double its multiplier, which sticks for the remainder of the bonus. A maximum of three Jumping Wilds can be active during any one bonus game.
