1000 spins on NRVNA: final review

Game maker Netent is one of the most successful developers of online slots. Just think of Jack and the Beanstalk and the great, indestructible success of Starburst.

The NRVNA slot is also from Netent. The company launched this slot machine in the summer of 2015 with a lot of tame as "the nxt xperience, In terms of final experience.

Was that right? Read more.

How does NRVNA work?

The name NRVNA refers to the Nirvana concept from Buddhism. Nirvana is a certain way of "being", namely "calm" and "enlightened". Zen.

That is in line with how the lock looks.

You play with 30 paylines. The minimum bet is € 0.01 per payline.

NRVNA has ten "illuminated" symbols. A cherry, a 7, a bell, a four-leaf clover and a horseshoe. In addition, there are the 10, J, Q, K and A.

Those ten symbols are supplemented by two cosmic clouds: an orange and a purple one.

The purple cloud serves as a joker. Combinations with a joker are tripled.

The orange cloud is the bonus symbol. If you spin three anywhere on the reels, you win 10 free spins. Four clouds are good for 15 free spins and five clouds give 20 free spins.

During the free spins, a bonus wheel appears after every spin at the top of the slot. With that you win a multiplier, extra free spins, and sometimes nothing at all.

You win a maximum of 2 free spins and / or a multiplier of x10 per spin on the bonus wheel.

It's no more, the NRVNA slot. So the slot machine is actually very simple, just as Buddha probably would have liked it.

The 1000 spins from Mr. Casino

Mr. Casino played 1000 spins on NRVNA with a bet of € 0.30 per spin.

It soon becomes apparent that NRVNA is really only about the orange and purple clouds. Apart from the clouds, there are almost no significant prizes.

The purple clouds (the jokers) are fortunately common. During the 1000 spins, Mr. Casino wins 106 times a prize with at least one joker. The highest win with jokers is € 5.70.

And the orange clouds? Mr. Casino scores six times three orange clouds and one time four orange clouds. So he can play the free spins seven times. And that is actually six times too many. Because Mr. Casino doesn't like it at all.

Playing the free spins takes far too long, because the NRVNA bonus wheel appears again after every spin.

That bonus wheel is not exciting, but annoying. You win extra free spins with it, but also during the free spins there are hardly any noteworthy prizes. So you don't have much on a multiplier.

After 1000 spins the loss is € 49.71. That too. Bareuh.

The result on NRVNA

• The loss after 1000 spins: € 49.71
• The five biggest winnings: € 9.46 / € 8.43 / € 8.27 / € 6.27 / € 6.00
• Free Spins: 7 times (average profit € 4.42)
• The payout percentage (RTP) of NRVNA is according to Netent: 96.6%

Final consideration

The NRVNA slot is very boring, says Mr Casino. Certainly not 'nxt xperience'.

You win nice amounts with the purple joker. But when three orange clouds appear on the reels, it's not your birthday yet. Then you are stuck with a boring bonus round that lasts way too long and doesn't deliver much.
