Duck Hunters

About Duck Hunters

Duck Hunters is a scatter pays slot from Nolimit City, set on a 6x5 grid with cascading wins and position multipliers that build through the spin. Wins form when eight or more matching symbols land anywhere on the grid, regardless of position. Each winning position picks up a 2x multiplier, which doubles every time that position contributes to another win in the same cascade.

The game has an RTP of 94% in the version available at Midnite, very high volatility, and a maximum win of 30,000x your bet. The bonus structure runs across three Free Spins tiers (Duck Hunt, Hawk Eye, and Big Game Spins) each adding more upgrades than the last.

How to Play Duck Hunters

The grid is 6 reels wide and 5 rows tall, with no fixed paylines. Wins are paid on a scatter pays basis: land eight or more of the same paying symbol anywhere on the grid and you get paid, with bigger clusters paying more.

Stakes at Midnite range from £0.20 up to £5 per spin. Set your bet using the coin icon at the bottom of the screen and hit spin. When a win lands, the matching symbols are removed and new symbols drop down to fill the empty spaces. Each empty position picks up a 2x multiplier that stays in place for the rest of the cascade sequence. If a position contributes to another winning cluster, its multiplier doubles, with a theoretical ceiling of 8,192x per position.

Position multipliers carry into the Free Spins round when the bonus is triggered, so building a strong base-game cascade can pay off across the entire feature.

Duck Hunters Features

The bonus structure pulls together several Nolimit City signature mechanics on top of the scatter pays system.

• Scatter Pays: Wins are formed by landing eight or more matching symbols anywhere on the grid. Adjacent positioning is not required.
• Position Multipliers: Each position contributing to a win is marked with a 2x multiplier. If the same position wins again during the cascade, the multiplier doubles, going up to a theoretical 8,192x per position.
• Wild Symbol: The wild substitutes for all paying symbols. It does not substitute for the bonus hunting symbol.
• xWays: When an xWays symbol lands, it transforms into a regular paying symbol stack and adds a 2x, 4x, or 8x multiplier boost to that position.
• Infectious xWays: An upgraded version that triggers during certain Free Spins tiers. When one xWays symbol reveals a paying symbol, every other instance of that symbol on the grid is also affected and expands.
• Bomb: When a Bomb symbol lands, it clears all paying symbols in a 3x3 area around it and doubles the position multipliers in the affected zone before new symbols drop in.
• Duck Hunt Spins: Three bonus symbols trigger 7 free spins with one randomly selected upgrade (Upgraded xWays, Upgraded Bomb, or Extra +2 Shots).
• Hawk Eye Spins: Four bonus symbols trigger 8 free spins with two randomly selected upgrades.
• Big Game Spins: Five bonus symbols trigger 10 free spins with all three upgrades active.
• +1 Shot Symbol: During Free Spins, landing a +1 Shot symbol adds an extra spin to the round. The Extra +2 Shots upgrade replaces this with a +2 version.
• Bonus Buy and Boosters: Players in eligible regions can pay an additional cost to increase the chance of triggering Free Spins, or buy directly into a specific tier. Buy features may not be available in all jurisdictions.

Duck Hunters Theme and Symbols

The setting leans into a backwoods hunting aesthetic, with a wetland background, autumnal colours, and a cast of bearded characters in camo gear.

Lower-paying symbols on the grid are different coloured shotgun shells, while higher-paying symbols are the bearded hunter characters themselves. The wild is rendered as a Nolimit City badge symbol, and the bonus hunting symbol triggers the Free Spins tiers based on how many land.

The xWays symbol, the Bomb, and the +1 Shot symbol round out the special set, each with distinct artwork to keep the bonus mechanics easy to read.

Is Duck Hunters Worth Playing?

This may suit players who like Nolimit City's scatter pays and cascading multiplier format and want a slot with a high ceiling on individual position multipliers. The structure rewards long cascades, where positions can pick up doubling multipliers that carry into the Free Spins round.

Players who prefer steadier base-game returns or fixed-payline slots will find the format demanding. The three Free Spins tiers do most of the heavy lifting on win potential, and the Bomb feature plus position multiplier doubling combine to produce the slot's biggest payouts. Players who liked Sugar Rush by Pragmatic Play will find some structural similarities here, layered with Nolimit City's xWays and Infectious xWays mechanics.

Multipliers reset between spins in the base game but persist throughout the Free Spins round.
