Push Gaming combines classic experience with modern gameplay in its brand new slot Hearts Highway

Push Gaming, one of the fastest-rising software providers in the iGaming industry, presents its brand new online slot Hearts Highway.

The word is about a classic title that takes inspiration from old-school one-armed bandits but in combination with an innovative mechanic, offering a great gaming experience for both retro and modern players.

A classic slot dressed up in a modern suit

Push Gaming pays homage to classic slots while delivering a variety of bonus features that include Instant Wins, Bonus Round and Mini Feature.

The action takes place across a 5×3 grid with 20 fixed paylines. Retro symbols include fruits; lemons, grapes, watermelons and cherries, which can bring up to 3.5x the bet for 5 of a kind.

The strongest symbols of the slot are green and blue double BARs, golden bells and, of course, Red Lucky 7s. The highest-paying symbol of the slot can bring up to 30x the bet for a combination of 5.

The first deviation from retro slot machines is represented by Wilds. The Diamond symbol is a Wild – it can substitute all regular symbols of the slot thus helping them achieve a winning combo.

Red Heart symbols bring Instant Wins, as follows:

• Landing 4 Red Heart symbols pays 2x the bet
• Landing 5 Red Heart symbols pays 5x the bet
• Landing 6 Red Heart symbols pays 10x the bet
• Landing 7 Red Heart symbols pays 25x the bet
• Landing 8 Red Heart symbols pays 100x the bet
• Landing 9 Red Heart symbols pays 1,000x the bet
• Landing 10 Red Heart symbols pays 10,000x the bet (which is the biggest possible win of the slot)

During the base game, Slot Machine symbols can also appear on reels 1 and 5. The mini feature is triggered when slot machine symbols appear at the same time as red heart symbols. During the mini feature, a new reel will spin and the win is based on the number of red heart symbols landed.

Wait, there is more!

The Bonus symbol is a Scatter. Landing 3 or more scatters anywhere on the reels triggers the Bonus Round.

During the bonus feature, Golden Heart symbols can appear on reels 2, 3 and 4. Landed golden heart symbols are collected into the GoldenHeart Meter located above the reels and then will be replaced with Red Heart symbols. When 3 Golden Heart symbols are collected, an additional spin is awarded and the respective reel below will be filled with red heart symbols for the duration of the feature, promising bigger wins!

Hearts Highway is a perfect fusion of nostalgia and innovation, making it a good choice for both classic and modern players. It comes with an RTP of 96.44%, which is above average. Let’s hear a few words from the reps:

Amit Samji, Head of Studio at Push Gaming, said: “Hearts Highway builds upon the success of last year’s popular game 10 Swords which also benefitted from an incrementally increasing prize ladder, climbed by landing a variety of symbols. Within this iteration, we have enhanced the mechanics present to deliver a multitude of possibilities that provide increased replay ability.

“Presented within a theme that will appeal to fans of classic slots, modern mechanics will prove to be a draw for more contemporary slot enthusiasts. The addition of the Action Replay tool will further enhance the experience and we’re confident players will adore Hearts Highway.”
