Year of the Rat

4.4 out of 5 stars.
Year of the Rat is a 3-row, 5-reels slot game by Qora Games that comes with 50 paylines. The game’s theme and name are inspired by the Lunar Calendar of 2020, the year that it was developed, which was supposedly the year of the Rat zodiac. Rats on this festive-themed game are gathering their riches back to their abode, and anyone who seeks them is sure to fill their pockets with big fortunes.
The game is known for its progressive multiplier free spin bonus, which is also the highlight of the game. In the bonus round, multipliers start at 2x for any win and keep increasing each time a Double Wild land on the reels. The Double Wilds on the game are Firecrackers that explode on the reel, and they are called so because they always pay double of your wild win payouts.
Year of the Rat also features special Scatter symbols, landing 3, 4, or 5 of which can trigger 12, 15, and 20 free spins respectively. The progressive multipliers and free-spins triggers are limitless, which makes the game fun and rewarding at the same time. Year of the Rat has an RTP of 96% and the maximum payouts can go up to 2400 times your stake.

Presented by Qora Games, Year of the Rat is a 3-row, 5-reels slot game based on the festive theme of the Lunar Calendar Year. 2020, the year the game was launched, was also the Year of the Rat Zodiac according to the calendar. The slot game, therefore, revolves around the quirky theme of rats gathering their riches back to their abode. Anyone who seeks these riches can fill their pockets with massive fortunes.
The slot game features progressive multipliers and free spins, which can be triggered limitlessly. The multipliers begin from 2x for any win and keep increasing each time a Double Wild land on the reels. The double wilds on the game are Firecrackers that explode on the reel and are named so because when one or more Double Wilds substitutes in pay, that pay gets doubled. They appear on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5, and are wild for all symbols except Scatters.
During free spins, each Double Wild symbol appearing on the reels is collected. Each collected Double Wild increases the multiplier by 1 for all subsequent free spins – progressive multipliers. However, Double Wilds that appear on the last free spins are not collected, and there is no increase in multipliers thereon.
Year of the Rat also allows players to win 12, 15, or 20 free spins upon landing 3, 4, and 5 Scatter symbols respectively anywhere on the reels. Besides the wilds and scatters, there are several other unique symbols in the game. The Ingot, Red Envelopes, Gold Coins, and Oranges are the high-paying symbols on the game, while the letters A, K, Q, J, and 10 are the low-paying ones. The Ingot is the highest-paying symbol, rewarding players with 2500 coins for landing 5 symbols on the reels, 500 for 4, 50 for 3, and 10 for just 2.
Year of the Rat has an RTP of 96% and bets ranging from 0.50 to 100 per spin. Payouts vary depending on wins and bet sizes, going up to 2400x the stake. Built on HTML5 technology, Year of the Rat can be played across desktops, laptops, and mobile phones in different languages. The game is Rad+ enabled and comes with an innovative loyalty coin bonus ecosystem that is a trademark across all Radi8 games.
